Who I was

There is always a word to describe someone. It's either someone defined it to you or you made it that way.

Before anything, I was a daughter first. Then I became a friend, but I also became a brat. I became a student then a best friend. These were all descriptions from others to me. The first description I gave to myself was a dancer. Dancing was all I wanted to do when I was a child, but that wasn't acceptable because I became the smart-ass achiever. And apparently, one can't be smart and dance. So for a long time, I was defined by others. I was a leader, a friend, and the pretentious skinny white girl. It was in high school that I started defining myself. I became a lyrist, a singer, a best friend, a girl friend and a counselor.

But when college came, I was only left with a daughter, a friend, a best friend, a girl friend and a student who wasn't so great with architecture. I'm not who I was years ago, and so are you. I figured out who I was back then but once the foundation of who I was disappeared, I was back to start. I don't know where I'm going or what I'm supposed to do. I don't know who I am because everything that I was is all gone. So if anybody is finding who they were or who they are right now, you are not alone. I wish we could all find out.
