RE: 'PowerHouseCreatives Contest' 🌺A letter to Carolina on her 15th 🌺

“If I had it to do all over again, what would I do different …”Very enjoyable post @carolinacardoza, as it is certainly thought provoking to consider writing to our 15-year old selves. How often do we hear, from our fellow travelers though this life, some variation of the age-old question,

Unfortunately, we learn soon enough there is no going back, no matter how desperately we might wish to do so. Not an option. Only forward, so hopefully …

”They say that in life we must make our own mistakes and we must learn from them …”

… we will learn our lesson, through the inevitable mistakes we are going to make, so we are not condemned to a life of being enslaved by and endlessly repeating them.

At the end of it all …

”And love others, remember that what you sow in this world you will reap the same, so I invite you to value the friendships, to appreciate and love them as they are, do not want to change them ever, just accept them and you will earn their love and respect.”

.. our unconditional love for others is an essential lesson we must learn, if we are to reach our “golden years” with a large measure of the joy and peace so dearly sought by us all.

And, finally, …

”… respecting your parents and understanding them is not easy, many times you think they are against you, but it is not so …”

… very wise words, which remarkably few of us seem to understand. Until it is very late …

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. You did a very nice job of it. All the best to you going forward on your "journey" on our Steem blockchain! 😊 👍
