The main reason it took me forever to change my personality for the better and mature is because of the fact that I have a moderate case of Asperger's Syndrome.
As many of you already know, people with Asperger's often have an aversion to change of all kinds and I was no exception. I stuck to the same schedule every day, watched the same few shows, listened to the same few bands, never even opened my mind to trying out any new hobbies or lifestyles, and was so insistent on keeping every day the same.
But as I grew older and thought more about it, I realized that change is beneficial for everyone in life. So this year in particular, I've decided to try the hardest to become a better person I've ever tried in my entire life. Because now that I'm 19-years-old, it's the perfect time to start thinking about those things.
I'm not a kid anymore but at the same time, I'm not quite a full grown adult either. I'm right there in between childhood and early adulthood so I figured if there's anytime to start thinking more and more about my future it would be this year.
As devastated as I saw last year when singer Troy Gentry passed away, the last song he ever wrote was one of the things that truly inspired me to change the way I am this year. Troy himself may be gone but through his final song, his words have helped motivate me to never give up, always be opened to new ideas, and as the song title says become a better me:
I'll never be completely perfect but that's okay because nobody is. All human beings have their own flaws and I'm no exception. I'm still not sure where I want to see myself in 10 or even 5 years right now, but no matter what road the crazy journey that is life takes me down I'm spending a lot of my time preparing for the development of all the necessary skills to deal with whatever life decides to throw at me.
