　　As a teenager, I felt I was always letting people down. I was rebellious on the outside ,but on the inside I wanted people to like me.

　　Once I left home to hitchhike to California with my friend Penelope. The trip wasn’t easy, and there were many times I didn’t feel safe. One situation in particular kept me grateful to still be alive. When I returned home, I was different — not so outwardly sure of myself.

　　I was happy to be home. But then I noticed that Penelope, who was staying with us, was wearing my clothes. And my family seemed to like her better than me. I wondered if I would be missed if I weren’t there. I told my mom, and she explained that though Penelope was a lovely girl, no one could replace me. I pointed out, "She is more patient and is neater than I have ever been." My mom said these were wonderful qualities , but I was the only person who could fill my role . She made me realize that even with my faults , — and they were many —I was a loved member of the family who couldn’t be replaced.

　　I became a searcher, wanting to find out who I was and what made me unique. My view of myself was changing. . I wanted a solid base to start from. I started to resist pressure on can never quispot in ways that I didn’t like any more, and I delight who I really was. I came to feel much more sure that no one can ever take my place.

　　Each of us holds a unique place in the world. You are special, no matter what others say or what you may think. So can’t about being replaced. You can’t be.
