What a dumb kid I was

#life

what a dumb kid I was.

I was scrolling through «Избранное» today. The first message was sent in 2022. That’s when I got my first phone.

Every message made me realize how dumb and naive I was. There are links to dozens of trading videos that I watched, unaware that it was all a scam. My reflections (if you can even call them reflections lol) were shallower than a canal next to my home (it doesn’t even have water).

The unfortunate part is that I dismissed even the possibility that my thoughts and ideas might be shallow or outright wrong. What a dumb kid I was.

That was me a few years ago, not who I am now. My current self must be smart, right? I don’t really know.

But what I do know is that in a few years, I’ll probably look back and say, “what a dumb kid I was.”
