Life's advice from a girl who's living, dreaming, and struggling through it all.
Sometimes, the little things in life are the ones you should be cherishing. After all, the greatest gifts come in small packages, right? Take a step back from this busy world and watch the place and people around you.

Do you ever look back at your childhood, to the time when everything was simple ? Those days, you could be carefree and not worry about being judged by others. What reminds you of those days: crayons, Elmer's glue, snack time ? Remember when the most important thing to us was having that 64 pack of crayons with the built-in sharpener ? Nothing lasts forever - not even photographs. What stays is in our memories, and even so they can never be recreated. We must remind ourselves each day to cherish every moment of our lives, to live every day like the last. Sometimes I can close my eyes and already, I can hear the other children giggling, and feel the wax on my fingertips from grasping those giant crayons. But as I open my eyes again, I realize it is just a part of my past, and that I must move on along with time. Take action; you cannot wait, because nothing in life is guaranteed. Even if you are unsure, afraid, doubtful about the future, there's nothing you can lose, as the things in life that are worth the most will stay by your side.
