Pep-Talk

I was going through some of my stuff and found stories and other such nonsense I had written in 7th-8th grade. Most of it was terrible. Buried among all the crap I found one particular paper- whatever made me write this back then thought someone would need it later. Or I was just being weird... which is a definite possibility.

A tad dramatic at some parts, but everyone is when they're 13 or 14. Here:


"Though things look the worst at times, things do get better. I promise they do. Never lose hope, never lose sight of the blinding light at the end of the tunnel.

Don't lose or get lost though things are fucked up. It will get better. Outcomes do improve. You can get a do-over, but not if you give up or give in.

Remember who you are- what you stand for, where you come from. Keep in sight your dreams always, inspiration strikes at any moment. Will you answer the desperate pleas of long lost and forgotten blips of hopes and dreams?

Don't give up.

Don't give in.

Don't be any less than what you were born to be. Never let your destiny be less than how you are supposed to be.
Look for the light at the end of the tunnel. It's there, trust me.

If you ever get lost in the road of life, come to me. I'll be your guide.
I'll help you trudge on, stand dignified in every aspect of the day.

I can be there for you but you have to promise me one thing:
Don't ever give up.

Yes, times are rough but always learn from past mistakes- they all have a message to bear."




Stumbling upon this was bizarre for me. I kinda needed it.
