Notes to my Teenage Self
- School is rubbish, but that goes away. Life changes. You change. Learn what you can whilst you can.
- Parents aren't always right. Sometimes they get angry and frustrated like you do, because they too are only human.
- Remain patient. If you become otherwise, blame no-one but yourself.
- Don't judge anyone, you don't know their journey.
- Some people are born bad.
- Don't try to understand everything, some things you'll never understand.
- Stay creative. Keep writing.
- Dance like your Dad.
- Family comes first.
- It's OK to let go sometimes.
- Be yourself, people will love you for it.
- Listen to lots of music.
- Meet lots of people.
- Don't be afraid to talk.
- Teachers are sometimes bullies.
- Get outside, don't stay indoors.
- The world is overwhelmingly narcissistic. Don't be that way.
- Sometimes things will be taken away from you and you won't know why. It's OK.
- One day, someone will blow you away.
- You don't have to look like everyone else.
- You can love someone and still let them go.
- You will have other best friends.
- What you're learning in school is sometimes more social than academic.
- You get good material writing when you're sad or angry.
- You don't have to decide what you want to be at 18. You don't have to go to Uni, you learn just as much travelling, and it's more fun.
- Things have this way of balancing out, sometimes bad things happen for a reason.
- Parents aren't always right. Sometimes they get angry and frustrated like you do, because they too are only human.
