5 Things I'd Tell My 18-Year-Old Self
1. Take your fu*king time! I was one of the millions of kids at the age of 18 that decided to take herself off to university. I nailed my A-Levels and spent months researching and picking a university course. I was told by everyone that if I wanted a good job, then this was what I needed to do. The problem was, I knew all along that it didn’t quite feel like the right time to go. I wasn’t entirely convinced that the career path I’d chosen was for me. Here I was at 18-years-old, trying to convince myself that teaching was for me based on four A-levels!!!!!!

Manifestation
Everything is connected. View yourself as a plant. Your mind is the seed, forever the Ying to heart both supporting your growth. Your arms, mouth, ears, hands, feet, all of you creates one, the flower, forever growing with each day's trails and triumphs. Everything living is connected, did you know words were of the living as well? Think about it. This is why "watch what you say" and "be careful what you ask for" because words HAVE VALUE.

Important Life Lessons
The painful times are the most rewarding later. I distinctly remember moments in my life where I thought “ I can’t do this” and I couldn’t envision moving past that current state of pain I was in. Now I can look back on those times with gratitude seeing how they shaped me into the woman I am today. Remembering that God will never put something in my path that cannot be conquered helps me to keep pushing. It gives me the mindset that I can handle it. Whatever “it” is.

Today
Dear reader, Today has been quite long. I can tell you are waiting for it to end more peacefully than it started. I'm afraid that I can't help with that. I apologize. If you have time, you can reflect. Take a moment to think about what you had for breakfast so many hours ago. Think about why you ate that. Do you like eating breakfast? Were you hungry for it? Are you hungry now?

10 Things I Learned After Quitting My Office Job as a Designer, Leaving My Life Behind, and Moving to Australia with My New Boyfriend
Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could quit your job, say f*ck this and literally throw things up in the air?! Who doesn't want to live a different life sometimes, or all the time? This is probably one thing most people think of doing, some even think about it constantly, but in the end don't actually do it. That's because this kind of action requires a whole lot of courage. It's not easy leaving your safe income, your home, your friends and family, your dog, your dance class, your favourite bar or even your favourite food behind. It's hard getting out of our comfort zone for a reason. We get attached. But why put up with certain things we are discontent about? Like a job, a marriage, a city, a whole country? No matter what the reason might be, we will always have the option to change things. In the end it's really up to you. You have the option to stay or leave. Yes, it is scary, things can go wrong, but it's soooo worth it.

After reading it, I thought of a list I have in the Notes app on my phone in which I continuously compile a list of moral life lessons I learn as I go through life.
