Today is my 18th birthday. I personally believed I wouldn't make it this far but I did. I'm strong. I'm happy. I'm proud. I went through many rough patches... but I got through it all! I hope and want only the best for myself going this year... I'm going to make 18 my year. I'll finally be free, to make friends, to be myself, everything is an open book. I look back on my childhood... good and bad... it may have been rough.. but now... I don't care... I still feel those years were lost... but I have my whole life ahead of me :') I'm still in disbelief that i'm 18... I didn't want to be just yet but... i'm hopeful I'm an adult... I got this... I will fly free <3 I'm starting a whole new chapter and era of my life
