Through prose and poetry, Rogers explores how relationships, expectations, and surroundings shape one’s sense of self and identity, and, ultimately, these pieces work together to answer the question: “How much of ourselves is made up of others?”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTo be ourselves is one thing, yet to find ourselves is entirely another. In the context of girlhood, these tasks are often halted, as how can one understand themself if they are constantly working to be understood? Through this written exploration of the transition to womanhood, the inherent longing, fury, and fight that accompany being a girl, are traveled through, as well as the role that outside forces play on the formation of individuality. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAll things in life- including our own personal journeys- have a beginning and an ending.
