Did you grow up to become the person you hoped to be?

Are you better, worse, or still working on it?

Not really, but when I was a kid I hoped I would someday become an extrovert like my mother. But it would’ve meant a change of my entire personality. So instead, I eventually grew to accept myself as a reserved, quiet introvert.
