Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

I agree with most of her point of views. Monica is someone who is insightful. She takes a few steps back and analyze the society with a new look, and in a mature way.

To a very Large extent I could connect spiritual and philosophical view maybe because I could relate to much to her story.

I am in complete agreement with Monica's philosophy of self-reliance. I believe that if you want something done the right way, you must do it yourself. I trust myself.

Yes, I connected with Monica’s philosophical views in They Love You Until You Start Thinking for Yourself. Her emphasis on open-mindedness, cultural empathy, and challenging societal norms resonated deeply. She encourages readers to embrace diverse perspectives and think independently, which I found both inspiring and thought-provoking.
