Now being in your 30's (we are still babies!) and knowing what you know now after experiencing a bit of life, What lessons or advice would you share with yourself if you met your younger self?
My answers:
1) What your father did is not your fault! (He was an alcoholic, violent, aggressive, and walked out)
2) Dont jump off the 3rd story porch!!!!!! (long story, but still feeling the effects lol )
3) Listen to your mother when she says that 'so and so" is not a good person to hang out with. (gangs and trouble makers led to lots of encounters with the police)
4) No matter what other children say (they can be mean some times), YOU ARE AWESOME!
5) Your mother is doing the best she can for you, and working hard to provide the things you have. (We were DIRT POOR and didnt have much at all.)
6) Dont get married at 18. You really dont have it all figured out. (I was ridiculously selfish).
7) Go to college as soon as you can!
8) Start reading the Bible, praying, and share what year learn with your siblings.
9) DONT have sex outside of marriage! (I had my first child at 16).
10) Treat all women/girls like a princess.
11) When you face severe trials in your life, You WILL be ok when you come out of them! (Most of them in my 30's)
Well this was rather therapeutic!
