words from a photograph.

Lately, I've been thinking about everything.
But, something really came to my mind to think about.

I looked at a picture of me from when I was about five years old. And it came to me. That girl, from ten years ago, didn't experience the times that I had to go through. All the times I couldn't stop crying, she has no idea. She has no idea of whats ahead. She didn't tell stupid boys tear her heart away. She was smarter than she is now. When I went to help out at the elementary school, it made me think. These kids have years ahead of them. They haven't met people who will change them, they haven't been places that will change them to take a different view.

It's just amazing to think now, oh our lives suck. Actually, ten years from now you will look back at pictures of your highschool years. Cracking up at the thought that you thought everyday your world was going to end. You will be happy, and wish you would have just put trust in God that you were going to make it out alive. Because you'll look back and realize you did.

Stop worrying about how happy you will be in the future. Stop taking time out of your prsent live to think about how the future will be. You are living in the past, present, and future. Leave the past behind, learn from it. Enjoy the minutes you are currently living. And have trust that your future will be bright. You are the only one to make your furute how you want it. But remember, live for today. The future will come soon enough.
