Two speakers reflect on turning 16 and the struggle to fit in. Speaker B describes how difficulty with conformity became a path to discovering their unique identity. Speaker A notes this journey of becoming yourself continues well into adulthood.
So I could really understand what you're saying about, like, yeah, at 16, it was like a big change for me. And, you know, it's hard to always fit in, but it's good to not fit in because I feel like that's kind of how I figured out who I am and found who I was as a unique.
Person and individual. That's a huge statement, right? That's like, and, and you know what's funny is that adults, you know, each of us, I think is we're still looking for how do we become our own person. So, you know, this is, it's huge because you're demonstrating it every day. You're demonstrating it every day, and I hope I am, too. But I think your story is one of it's kind of dramatic, like how you demonstrated that like you are your own person. So. Right.
