To My 10 Year Old Self
I started writing diaries when I was 10 years old. Looking back now the content is more comical than anything else.- sibling rivalries, frenemies and the word "buff" appears way too much.
At the time, particularly when I was around 15 and 16, some issues would have signified the end of the world - nope, the end of the universe.
Thinking about that time has given me a renewed empathy for my nieces and nephews, or any young person, who is at that age or coming into that age. What you feel and experience is real and valid. There may be times that are painful and really embarrassing but you will also gain a strength and a deeper understanding of who you and where you want to be.
