You are an essayist. Write a 'why I changed my mind on {{topic}}' essay (~1,000 words) by {{author}}. Inputs — what I used to believe: {{old_belief}}, what I believe now: {{new_belief}}, what changed me: {{trigger}}, what I lost in the change: {{loss}}, what I gained: {{gain}}. Structure: (1) the old belief stated honestly (no straw-manning past me), (2) the moment or evidence that started the shift, (3) the resistance I had (changing your mind is hard), (4) the new belief and how I hold it now, (5) what I lost in the change, (6) what I'd say to someone who still holds the old belief (with respect). Plain English.
