At the age you are now, what would you tell your younger self (the little girl/boy)?

[Ladybj]

I miss you.

 

[hollydolly]

Run away and stay away.....

 

[Pinky]

Things will get better.

 

[peppermint]

I love my life...or I may say I loved my life....We survived many things in our life.....Cancer was the worse for my husband..
So we live life day by day...

 

[retiredtraveler]

Try to be respectful to others (including those you can't stand), make learning/education your priority in life, look for opportunities to better yourself, enrich yourself (legally), and look to always making your future better and try to pass that message to others (who rarely listen).
And find a partner that's worthy of you because it's easier to get through life with a true partner.....

 

[Lc jones]

Every action has consequences good or bad.

 

[Ladybj]

It will not be easy. There will be some VERY difficult days but trust that you will be ok. There will be a lot of good times, fun times and remember and never forget, don't give up, keep going. YOU GOT THIS!!!!

 

[Repondering]

Live in a different time zone than your parents. Love someone and be loved. Raise some kids up to be happy and productive. Work at a reasonably meaningful occupation that you can be content enough to do for forty or so years.
(All things I didn't do.)

 

[Nautilus]

Move to Tahiti. Buy a charter boat.

 

[Gary O']

Hide all yer toys
You'll be rich!


When yer relatives kid you about going home with them.....hold 'em to it
They became extremely wealthy


Thank yer sister more
She saved yer little hind end more than you knew



Pay attention to what's happening
Tell The Man what you want, instead of hanging yer goofy mouth open and staring into space




Everthing else....savor

 

[jujube]

Good ONE fmdog44! And Amazon. Buy stock as soon as you have some spare money.

 

[Lakeland living]

Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Microsoft invest. Find the place on this map and buy everything you can there.

 

[Judycat]

Stand up for yourself and everything adults say isn't necessarily urgent or true.

 

[Aunt Bea]

Call in sick every once in a while.

 

[Lee]

Always have a pet to tell your troubles to, they listen and never tell your secrets.

 

[saintdave]

Give the booze a wide berth and for crying out loud (no matter how much peer pressure) don't take up the fags!!!

 

[saintdave]

With particular emphasis on the fags!!!

 

[IrisSenior]

Listen to your inner voice. It is always right.

 

[mike4lorie]

When I was a much younger man, My Mom would tell me to be careful, because in the long run, it will get you... I wish I had listened, instead of thinking I knew everything... And wish I had continued in school, then following the women and booze... Even though my life could have been much better, I really have NO regrets where I am today...

 

[CrackerJack]

Be wary of who you befriend and one can be fooled as I have been over the decades. Before the Internet and social media where it was face to face befriending mostly, people can be fooled by lack of good judgememt as I was in the early 80's and paid a heavy price.

So my words of caution are stay on guard at all times from teens to seniors as to who you befriend and trust.

 

[charry]

To follow your head and not your heart !!

 

[charry]

Always have a pet to tell your troubles to, they listen and never tell your secrets.
