Advice Quote by Greta Lee

“If I could give advice to seven-year-old Greta, it would be: Be kind to yourself. Spend less time trying to be pretty and cool. Your friends from school will notice your house is full of dried persimmons and ornate Korean earpickers, and they'll still want to be your friend.” quote by Greta Lee — Download Open image
