i am who i am today because...

I am who I am today because of so many people.
Because of those that hurt me.
Because of those that pulled me down.
Because of those that told me I am nothing worse it.
 
I am who I am today because of so many emotions.
Because of those when I was desperate and felt lonely.
Because of those when I was crying and felt sad.
Because of those when I was unable to manage going on living.
 
I am who I am today because I learned how to rise from the ashes.
Because I learned that you only get stronger when you were weak.
Because I learned that you need negative things in your life to appreciate the positives.
Because I learned that no one should tell you what to do.
 
I am who I am today because of me.
Because I am the one, that actually lives my life.
Because I am the one that is making decisions in my life.
Because I am the one that understood that the choice is always yours and only yours.
 
I am who I am today
And I am proud of it.
