If there's a manual in life for puberty, would you have read it?

I'm considering actually writing a book about life struggles and lessons I got growing up, especially the part in highschool.

It felt awkward at the time, like I was trying to find a place for myself, be part of a circle that I didn't even know if I wanted for the rest of my life.

Life and time bring perspective. Still, if someone were to tell the younger version of me some things, I wonder... I wonder.

Nearly every person going through puberty is convinced it's a new thing, happening just to them.

The only time the book would be understood would be later, unfortunately.

@Mamapolo2016 It makes sense, but I wouldn't say for all. I was already in college when I realized there is such a thing as a cell leader who could mentor you. They taught me stuff, helped improved my self image. It's different when there's someone guiding you.

@Casheyane Yes - especially close to your own age.
