I know I have changed a lot over the years and also kept a lot of things the same. The thing that stayed the same over the years is my mindset. I always had a mindset to over come my struggles in life and just keep pushing my self to do better things. I changed by not being childish any more and being more considerate of others. I learned empathy, which is the ability to feel for the other person in a situation. (Wood,2014,P.56) I learned that in order to gain respect you have to try to feel for your fellow peer and understand that it is not always about you. Over the years i have grown in height, weight and also handsomeness. I believe my peers noticed my changes due to the fact that more and more people wanted to hang out with me as I got older.I was invited to go out more with friends, and also got accepted in to more clubs because of the changes i made in life. People actually started coming to me for problems,and for advice.

As me and Whitney grown up, we have grown apart as we matured. I stopped being childish after high school, and Whitney continued her ways. I had to end up cutting her off because we decided not to attend the same college and because she was still acting childish. I assumed that she would never grow out of her childish ways, and thought i could not help her out like a real friend. This past semester my perception of Whitney changed when she sent me a letter saying how she was sorry adjusting to the new "Eddie"
