What advice would you get your younger self
I thought this would be an interesting thread.
Going into a new year, and as we do sometimes look back at the year that as just passed this thought popped into my head. i was wondering what you all would say to your younger self, whether it be last year,10 years ago, 20/30 or more. What have you learned and how have you grown from it? What would you do differently if anything. For me personally, i would say dont be afraid to open up, to someone you can trust. dont hold the bad inside you because thats not good. You are stronger than you think, so never give up. Enjoy life and what is as to offer, and try to learn something new about it and yourself when you can. oh and dont get married at 20 lol |

To my younger self: I know it's hard not to hurt when both parents walked out on you as a baby, they were and always will be childish self centered brats. You still have yourself, learn all you can so you can take care of your self then live well. Don't get married at 19...wrong move cause you will forever pay for that. Another thing, don't pay any attention to any one who blast you about the way ward parents you aren't them and will rise above what they will ever be. Be wary of people who act like friends then turn on you when they are done with you, yes you will get burned a time or two and it will hurt like hell its called life lessons we all get them. The word NO isn't a bad word to say learn it early and use it wisely. So much more to say, but later.

Love harder, live wiser, and have no regrets (of which I have very few). Every.single.event. has made me who I am today!! I have lived a pretty decent life....made a few wrong turns, but again, made me wiser, and so much more appreciative!!!

During my young adult life, clear up until a couple years ago, I never could really wrap my arms around the idea that I am truly a fabulous woman. It's just been this past two years that I experienced my own "ah ha" moment when I could fully embrace myself as a person worthy of my own kind of fabulosity (1).
Second, always trust your inner intuition, even if others might not come up with the same inner-knowing. Your inner instincts will pretty much be right on target, most all the time.

In the "trust your gut" department; I would say to my younger self to pay attention when issues of the mind collide with issues of the body. While not in medical vogue right now, that connection runs deep, to ignore it is folly.
I would also tell my younger self to truly appreciate the moment. You never know when doing that favorite thing whether or not it will be the last time you get to do it. The most important thing I have is time. Everyone gets the same number of hours in the day. Everything else is decoration. |

Don't go in the shower away from home without shower shoes. Lol, not funny Always get an official accident report Follow up quickly with property management to be sure they have notified their insurance company Don't try to be nice in these instances, nice guys get taken advantage of.
