Hello, I'm putting myself on the grid. I'm insecure, awkward, and in no way aesthetically pleasing, but my mind is wonderfully adventurous. I'm not comfortable with who I am but I know exactly who I want to be. I have been through my trials and tribulations and I know there will be more to come. I'm still young, my future is long and staring me straight in the face. So many opportunities and so many places to go but where to start is the problem. Once you start going you can't stop but knowing where to start is near impossible. That is where I am. The starting point. I will make mistakes, I will fall on my face, and I will find the wrong people but that's where I learn. That's where I start. Do not start to define who I am based where I am now. I will not be the same person later in life but that doesn't mean that I am changing to be fake, that just means I am changing to be the person I want to be. Eventually I will grow into my own skin, I will learn to love the skin I am in, and stand up with pride and confidence and be able to bare my skin to the world. Today is not that day, but that is ok. I am growing. It is a process. This is about me. This is who I am now and this is who I will be. I don't care about your opinion. I care about mine and if I'm happy with the way I am. You don't have to say anything. You don't have to like me. I do. I have to live and learn to love me. So, here I am. At the starting point. Learning to love and to change. For me.
