What does finding yourself even mean? Is it different to different people, or is it a universal thing? What part of you does it relate to: your personality, your physicality, your psychology, your beliefs, your opinions? Or is it all of those and more?

When I stand in front of a mirror, I’m not sure what I see. I can tell you my name and my date of birth. But sometimes I feel as if that is all I know for sure about myself.

Me

I find it hard being myself,
after years feeling that I
should be like everyone else.
When so many voices tell you
what they think you should be,
it's hard to stand up and say
"No, that's not me".
