- Find time to cry over the people that have diluted your trust in the span of your teenage years. Bury your face in already soaked blankets and write about them in your journal. Accept the loss that came along with the heartbreak because if you never do, then your life will remain at a standstill. Your summers will remind you of one past lover, while your autumns will attack you with memories of another. It is not fair to you, and you will never be able to find the beauty in the changing of seasons ever again.
- Do not formulate scenarios of what might happen in your head. It results to false accusations, high hopes, and a bitter taste of reality. Life has always been unpredictable and every scene that might play out in your head will most likely not happen the way you thought it would. Stop being the fortune teller of your own life because no one can foresee what will come next.
- When words spill, catch them. You never know when you will need to use them again.
- Do not think that you have your life figured out at twenty-five. Do not think that you have it figured out at fifty. There will always be questions left unanswered and adventures left untaken. Learning and growth does not have a cut-off age because there is always room to learn and take in certain things. Reaching a certain age does not give you a right to belittle the younger generation. Understand that we are all ignorant, because none of us will ever have an understanding of life truly is.
- Take some time for yourself. If you need to get away then get away. Do not question it, just do it. Solitude does not have to be a negative thing. Take some time for yourself, figure yourself out, and enjoy the silence that you brought along with you, because you will beg for it once reality comes rushing back to you.
very true!! agreed
