Note to younger self...This thread is meant to be half-serious (at most) OK? Think of a message you would tell your younger self to do/ not do:
E.g. "don't get that 80s perm hairstyle - you'll cringe at the memory of it!"
You sound like you are still young. Part of maturing is learning who to trust and why, and how to tell the difference between good and bad people so you don't get hurt unnecessarily.Stay away from people and trust NO ONE ever.
I have felt that a few times along the way!Stay away from people and trust NO ONE ever.
I remembered the thread I started many months ago. It puts things in perspective. https://vigilantcitizenforums.com/threads/testimonies-of-forgiveness.2705/I have felt that a few times along the way!
People (even the best of them) frequently disappoint me, but I stopped expecting perfection from them and looked to Jesus instead (especially as I know how flawed I have been, and still am to a degree).
We all deserve rejection but need mercy!

More serious one:
Long version " Having a good reputation is much better than being popular, even if that means you are called a goody two shoes, crawler or made fun of in the process."
Simple version " better to have no friends than BAD friends".
On a similar note - buy shares in Google and Amazon!'Buy gold, dude... every 20 your grandma slips into your birthday card, every 5-spot you can get selling Nintendo games... put it all in gold!'
Gold was super-cheap when I was a kid. If only I'd known, I wouldn't have to bother with this 'work' business!
Ahh @Mr.Grieves if only you were of the female persuasion and Muslim you would expect gold even if it is a little!Buy gold, dude...
I often have this thought.if only you were of the female persuasion and Muslim
Blessed is blessedI often have this thought.

When your best friend at Primary school is drinking at a drinks fountain, DO NOT slap him playfully an the back of his head or he may lose his front tooth, move schools and never see you again..."When you see that large coconut on the road, do NOT try and ride over it like a speed bump".
Did I actually do that stupid thing?
Yes I did. I fell off my bike (obviously) and fell onto the road into a pile of bitumen gravel. There went my scar-free knee for good....
"That guy with the under-bite is as ugly inside as he is out."Okay..
1. That "Lawyer" is actually a conman trying to take everything you have. BREAK OFF ALL CONTACT"
2. Stay away from all men except for the one you met down town.

I used to tell my mum I was glad I didn't have a sister back in the day 'cause I did not have to share her gold with anyone......always cheeky and loved eliciting laughs from the parents.
My piece of advice is for people not to stereotype entire groups of people based on their personal experiences..
