• Are you the person you’d thought you’d be at this age? Why or why not?

  The difference in the person I am, and the person I had thought I would be when I was younger would probably be a big surprise, but a good surprise. I was a shy kid, who had this idea in her head that the future would make everything easier. I’d be this carefree, yet strong woman who practically lived in coffeehouses, loved and was loved fiercely, did whatever her passions drove her towards, and went on adventures. I’ve done all those things. But, it took a lot of changing and growing in ways that many people are too afraid to think about. I’ve had to go through a lot of pain and pick up a lot of scars, and constantly be reborn. To the point that, when people see me that haven’t seen me in a long time, they are surprised themselves. For a while I thought I was fake, that I was invisible and an emotional wreck, that everyone looked at me and saw a prude. I became who I am because I was frustrated with these things, and sought to change myself from the inside out. I kept doing this, and doing this, until I was satisfied. I am the goddess of evolution. As a result, I keep growing, and I’ll keep re-defining who I am, and it will all be beautiful.
