The Shape of Me

Daily writing prompt
What advice would you give to your teenage self?

Nothing.

As everything I’ve been through has shaped me into who I am now. I know it’s sounds cliché. But it is what it is. I truly cherish and honor my youth. As I have tried all the best I could do to fill my youth. Indeed the word “the best” in each other’s perspectives will be different. But at least I knew what I wanted, and I knew my goals were. Yes true, the journey was not always perfect, actually it’s full of mistakes. I saw my teenage self doing silly things, as I would feel ashamed if I remembered them again. But there was always a lesson I could take. And from that silly experiences I improved my self day by day. It hits different if I only heard from the others. Wise man says : Experience is the best teacher!

If I could meet my teenage self, I would say to her : Dear My Teenage Self, I’m proud of you. You’ve been doing well. Indeed, you make mistakes but you also learn from them. That’s what shaped me into the person I am today. Thanks a bunch!

Love,

Kirana
