I love the message – it’s like the Alchemist! At one point we all knew what we wanted to do but then we stopped listening to ourselves as we got older. Thanks for sharing – cool video!
If only we could talk our younger selves…
We could end the saying “if I only knew then what I know now”;
We could teach ourselves lessons of life to avoid the hurts that await us in future years;
We could reawaken memories that we have lost long ago;
We might guide ourselves onto a different path then the one we had chosen;
and lastly, We could calm the current hurt of our 12 year old selves, explaining that things really do get better for us.
Amen to that last part sweetheart..so much hurt that we could assuage..I’m not sure we would listen to our words of warning, most of us still would need to charge head-first into life, but maybe we would remember it when we really wanted to do something stupid…
