With the summer here, and the heat unbearable outside (Don't make fun of me, 85 and up is WAY too hot out), I've been talking to a lot of new people on dA. I've had great conversations with so many of you. But I figured I'd share some of the things I've learned this summer. Maybe then can help a few of you out there as much as it helped me.

As long as you keep an open mind, life with keep you safe.

Things happen for a reason: to make you stronger, to help others that are having a hard time by giving them advice on how you got by.

Everything you do is a line in a book, but you get to decide the way it goes. Don't let others write your book. Live how you want to, and when you do that, you'll be happy with whatever you do.

It's your choice whether you grow up or not, nobody can tell you otherwise. Getting older happens but growing up is optional.

Keep your head up, looking down you don't get to see all of the worlds beauty. You miss out on things that could have changed your whole life, made it better made it worse. It's a risk you have to take and learn from it. Try harder next time, and in the end everything will pay off.


Who knows, maybe it's just me that is scared to make a choice on schools, an how to live. But I think that everyone worries about the decisions they make and how it will affect the rest of their life. I don't know maybe I'm crazy. But I hope it helped at least on other person, because then I know I've done something right!
