Hoo-boy. I feel I must mention that when I was 10, my mom went into the hospital with leukemia. As it turned out, the aggressive chemotherapy gave her 32 additional years. So, what would I tell my 10-year-old self?
- Things are going to be okay.
- Yes, helping out and trying to make everyone else feel happy and safe is good. Learn to take care of yourself, too.
- That one year you decide not to do any of your math homework? Don't do that.
- No, really. Things are going to be okay. There will be some really awful times, but it works out.

Don't let other people decide for you; you really do know what's best for you. Quit the stupid Church school after 8th grade, study on your own and get a GED. Go to university where you want to go, don't lose touch with your best friend, and yes, DO go on to grad school.
