Do not fret,

you will grow.

Don’t worry,

you will see changes,

in you and others.

Take your time,

you don’t get ‘today’ again;

there is no rush.

No rush to grow or change,

no rush for decisions to be made.

Things happen when they will,

and you will cope.

Cast those fears aside.

Let experience come to you.

Say yes – a lot; but not always.

Release your dreams

and chase them.

Do not be apprehensive

for you are capable.

Laugh a lot –

love even more.

I look forward to meeting

the man you will become.
