Dear Ashley
The little things in life can be sweet, they can be beautiful. But they can also be terrifying and eat away at you for years after they occur. You start middle school tomorrow and those little things that happen are going to ruin the next three years of your life. You have friendships explode in your face. You won’t understand why but it is going to drive you insane. So much that you give yourself this awful stomach ache everyday just from worrying that you are going to mess up again.
Why am I telling you this the day before you go into middle school? Because this starts on day one. You aren’t going to know how to solve the problem. This isn’t your problem even though it feels like it is. You don’t need to be in the middle of it. Stay true to yourself.
Middle school is going to show you so much about yourself. You will find out who you can and cannot trust. I think you will always struggle with trusting people in your life. I know you are going to think you are so cool in the beginning. But the people that make you feel that way are soon going to make you miserable. If you do anything just be careful about who you tell all your secrets to. Middle school isn’t all that bad it just isn't what you always thought it would be.
Love,
Ashley
