A letter from May 16, 2023

Dear FutureMe, you have been through a lot and I hope you are doing well.This year has been emotions and school work piling up on you, and still you never once put yourself first.An important goal for the future and towards doing well is to make sure you are mentally in check.Even though school is not your ideal place to be, stepping out of comfort zones and doing things we typically do not want to do are just part of life and another thing we need in our lives to get to where we want to be.Overall, I am pretty proud of you for keeping your grades pretty steady throughout each semester because that can be hard to do especially when finding balance is not always ideal in situations.You have done a lot this year, so I hope you are proud of yourself because you have not given yourself enough credits for trying and you beat yourself up constantly if you aren't at your best because you want a successful future, but just like mom told you... Focus,breathe don't let your nerves get to you and your memory will naturally flow because when you get anxious and tense up you become forgetful, and I think throughout the school year you definitely focused on that sentence and it helped you make it through a lot even when it was hard and for that I will always be grateful for encouragement.What I expect from you in the future is to breathe, don't be so hard on yourself just let things happen naturally. Good things come to those who speak good things out into existence, because through your positive words, you radiate positive energy and you draw in success. I hope you take these words to heart and really use them not just in school,but as a full on life lesson.
