IN CASE I CHANGE MY MIND
Notes from the Middle of Becoming
By Bristi Priyam Sonowal

What if you don't have to have everything figured out just yet?

At eighteen, life can feel like standing somewhere between who you've been and who you're becoming. The past follows you in unexpected ways, the future refuses to offer clear answers, and the person you thought you were begins to change in ways you don't always know how to explain.

In Case I Change My Mind is a collection of personal reflections on growing up, uncertainty, identity, memory, relationships, and the quiet moments that make us stop and think.

Through ordinary experiences, difficult conversations, passing memories, and questions without easy answers, Bristi Priyam Sonowal explores what it means to exist without constantly trying to become someone else, to understand people whose perspectives differ from our own, and to accept that the things we believe today might not be the things we believe tomorrow.

These pages don't offer a perfect philosophy for living. They don't pretend that growing up means having all the answers. Instead, they make room for doubt, contradiction, change, and the possibility that we are allowed to outgrow even our own understanding of ourselves.

Because perhaps becoming isn't about reaching a final version of who we are.

Perhaps it's about learning to live with the person we are today, while leaving room for the person we might become tomorrow.

Written from the middle of becoming, this book is an invitation to pause, reflect, question, and recognize that you are allowed to change your mind.

You don't have to know everything today.

You are still becoming.
