What would you say to your past self ?

I’m sorry for losing ur dreams because of Love . I was stupid the old me might hate me

your dedication to becoming more than what you knew did not go in vain. seeds were planted, roots are continuing to grow, fruits are being shown. John 15:5

I’m so proud of you for overcoming the things you thought you couldn’t. Keep going. Day by day.

i hope you found your peace new me and never feel alone anywhere anymore mwa

I'm proud of how far you've come. keep working hard and chasing those goals. :)

I’d tell my younger self that there is a God who made you from the beginning. He didn’t cause the bad things to happen to you, but He’s so good and loves you so much, he will take that pain and turn it into a masterpiece.

In order for things to grow, you need sun and rain. We don’t like the rain but that’s where we get what we need most

. Life won’t get easier; you have to make a choice. You will either choose to get better at solving the problems that come your way, or you will let problems control your life. I believe in you; I’m proud of you; I love you.

it’s okay. take deep breaths. the world is also taking its time. we’ll get there. no rush.

I wish you could see yourself for who you are. You deserve kindness.

to myself, remember not to use permeant solutions to temporary problems..

It's ok

go out, enjoy something fun and not regret life for once. what you’ve done can be count as complete

i wont let it be for nothing.

oh it makes me happier than you know, i’m rooting for you. i’m glad you’re chasing happiness

i think about u alot. if i wasnt scared of my feelings for u then, where would we be now?

One day at a time.

Be kind. To yourself and to others. Don’t hate too much, just let it go.

Focus on yourself<3 don’t pay attention to useless boys who distract you.

I’ll always love you. You’re my best friend forever.

i wish you loved me the way i love you.

you are enough. resting isn't time wasted. go rest, you deserve it :)

Be brave Live your life to the fullest

To the kid reading this,

Let’s put down the coffee, yeah? God knows it’s bad for you, and it won’t help with your anxiety. I know the world feels like it’s crashing down around you, and all you can do is seethe in rage and fear, with your knees tucked beneath your chin and your shaking hands wrapping around yourself. But there is hope, and it comes in small chunks. There’s a chance your family will acknowledge you as a boy one day, and there’s a chance that day will never come. Whatever outcome, you have people you can love and trust, because they love and trust you too. It’s hard, I know, when looking at the news is one tragedy after another, one anti-trans bill passed after another, but you will survive, because you’re not alone. You were never alone.

Being alone sounds far more appealing, trust me, I know, but surrounding yourself with people who make you feel good about existing and who shape you into a better person will make surviving that much more bearable. Go outside with friends, take in the sun. Sounds silly, but sunlight will help boost your serotonin.

I’ll admit, it’s still difficult sometimes. It’s gloomy more often than not, and some days that pain is just too much. I’ve found that writing my feelings, either privately or to a friend, has helped immensely. Take it easy. Hope will come like blossoms in the snow: slowly, despite the harsh reality we live in.You’re okay, and you’re going to be okay.Sincerely,L

Just b/c u are different doesnt mean that u are a loser, u are more than enough and I am proud of u

Be grateful for the present don't dwell on the past

u give too much of yourself to people, but one day you'll find someone who'll give just as much to u

be comfortable in yourself, be assertive, learn to accept, and learn to love.

if you think no one loves you just know i do

you are very much lovable, you just haven’t found the person who is capable of loving you, yet

Can't you believe you made this far younger me? You would've smiled, laugh and giggle just being happy I would smiled back to you I do not deserve this but I have it and I'm alive and well :)

There’s so much I want to say to you, but it’s too much to fit in one sentence. I love you.

Never forget there are people who would split the ocean in half just to be near you

i hope you know ill never be able to stop loving you

one day we will find peace with ourself, although that may not be today, it will come eventually

Think carefully about VERY important decisions and don’t just put it in the backburner. Trust me this will haunt you for the rest of your life.

You were your first love, forgive yourself

Put yourself back out there. Stop fearing rejection and living in the comfort of loneliness.

you will overcome the hardships — don’t let it define you !!! you’re in a better place now :)

Be gentle with yourself, you’re growing, even when it doesn’t feel like it.
