What advice would you give to your teenage self?

I have a list of things I would tell my teenage self.

Love yourself first.

Don’t compare yourself with others

Don’t seek validation for inclusion.

Your talent is also unique.

You have a unique and beautiful name.

Your complexion is fine as it is.

You are stronger than you think.

You don’t need friends who don’t respect you.

Eating alone is fine, no one is judging you.

Let everything go…

This was a bit emotional to write. I still have many things to add, but, let’s just leave it till here.
