13 things my dad forgot to tell me before he died:
not everyone will feel or think the way you do and that’s okay
scraped knees and sprained ankles will hurt but self hatred will **** you the most
it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all
read as many books as you can in your lifetime
allow yourself to feel and experience the things in life that scare you the most, you will grow from these and learn valuable information
don’t let the way others treat you affect how you view yourself, you are not nothing
your education is important but there’s more to life than high grades
the prettiest rose still has thorns so be careful with who you pick up
cameras can’t capture the full beauty of the earth so put down your electronics and go sight seeing with just your eyes and maybe a lover
others may give up and give in but that doesn’t mean you should follow them
it wasn’t your fault
i’m sorry for leaving
i love you
