She had never been sure of the life she wanted to live, but at the same time, she was so unsure about most things that it was hard to be sure on anything in her life. But her life was her own to do with as she pleased, and that meant that eventually, she would settle down on one thing specific in her life and actually stick to it. She didn’t know that the future held agony and months of pain, that she would be dependent on others in the pack to help take care of herself. She had no idea that she would be so weak that she would miss her children’s first adventures in the world. When that came, she would regret not having anyone by her side to help, but at the same time she was too independent to ask for anyone’s help.

Maybe she should take her own advice.
