After rewriting this for weeks I have finally settled on this version. Hope you enjoy!

                                                                     November 5th, 2002. 

                                                              A day treated like every other. 

1. What time were you born? 

2. Who are your parents?

3. How'd you get your name?

4. Why did your parents give you up?

5. How many foster homes did you go to?

6. How did you get adopted?

7. What do you want to be when you grow up?

8. What is your purpose in life?

These questions all have the same answer: I don't know. 

No two lives are the exact same. No two people are the exact same. We all have our faults, but with those come our stars.

My faults:

1. I'm annoying

2. I'm ungrateful

3. I ruin peoples lives

4. I'm a liar

5. I trust too easily

6. I fall too hard for the wrong people

7. I don't think about others

8. Everything is all about me

I have been told those things and so much more...

But with those faults are my stars that sometimes shine brighter than my faults:

1. If I love something I love it with all my heart

2. Some say I'm pretty

3. I do my best to please everyone

4. I can easily make friends with almost anyone

Maybe some more...

Some people don't let themselves see my stars and sometimes I don't but it's the faults in our stars that make us who we are.

I don't know much about myself if anything at all, but does anyone know every little detail about themselves or is that our goal: to find who we are. It's through our experiences that we find ourselves.
