If there's a chance for you to send a messenge to yourself who lived five years ago, what would you say to him/her?
Five years ago I was a freshman in the college, if I have the chance to send msg to her (myself five years ago), I would ask her not to spend all the time on study, but have fun and make more friends, be confidence.

I would send a long letter to myself telling me to dump my good for nothing boyfriend sooner and listen to myself and make my own decision.

Five years ago I was a freshman in high school. I also happen to think that was the darkest period of my life. I went through a surly teenager phase. I was a nightmare for my family. I think if I could send that old me a letter I would tell myself to spend time with not just my friends, but also my family. I would tell myself not to worry about who I'd grow up to be in the future, or if that guy would ever notice me. That I'd shape my road to success in the future one day at a time.

Hello Allyoftherain, thank you for your quick reponse. You word is really touching, and no matter what have happened at that time, I hope that you are on the way to success now.
You are still young, it is not too late to set goals, or maybe you already have goals.

Five years ago I was a nursing student, but I had to give up my studies when I became ill. I was really, really sad, because I loved nursing and I loved working with people. Five years I ago my ex-boyfriend and I were still living together, but we had a lot of arguments. If I could send a message to myself five years ago I would say something like this:
"You are very depressed right now, but things will get better. After a while you see things in another perspective, and you will discover that you can work will people without being a nurse. You can do some volunteer work etc and there are lots of other possibilies. One door has been closed, but in the future you will find new doors and new happiness.
Your boyfriend will break up with you in the future, and once again you will feel that everything is over, but that is not true. You will meet someone else and the two of you will get married. Your new relationship will be much better than the relationship you had with you ex. You will be really sad when your ex dumps you, but he actually does you a favor, because your husband will bring you much more happiness than you ex ever did"
