Dear Holly, my advice is to talk to your parents (one or both). Open up, they love you and will help you in whatever situation you are in. They WANT to be there for you. They WANT to help you. They WANT you to talk to them about the big and small things. Remember they love you.
Dear Holly, Be yourself, don’t care what others think of you, don’t let them put you down. Don’t judge a book but it’s cover. Be a leader, not a follower.
Dear Holly, you don’t need to meet any beauty standards – you’re beautiful the way you are! Be yourself and love yourself! xxx
Dear Holly, If you’re lost now, it’s fine. You have time. 10 years onwards, you’re still lost, also fine. You’ll alway have time. Just remember to be safe & be able to get out of any situation you get into. You’ve got nothing but time, Holly, remember that.
Dear Holly, What advice I can give you, I want you to reach for the stars and enjoy where life takes you. You will have many positive and negative experiences during your life time. Just embrace them all. Believe in yourself, stay true to yourself.
Dear thirteen year old self, although things haven’t quite fallen into place yet, you’ll grow to learn that you’ll never stop changing. Rather than being scared to take a little step further – free yourself from these habits, chores and negative people you associate with. What’s the worst thing that could happen? You do’t have to be any one thing!
Dear Holly, don’t get caught up with the crowd. do what you want and be confident. Study hard bu have fun, be spontaneous and take risks, but be careful. Focus on school, it’s important.
Dear Holly, let the past stay in the past.
Dear Holly, be more confident around people you don’t know. Experience meeting new people and new situations in a positive way.
Dear Holly, if you’re stuck with bad situations like drugs criminal activities, don’t give up. I was in that position. I’ve gotten out of that now I’ll be successful.
Dear Holly, The advice I would give you would be… don’t take so long to do the things you want and if you want something do it. and do it now because it can be the last opportunity you can get. Stay classy (watch Anchorman and you’ll get it)
Dear Holly, Seize every opportunity available to you. The more experiences you have (whether they are good or bad) the more you will learn about life, yourself and others. And don’t forget to enjoy each moment, appreciate your teenage years – they are so fun & exciting.
Believe in your self worth! Trying to be some one else is not going to get you far. Work hard for your self and people will realise your worth! xx
– Never give up on something that you love, no matter how hard it get.
– Be yourself, love yourself and don’t ever be afraid to stand up for what you believe in.
– Do what you love and want to not what others want you to do because the choices are yours just don’t make stupid choices.
Dear Holly, you determine your self worth. Don’t let others change who you are. You can be as amazing as you choose to be. So work hard, play hard and most importantly, love yourself.
Dear Holly, from my personal experience, cherish every moment you have. Enjoy it, make the most of it. Do not be afraid to be yourself, because the best person you can truly be is you. Take every opportunity that you are interested in, it helps you to find yourself,. Make friends, be happy and positive. Godlike, I know you will be great! From C.
Be Happy🙂
Making mistakes is a part of life and a part of learning! Don’t sweat the little things, learn from them, always look at the bigger picture, and don’t let life bring you down. Always smile!😀
Dear Holly, don’t let people get you down! Always do what you want and what you enjoy!🙂
Dear Holly, Keep you mind open. Keep it open to ideas, possibilities, and most of all, people. Don’t be judgemental – you don’t have the first clue what people are going through. Just because someone is different from you does not make them lesser. You have more in common than you might think.
Don’t do things just because everyone else is doing it.
Stay true to yourself & your beliefs
Dear Holly, if you are worried about being loved and fear you’ll never fall in love, don’t. People love you, even if you don’t know it yet. And there are more important things to worry about.
Dear Holly, Keep doing what you are doing! Don’t care about what other people think because it won’t matter in the long run. Do things that make you happy and know that there are always people who will support you. xx
When you know where your stand in a situation, don’t feel pressured to follow others and speak up for yourself when necessary.
Dear Holly, be yourself! Don’t worry about what others think of you! Just have fun doing what you enjoy🙂
– don’t procrastinate
– persevere
– be the best version of yourself
– go for gold!!!
Dear Holly, You’re going to feel confused about your place in the world. You’re going to feel a desire to grow up too fast. Girls are going to say mean things. So are boys. Be strong, it will be hard but you’ll get through. Be confident, don’t let other people bring you down. Being a young woman can be difficult, but it’s also empowering. Love yourself, and be kind.
Dear Holly, remember to work hard in everything you do and try new things. Take advantage of opportunities and don’t be afraid to change your mind. Things will change in the coming years; you’ll lose friends & gain some. Just remember to take care of yourself! – Alannah
Dear Holly, make the most of the opportunities you get and try to get involved in as much as you can. Don’t get too stressed about the little things.
Don’t spend too much time on social media, make your own experiences, your own decisions. Make time for your family as wherever you, whatever mistakes you make, how big or small, they will always be there for you!
Dear Holly, when you were 13 you kissed a lot of boys. People taunted you for it and called you unfair names. You felt wrong for doing something you were ready and comfortable to do. Looking back, it hurts so much to think how badly you thought of yourself. Do whatever you feel comfortable with, as long as you’re not hurting others.
Dear Holly, I am writing you a little advice that I learned as I passed through the teenage years. When I look back from the adult phase of my life I think I should have been more involved in community & school activities along with building a strong friendship. Keep up with your awesome studies. Yourself.
Surround yourself with people who make you happy, make decisions that will have a positive impact. Things do get better. Accept everyone🙂 xxx
Dear holly, Look, I know you might hear this often but…. things always get better! It is inevitable that you will go through struggles but your life will never involve failing, only succeeding and learning from your experiences. Every single person on this planet has some kind of flame that needs to be ignited. Some find it hard to achieve that first spark, are you holding the flame? Your always loved no matter what you do…🙂
Dear teenage self, school is a place that causes a lot of stress, contribution and social life. My advice to you is be you, go your own pace and contribute to your dreams and wishes. Always live in the moment and go all the way for your future. Sincerely yours.
Dear Holy, Be open minded and be yourself. Don’t focus on not important stuff.
Dear Holly, Don’t worry about friends so much, focus more on school. If they are your true friends they will support you. Try to stay open minded and think positive! Life is only as fun as you make it.
Dear Holly, Become your own person and don’t be influenced by the words and actions of others.
Sometimes in life bad things happen, but no matter how hard things become, you can and will get through it. You cannot make everyone happy but that doesn’t mean you can’t try. Follow your heart and stick to what you believe in!🙂 xx
Dear Holly, stop stressing about the future, it figures itself out. Always have a goal, it makes working harder at school and after school activities easier. Most importantly, I know it’s hard to know who you are in high school, but be your own person. Now I’m 18 I feel like I have never been so happy. I think that is because I have friends I can be myself with, I express myself through my clothes and I feel valued by my peers. Don’t give in to peer pressure. It is so important to express yourself. Explore who you are. Eventually you will find yourself. Your identity is what makes you valuable.
Dear Holly, Don’t worry about the little things, everything seems important at the time but in the grand scheme of things it really isn’t. Focus on forming some great friendships and have fun🙂 Caity.
Dear Holly, you always have to take little steps to reach your goals in life. Stay happy and never give up on your goals. Stay track of your goals and set little goals to reach that big goal. Love your life to the fullest! x
Dear Holly, Always be yourself. Make sure you follow your dreams and always do what makes you happy. Never be afraid to do what you love. Always finish what you started, don’t back out just because something becomes to hard.
Have fun and make memories. Don’t let anyone get the best of you. Believe in yourself and never give up.
If all else fails, tell a joke!
Dear Holly, all I want to say is that I hope you make sure you’re happy in your life. Remove yourself from all the negativity and just remember that everything works itself out in the end. Just keep your head up!🙂
Dear Holly, Have faith in yourself! Everything will be ok. Love yourself. Who you are is more than enough.
Smiley Face.
Dear Holly, stop worrying about how you look and sound and whether or not people like you. The people who matter will stick with you and the people who don’t, won’t. Stop stressing and being embarrassed. You’ll be fine.
