NOTE TO YOUNGER HENRIETTA
Hello younger self, i am proud of how you have lived your life despite the pressure placed by peers to dissociate you from the discipline and genuine love and care your parents has been stood on you.
You deserve a big warm hug because i appreciate that you were not a victim of a society that is rottened where people can be influenced by different circumstances like social media.
My younger self, i want to remind you that whatever you did in the past whether good or bad is one that I appreciate because it has brought me to become the woman I am in our contemporary world. The tears, the mistakes, the night I stayed up worrying, the pains, discipline and harsh corrections, has shaped me to be the woman we hoped to become.
You are growing really well, you have been strong enough for someone your age who is pressured by the society and her environment to be perfect. I would tell her not to rush life but take it one step at a time so that the body would not be too much to bear.
Also, i would love to advise you that in this life it is okay to not please certain people as it is Okay to say No and to dismiss people in your life who takes you for granted and do not value you. Rather, have friends or roll with people who adds value to your life and you to theirs.
No doubt, you are leaving a great decent and humble life one that is the envy of most people, in the future you would look back and realize that the things you thought would break and destroy you will make you would have made you stronger and wiser. My younger self, do not dwell on the disappointments of life as they are the part way to protect your dignity to the direct you in the right path.
In essence, I appreciate my younger self for not given up when the harsh realities of life are here but that she fought against trial and tribulations that tried to finish her strength. Here I am, growing and basking in health and staying strong still for the future.

Thank God you stood firm in the midst of peer pressure.
Many people today live with regrets because they allowed themselves to be influenced by peers living fake lives.
What some people see as wickedness which is actually discipline is often what helps to shape our lives and guide us in the right direction.
A well disciplined person lives a consistent and diligent life, and success is never far from such a person.
Thank you for sharing this. 🙏
Thank you for your kind words
You are welcome
Your younger self will be very proud of who you have become and am sure that she will be willing to listen and take corrections from the advice and encouragement you just have her.
