Hi, this is @mermaidvampire the judge of the contest, I just wanna say wow, this just got me in deep thoughts and a lot of trying to recall my 16 year old self. I think we should do this every now and then, like assess how far we've come and try to think of what message you can tell your old self. Hmmm... I think this would help with parenting. Thanks for joining @rutheh, these are golden words of wisdom right here. Keep Steeming! I'll see you around.
Hey @mermaidvampire, thanks, I'm glad you liked it!
You're definitely right, writing this was pretty therapeutic. I think we miss how far we grow on a yearly and even monthly basis, and looking back every once in a while puts any struggles we're currently going through in perspective. Don't have any kids yet, but I can see what you mean about an exercise like this being useful with them;)
