1. Time waits for no one

It's scary when I can remember elementary school like it was yesterday and now I'm almost halfway through college

2. Never be afraid to ask for help

Some think asking for help shows weakness when in reality it shows you're human

Going back to number one, time is short. Love those around you because they'll be gone as soon as you know it

You can't mask insecurities by searching for approval from others. You have to accept yourself first before you let others love you.

There is nothing better than a good laugh

6. Sometimes you just have to listen

Advice isn't always necessary. Sometimes you just need to listen to the person

Let out your emotions it doesn't mean you're weak

Clear your mind
