“There is so much drama everywhere! Listen, wherever you go, whatever you do there will be issues. Someone, somewhere, is going to have an problem with you! That's life. You can't make people like you. But you can choose not to respond in kind. Be the person that makes the difference. Stand up for what you believe in. Smile! Laugh! Don't get caught up in the he said, she said. Live life with reckless abandon. Be kind to people, even if they aren't kind to you. Love wisely. Learn and grow. You have to figure out now, how not to get upset at everything. But don't close off your emotions. Never be ashamed to cry. It doesn't show weakness, but helps soothe the pain. Dance like no one's watching. Do one thing everyday that scares you. Keep your friends close, and don't let petty differences ruin close relationship. You have your whole life ahead of you to find love. Don't feel the need to have a partner to feel complete. You can be single, and be okay. Live life like you were dying.”
