A letter from Nov 07, 2025

Dear FutureMe,happy birthday! Today is my 20th birthday (11/07/25). It feels surreal that I have reached this age, hahaha. Twenty years of being alive here is not that easy, huh? These past few months, I've been trying my best to become better, but at some points, I know I have lost some part of me/us. It's hard to cope in college-in life rather. Life can be really bitter and sweet sometimes, but I'm surviving-that's what's important, right? A lot can change in a year. I hope in the coming years of our lives, life will be gentle to us. I hope we achieve the dreams, peace, and happiness we are craving, blez. Life will challenge us, but I know we can do this because we have to. We did not come this far just to give up in the process. It's okay to feel tired, burned out, drained, lost-what else? Hahaha. If we feel and eventually face these emotions, feel free to rest, blez. Just don't give up. If the hurt comes, so will the happiness. You know, I read this in milk and honey: a journey of the most bitter moments in life and finds sweetness in them because there is sweetness everywhere. So, onto our bright future, Blez! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
