Memories
By: Sophia

Why does every memory we have, have to be good?
No one likes having a bad memory of something bad that has happened in the past. Everyone wants their lives to be perfect but the reality is that it isn’t and we need to learn from our mistakes and face them instead of trying to hide away those scary or bad memories. Reminisce in those memoriess as much as the good ones.
As a teenager, I have made mistakes, in fact I have made more than a few. I don’t like remembering them and the things I did wrong. But if I didn’t make those mistakes I wouldn’t be the person I am now.
I wouldn’t know that it was a mistake until I made it.
I think that’s part of living. I think it makes you more of a real person.
No ones perfect and if you admit to your mistakes and learn from them you will be a better and stronger person. This year has been a big learning experience for me and it hasn’t been all great memories, but I’m happy that I have made mistakes because it makes my life a little more interesting.
If my life was a book, you wouldn’t be able to set it down!
