Hair begins to grow in unusual places and a point of view begins to change. Once uninhibited and carefree, we are now shy and awkward. Unsure of ourselves, just like when we first learned to walk. At first we must crawl into adulthood. We try to muddle our way through, but often we fall down. When we were children, we had no concept of shame, now one misstep can leave long lasting emotional scars. So we try our best to become the people others expect us to be, and yet sometimes we lose our true selves and may never again find who we really are or who we were truly meant to be.
