Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, You’re 18 now. How does it feel to have that freedom? Is it as scary as I thought? You’ll be okay you know. Take a breath. Growing up isn’t as scary as you may think. You can’t live life always worrying about what comes next, That’s not living. You have to live life knowing that you won’t always be able to predict your next step, and you need to make choices based on that. You can’t always be so scared of what you don’t know. Nobody knows everything. The more you don’t know, the more you have a chance to learn! Don’t be scared. Just breathe.
