I am the sea and nobody owns me

i don't know what younger person needs to hear this, but it is so valid to not want to drink alcohol at all, or to only want to drink very rarely. don't let others pressure you into joining in with those societal rituals. it is an outrage how normalized drinking alcohol is, to the point that those who choose to abstain are constantly forced to justify their private choices, be publicly questioned about what led to these choices or excluded from activities altogether. you do not ever need to justify your reasons for this. there are absolutely valid and important reasons to not drink, and nobody has a right to know your personal reasonings.

i cried he crode too and we crade together

idk who needs to hear this, but your wants are not outrageous. you want love? you want attention? you want peace? you want comfort? you deserve it. you're not asking for too much.

You'll meet people who'll be so good to you that you'll end up being grateful that you didn't close off your heart when you got hurt.

calm your mind, darling. you're on no one's journey but your own. pace yourself and live your life the way you want to. don't let someone else's idea of success make you feel like you've chosen the wrong path. your journey may look different to everyone else's, but it's yours.
