You Fine Wine, You

You are a fine wine, better with time.

When you were a tiny tot, you couldn't feed yourself. When you were in preschool, you could barely dress yourself. When you were in elementary school you would still accidentally wet the bed every once in a while. When you were in middle school you thought you'd never be able to write an essay longer than three pages. When you were in high school you weren't great at subduing your awkwardness around strangers. In college you made questionable choices with your clothing and your money.

Look at how far you've come. That's just the beginning.

Already, you listen to better music than before. You are a better driver than before. You are better at playing on your strengths and asking for help to cover your weaknesses. You know yourself better than ever before, and that may be your greatest strength of all.
