Time Travelled — about 6 years

Peaceful right?

Dear Future Me, I hope you're doing well. Things have been though with me lately. Remember that breakdown you got when you were still working in that hotel job of yours and in were College at the same time? That was a tough one. It took guts for you to get over that. I just want you to know that I am very proud of you nonetheless. Life is difficult, especially when you've to face it all on your own. But hey, you did it! WE DID IT. There's nothing that brings me greater joy than to know that you are okay. I sometimes had my doubts but I know you and I know that we are strong enough to handle what we've started. We proved all the naysayers wrong, and all the people that secretly wanted our failure. But look at where you are now and where they are. You know you have always been the person I've admired the most. The amount of heavy things that were thrown at you but you were there for yourself to catch them. You are your own saviour and you are enough. I wonder how IT went for you. I'm sure you did great and got your dream job. Say hello to Bobby for me, if that is still the name you chose for our future dog. Please name our daughter Melody Amelia, I know you've always wanted that name and our son Nicholai Damon (maybe change Damon while you're at it). Don't forget to love your best friends and their children just like they are your very own family. Sometimes flesh and blood can be decieving, no matter how painful it is. Call mum and dad for me and tell them that you love them so much, if you haven't already done so enough. I know you and mum haven't been the best of friends growing up but she's your mum and she should be your only real best friend because all she's ever done is love you like noone else in this world. I know you and dad are okay, you always have been but scratch his back for him. We both know how much he loves that. How's Ricsi? He's your only brother and sibling. I hope you guys have managed to get close. He's the only one who knows what a nutcase our family is like. For some reason I feel that you have experienced some kind of loss. But it's okay. The pain starts to be painful a little less every day. And if you feel guilty don't. There's nothing you could've done and I'm sure you've tried your best so on that note promise me that you will seperate from a person in anger and you make sure that they know they're loved. Okay? No matter how tough life gets, you can never give up. I hope you're 25 when you get this so HAPPY 25th BIRTHDAY. Go out and do something very special. Perhaps do it with your boyfriend or husband I hope. 25 is big number so make it special. I know that you've always wanted a family of your own to make up for the one you've been given as a child but remember it's okay if things aren't going your way and they seem to be out of control. Don't forget to visit, FRANCE, GREECE AND ITALY. and of course, the rest of the world. If you fall, dust off the dirt and get ready to climb again.
