Getting To Know Me Essay

Throughout the past of my childhood, I have transitioned to be the person I feel most proud and comfortable being. The insecurities of finding who I am, has made it more clearly for me to be happy with myself. To someone who was shy yet hyper, to someone who is calm yet loud, our past, present, and future experiences will define us.

I remember a memory of myself quite clearly that I have trouble with picturing myself as now, is that I was a very dramatic performer. I would always put in shows for my family to watch. I would do anything from singing or acting. It was what I enjoyed most. As hard as it seems that a young, spontaneous girl like me would be shy it was absolutely true. Inside of school, I was super shy and quiet and would never engage in any social activity. I feared people; I very much feared the idea of being judged and not fitting in. Therefore, I missed many opportunities to bring my inner lioness out. I don't as much regret it, but I wished I had known to worry about myself and to be happy, if I had done things where I enjoyed doing it. I would've made school and transferring to high school easier. 

After all my amazing childhood memories, I learned a lot about myself. I am immensely proud of the person I have become. After trying to fit in, I now truly understand that when they say the key to life is happiness, it actually means to go the things you love doing and to open your eyes to new found

 opportunities. The person I am now is someone who can control their feelings and see things from a different perspective. I am a lot more dedicated and passionate about doing things that mean a lot to me. I have built up a voice I have been hiding for years, and learn to use it to open myself up and to speak out. Although I am a passionate person, I am quiet. I only speak when I have something to say otherwise I like to reserved and to myself. I have made many friends and became very social. Socializing would have to be the main factor that has contributed to my success of being happy. When I talked to people about things I wanted to learn, I got so many amazing answers that had me craving for more. I am proud of myself for being open and to communicate better. The person I wish to become in the future as I get older is one of sophistication and intelligence in the way I speak and carry myself. I want an aura of strength, and to be looked upon as a role model. To be successful and happy with what I do and with whom I am. I am very happy with how I have grown to be. It takes a lot of courage and experience, most definitely too really change yourself for the better good. I wish to see myself develop as a stronger and more passionate person.
