Hey little dude me.
Listen, you're awkward, socially uncomfortable, and quiet. People who are loud and obnoxious annoy you. You're irrational, hardheaded, and you're gonna get your booty in a lot of bad situations. You won't come out the same, and you'll feel some specific kinds of pain that not everyone feels.
This is how you have to live. This is how it has to be, because despite all the bad things, all the pain, all the anger, all the sadness and tears and loss, there's things worth looking forward to.
You'll live well, even if you're not living on the edge. You'll understand people, and you'll learn to care for them as a person and not just as an emotional sponge. Your experiences will shape you into what you need to become, and what you want to be like.
Not everything will go well. You'll lose hope, and you'll lose feeling. You'll almost lose your life on numerous occasions, for hundreds of reasons.
You need that. You need to learn, and to grow, and to understand why these things happened. You need to feel it.
Life won't be as hard as I make it sound. You'll enjoy life when it's all said and done. Your aunt will finally have the child she's always wanted, two even. You'll be around long enough to watch them grow and be pop flyin'. You'll get a dog, the sweetest and smartest animal in the whole world, and she'll help you get over your initial fear of her. You'll experience knowing a person you want to be with for the rest of your life. You'll find out just how much people mean to you, even the people you don't know just yet. You'll have friends who won't betray you at the drop of a hat, and some who did will grow up enough to ask for forgiveness. It's alright, you can forgive them.
You know how teenagers look so big now? How they just seemed so kind? How you always wanted to be like that?
You'll be better than that.
Yeah, you won't be the best person ever. For every ounce of kindness, you'll have an ounce of ego. You'll be loud when you do speak up, and you'll be passionate. It's fine to be like that, because at least you have opinions to be passionate about. Your brothers get better too, although they never stop being that special brand of annoying.
Everything, everything, you're about to go through will be hard. It will be difficult. You'll give up.
You'll get back up. You'll remember why you can't give up. You'll learn to fight what's wrong and how to fight it well. You won't show mercy to those who do not deserve it, and you'll be glad that you don't. Showing them mercy is just telling them they can do it again.
It'll get worse, but you'll get better.
