A letter to a little nerd

My dear little nerd, 

read carefully. It's a piece of cake for you, you have been doing this since you were...

three: No hardship lasts forever. Something good will happen eventually. It's a pity to miss it, because of your emotional shutdown.

Work hard and enjoy it. And since every job has difficulties, keep close to you the people who understand the difficulties of your own job. They're valuable.

Don't be jealous of anyone. Even if some people seem to live a fairy-tale life, you are not in their house or head to know what they may be hiding.

Whatever is detrimental to your well-being, get rid of it, otherwise, it spreads and takes up more and more space in your day.

And last but not least, don't play gooseberry. There's always something better to do. Are you laughing, you little punk? Are you laughing?






This story participated in a Greek Literature Contest. The theme was "Letter to my younger self". I used Google Translate and DeepL (free version) to optimize the translation in English, and still feel that there is room for further improvement.

The photos were taken on 28.10.2019 in a place that my younger self had visited several times. The chapel of Saint George is located near Kalochori. It was an old monastery built in 15th-16th century. Initially, the church was underground, but after it was damaged, the residents restored it, turning it into an above-ground one.
