Then - I just left school and had a job. My sister, nan and granddad was also still alive. I however had a out of place nose that couldn't be fixed until older and didn't have no niece and nephews.

Now - Family members have died, family members have been born and I have no job. I also have a scar down my stomach but have had my nose put back in place. I've met some interesting people, got into walking/hiking and went on a plane for the first time however I'm also closer to death.

The only thing that's stayed the same is the futile desire to have my own family one day. The older I get the less hope I have in that ever happening. This isn't throwing a pity party for myself this is simply just acceptance.

I'd say 16 year old me would have wanted a little more for myself at this age. Mostly a stable job and not living at home but would have also wanted to keep the people he's lost. He would be pleasantly surprised to know he also would gain new people in his life and have more confidence. That in turn would teach him it's ok to be yourself.
