Sooner or later, we'll be looking back on everything and laugh about it like we knew what was happening.

People say your strong when your holding on. Thats absolutely wrong. You are your strongest when you Let Go. I can't believe how stupid I've been. I only plan to walk the face of the earth ONCE. Not twice; so I want to learn to live without any regrets, and to live without HAVING to love. The word Love is so overrated. You need to focus on the ones who are close to you, and ignore the haters. Be yourself- do everything that I didn't. I'm wishing that one day my dreams will come true, but until then I have to live so hard it feels like I'm dying. So whatever happens in the future- whatever has happened in the past is nothing compared to what is happening right now. I've made so many silly mistakes, but most of all living without a purpose is the worst. You have to put everything behind you, and whatever people say about you is useless. The ones who are important to you, won't care. Your friends know you, your family knows you so does it really matter what other people say? People are just like slinkies. They can hear so many good things about you, and think your a great person. But if they hear ONE bad thing, they will turn the world on you. Your important friends are the ones who are always there, and the others, they just aren't important if they care about the stupidest things.

As Dr. Suess said, "Be yourself. The ones who care don't matter, and the ones who matter don't care." How true is that? So today, I want to challenge you to put yesterday behind you. You don't have to figure today out, but think about what your doing right NOW. Not in 1 minute, not in an hour, not in 7 hours or anything else! Think about what's happening RIGHT now and how you can make the most of it. Playing in the rain is WORTH catching colds. Because Sooner or Later we are going to realize what we did wrong, but you can't spend every waking hour thinking about what you did wrong, what you could've said, what you should've been. This is the future. This is what we've been living for. Chase your dreams, ignore the haters. Don't doubt yourself, you DON'T need to think twice. Find a reason to smile! Don't let ANYTHING bring you down. I'm not perfect, your not perfect, no one is perfect. I'm clumsy, insecure, scared of the world, and I have to learn the hard way most the time. But you know what? Thats okay! Because darling, Thats Just Me. So how far is it until we reach the place we're aiming at? It doesn't matter as long as you go the route that you admire. I don't think we need a map to get to the place of our hopes.

So today, I want you to start your new life. You don't need to be like the models in the magazines. Its alright to have 2 bags of chips! Drink a 2 liter bottle of soda sometime! Go to Shipley's Donuts and get your favorite kind, and don't be afraid to eat it. Being perfect is so overrated, but being yourself is NEVER outdated. So how far away is it? Its not. Its your life- so if you work your hardest I will to. I promise.

I SWEAR THIS TIME I MEAN IT. (:
