I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but honestly that sounds really peaceful and almost cocoon-like. Not to say that my experience (00-13) was much different, but I feel like I've always imbued everything with a cosmic significance for as long as I can remember. It sounds nice to perceive your life in such a grounded, mellow way.
I was definitely lucky to be in such a school and community. I think you could reasonably say that I was sheltered, and in many ways, I still am. But I think it was good that both my family and school were relatively peaceful and stable for me during my childhood, and it makes me really sad that school is a source of trauma and stress for people -- to me, part of the deep appeal of leftism is that I'd like everyone to grow up in such a peaceful environment, not just dummies like me who lucked out.
