I think about myself too, about how much I've changed through the years, how once I felt everything didn't go the way I wanted, and how I used to be a totally different person that I can barely recognize now. Looking at myself today has taught me that who you were yesterday can't be the same "you" today, and I've come to realize that growing up and maturing also means leaving behind many parts of who you once were. Change has taught me how someone can become almost unrecognizable, and how the people who say they "know you" may no longer truly know who you are anymore. And that's not something you shouldn't accept, but rather part of allowing yourself to change so you can also grow.
