Dear Dreamers:
It was a simple question we recently asked ourselves – “What bit of wisdom would we share with our younger selves?”
Years – decades, even – removed from our different eras of existence, we’ve grown older, wiser, and far more realistic – pessimistic, even – so, not only did our answers conjure the best memories from those younger days when we were your age, but the advice offered below is solid no matter what direction your life takes once your days became full of the consequence of your decisions.
So, may we suggest …
Don’t sweat the small stuff and take the long way home. Know your worth, recognize you grow more from the struggle than from the spotlight. And yeah, that’s right, just do it.
Never think “IT” can’t happen, always be vigilant, realize apparent disappointment can evolve into good fortune, take nothing for granted, ever, and never assume someone will be with you forever.
Travel. Pet that dog. Follow your heart, not your head. Be you – everyone will adjust – and choose your friends ever-so-carefully.
See a great world, enjoy the ride, be where your feet are.
And slow down.
Sincerely,
Older Us to Younger You
