To: Me From: Me

No one is perfect, don’t try to be.
You are who you are, not who they expect you to become.
Dream
Disappointments are ok, we’re only human.
You may be smart, but you’re not wise…yet.
Listen.
Not all humans are bad.
Listen to others, but don’t forget to listen to yourself.
Be open to new things, you’ll like it.
Love is strong word, use it wisely. 
Make mistakes, learn from them.
Be cautious, not scared.
Never mistake a friend as an enemy.
Don’t believe everything you hear.
Speak up, they will listen. 
Create the good times…you’ll thank yourself later.
Remember the good times, they don’t last forever. 
                                                                                                    12/21/12
