I heard an interview this afternoon. The interviewer asked the person "what would you tell your 15 year old self?"
It got me thinking what I would tell her. That was in the middle of a particularly dark period of my life. I was living in a home with an abusive, alcoholic father and a co-dependent mother who acted as if nothing was wrong. One week after my father threw my older brother out of the house he (brother) was killed in an accident. If I could talk to that depressed stressed out kid I'd tell her to hang in there, that it will get better. My father used to tell me to enjoy my teen years because they would be the best of my life. I'd think "then just kill me now." I'd tell the 15 year old he was lying through his effing teeth, that better years were ahead. That, eventually, I'd have a good life. So, what would you tell the younger you? |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
