What is your advice to those younger than yourself?
Live each day to it's fullest. Do not take people, places or experiences for granted. Love the people you love even when they get on your nerves, to the fullest. Don't ever be ashamed to hug your parents. If your mother is making you crazy, it's not your fault, just try and find even the tiniest of good in her and love that part of her. If you don't like someone, either get to know them better, you just may find they could turn out to be your best friend... or just don't waste your time with them, life is too short. Don't SMOKE.. it's not cool, it doesn't taste good, it WILL KILL YOU. Always think before you do something. Love is an emotion, it takes time to grow. Physical attraction is not love. If a man hits you once he will probably do it again and again so run. I can't say that about women because I've never been in that situation but it's probably true too. Always be honest.. you're going to have to eventually anyway, so why not be that way from the start. Try to forgive, holding on to resentments only hurts yourself the person you are mad at has probably forgotten it and it's only taking up your own time.
But most importantly believe in yourself, trust your gut. You can either be your best cheerleader in life or your own worst enemy. Never tell yourself I could have done better, just do it better next time.... Life is just practice, mistakes happen, shake your head like an etch-er-sketch and go on. Enjoy your time on Earth but know there HAS to be better things to come.
