Have you ever had a conversation with your younger or older self? What would you say to yourself if you could go back in time? What would that person think of who you became?
The fifteen-year-old I used to be is a close friend to me, at least in my mind. I talk about the world and my life to him, and he reminds me of all the passion, dreams, and ideals I had and still try to have.
Mostly, like this song does, I urge him not be in such a hurry. Few of us realize how time accelerates until we get into our late thirties and can really see each year passing faster than the last. That's when you appreciate what you really had when you were fifteen: time.
