Why is it that we're meant to know what we want to be and the type of person we want to be with, before we've even worked out exactly who we are? I turned my back on so many opportunities, experiences and life routes. I spend most of my life trying to look like I knew what I was doing, act 'mature', be the grown-up. I wish I'd spent more time being free, seeing adventure, doing things wrong instead of trying to control everything so much. I wish I hadn't tried to live my life by ticking things off a to-do list and just focus on to-day instead. Maybe when I would have been more ready for the grown-up stuff when it came along so much sooner than I expected. I know you're not meant to have regrets, but that's mine.
