Overthinking
Do you me like me? Yes or no
I don’t know. I don’t know myself yet. Plus I’m under a lot of stress at home so I can’t tell.
P.S. You don’t know yourself until you’re 18.
When I first saw the news story about the note (see photo) passed between the 10 year olds I thought, “Oh my goodness. I almost had a relationship with an older version of that guy about 25 years ago!” A simple yes or no question leads to angst and self-doubt. I’m pledging to stop wasting energy worrying about situations that will probably be fine. How about you?
yes. it's my real name. 
I think the best thing I’ve learned in life is to not worry about things I can’t control. I’m not always successful at doing this but I’m better about it then when I was younger. Maybe it is the wisdom of age but mostly I think as I grow older I have just a little less energy every year. Worrying about things I can’t control is wasted energy that I don’t have the luxury of ‘spending’ anymore, so I try move on and enjoy what I can control.
