Time Travelled — over 3 years

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, I hope you’re still alive. Breathing. Surviving. Today I’m writing you a letter because you deserve to know I care about you . I care about your happiness . Did you achieved what stressed you out so much years ago? I hope so. You’re a strong woman just like you’re mom. You’re careful like your dad. Don’t ever doubt your capacities. I just know that despite all the challenges you’ve been through, you always found a way to get back on your feet. I hope you are prioritizing your own happiness. You only have one life, do not live it for someone else. Do not say yes to that man if you don’t see him in your dreams. Love never been easy to you. I know. Believe in your choices . If you hesitate, take a step back, it’s okay. Don’t panick ; I’m right behind you. I represent your past, all your emotions. All the pain but also the strength you’ve carried during so many years. I’m asking you to please release it. Let all your fears behind. Change the book. Forgive. Keep walking , don’t run, don’t rush ; you’ll arrive at your destination. If you’re reading this, I’m proud of you. Remember that pandemic ? Yeah, well, congrats. You’ve made it. Got out of quarantine and started living. I hope you read this on the campus of a university. Do not give up, you can do it. I’m so curious about the path you chose. Psychology? Law? Sociology? Criminal justice? All of them? Whatever the program, you always had goals. You’re not the type of person satisfied with the minimum . You always wanted more and I’m hoping you’ll get what you’re looking for. Do you feel free in general? Have you forgive the members of your family? If not, it’s okay. You have your reasons. You’ve suffered enough. Hey! Just a quick tip . Keep putting money aside. Are you still thinking about building that home? Don’t worry princess. You’ll get there. Dreams do come true. I may not believe it right now but I know you do. Is he still the man you wanna marry? Are you still with him? You know who I’m talking about hahaha. Hey! Have you gained confidence? I’m worried about you. I hope you stopped self-criticism. Love your nose, rhinoplasty is wayyyy too expensive. Plus, your man loves it. He also find those lips perfect. Okay go do that lip injection if that helps you . You’re a badass. You’re smart, bubbly, generous, sensitive. Keep it up future me, I love you. -from your worst enemy , yourself Ps: happy birthday !! 23 today !! You a baddie, you made it.
