Moved how?

But I agree, a flag wouldn't have changed my internal turmoil. It took years of consistent and intentional actions and redirection. I still have low days of course, who doesn't? Pain and discomfort is a part of the human experience.

Not everyone. You are justified. I always think of this scene from As Good As It Gets, when Jack Nicholson talks about how a lot of peoples' stories are all good times, noodle salad. It's a way old movie, but I still really love it.

I love that movie (and specifically that scene) as well! I think that's definitely true, there are people who have great enjoyable lives and its all noodle salad, but even they have bad days and tough times. Every person that has ever lived has felt some level of pain, but certainly some muh less than others.
