More From Eleanor Roosevelt

Crabbed age and youth cannot live together; youth is full of pleasure, age is full of care; youth like summer morn, age like winter weather; youth like summer brave, age like winter bare. youth is full sport, age's breath is short; youth is nimble, age is lame; youth is hot and bold, age is weak and cold; youth is wild, age is tame. age, i do abhor thee; youth, i do adore thee.

For a second we just stand there in silence. then, suddenly, alex is back, easy and smiling again. “i left a note for you one time. in the governor’s fist, you know?” i left a note for you one time. it’s impossible, too crazy to think about, and i hear myself repeating, “you left a note for me?” “i’m pretty sure it said something stupid. just hi, and a smiley face, and my name. but then you stopped coming.” he shrugs. “it’s probably still there. the note, i mean. probably just a bit of paper pulp by now.

When you have a good friend that really cares for you and tries to stick in there with you, you treat them like nothing. learn to be a good friend because one day you're gonna look up and say i lost a good friend. learn how to be respectful to your friends, don't just start arguments with them and don't tell them the reason, always remember your friends will be there quicker than your family. learn to remember you got great friends, don't forget that and they will always care for you no matter what. always remember to smile and look up at what you got in life.

It is a great thing to be at your age... you are at a very specific time of age ... an age where you can follow all your dreams. but also at an age when you can change-you can change your dreams, you can change paths. when you start something when you're young, you should not decide 'this is it, this is my way and i will go all the way.' you have the age where you can change. you get experience, and maybe dislike it and go another way. your age is still an age of exploration.

God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. each note is a need coming through one of us, a passion, a longing pain. remember the lips where the wind-breath originated, and let your note be clear. don't try to end it. be your note.

Be proud of your mistakes. well, proud may not be exactly the right word, but respect them, treasure them, be kind to them, learn from them. and, more than that, and more important than that, make them. make mistakes. make great mistakes, make wonderful mistakes, make glorious mistakes. better to make a hundred mistakes than to stare at a blank piece of paper too scared to do anything wrong.
