Dear Younger Me,
What the hell were you thinking?
-I finally thought things through
Dear Young Me,
Don't give in to every guy who gives you the time of day, or you're going to get heartbroken more than you can imagine. You won't find the one until the end of your senior year, so don't tell yourself you're marrying "him."
-Love, College Me.
Dear Young Me,
You're going to get shot by someone you don't know, twice. So when she asks you to go get her a pack of cigarettes at 2 O'clock in the morning, say no.
-Older, scared you.
Dear Young Me,
Don't waste your time trying to forgive and forget. You can't forgive and you won't forget.
-Tired of thinking of him
Dear Young Me,
Even silent rebellion is rebellion.
Rebel.
-DO IT.
Dear Young Me,
Accept what you know is true. Once you come out, everything is a lot easier. But don't wait so long... that part hurts.
-Happily partnered you
Dear stupid girl,
Keep your head up, and always remember that everything will be okay, and if it is not okay, it is not the end! Listen to your head, but follow your heart, make your dreams come true. And when the world tells you to give up, remember hope will always be there to tell you to keep going.
-Still stupid, but smarter than you
Dear Young Me,
Your Mom is a fuck up, always has been. But she loves you, and will do anything for you. Stick by her side, she's hating herself, theres no need for you to, too.
-Wiser me.
