There's a lot to lose.

I know you think that right now, in this very moment, there is nothing that can stop you and nothing will ever change. Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but there is a lot more changing in your life than you realize. You might think it'd be so cool to go out and do something stupid today with your best friend, but you could get severely hurt. In that rush of adrenaline, you have to remember how this could affect you and those around you.
Don't be an idiot. Really, think things through. Don't marry for his money, don't jump because it's funny, don't cheat because it's easy, and don't fuck because you're lonely. I know it's easy to just have an idea pop into your head and follow through with it without a second thought. Always think before you say or do, because depending on what route you take could be a small step or a major leap.

There's a lot to lose. Just keep that in mind. Always, always keep that in the back of your mind.
