I Have Changed Over The Years
Growing up, I was definitely labelled a 'bad kid', the kid who broke the rules, did whatever he wanted, was a bully, got other kids into trouble, was probably going to end up in prison, a waste of space etc.
I did a lot of things that I came to regret and had to take responsibility for. But at the time, I just saw myself how everyone else saw me and ran with it.
Now, I've come to a point in my life where I know why I did the things I did, there are reasons but not excuses, especially for the way I treated others. And i've let go of the people who couldn't see anything more than that 'bad kid'.
