When I look in the mirror, I know I see a different person than what everyone else sees. I see beauty; someone who knows their true colors inside and out. I see kindness; someone who Is always there in any situation to lend a helping hand. I see strength; someone who has been through many obstacles in life and has overcome them, leading them to be a better person. I see forgiveness; someone who always finds a way in their heart to let things go, but never to forget.

I walk around feeling invincible. In the past few years I have witnessed things a normal sixteen year old girl should never go through. These situations have built me up to believe that I am capable of getting through anything that comes my way. I have had struggle, insecurities, and heartbreak. What I have been through in my past has had an effect on who I am now, and it will effect who I am in the future. However, it will not have a bad effect, it will only have good.

My grandfather was basically the only real dad I ever had. He was the only “dad” who ever bought me things and was there to listen to whatever I had to say, always there to help me. My grandfather just passed away on August 4th this year. It is the hardest thing I have ever had to go through. I am lost and feel like I have no one I can trust. He was my superman. No matter what happened he could always make it better. I now have to be strong for myself and for my Grandma because I promised him I would be there for her, and that I would make him proud. I sat by his side until he took his last breath, and now I will do any and everything I can to make him proud, and I will do that until I take my last breath.

My mother and I have never had a relationship. I have went the last several years feeling alone and un important. She has put me down, screamed, doubted me, criticized me, and judged me as long as I can remember. All my life I have done nothing but try to make her proud. However, no matter what I do, she tells me that I am embarrassing and makes me feel worthless. I feel like I’m not a good enough daughter for her, even though I try to be. I am always trying to please her and she never accepts me. As oddly as it sounds, I have already had my first heart break. I am almost seventeen years old and have been with the same person since age
