I’m stronger than I ever thought,
I’m more outgoing than I imagined,
I’m braver than ever thought possible,
I’m independent but I
still need people,
And I’m really becoming me.
I always wanted to be something my dad would be proud of and
maybe that fact was the very thing holding me back from discovering who I
really am. I see now that my dad loved me, not for who I tried to be but for
who I was. And now that I am going on finding myself figuring out who I really
have always been, I’ve realized that some of the things I did was just a little
bit of who I was. Moving 20 hours away from the only town I had called home was
so scary to me, even though I never showed it. I cried at the thought of
leaving my siblings and friends behind, but I knew in my heart that it was what
God had planned. Now I’m here and I found friends that I couldn’t imagine my
life being without, and I’m seeing my true personality come out. I’m still
discovering who I am but I have a better grasp on my life now than I did then.
