Was once a young girl...

Of all of the people you know, who should know you best?

Should it be your family? Friends? Your companion in life? Or strangers with whom you've only shared a moment?

Who?

And what is knowing someone best? Is it being aware of their past, and all of their mistakes, or perhaps only knowing them now and what they've become? Is it the two combined?

But what if your past is so vastly different than your present?

And what if you needed that past to get to this point?

My heart is too heavy with these questions.
