Your own advice is actually good for you

This letter is to myself, who cannot stop hating the person she simply is for another.
I am going to take my own advice.

Dear Lingy,
When Z said the most important thing two lovers must have is things in common, you never thought it'd be that important. It's okay. Because:
Nothing is more important than what inspires you the most in life, that propels you forward to creating more beautiful things for the world, and the music you love will always be a click away whenever you need it.
Fun is what you define it to be.
Your youth should be graced only with the highest of wisdoms, but sometimes the wisdom you need is not the wisdom of someone else's.
You know fully well that you are accountable to only yourself and your heart for the mistakes you commit and the decisions you make.
Not anyone else because we die alone and we stand at Heaven's gates waiting for judgement alone.
Forget the idealistic, romantic view of love, that someone could mean the whole world to you because you are the only one who holds your world together and should you fail, no one else can piece yourself back together but you.
Forgive yourself when you feel pathetic that your confidence has been stripped down because you are self-aware of how you make others feel and that you may try to please them instead.
Know that your self-awareness is a gift and it is given to you so that no one else may need to feel the same awful way you have felt.
It is called empathy.
If you protect, continue to protect.
And let go of your grudges, they will only hurt you.
Not dishonesty, not being judged, but only unforgiveness will hurt you.

With love
xx

Omg I just took my own advice.
This helps.
I'm a bit scared of getting a split personality though. *shivers*
