I've learned more about myself in the two years since I started doing research for my son than I had learned about myself in the previous two decades. I find it fascinating that it took becoming a parent for me to understand so much of myself.
This journey has also given me a new appreciation of psychology. I never took a single psych course in college, so I was floored to find article after article on gifted psychology that described me to a T. There are some pieces that I even hesitated to share with my husband, because they reveal too much! It's disturbing to discover how predictably I've behaved all these years, when all the time I thought I was acting on my own free will.
