A letter to my younger self

My Dearest,

Don’t be so sad that it fogs your mind.

Don’t try so hard that you don’t enjoy the ride.

Don’t be so angry you become bitter.

Don’t be so fast to criticize unless you walk a mile in someone else’s shoes.

Don’t stay when you want to leave.

Don’t belittle yourself or others in public.

Don’t get lost in a relationship, if it ends you’ll be lost too.

Don’t forget to dream.

Don’t lose hope.

Don’t obsess about anything beyond your control.

Don’t forget to say thank you.

Don’t forget to say you are sorry when an apology is due.

Don’t leave friends behind when you find love.

Don’t skip a day without having had some fun.

Don’t forget to take care of number one first. This would be YOU.

Don’t forget to pamper yourself.

Don’t hold grudges, they will hold you hostage.

Don’t be so hard on yourself.

Don’t forget to be grateful every day for something.

And most importantly, don’t forget that you are not alone.
