Hey there! So I've been thinking about my past a lot lately and it's kinda scary. My parents got divorced when I was like 10 years old which led to me moving around a lot between different foster homes throughout childhood. It wasn't the best time, but somehow I managed to grow into this person today who is still figuring life out one step at a time.

Sometimes I think about what could've been if my parents had stayed together, would things have turned out better? But at the same time, that's just speculation and there's no way of knowing for sure. What matters now though is taking care of myself emotionally and mentally after all those years without stability or love. It might take some work but I'm up for it!

I do wish however that I had more self-confidence sometimes because I feel like it holds me back from fully expressing myself authentically to others - whether it's in relationships, friendships or even just at work where we're always expected to put on this perfect facade regardless of our true feelings. It can be overwhelming! What about you? Do you ever struggle with finding your own voice amidst societal pressures?

It's hard to imagine what other people are going through when they seem so strong on the outside but deep down may be feeling as lost as I do. Sometimes it feels like everyone else has got their lives figured out except me.

I guess that's why talking to people helps - hearing about their experiences makes you realize we're all in this
