You are 23. You have a whole life to look forward to and this is an excellent time to learn and grow. I swear I had no idea who I was until I was 30, and even then, everyday I'm finding something new about myself.

I hope in 8 months, you look at this post again and just say wow. Not in a good way or a bad way, just admiring how far you've come. And don't forget to stop and smell the roses along the way.
