- Have more four a.m. dance parties by yourself. With your siblings. More late nights laughing with friends, more bonfires and fireworks, more stupid choices and lessons learned. Enjoy your youth a little more.
- Stress less. Cry less over homework, over projects procrastinated and tests piling up; save up all those tears for laughter, for unbearable happiness. Be okay with less than perfect.
- Learn to eat that second cookie. Know when to load up on the greens and cut out the crap, and when to let go. Enjoy eating, taste everything. Stop stepping on the scale.
- Be more vulnerable. Stay up all night just to figure out the universe, talk about everything. Find that person: the one to tell everything. Then, tell them everything. Find relief in being understood.
- Be more than silly. Take that risk to go to a karaoke night though you can't hit the notes. Dance like nobody's watching (chances are, they're not). Speak your mind even when you feel your voice trembling. Be BOLD!
- Breathe. Go for walks every week, look at the stars whenever they're out, take bubble baths. Find a space and don't let anyone take it away. Live in the moment and love every second of it.
- Love yourself. Every last scar and bump. Every missed questions and failed idea, every little quirk. Love yourself until you understand why others love you too.
- Survive. Thrive.
