Dear Susan,
As I sit here, emotions swirling like a tempest in my heart, my thoughts turn to the innocence of youth and the tender wisdom it lacked. These gentle insights are akin to melodies, creating a song I long to sing to the girl I once was:
1. Tears are Healing Rain:
Let your tears fall freely, for they possess the healing power to cleanse your spirit and mend your heart.
2. Listen to Your Body's Silent Narratives:
Your body whispers stories of both joy and sorrow. Learn to listen, for within these whispers lies profound understanding.
3. Dream Bold and Beautifully:
Dream unapologetically, for dreams are the guiding stars illuminating the path to your true destiny.
4. Writing is part of Your Calling (say what?!):
Embrace the magic of words, for within the dance of language, you'll discover the melody of your soul. When someone calls “writers”, look back. You are a writer in the making full of hope.
5. Courage in Seeking Help:
Asking for help is an act of courage, a step towards healing and growth. Let your voice be heard.
6. Time Knits, but You Mend:
Time may weave the fabric of your experiences, but it's your courage and actions that truly heal your wounds.
7. Present Moments, Future Dreams:
Cherish the past, but dream of the future. In this delicate balance, you'll find the essence of living.
8. Things Change and That's Okay:
Understand that life's tides will ebb and flow, and what seems monumental today might be a memory tomorrow.
9. A Purpose in Every Thread:
Each thread in life's tapestry holds a purpose and a lesson. Seek the wisdom in every stitch.
10. Wander and Wonder:
Embrace the unknown, for it's in wandering to distant horizons that you'll truly learn to hear and find your soul.
With love and whispers of wisdom,
By Susan's Past-Self, *giggles*.
