Hi,
It is a message from a stranger that just hope you are okay.
I don't know if you get this message needing to hear this, if not it may be better for you to read it when you will need it.
Anyway.
Sometimes life can be kinda harsh. You must already know that, but when you're feeling like sh*t, remember you're not alone.
You have yourself and you will live with that beautiful person until the day you die... that hope will not be soon. Because you deserve to live, and live well. You can hate yourself, we do a little or a lot, but will that solve living with ourselves ?
And even if sometimes death or ways to hurt ourselves seem like good option, it's defitely not the solution. Because you matter. And you deserve more than pain and hatred and unfairness and emptiness. You deserve what life has best to offer. And if you didn't get a taste of that yet, it will happen someday.
So yes, you have youself but also others. Let's say more than 7.5 billion people are living right now, at the same time you're doing, and they all go through bad moments. We're all humans and all of our feelings are valid. Even the bad ones. Never let anyone make feel otherwise.
We're all reaching for happiness but in order to do that we must somehow be at peace and so accept our moments of doubt and sadness. We must accept who we are and what we're living.
You also have people around you. Your family that can be a constant in your life, that can help you with what they can offer you morally or by other ways. And if they don't or you simply don't get along with them, that's okay. We are born not even chosing to live to start with. And we don't chose who we're bloody related to.
You also have your friends or at least people that are nice to you. I hope they make you feel safe, adored and at ease. Bonus point if they make you laugh because it feels good to laugh. And yep, it is also normal to not always feel good with yourself when you are with others, even close ones.
And if you do not have the right persons around you now, nothing stop you from meeting new and better ones for you. We all deserve a friend.
There's also many other people that care about you. That do not want you to hate life and feel bad, they don't always show it, mostly because they don't know you enough but they want what's best for you.
So do strangers. So do I.
Somehow we're all lonely people. And somehow we all need help.
So take care of yourself and enjoy your life the way you feel it. It is your life afterall. And life gets better and sometimes worse but go through it ;)

Have I done like a 2nd letter here ? I don't see what you're talking about lol. The right answer is yes even if it wasn't anticipated.
If you want to know some stuff on that stranger :
I'm soon 17. I love to read, listen to music, watch series and movies and go out with friends. I wish I could do that last one more, so this summer I will do my best to make that happen. And I know I'm lucky to have always fell on the right type of people, some lasted and some didn't because they weren't the right friends for me. That's when I laugh with friends that I realize how lucky I am. And I wish other can feel that too.
I will soon have my result of a school exam. I'm sort of the academic kid so I think I pass but I wonder about how much. And yes even academic kids are not confident about school because we always expect them to suceed. Just so you know. We're all having difficult time at school, just with different reasons to cope with. And no, having bad grades doesn't mean being stupid.
I don't always get along with my parents, and I accept it. I don't always get along with myself, and I accept it. I never liked my body so I worked on my mind, I can't say I succeed because I still don't like part of it but it's okay. I think I can live with that mind for a while.
Most of the time I feel pointless. I mean it's true, I don't bring much to the world. If I was dying, not many people would care. Then I think about strangers I see such as my classmates, people walking in the street, or even those I meet once on social medias (tiktok hum). And I wonder if they maybe think the same way as me. And it makes me realize that I want to see them smile, with a real smile, I don't them to hate the wonderful person they are, and if something would happen to them, I would be sad. It would matter to me. So maybe I would matter to them too.
We're a lot to feel the same, so why don't we help each other saying it loud ? I can't really do it in real life, so this letter became my way to express what I think and I hope I can help someone even if it has to be for few minutes.
You matter. You're important. And you will find the something you always seem to be looking for not knowing what or who it is. Fate does most of the work. The rest is up to you and how you decide to make your life.
Enjoy it. Make you not regret it.
Goodbye dear stranger, have an amazing life :)
PS : If you read this, congrats, that was actually long lol
PPS : Sorry if I did spelling mistakes, English isn'y my native language

Stop talking dirty online
It's really past the concept and not worth the while when it's a dirty gesture that should be between you and the person in real life not on technology, it's di...
I receive your positivity and I I am grateful for it. Thank you!
In return I can say to you that your English is good. It is very understandable. Even where you make mistakes.
I would recommend finding English Language content that you like and diving into the sensory experience of listening to how the language is spoken by real people in order to express ideas. Find your favorite movie scenes, songs, stand up comedy routines, academic lectures, audiobooks, whatever... And just try to repeat the syllables that you hear during the best parts, your favorite lines, your favorite sentences. And get to know the sound and texture of spoken English. (And if you want a harder challenge try comparing different spoken dialects this way).
The thing that is clear from the way you write is that your flow of thought, does not easily match the common English Language flow of thought. We (native speakers) don't think about why we say things the way we do, or verb, noun, order, structure of sentences or anything. We learn that in school, yes, but that just teaches us the "why" to a "what" that we already all know about from experience: that feeling when something somebody says just doesn't sounds quite right somehow. It's sort of like a vague sense of unease provoked by a strange turn of phrase or using parts of a sentence in the wrong order, or something like that. But the English Language flow of thought is amazing because it is a logical chaos. And it can be beautiful or ugly.
But the truest secret to my own personal love and understanding of the English language is actually a silly little superstition that I have. But even though I know it's just a superstition I just can't shake it. See, I believe that I'd you use the English language to lie or mislead others that it will always fail you and let you down. But when you use it to speak only truth, you will always be understood.
Thanks again for the generous writing. And I hope this goofy little ramble of mine about language was somehow helpful to you. Good day/night.
