You have no idea which aspects of yourself will stay the same and which will change. There are many negative aspects about me. I am cynical, vaguely pessimistic, bitter, insensitive, reckless and ruthless, but I have learned to love these things. These are the things that allowed me to limit my friends to those who care, get into a good college, have the right personality type to launch into my career field, and just be the me that I have become. accustomed to. This is not necessarily a good mindset to have, not only because these traits are inherently negative, but also because they are subject to change. It is unwise to get attached to something that is not only likely to change, but is very likely to change.
