I strive to remind myself not to overthink, not to create unnecessary worries, and not to fret over things that haven't happened. During adolescence, it is natural to feel a sense of anxiety, occasionally feeling pessimistic, lost, or bewildered. Yet, I realize that one looks most beautiful when smiling. Therefore, learning to remain optimistic is an essential lesson of youth. We possess endless opportunities to create, to invent, and to change. With so many chances, failure is inevitable, but one must never retreat. Only by moving forward can we appear truly strong, even if we have to crawl. You can never know how much pain and scarring lies behind a strong person. Freedom and happiness are the most authentic treasures, deserving of being cherished. Along with them, there is love and joy. Lenin once said: "To forget is to betray." You must give your future self the best possible answer.
