As a teenager, I felt I was always letting people down. I was rebellious(反叛的) on the outside, __1___ on the inside I wanted people to ___2____ me.

Once I left home to hitchhike(搭便车) to California with my friend Penelope. The trip wasn’t ____3___, and there were many times I didn’t feel safe. One situation in particular left me __ 4___ 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 ____5___with us, was wearing my clothes. And my ___6___ seemed to like her better than me. I wondered if I would be ____7___ if I weren’t there. I told my mom, and she explained that ____8____ Penelope was a lovely girl, no one could ____9___ me. I pointed out, “She is more patient and is neater than I have ever been.” My mom said these were wonderful ___10____ but I was the only person who could fill my ___11__. She made me realize that even with my __12___, — and they were many — I was a loved member of the family who couldn’t be replaced.

    I became a searcher, ___13___ who I was and what made me unique. My ____14___ of myself was changing. I wanted a solid base to start from. I started to resist pressure to ___15____ in ways that I didn't like any more, and I ___16___ who I really was. I came to feel much more ___17___ that no one can ever take my place.
