Advice to my Younger Self
January 4, 2022
No need to worry,
About what others will think.
Just be yourself,
And if they don’t like that,
Then they weren’t worth your time anyway.
It’s stress-free,
And more fun,
Not caring about others' opinions.
This way,
By being yourself,
You will find the ones,
Who truly appreciate you,
For who you really are.

When I was younger I would always struggle with being comfortable around other people because I seemed to be worried about what they thought of me. But as I grew older I learned that it is a lot easier to just be myself. It is a lot easier said than done but I hope anyone else that feels the same way can get there eventually.
