Missing the innocents...

Do you ever feel like life just flies right by you at times?

You turn around for one moment and you're 12 and just started middle school.  The next moment you're 15 and a freshman thinking about how your childhood is almost over.

Then you blink and your freshman year is over.

I would give anything to get back that innocents we had as children.  When you wonder about everything at once and make mistakes that your parents always fix...wow, life is so short.

I think it's a little too short for YOLO.  You know, "You Only Live Once."  I think it's only long enough for YOL.  (You Only Live).

I'm going to live with no regrets.  No running away.  No turning back.

Simply Live.

With much love,

Lil Red

Perfect?

Perfect…..I have often pondered that word. Why is it a word if nothing is perfect? I think that we were set up to fail. Given false expectations. Given false hope. 

Why would we use a word like “perfect” if it is not meant to be used? I say don’t change yourself to be perfect or what the media portrays as “perfect.” Be your own kind of perfect. There has only been one thing on this earth that was ever truly perfect. 

So don’t set yourself up to fail. Don’t look with envy. Don't change yourself to fit others expectations.  Be who you are.  Who you want to be.  Who you can be. 

With much love,
