Fathom (noun) ; understand (a difficult problem or an enigmatic person) after much thought*
I turned to page eight, and the word struck to my eyes like a magnet. Fathom. It was hard to fathom I would be where I am now. When I was born, I am certain my mother could never fathom that I would struggle this much throughout life. But I am. When I was eight and fell down, I never could fathom that the scrape on my knee would heal back to normal. But it did. When I was in middle school, I never could fathom I would fit in anywhere or make any friends. But I did. All throughout life, I never could fathom that I would ever accept myself. But I have. Why are we doubting ourselves so much throughout life, when all it does time after time is bring us down? The cure to all of our problems is fathoming.
