I feel like life is going by too fast. I'm 13 and I know that I'm really young, but when I think about how I'll be dead in 70 years, I freak out and think that it's going to feel like tomorrow. I mean I just started high school and all I can think about is how in 4 years I'm starting college and becoming an adult. I feel like my life will pass by in a blur and the next time I blink I'll be old. I know I sound completely stupid to other because why would a 13 year old think that they're too old? I think about elementary and middle school and it feels like I went through the whole thing in just a few minutes. It just really scares me that that's how it's going to be for the rest of my life too. I can't think of anything other than the future, and now I feel like it's my biggest fear.

Hi.. I've been trying to journal lately cause I'm un aware what else to do to get these thoughts out of my head. I have tears running down as I'm writing this....
life does go by really fast. But you know what? You can't worry about the future and miss out on the present. The best thing you can do when you're old is look back at your life and have no regrets. You won't be able to do that if you keep worrying about growing up. Take one day at a time and enjoy this moment. Right now. Because you'll never get this day back ever
ReplyThank you for your reply. Yes, I should enjoy my life and don't worry much. I felt much better
ReplyYou're still a kid. Blink and you'll miss it, sure. But doesn't that give you a reason to appreciate all the moments of your life?
Time is a funny thing. It flies by but it also moves slowly. Kiddo, you have plenty of time to make mistakes, learn, grow, fall in love, fail, succeed, dream, achieve, believe, find faith, live your best life, rise, fall, and know the world and all its wonders. Build whatever you want but know it's not a race.
Give yourself some grace and enjoy being 13 for now. That's a tough age to be. High school isn't easy. Hang in there.
ReplyThank you. It's weird being 13 and thinking about these. I shouldn't have done it, because my time is better to spend with making memories rather than worrying. Yes, high school isn't easy hehe. I've finished my assignments and now studying for tomorrow's quiz. I'm glad you address about me being in high school. I really appreciate it, with this great advice, I hope you're happy in life!
