I am Not

I am not someone who steps out of their comfort zone.

For I am shy.

I am not someone who would speak out in class.

For I am embarrassed of what others will think.

I am not someone who likes to meet new people. 

For I am comfortable with the people I know now.

I am not someone who expresses their feelings. 

For I think I will be seen as dramatic.

 

I want to be someone who takes chances.

To learn from every experience. 

I want to be someone who inspires others. 

To set a good example.

I want to be someone who lives with no regrets.

To live life to the absolute fullest.

I want to be someone who goes out and explores the world.

To have a story to tell.

 

I am someone who is independent and self-determined,

and I am proud of.

I am someone who stays true to themselves,

and I encourage everyone to do.

I am someone who doesn't believe in excuses,

And its what I live by.

I am someone who strives to get better everyday,

and I'll continue for as long as I live.
