Dear you,
You have a lot to find out. You are shy, but you have a great personality. You are an artist, but you have not yet found a way to express yourself. You're in love, but you haven't found your voice yet. Sometimes everything seems ridiculously confusing.
It continues to persist.
Life is hard. Always has been and always will be. Frightening and frustrating situations will be thrown at you and you will have to learn to deal with it. At the moment, though, you don't know how to handle it. You think it will be so forever. Will not.
The friendships you have now may not last as long as you would think they would last. It's ok. People enter and leave your life exactly as they should, and you will learn their lessons, good and bad. Understand that sometimes people get separated, even if you don't want to. Sometimes you will have to prioritize your personal growth and progress. This growth will invite new people into your life.
Life is too short to be constrained by insecurity and resentment. Instead of looking for reasons to hate the world, look for reasons to love it. Look for reasons to be moved by nature and the natural love people have for each other. The news will always be full of hatred and anger; You try to understand that these are not the only emotions in the world, they are simply the ones we choose to focus on. Adjust your focus.
Trust that everything happens for a reason.
With love,
Juliana
