A piece of advice I would give to my younger self...
The person that was part of your family that isn't there anymore. Whether it's the beginning or the end, whether you would like to remember it or would like to forget it, I honestly think that I would tell myself that you need to just pay attention. Some memories are going to stick. Some memories like prom and graduation and so many other events will pop in your mind. But, I mean, you have to really pay attention. How do you feel?

I think it really can be really powerful. Thank you so much for sharing. I really, really liked what you're saying here, and it was nice to hear and also think about those moments in early life, life and childhood and adolescence. Really lovely. Thank you

I love that. That was very beautiful. Thank you for sharing that. Seize the day, right? Carpe diem
And I know that I take the time with them to look at things and I sit and wonder in awe of them and what they're experiencing, and I try to help them savor the moment of experiencing life. But thank you again. I appreciate your comments. Bye
We get to experience these things. Yeah. Some of them suck and are so hard and make you wish that you could escape from those moments. They cause tears and they cause sadness and they cause pain. But I honestly believe that everything that is coming to life in our lives is for a reason, for a purpose. And it may be not for you, but somebody will see your story or hear your story or be a part of the story, and they are living their reality of it

I don't play around with the app enough to know how to do all the little things, but if you see it in my feed is a post about libraries and bookstores is kind of inspired by some things that you said about stories and storytelling and interactions with people and the importance of taking time to savor the moment. So I just wanted to let you know that you inspired that. Thank you so much and I hope you have a fantastic day
