I Have To Try

So, I've been thinking a lot recently. I've been thinking about the person that I used to be; the person that I am; and the person that I want to be. It's all very confusing.

I used to be the kind of person who spoke my mind and stood up for what I believed in; I used to be the kind of person who cherished my individuality; I used to be the kind of person who thought that following my heart was an infinitely better option than following the crowd.

I know that I am not that person any more. I have no idea when I became someone else. I have no idea if I can become the person that I want to be. What I do know is that I have to try.

Obstinate Pursuit

My great mistake, the fault for which I can't forgive myself, is that one day I ceased my obstinate pursuit of my own individuality.
