I am who I am today,
because of decisions I've made,
because of friends who've guided me.
My friends do not shape who I am,
but their love guides my path,
my decisions shape my future,
and mold my soul.
Through trials and every tribulation,
those connections, those choices,
the essence of life,
I have become as I am.
Because of your directions,
because of my determination,
I am who I choose to be.
