As a young girl, Lily had always felt lost in the world. She lacked direction, and her relationships were often shallow and unfulfilling. It wasn't until she found herself alone, after a particularly painful breakup, that she realized it was time to start the journey of finding herself. She began the journey of finding herself, which was filled with many obstacles and hardships. But she pushed through them, determined to come out the other side with a newfound sense of confidence and identity.

Lily's life before serious relationships was one of parties, casual flings, and a lack of self. She floated through life without a clear sense of purpose, never fully understanding who she was or what she wanted. But after a few failed relationships, she knew it was time for a change.

Lily's life before getting into serious relationships was filled with structure and routine. She had a set path that she followed, without questioning whether or not it was what she truly wanted. She never took the time to figure out who she was or what she wanted out of life. She was adamant to follow everything by the book and how it has been done for ages, going to school, studying, getting a job, getting married, having children etc. She had societal pressure to prove herself but got so lost in the process that didn't even understand how she got there. she could make out who the person she was looking in the mirror was and what is that they wanted.

The journey of self-discovery was not an easy one for Lily. She faced countless obstacles, including self-doubt, fear, and uncertainty. But with each obstacle, she gained strength and clarity. She took the time to explore her interests, her values, and her passions, learning more about herself every day.Through this self-discovery process, Emily began to break free from the expectations that had been placed upon her. She discovered her passions and interests, and began to pursue them without hesitation. She also learned to set boundaries in her relationships, realizing that she needed to prioritize her own needs and desires.

In the end, Lily emerged from her journey with newfound confidence and a sense of identity. She no longer felt lost or unsure of her place in the world. Instead, she had a clear sense of direction and purpose. She made positive changes in her life, surrounding herself with people who supported and inspired her. And most importantly, she had the confidence to pursue her dreams and take on new challenges.

Looking back on her journey of self-discovery, Lily realized that it was the best thing that ever happened to her. Through the hardships and challenges, she found her true self and the strength to pursue her dreams. She knew that the journey was not over, but she was excited to continue growing and exploring the person she had become.She learned that the key to happiness was not in conforming to the expectations of others, but in following her path and staying true to herself.She is now proud and happy with what she has achieved in this amount of time.

Lily's journey of self discovery reminds us that losing sense of self may be very easy but finding that independence and self confidence and admiration and trust and empathy for self, may not come easy but in the end, is worth the journey. We all have the power to create the life we wish or dream for but it starts with taking that first step forward.

Change is Always not a bad thing. Change and situational stress are necessary for growth and evolution but it is not easy.
