“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”
― George Bernard Shaw

I wish I would have been told this at the  start of my teenage years. "You are only what you make of yourself, so work hard to become someone wonderful.

I have been observing people. Remarkably, there are so many of them that are just like me. I'm not the only one facing the problems I do, living with the shortcomings that I have, looking the way I do. I am just like other individuals, great or puny, and I am united through the good and the bad, by a rule nobody seems to know anymore.
