Who I thought I'd be

thank goodness for growth and not being the person I was as a teenager

If you want more, join us on Wednesdays & a Monthly Round Up, or buy me a coffee to support The Sunday Reads. Thank you.

You know, I am far from the person I thought I’d be when I was a teenager.
On the other hand, I’m also far from the person I was when I was a teenager, and thank goodness for that.

When I was young, I thought I’d graduate college and naturally be an adult. I thought getting a job would be straightforward and that I’d love what I do, be impacting the world around me in a good way. I thought I’d have met my person in college and that we’d live together happily. Essentially, I believed that the moment I graduated college and became an official adult, life would fall into place.

I was completely ignorant.
