Advice every teen should know.

-Treat others how you'd like to be treated yourself-
You'll never know what a person is feeling and how hard it is to get bullied and it can only lead to tears unless you treat people kindly.

-Crying doesn't make you weak-
You'll prob laugh about what you're crying about in 5 years. IDK about death...but It'll not seem as bad though.

-Respect your parents or whoever looks after you-
You'll need them in later life and show you're thankful.(plus you'd be parents one day)

-The only person you can truly trust is yourself-
Friends and family do let you down at times. Don't run to someone because you think it's easier, u'd be used and let down.

-Start loving yourself-
Only you can change you, if a bf or gf is trying to change you so much you don't feel you anymore, let them go. A true lover will love you for being yourself.

-Work hard at school-
At least to the point you pass exams. It will benefit you in life and easier to pass them when your young than years later.

-Don't party your dreams away-
Say you want to have a successful job in life, well it's not easy to get to the top if you party as much as you can. Balance school and social life. School should come first. If you got a big test coming up but, your friend invited you to a party...don't be shy to say "no I should study instead".
Always another party , but not really another exam.

-Life is too short to fret-
If you like a guy just tell him, the moment will otherwise pass and you'll never know if he likes you back....Pick friends wisely as if they give you too much grieve find new people to hang with.

-Create your own style-
Don't have to wear what your friends wear to fit in.
A true friend will like you wherever you go and whatever you wear. Wear clothes that suit you and not your social life.

Rule number 1 of life

Rule #1 of life: Don't take life too seriously and base/judge your life based on other peoples.

This means have as much fun in life as you can. It's ok to do different things to people you know. It's great to go down your own path of happiness. 

Basing your life on what other people achieve and set out to live their life isn't healthy.

Thinking something on lines of "What has [insert name here] got that I don't to be able to get an amazing husband/partner", it's only going to make you feel bad.

Life is there to have fun with and enjoy. Not living in somebody else's shoes e.g. mother saying she wants you to do a profession like doctor. (a high up job when you rather be a singer for example).

Push yourself to achieve goals yes, but don't get angry or sad when you fail on hurdle. Many more hurdles to over come in years to come. No point fretting. No point wasting time crying about not succeeding at one path. Simply dust yourself down and either try again or try a different path.

suicidal sadness

It saddens me that so many people out there are suicidal, depressed, cutting themselves or silently going through pain.

In this world people shouldn't have to suffer alone. Nobody has to feel so down that cutting or suicide is only way they can cope with it. It's a great shock to my system knowing someone close to me feels like this. All you have to do is be a shoulder to cry on, a friend to chat to or a person to welcome them into your heart.... not exactly pick up the pieces and solve their problems but, help them know you care and are there for them.

Some people might think being alone is better as nobody can hurt them.

Unfortunately it's not the case. They only go and hurt themselves. We are social creatures and the feeling of being alone is better, is unhealthy. Sooner or later you'd need help in life and nobody is there to help and you're left crying and struggling. 

 Say to the world "you don't have to put me down...I'm better than you" 

The world is a big scary place if you let it suck you in. Yes there is a lot of negative things out there.
There are a lot of great things too. If everyone was negative, depressed and thinking the world is too much of a struggle...nobody would get up in morning and it would be a stand still of life. 
Nobody to fill supermarkets for food, nobody to clean up, no friendships made and nobody to save your life when your ill as we'd all be too depressed to live.

So, moral of this message is to be someone's shoulder to cry on and if you're in unfortunate event of being depressed... look up at the stars and say "You don't have to out me down, I can get through this" 

There is always a star shining just for you. A star out there shining and guiding you on.

Life is a game...

Life is a game we all play with rules given to us, some to be learnt and others to be followed or even broken.... AND we all dream for life to be our version of perfect but it never really is so. 

We have to learn to fit in like a jigsaw puzzle piece the best we can. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 There isn't really any easy way to do this life business. You can sit there and suffer in silence thinking 'I hate my life' or some other negative thought...hurting yourself is another way people cope. OR You can get off your backside and do something about whatever you dislike about life. Sitting there everyday wishing life would change in any way shape or form while going about life the same way you do everyday is stupid. It's the way many people go about life.

 Everyone is in a sea of people struggling for a place they belong. It's a game. It's unfair. It's a challenge. I am one lonely person trying to swim to the surface of the people but pushed down by the current or swarm of people leaping above me like dolphins out of the water.

 What I'm trying to say is that life is not easy even for those who you think is. (they're probably good at hiding it) If you dislike how life is going right now then try and change it. Move away from people who bring down life or change the way you think of life. p.s. I'm not saying I am winning this life game. I'm clearly stating you are not the only person who wants a perfect version of life for them.
