Be more ambitious
You are going to make it to old age
Keep both your cape coats
Get a parrot while you're still young enough
You are going to be glad to avail yourself of the internet and smartphone tech. What is it? You'll see!
Write down your music improvisations
Watch out for hormonal replacement therapy
Learn something else
@Fradiga
Sounds very helpful Fradiga but why get a parrot whilst still young? Because you could age together? 😊
@amiablePeace77
Yes, those birds can live over 30 years and I am not sure I'll make it to 102
@Fradiga
Fradiga keep going, keep going! 💙
@amiablePeace77
I would warn myself about alcohol. Although without it I probably would not have become successful.
@Gettingbettertoday
If your younger one would have taken that warning they might have looked for and found another way to become successful. Do you think that's a possibility?
@amiablePeace77
Without a way to handle the fear I would have accomplished nothing, like I do now.

Try to not worry. Everything will work out even if things seem bleak now. You will get through the pain. I see success in your future and contentment. Just let it be. Make an effort every day but do not exhaust yourself trying too hard. You have got through so much so far, you will get through everything. Just develop patience and have compassion for others. They are challenged in similar ways to the way you are. Life is not always easy but keep on keeping on. I am with you even now. Never forget that. I will never leave you. Go on.
@soulsings
That sounds very encouraging 👍
Dont worry about what people think of you or the opinion they have about you just dont care about any of that and just be yourself.
@yournotalone247
Just be yourself 👍
@amiablePeace77
You are STRONG. You are BRAVE. You are CAPABLE. You are WORTHY. You are BEAUTIFUL. You are AMAZING! You are LOVED ❤️
@CaringSub
Regardless of what others say, impose or believe.
@CaringSub
You're a wonderful friend to your younger self!
@amiablePeace77
Thank you. I have to be. As, in the end, no one has my back, except me.
- It's better to not have friends than it is to have toxic ones.
- Don't get too attached to certain people and invest all of your energy into them.
- Make sure to always try to take care of yourself first but still make room to be compassionate and kind.
- Your feelings are valid and don't have to match with everyone else's.
@DitaBear
Those are very helpful things to share with your younger self!
@amiablePeace77
I would say what I try to say now: you are safe now, everything will be okay. We survived. Things will work out just believe. ☀️
@kala
Sounds very comforting kala!
@kala great advice to your younger self.
I would tell myself to stop looking to other people for love, acceptance, and support. Spend time with yourself, develop your interests, and lean on God. Don’t try to conform to what someone else wants. Look for a lesson in everything. You can handle anything.
@PiecesOfWhoeverIWas
Sounds very helpful pieces!
Think would have hard sirous long talk, with it's list.
Always felt stupid, but point in time, something happend changed life way different road and would talk to about, but locked in it now, by being stupid.
Also would tell, to listen more to self, when haveing feeling, maybe bad and not push it away and shake head, say exsample like....
"maybe just me. I would never so to my self, so why would the other person, so it to me. I would never treat them so. I am awfull think/feel so. Maybe just be thinking too much or over worrying. Me is the problem." (Then later find out, was right and should have listen more.)
@BwButterflyX
I believe listening more to self, acknowledging feelings instead of pushing them away is a good advice!
Not to give up. Efforts do payoff in the end.
Thanks very much, appricate ❣️ (Kind off you!) ❤️ 🌺
Try hang in. One of the best motivation. (Try remind my self, when far down.) Is those close to me, seem always think, I can tough everything/anything out, sooner or later.
(Say often, exsample "if you can't handle it, no can. You can handle everything. You been trough so much, yet beaten the odds often and won. Don't be so hard on your self. You will find some way, sooner or later. Keep be stubborn and patiance. No one perfect, all so errors tó times." But tbh not rare, I often try not so any errors pretty hard, but often when I do, often big errors, didn't wanna, so it pushed me often to try harder not do errors, witch part why they can say, don't be so hard on your self .)
What ever hits me. Try live up to what they see in me or belive in me. (I know I have it in me, to be, what they see, but not always easy, live up to.. Been able done many good things, beacouse when able to be, good seen in me... Makes very happy if able be, the good, they may see in me...) Sometimes get frusrated or other such emotions, when I feel I do not so, that well and not able be exactly want, can exsmaple weaken my faith some and negative toughts doupt and list feeling not rare. I want to be the good, they see in me. (Just can be hard sometimes see/be exactly how they maybe think.) They in way, often forget, sick/not top form. Exsample nerve damage Crps, so often forget. They say the reason is, beacouse doesn't notice it well and used able handle....)
Don't either understand fully, all parts off the struggles. Can feel with some things, I can't fully talk about t them/talk with them and I do not have really anyone able to.
Often hear often, from those close to me. I must be between one of the worlds unluckiest pepole, yet always seem find some way, hang in, still happy small things and smile. Wish good, even if bad. I may srug shoulder, say "idk. I just try."
Not used to much attention, so feels wired and can make blush or such. Often try make me small or such lol
Culture come from, often cheer often others by saying exsample "ah no worries. (Some "thats nothing. Isn't at problem. Forget it.") You can handle it. You will toughen it out." Toughen it out and so not talk about our problems fully freely her. Specially don't talk much about, exsample fighting inner demons....) Notice many of other countries, are more open.
I do not know, how much others see or do not see. But am trying very hard, to work on my self and get better. Try different things, to try see what may help, even tough not fully sure, what exactly will help.
