In terms of days and moments lived, you'll never again be as young as you are right now, so spend this day, the youth of your future, in a way that deflects regret. Invest in yourself. Have some fun.

You give up on what you need to be doing because you forget that you're worth it.

When you don't believe in yourself this much, pretend.
