<h1> Dear <footer><font color="#FF1493"><S>Redacted</S></font>, Why the self sabotage? </h1>


<p>You cannot get ahead while dwelling in the past or by living in the same conditions that you always have. Caught up in who you've been or how you've been perceived, tell yourself you are worthy of the life you wish to lead.<p/>

<P>If you're going nowhere quickly, with no directory.. Act fast; keep moving swiftly and adjust trajectory. Enjoy the ride as much as you can, because once you arrive you'll be looking on back.</P>

<p>It wont all be peaches & cream, but you'll find your silver linings in the story in between. The pain of the worst may linger, but the best of it saccharine. Don’t sweat the small stuff and don’t give up everything you need. <p/>

<p>You are in control of your vessel. You always had the fight in you but you'll lose if its yourself that you wrestle. Better yourself as much as you can, learn about the things you don't understand. </p>

<p>It’s not about preparing for the end of your life, its finding ways to live today with contentment prioritized. Gaze into your personal abyss, say something cheeky and blow it a kiss. <p/>

<p>Take a deep breath and you'll float before you sink. The abyss can't pull you in its depth if you don't teeter on its brink. </p>

<p>Your mind is a powerful tool, attune your thoughts, now, navigate. 
Not all roads lead to Rome, and I’ve heard that It "wasn't built in a day", but "Build it and they shall come" is more than just hearsay. <p/>

<p>Its what you make of it, what you take from it, and patching it back up every time it breaks. What are you waiting for? Its never too late. </p>

<p>Take your two shaking hands and manipulate your fate.<p/>

<p>You don't have to head the words of others, but consider the voice from which they were uttered. Stand by me, hold my hand, uplift each other.. Just don't lean to hard upon your friends and your lovers. </p>

<p> Pull yourself out of the gutter. <p/>

<p>Sometimes your reflection is the only person you need to ask for life Advice.</p>
