Sometimes, the most painful lessons in our lives can be the simple mistakes we encounter each and every day.

Being a teenager can be hard but I frankly believe it is one of the important stages in life. Not only am I changing on the outside, but I’m also changing on the inside as well. I meet new people, I take the good and leave the bad; I meet other people, I take the bad and leave the good. At this point, it’s just how life is. After developing many friendships, the realization hits: you realize that nobody can be trusted, not your best friend, not your classmate, or even your sister. Therefore I learnt the hard way that writing your thoughts and feelings down is a better way of relaxing than trusting someone will ever be.
