The love, the hate, and the beautiful

Letter To My Younger Self:

Dear young me,

This is a letter from the older you.

I'm writing you this letter to tell you

some of the things that you'll need to know

in the future that I wish someone would've told me

when I was young.

Don't be in a rush to grow up.

I know it might be exciting

and you get to do more things when you're older

but it isn't all that great.

Yes you'll get to date, have a car, etc.

But those things don't last.

That boy may end up breaking your heart.

That car might crash eventually.

But even though those things don't stay forever

you have to learn and grow from it.

The one who broke you wasn't worth your time.

That car can always be repaired.

So live each day to the fullest

but don't rush yourself.

Don't be afraid to love

and only let those in who truly care.

And always remember to be yourself and shine brightly.

Don't ever let anyone take away your shine.

So this was just some advice that I hope you can use

and maybe give it to those who need it most.

Love, The older me/you
