1. Even if you have no idea who you are and why you are here, in 10 years time you will know who you are and you will have the wisdom to accept you'll never have a certain answer to "why you are here". Some questions will always remain unanswered and that's the beauty of it. This way you'll get to have pleasant philosophical talks with your friends.
2. It's normal to want to experiment a lot. Exploring helps you grow. Spiritually. And if your parents don't allow you to explore make a wishlist and make it come true when you will start working.
3. Don't be afraid to start working now. Small jobs pay as well. This way you don't have to depend on your parents for everything you want to buy.
4. Live in the moment without making too many plans about the future. Let the future surprise you, it surely will! Do whatever makes you happy. That should be your goal.
5. Most friends will come and go. As much as you love your closest friends now, in some years they might not be your friends anymore. And that's ok. Real friends never go away even if you don't keep in touch very often.
6. Life shouldn't be made of just school and homework. Volunteer, take care of your hobbies, make new friends!
7. You don't have to be perfect and have perfect grades. You should try your best but not be harsh on yourself if things don't go your way.
8. Life is not always fair. Accept it. You can't control everything.
9. You are way stronger than you think! You can do it! Exams, difficult projects, anything. Others did it so you can do it too no matter how difficult it might seem.
10. Getting sick now and then is normal but it's all temporary. Stop being afraid of terminal diseases. Stop being afraid of being sick.
11. Everything happens for a purpose.
12. Always listen to your heart. Even if it will give you headaches sometimes. Do what it says. If you follow your brain too much you will never be happy or at peace.
13. It's better to regret something you have done than to regret something you haven't done. We're not talking about drugs, alcohol, getting arrested or having an unwanted pregnancy.
14. Don't let the others (including the media) dictate how you should look like and how you should live your life.
15. You won't always be happy but if there are small things that make you happy then you should hold on to those.
16. The internet is important because it allows you to find information and keep in touch with your friends but go out with your friends as well. Face to face connections are stronger.
17. Follow your passions even if people don't believe in you. Prove them wrong by achieving all your goals.
18. Your parents might seem like your enemies right now but try to understand where they are coming from and compromise.
