Was talking to my younger cousin today after the second blizzard of the century hit us this month.

 

"You gonna go out and play in the snow with your friends?"

 

"Ew, no one is gonna do that. That's so cringe"

 

I paused and wanted so badly to find the words to explain to her you can't let how other people's perceptions prevent you from having fun. That you can only be young and carefree once.

 

Stop worrying about making mistakes, they happen and build you up to who you will be. No one has ever gotten through life without making them.

 

I don't know if this will make sense to anyone. Just rambling really.
