Advice

What would I tell my younger self
Now I have an older wisdom’s wealth 
For the old me should say some things
That will echo through the years as it rings

Don’t be judgmental or such a fool
When the only thing that matters is the no hurt rule
Enjoy the sunshine when it in shines
And not be too hard on myself when it’s not so fine 

Remember that those you love are best
And don’t go wishing for something else from the rest 
When you look at the world and what is around
Be content in your life and what you have found.
