Growing up, I had to take care of myself from a young age, handling responsibilities that most kids didn't have. As I grew older, the workload increased, and I often felt restricted. I couldn't enjoy simple pleasures like eating what I wanted, wearing what I liked because your cloth style and shoe will be chose for you, or hanging out with friends. But when I became an adult, I finally tasted freedom. It was liberating! Now, I'm working to overcome the emotional scars of my past and embracing my newfound independence to live life on my own terms.

And secondly is Motherhood, Growing up I cared for many children, which sparked my desire to have my own one day. I thought motherhood would come naturally, given my experience. But when I gave birth, I realized it's so much more than just caring for children. Without support, it can be overwhelming and traumatic. Motherhood is a sweet journey, but it's not easy. The emotional and physical demands can be crushing moreso Motherhood often requires sacrifices and putting others' needs before one's own. It's a selfless act that can be both rewarding and challenging.

That shift from limited freedom to finally living on your own terms is something many can relate to. And yes, motherhood no matter the preparation hits differently when you experience it firsthand, it’s full of love, sacrifice, and strength.
