Talk things out. Don't keep them inside. Don't underestimate yourself or others. Don't fake a laugh. Tell them what you feel, so that there are no regrets later on. Small little things that you feel don't matter, they won't matter now. But they will later. So, talk things out!
Fight with a friend, didn't like what your boyfriend said the other day, don't like the habits of your siblings, didn't like your subject, like a girl but too afraid to tell. Just talk. Tell them. Let people know how you feel so that they could tell you how they feel about the same thing. They might change your view about something or you might change theirs. Talk! So that you don't have to wonder later on what all you could have said. "5 years back you did that", why didn't you tell it 5 years ago then? What were you waiting for? Children?
Two days before or twenty years, never ever keep anything in your heart. Talk. Speak up and you will see how light you feel. Speak, don't fight. Argue, don't fight.
Tell your parents you want to be a singer or a model or a photographer. They won't be going to your office and sitting in front of the laptops wondering what your life would be if you would have been what you wanted. Tell them that's what you want to do. Tell them whom you want to marry. They might understand why you want to take such a big step. Tell them you had a fight with your best friend. They'll cheer you up in such a way you can't imagine. Sit with your family after dinner and talk to them. Know the gossips going on in the family. Ask mom who's getting married or who is having babies. Ask dad how business is going and what are his plans for their wedding anniversary. Ask your brother about his girlfriend. Ask your sister what clothes she likes to wear.
Call a friend with whom you haven't spoken from, like, 2010. And know the joy of doing so.
Life isn't just about smart phones and school books.
It is so much more than that. It is exploring. Knowing about everything and everyone.
So go. Talk. Talk it out.
