I'm not who I was

One day, it's inevitable, you will wake up and realize "I'm not who I was". Or at least I assume it's inevitable in that we are ever changing human beings. Some times you sit back and remember/realize...
This is who I was. 
This is who I was striving to be. 
This is who I am. 
If I continue down this path this is who I will be come. 
If I make these changes can I still be who I wanted to be?
I'm really reflecting (this past week) on who I have become. Sometimes it feels as if the person I am right now was forced on me, though, I know that I have [some] control over it.
I see a lot of things in my self that I DO NOT like... Things I never thought I would be. And yet, there are things about me that I never thought I could be, nor did I realize these areas that I was/am lacking in. 

There's a lot of dancing around with my words I realize it. I don't really want to say all that I'm thinking because "if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything". 
All that being said. 
Who am I becoming? 
Bitter? 
Angry? 
Self centered? 
Stuck in my ways?
Scared? 
Unsatisfiable? 
Sad? 
I don't want those to be titles that I relate with. 
This is a daily struggle for me. 
I want to be who I was... I want to find that person again. Even in the midst of navigating the ocean of grief...I believe I can find her or at least parts of her.
