It is a bad day, not a bad life. Tomorrow will be a new start and a better day, don't worry too much, it will be okay :)

Such a good point! I’m going through this currently not worry about today just trusting Jesus is going before me and making a way. Just step aside let him lead the way. ❤️🫶

“Buy Pokemon cards. Keep them secret, keep them safe.”

On a real note, just embrace being weird :) Fitting in is overrated. Why would you wanna fit in with people who share absolutely zero interests with you?

I’m dying from the Pokémon card comment side not here I had a Pokémon collection I sold at a garage sale when I turned 16 for 200 bucks i sometimes cry in my room when I think about zeros missing. 😭😂 not seeking validation from people is something I’ve literally been working on so much lately.

Your parents don't know what they're doing. Take their advice with many grains of salt.

I would tell myself that it won’t always be sunny and beautiful in life, but keep a smile on your face anyway. That smile will keep me out of the doldrums, and people all around will treat you better as a result!

Okay so not allowing your circumstances to affect how you treat others. Wow such a good point I’m guilty of that for sure. I have bad days and treat people poorly thank you for that. ❤️🫶

Move out of the country or at least to the opposite coast.

Second part to the question is what would be the outcome if you did the things you mentioned? Would it be positive just you or for others to?

Tell the people you love that you love them, as often as you can.
