One morning, you'll look in the mirror and realize you've changed - not just in the way you look, but in the way you think, love, and dream. The things that once consumed you will feel distant, and the people you once couldn't imagine life without will only be memories. You'll notice your priorities shifting, your boundaries strengthening, and your heart learning when to open and when to guard itself. And while part of you may mourn who you used to be, a bigger part will feel proud. You're no longer trying to fit into the life you thought you wanted - you're creating the one you truly need.
