Can you think of any advice your Older Self would give to your YoungerSelf?

Trust more, worry less.

“I shall pass this way but once; any good that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being; let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.”

Stop buying for "down the road" unless something specific in mind.

Just because its on sale is not reason to buy.

Purchases made ahead take up valuable real estate and effort to move.

Respect your elders, you'll be one of them sooner than you wish.

I tend towards being cynical for many reasons, so I would say trust no one until proven otherwise.

I know that sounds harsh, however until you've walked a mile in someone else's shoes...

My advise probably isn't going to be popular - Get a good education and a job you enjoy.  Don't get married if you don't want to - it's not the be all, end all and you don't need it to be happy nor to live the life you want.  Be happy and true to yourself.

You won't believe how much fun you're going to have and the many adventures ahead.  Relax it will will work out!

@MakeUpMaidn  Trust your instincts, don't settle, stand up for who and what you believe in no matter what, trust God in all things, take care of your skin and body, and cherish the loved ones in your life who cherish you, because they are gone too soon. That includes our precious pets. I've done all of these things in my life, just wish I had done it more. Then again life is a lesson and we learn every day.
