Dear 13-Year-Old-Kelly,
You know what I love about you? How naive you are. You are so happy in your unknown innocence. And I love that.
You think you're becoming popular, and because of this, your confidence is growing. I am so happy for you that you think that.
You think a boy likes you. And that makes you smile. That makes you smile more than anything in the world.
You know you are smart. You do your homework right. You study. You get As, sometimes Bs. You like school.
You're undecided about what you want to do for the rest of your life, but you want to go to college. You want to learn.
I don't know what to tell you. Prepare yourself. Guard your heart. Guard your life. Guard your passion.
Don't forget who your friends are. Don't cut people off because you want to climb to the top. Don't sacrifice who you are to be someone else.
Try not to be jealous. Know when to vocalize your jealousy and when to keep your mouth shut.
Keep your eyes open.
All my love,
23-year-old Kelly
