Personal Narrative-The Most Important Person I Am

Improved Essays
People have always told me that the hardest words to say are the most important words. Do I want to sit here and pour out my heart and admit all of my flaws from the past couple years? No. I have never been one for expressing my emotions to people – I’ve always thought that no one wanted to hear them. No one wanted to hear about me and my life. But as I think about that more and as I continue through the stage of my life that I am experiencing, I want to use my situation as an example.

And that’s why I wanted to write this, to be real with people and admit my flaws. I want to show that everyone struggles with something, and that everyone truly does need a friend. Even if you think things are perfect. I want to be that person that people feel comfortable coming to. Like I said, you learn a lot about being a friend when you feel alone. I always thought that telling people my story was reaching too far, but there is no such thing as reaching too far and loving too much. I couldn’t be more excited over what I have learned, I am so glad to have been able to share it today, and I am ready to put it into action and help others.

    My boyfriend of three years broke up with me; my heart was shattered like a mirror on the ground, cracked and pieces missing. I never thought that this would affect me so much. I couldn’t let everyone see how upset I was, so I hid my emotions behind a fake smile that no one ever knew existed. That is where all my problems started; something started to grow inside of me like an embryo of a new unborn child. Slowly but surely I sank into a dark abyss of depression.…

    When I was younger, I was able to be completely honest with some of my close friends by telling them how I truly felt and looking them in their eyes if we were having a face-to-face conversation. However, due to the advancements in technology, I found myself having scarcer face-to-face conversations. As a result, I grew more comfortable talking and being open with my friends through technology, such as text messages. Today, I still struggle with opening up to my friend without having to type out my feelings. Therefore, I’ve started to repress my feeling and keep them to myself instead of burdening my friends with long messages to read since I was too uncomfortable to say them out loud.…
