Ask an Elder for Advice

I sent a message to a wisdom giver! My message was... "Hello there Wisdom Giver!
I'm Jess, I'm 17 and looking for some wisdom!
I want to make sure I spend my youth wisely, taking advantage of the time I have, so my one question to you would be, looking back on your youth now, what would you encourage young people to do more, while they're still young?
Hope to here from you soon!"
And this was the lovely reply I received!
