I would tell the child version of me,
"The only thing you need to know is being human can never be explained.
But, You will notice that majority of life is misery, agony, sorrow, hate, disappointment, chaos, and anger. At every pit and fall of this roller coaster you will wish to get off more then the last one. You will cry more heavily then you have ever know. Your pain will surpass what you ever imagined pain could feel like. And your heart will break too many times for you to measure. You will be beaten down and degraded to the point were life seem's like eternal misery.
But, I can promise you this. The once in a life time moments at the top of the roller coaster were you feel weightless, free, whole, happy, excited, and love. Just the memories of those parts will keep you going through to the next climax of this roller coaster. When you hit another downhill. Think back on them, they will rejuvenate all those hibernating emotions and all it takes is a second of love and peace too help the ride seem less frightening.
And don't use the moments were you are climbing back up the hill to think about the bad times. For if you do this, the up hill relief will become a uphill battle...
And I know you don't believe in God, I know you can give me 1,000 reasons why you think he doesn't exist. But trust me. I am you... And I am telling myself that God does exist. Hold onto his word for his word are the straps that will keep you from hitting the ground. No matter how scary this ride becomes remember you are safe. For when you are on God's side he will make sure you make it home. You might not feel happy and joyful the whole time. But waiting for you is your true home. You will look back at this ride just as you look back at every roller coaster ride you have been on. With happiness and joy. You will wonder why you were ever scared.
But what do I know... I am still just a child too...
So don't take my word as gospel take it as a guide and above all...
Live Life"
