In the darkest of nights

or in the lightest of day

something will happen in a split second

and in that split second anything and everything could happen

29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaYL6eVrEC

Because somewhere across the world

or even just miles away

someone is dying

someone is crying

someone is wishing

someone is yelling

someone is eating

29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6OENW9K0W

These are the thoughts that flood my mind in that split second

and in that same second, I realize that the sentence our parents would always tell us;

"To live life to the fullest" is true

because while you may be doom scrolling, or staring off into space

you could be doing something else more memorable

like looking out at nature, taking a walk, spending quality time with friends, family or even yourself

29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6y0NVq0lJ

And I know some people will shrug this off, knowing I would myself

thinking it doesn't matter and proceeding to absorb my attention into an electronic 24/7

29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8L3to3qD6t

But as I near the age of 13

nearly becoming a teen

I realize I wish I could go back to the days when I was still a little kid

and act like a true child29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz4V3NYz8a

29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGvA2FR4Ql

I look back at how I acted

and I wished I didn't force myself to be mature just to get friends

or seem cool in front of my 'friends'

I wish my childhood wasn't drained from its brightness

I wish I had enjoyed myself

and put myself out there

29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFC8etQ2G5Q
And now I wish for my future 13 year old self to not hide

to fail forward29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmStAfmCLMb

to live life to its fullest

29Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8lho9T7uX

That's my wish
