I'm going to write about the challenge of keeping true to yourself as you grow up and move to different places, as cliche as that is. I think the hardest part of moving is staying yourself without trying to relive the life you had set up before. It's important to remember that everyplace is different but different can be good, it's just a matter of rebuilding your life with what you're given and not trying to recreate anything just because it's already been figured out. I'm also going to discuss how whether it's okay to adjust parts of yourself to relate to a new place. Adaptation is a survival instinct, but the difficulty is in finding that balance between compromising with your surroundings and giving up the best parts of yourself to fit in. As Emerson says "Imitation is suicide" the worst thing you can do is come into a new place as someone you're not.
