Hi little nemia ❤️. Enjoy being a kid because life will never be the same anymore when you grow up. Always look at the bright side of the situation even if it is odd. Loving yourself and family will be much more important rather than what others think and say about you.

Heya, little Khien! You were about to face one of the most difficult problems of your life. I just wanted to tell you to keep fighting because I know you can do it. I am so proud of you because you are still young and reckless, but you never lose your smile and face many challenges bravely. You are precious, just keep your head up.

# data[].attributes.body
Sup buddy!!! I know it's hard to deal with challenging circumstances that you don't have any idea of. I know it's not easy to get eaten with anxiety every time you are around with a lot of people you're not comfortable with. I know the fear you encounter every time  you set yourself too high and got the opposite instead. I know. But don't worry, all of those are experiences that will help you to outgrow yourself and aid you in going outside of your comfort zone. It may be difficult at first, but rest assured that those will make you a better person. I just hope that you will not waste all of the opportunities that will come to you. Istg I regret not claiming all of it, that is why I advice you to grab every open door and take a step forward. Don't worry about your social anxiety or the fear of not attaining the expectations of others, just be your truest self. Embrace every flaw, and you will not be scared of what other people might think of you.

You will get there, in God's will.

xoxo, 18 years old you♡

My advice to my 10-year old self.
Hello self, I hope you enjoyed your childhood moment. I know you did have a tough time as a kid facing those problems that you are not supposed to care and still you did your best to give it a solution on your own and you did help your own parents. I know that growing up you just keep your problems on your own and don’t even share to your parents to seek some help. I am proud of you for being independent at a young age. Remember that you are strong and kind, you can survive when being left alone at the house on your own because you can cook your own food and do all the house choirs. Keep it up om the things that your doing because sooner or later you will face the world on your own at a different place. Remember to love yourself and to love those who are important to you.

To my 10 year old self, I miss you! I miss you so much.

I miss waking up in the morning without worrying what is waiting for me that day.  I miss playing with my friends during noon time up to sun down. I miss going to school with a lots of "baon" and share it with my classmates. I miss the days when mom used to leave me at my neighbors house because she needs to go the hospital. I miss the story telling at night when our place experience brownouts. I miss my innocents, I miss how lively I was when I was a kid. I miss everything.

As a grew up, I really thank my younger self for enjoying her childhood days. My childhood memories are priceless and if given a chance to go back, I would be happy to experience it again .  I did not expect that adulthood can be this hard and confusing.  But as the time goes by, I learned a lot during the process and I could say that I handle my old self really well despite of the things that bothers me.

"the first step at being GREAT is to be GRATEFUL". And to my 10 year old cute self(haha). Never forget who you are, the experiences, memories, pains, happiness, the wounds, every little thing about you because that honed you to be the woman you are today. Do not be afraid to take risk and continue to learn, respect and to love people around you because you are a symbol of LIGHT AND JOY of your family. Do not be afraid about the future because I know that you will handle it well.

# data[].attributes.body
To my 10 year old self, learn to love and respect yourself. Do not depend on others for your happiness and be careful in choosing friends, there are many traitors and people who are not true. Just focus on your dream and do the things you want and love. Don't give in to the challenges and problems that will come. Enjoy your life, the things you have and who you are. The world will accept you, for what you are. Never doubt yourself. And please take care.

You may face challenges but always know that they taught us several lessons. Don't lose hope and be confident. You may not be as pretty as them, but you are pretty being you. Enjoy your childhood because growing up makes you sad and anxious. Be safe always! - Pritz Aashie A. Acaso

Have confidence in yourself. Don't seek validation from others for your own happiness or success. Learn to love yourself without worrying about whether or not you're good enough.

To my 10 year old self,

Hey, I know it's hard to live a life being the eldest. I hope you enjoyed the moments you had during that year. I still have that innocence and cutie face that you used to have lol. I just want you to know that the experiences you had during that year made me strong and empowered. Despite of the bad things you had experienced like bullying, it didn't stop you to keep on moving and continue life. Thank you for loving yourself and other people. Thank you for teaching me how to dream big at the same time enjoy life and do what you want to do. I will promise that I will continue to strive hard for greatness and I won't waste all the things you've done. I'm so proud of you and I'm grateful that I was once a 10 year old kid.

Love,
Your 19 year old self.

Hi my 10 years old self, How are you?
Please don't consider or tolerate people doing bad on to you, you are too kind to consider all of that. It is very much okay to not to be okay you know, you are a brave girl so don't you worry. I know you have to mature at such a young age but believe, it has a lot of benefits. Continue to be kind but let yourself correct people, let them know what is wrong and what is right. Be yourself because that is the only gift you could ever enjoy when growing up. Always love yourself. <3

# data[].attributes.body
To my 10 year old self, be confident in yourself. Don't seek someone else's approval of your own happiness or success. Learn to love and respect yourself without worrying about whether you are "good enough" or "cool enough". Work hard, but take time to make friends and have fun.

# data[].attributes.body
Hi! how are you? it's been a long time since someone asked you that. Before anything else, I just want it to put ot there that you are great the way you are living that way. Today, after turning out to be 19 years of age, I can tell what it is like to be a grown up. I came to tell that, we have made this life for me. You're too young to stress things out, just live the life you are living. Don't worry about the rest. Just looking through the glass, I know that you're a bit shy, and that is okay, no need to feel sorry about it. In time you are about to grow just like any other flower that you adore. Be confident! I know even at that young age, we have been through a lot of unfortunate times, but that is going to make us strong. Just hold on, and remember that every lesson may be unpleasant and will get the best out of you but you have to remain strong and happy. Never, ever, be scared to say No. We have learned this the hard way, I don't want to allow your self to be used, and your heart abused. We are way better than that. Just dream big as to what  you are supposed to at that age. We'll eventually achieve the things we want in life. Always tell mama and daddy that you love them :)) I never got to say that quite often now, but please do so. I really don't want to say too much more, but just be prepared for we don't know what life will have to throw us. Chania, pray a lot and be happy, I don't want nothing more but that.

# data[].attributes.body
My advise to my 10 year old self, never compare yourself to others and know that all of us are at our own pace. It may seem like you are left behind but you are not, just continue what you're doing and eventually you will get in there. When an opportunity comes, be bold and fearless. Accept the opportunity and take it as a challenge in order to develop yourself and have some experience. Explore various activities like sports and don't let your fears overcome it. Give some time to focus on your self development for it is a vital process that will greatly impact how you handle your life. Also, I know you're shy but please try your best to be friendly and understanding of others because you might miss a wholesome friendship. At a young age, I also want you to have self-esteem and self-confidence. Start learning how to be responsible and learn to be independent. Please also know that you are a great person and that I am proud of you for always doing your best. Do not also forget to enjoy every moment. Take a lot of rest while you still have the time. Do what you enjoy and be happy. Don't worry much about the future because everything's gonna be alright.

# data[].attributes.body
The advice that I'll give to my 10-year-old self would probably be to never be scared to try new things and to care less about what might other people think or say about you. Simply enjoy your life to the fullest and do the things that makes you happy. You're worthy and deserved every happiness in life! ♡

# data[].attributes.body
My advice to my 10- year old self is never let the cruel world take away your kindness and stop doubting yourself, when you feel like you can do it and you want to do it, then take a risk and don't doubt that you can't do it. It maybe a common advice to everyone but I've seen you growing up carrying that self- doubt in you. So, please be brave enough to take away or stop that. There's a great happiness and success behind your fears and doubts, always remember that tam.

# data[].attributes.body
My advice to my 10-year-old self is that please do eat a lot, you kept on telling that you wanted to grow fast but you can't even stand eating otan . I hope that you wouldn't stop yourself in doing good things because I know that you really wanted to have a beautiful life in the future. You really want to support your family. Please be kind and don't let anyone stop you from being great. I hope that when bad things happened, please remember that there's God, just keep on praying and please join with Lola to pray the rosary everyday.

# data[].attributes.body
My advice to my 10 years old self is that be grateful to the things you have and still be thankful even if what you prayed for didn't came on what you expect. Never ever put grudges to your parents for they only want whats the best for us. Don't make giving up as your choice instead choose to strive hard. Never be afraid to fail as failure is the first key to success.

# data[].attributes.body
To my 10 year old self who’s really carefree and free-spirited, always be kind and considerate. The world may throw big and small problems at you, do not ever throw it back no matter what. Have the happiness in this world.

If I could give an advice to my 10-year-old self, I would tell her to enjoy her youth and appreciate life. When I was 10-years-old, I remember wanting to become an adult - to become older. I look up to those older than me thinking, "If only I was their age, then my life would be easier." Well, little did my young self know, adulthood is not that great. So because of this mindset, I never get to appreciate life - I never even showed appreciation to my friends at that time that to this day, I still reminisce and wonder, "What if I had really gave value to my friends that time, maybe we would have been friends until now." I had an adult mindset even when I was still young when I should have just acted my age and enjoy life because I will only become 10-years-old once. So, to my 10-year-old self, if you're reading this, just be yourself and enjoy what you have and who you are now. Don't worry, you'll be a great adult in the future.

Good Morning!

I just want to advice my 10 year old self that be yourself, have confidence and sort/try new things that makes me happy. Take time to grow and do the things that I won't regret for the past years. Fall in love with GOD and myself first, some called this a selfishness action but if you accept and love yourself I know it so much easier to love others with the right and full intensions of yours. Be happy even though it's hard and worship all your worries with GOD. I also know that you are proud of me for what I have right now.

An advice to my dear, precious younger self,

Being a lyrist must never be a hindrance to your studies, a lot of obstacles may come your way. There will be traumatic experience you'll experience but despite of that, "Life Must Goes On". Forgive but never forget. I wish you all the best, always be kind to yourself and to others too! Enjoy every moment, for this moments helps you/us to become the best version of ourselves. When you're thankful, and in doubt, pray. Keep the faith with the Lord. Stay pretty darlingg! <3

I wanted to assure her that she has always done well and that she should enjoy herself and her time on a daily basis. Always be appreciative and look for the beauty and goodness in everyone, not just yourself. Believe in yourself that if something is truly meant for you, it will come true one day. You may have difficulties, but remember that you are stronger than any obstacles you will face; do not let this discourage you; always keep your head up. Pray and believe!

# data[].attributes.body
Way back 9 years ago, I would advice my 10 year old self to be strong no matter what obstacles she might face in life, be true to yourself even some people brings you down, and always be God fearing as well, because he will guide you to the right path of your life.

Sincerely,
Your 19 year old self

To my 10 year-old self,

You will have a life-changing decision this year. Though, in a few years you will understand why God let you experience this thing. Remember, everything happens for a reason and always trust God's plan. Later on, you will thank Him greatly for it because in time you will become a person you would never expect to become because of the incident. Always pray and never forget many people loves you still, including your grandparents. Stay strong love and face it head-on with an accepting and lovable heart.

With love,
Your future self

If given a chance to have a little chat with my younger self, I'd told her to open up her eyes more. For her to be able to see a bit clearer about all the possibilities. When I was a teenager, I was in denial. I thought I wasn't hence that made me gave up a lot of opportunities that I regret right now.

Dear self, take good care of yourself. Remember that self-care is never "maarte" nor pathetic. Remember to always be cautious in what you do or say and to always prioritize your mental health over anything. Your feelings are valid, my dear. Shine♥️

I'm sure you're curious about the world and yourself. You will learn a lot as you mature, some of which will destroy your worldview and others which will extend it. It's critical to hear opinions that are different from your own and to assimilate that information so that you can do more good in the world and be the greatest, most compassionate person you can be. Recognize that you are not alone through difficult times. It is not a sign of weakness or a poor reflection of your ability to seek help. You'll have a large and diverse support system who will be there for you during the high points and, more importantly, during the low points, reminding you that you're strong, smart, and adept, and that you're in this position for a reason. Continue to study and improve yourself while remembering to reach out to others and help them grow.  Right now, you’re a kid, so don’t worry too much; lean into your joy and keep learning. Every state we’re in is temporary. Remembering that will get you through hard times. Accept your vulnerability in order to live boldly and resiliently. While others may question your efforts or talents, you were born to be where you are; do not be afraid to push yourself beyond your comfort zone and seek to continue the route that those brave explorers and disruptors who came before you blazed. You are worthy of what you desire. Enjoy the things and experiences you have now, because you may not gonna experience it once you grow older. I love you and keep fighting!!!

My advice to my 10 year old self would be nothing or stay the way you are at best. I don't have any particular advice for my 10 year old self as I believe that I was doing whatever a 10 year old should be doing. Living life without a care in the world and just being a kid. I do have a message for her though. To my 10 year old self, I love you. Continue on doing what you love, even if people tell you otherwise. You are amazing and you are loved, leave your mark everywhere you go, you are extraordinary.

# data[].attributes.body
My advice to my 10-year old self would be, "Enjoy living your life, take things slowly". It is okay to just slow down, just enjoy what you are doing. Know what are your likes and be passionate in what you do. Appreciate everything that surrounds you and be grateful with what you have, you'll do great!

# data[].attributes.body
Good Morning everyone!

My advice that I would give to my 10-year old self is that she should grab every opportunity that she gets and not to be afraid when it comes to failures. I realized that I have missed a lot of opportunities back then because I was too shy and awkward and was really afraid to  participate even in class because I was afraid they'd laugh at me. Also please I hope you realize sooner that you aren't male. Enjoy your childhood!

# data[].attributes.body
Don't be afraid. You will overcome.
Continue to live happily because life is uncertain. Enjoy being a kid because life will get real soon and you’ll face a lot of giants in this world. And lastly, keep your faith, you are doing the right thing.

# data[].attributes.body
"Don't be shy," is the advise I would give to my 10-year-old self.
Fel, I understand how scary it is because all of your classmates may be mean and bully you, but trust me when I say they're only immature kids. Children are intended to be foolish. They're going to cringe as well as they grow up.
Also, be confident. People who are watching you are not thinking about you or what you are doing. They're not thinking of how weird you are because you act like a "boy".
All I'm suggesting is that you should take it easy. Don't put too much pressure on yourself to fit in and please others. You're too young to be stressed in life. Have fun, be young.

# data[].attributes.body
To my younger self, please know that what decision you made is you did it with the feelings and limited experience you had at the time. You did the best with what you knew. It's okay.

# data[].attributes.body
My advice to my 10 year old self is that "be kinder to yourself" and "always know your worth". Don't mind what other people says about you, just continue to be the light for others. You don't need to please everyone. You are talented and intelligent in unique ways. You don't need to compare yourself to other people, you shine in you own little way. Lastly, be the best version of yourself.

# data[].attributes.body
The advice that would give to my 10-year old self is to remind him that every dream is possible and valid. To achieve those dreams, you have to be responsible and persistent. Just enjoy the journey and everything will fall into place. :> Laban!

Morales, Rochelle R.                      My advice to my 10 year-old self is that I just want you to live your life to the fullest and offer everything to God. As what others say, "Life is so short, so you should live up to it." I want you to be strong, fierce and bold no matter what the future may hold. Don't rush things and always remember that failures are steps to success. Be unique and embrace what you have cutie patotie!

My advice to my 10 year old self: I want her to enjoy life, find your purpose and passion. She should learn how to enjoy the journey. I want her to not let perfectionism stand in the way of honing skills for her interests, she should be able to love herself and be herself always.

# data[].attributes.body
The advice I would give to my 10 year-old self is to seize the day and to utilize what is available. I rarely had friends before. As what they say, "minsan lang tayo bata," so, to be able to enjoy childhood with your cherished family, selected friends, and loved ones are always precious.

# data[].attributes.body
My advice to my 10 years old self that it is okay to make mistakes. That it is okay to make mistakes as long as you will not do it fhe second time around. Lastly, do not take these mistakes negatively instead use it as a lesson to grow or develop and become a better person.

# data[].attributes.body
To my 10 year old self:

You should start eating veggies and healthy foods so that your future self won't deal with sickness and hospitalizations anymore. Start saving money given by your ninangs/ninongs and relatives because bts, txt, and enhy merch are expensiveee! And it is okay if you don't have a plan on what you want to be in the future, your parents will guide you for that. Enjoy your childhood, have fun, sleep a lot and live your life as if it is your lasttt. :))

# data[].attributes.body
My advice to my 10-year old self would be, "Don't be in a rush to grow up quickly". Enjoy living your youth for as long as you can because once you grow up life will be completely different. You'll wake up one day and discover it's no longer a game and you'll have to face life's realities and difficulties.

# data[].attributes.body
My Advice to my 10 year old self is to not be afraid. In my childhood, I had this fear - this fear of abandonment - that haunted me. If given the chance, I would tell my younger self that people come and go in your life, the best ones stay in your life so don't be afraid.

# data[].attributes.body
To you, my 10- year- old self, be confident in yourself. During this time, we faced many hardships in life and we tend to hide ourselves away from opportunities. Do not be afraid to come out of your shell and reach for things you want to achieve. Somehow, we realized too late that we missed too much chances. Learn to love yourself and accept things when they don't go your way.

# data[].attributes.body
My advice to my 10 year old self is for her to start becoming responsible. There will be many challenges that she will face in the future but if you become responsible and dependent then she will learn how to overcome it on her own. Make her experiences a lesson in life and learn from it.
