IF YOU COULD MEET YOUR YOUNG SELF WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?

cerry

If you could meet your young self what would you say?

I’m proud of you?

I’m disappointed in you?

What have you done with your life?

We all have questions we would love to ask our young selves…

Things we wish we could have changed…

Mistakes we wish we never made…

But then it takes us to that one question…

If we could go back and change something, would we?

There's a lot of things I did that I desperately wish to change...

But would I change them?

I guess we'll never know...

But one thing is for sure,

Without my past,

My mistakes,

My decisions,

My present wouldn't exist!

So in a way I'm thankful for my past

It was a lesson…

One that I will always hold dear!

One that I will never repeat if I can help it!

    I'm sorry I ever put you away.

  • L. B. Mek

    a very relatable theme
    written really well, thank you
    (personally I think, I would say
    something encouraging, but
    as like then, even now
    I wouldn't know how to word it
    for it to stand out
    above, everything else I heard
    back then
    and foolishly, chose to ignore...)

    Something here I think everyone must sooner or later think about. Personally, I think I would tell my younger self to listen to my dad more than I do, as I found him to know what I needed for the long haul. Excellent write.
