These are some pieces of advice I've gotten before I leave my teenage years behind and some are things that I've had to learn all on my own. There were times when I had to think back to these wise words and analyze the situation I was in again before I finally felt at peace. I hope that someone besides myself can benefit from having these words to look back on.
