Why Do People Who Overcome Hardships Become Quiet? It's Like a Ship...

Why do people who have overcome hardships become quieter? Well, it's like this, imagine a ship sailing on the sea. Every time the ship gets damaged, they replace the broken parts with new ones. But what happens when every single part of the ship has been replaced? Is it still the same ship as before? \n\nWell, when someone goes through tough times, it's like sailing on that ship. They encounter all sorts of damage and have to replace the broken parts. Friends might make them change their loyalty, classmates might make them change their friendship, family might make them change their dependence, and neighbors might make them change their enthusiasm. And when their partner leaves, they have to change their faithfulness too. \n\nBesides that, there might be other damages. Maybe they lose their job, lack skills, have a low education, struggle socially, or feel inferior. When they finally overcome those tough times and reach the other side of the sea, they've basically changed everything they could, just like the ship. But are they still the same person as before? \n\nThey are stronger now, with more abilities and resources. But they are also more broken, without any illusions about the world. People who have overcome hardships are not silent because they lack words. No, they are silent because they have let go of their illusions and are ready to fight.
