If I were to tell you that everything would be okay, you would call me a dead dog liar.<\/p>\n
If I were to explain to you that you would be married before you were 35 and cooking at a hotel for people large and small, you’d most likely say I was telling stories.<\/p>\n
But hear us out, believe us when we say it won’t rain forever.<\/p>\n
And believe me, being a chef in the kitchen during summertime, you’ll wish for rain.<\/p>\n
Believe us when we say, you’ll kiss a girl and she’ll actually want to kiss you again.<\/p>\n
You won’t have children, but you will realize, offspring don’t \u00a0necessarily make a family.<\/p>\n
You will learn the hard way, that the world owes you nothing.<\/p>\n
If you want something, you can’t pussyfoot around and expect it to fall in your lap.<\/p>\n
You have to take it, but without being a bully.<\/p>\n
But not to worry.<\/p>\n
Don’t overthink it.<\/p>\n
You will be just fine.<\/p>\n
We promise.<\/p>\n
Love,<\/p>\n
Us<\/p>\n
