Writing Prompt:

What advice would you give to your younger self?

 

*I put the writing prompt here because I want to encourage everyone to write about some advice they would give to their younger self. You don't have to do it but I wanted to share my advice and experience, and I wanted to encourage others to do the same because I think writing out your feeling can definitely help with anything that's going on.*

 

Question:

What advice would you give to your younger self?

 

My answer:

I think if there was a way to go back and tell my younger self something I would say don't listen to what others say, follow what you believe, and just don't let nothing bring you down. I say these three because I suffered a lot from bullying as a kid and I bet a lot of kids do too. I always had a problem that I wanted to keep others happy and satisfied that I honestly lost myself. After that, I went into bad times that I'm still dealing with to this day. And I just want to say if there is anyone you know or yourself suffering from the same problems, forget about pleasing other people because people come and go but there are some that stay. But those people who stay will love you for you and that's the exact same thing you should do. Love yourself not because I'm telling you to but because if you don't love yourself no one is going to do it for you, and honestly in this world, you need love and a lot of it.
