Turning 18 may be big to some people...but to others it's a day where you think to yourself "Wow...this is really it...I'm on my own from here." Trying to remember everything your parents taught you...but your mind goes blank.
Becoming an adult is a big thing...but it's also very scary. There's just so much responsibility and so much that needs to get done. My mom has made it look so easy...but it's really not. But the only reason why I know I can make it in this world is because my mom said I could. My mom told me that I could be anything I wanted to be when I grew up. She taught me everything I would need to in order to survive.
So I'm going to live my life...just like she's living her's. And learn from the mistakes I make as an adult. And honestly I hope I make quite a few...because that way next time...I know what to do instead of make another mistake. So here's to the beginning of an adult life...may it bring me peace and understanding. :)
