Wise words. That you've come to the realization that, no, you never DO wake up one day having it all figured out, is a well-earned prize, even if it feels like anything but -- it's the first step on the road to acceptance of ourselves and our imperfections, and gratitude for what we have, where we've been, how far we've come. A beautiful reflection. Happy birthday, there's so much ahead of you!
The circular quality of this piece serves only to strengthen it. Each of your words feels carefully chosen and crafted, with a great measure of intention behind them.

I love this poem so much! It was recently my birthday, and I was feeling really nostalgic about growing up. I couldn't stop thinking about the future and how it would turn out. But you really put my feelings into words. It just means we should cherish the time we have now. Happy Birthday! :)
"Maybe this is what growing into being an adult is- feeling more like a child than you ever have, even when you were one." I love this line so much. When I was younger I tried to act and think like an adult. Now that I'm older, I feel younger than I actually am, and I try to value my youth more.
You should truly go for her, if this is about M, she'll be lucky to have you
