A letter from May 23rd, 2020

Dear FutureMe, Hey queen I know these past few years have not necessarily been the easiest but i am so proud of you as a person and how far you have come. Remember when you used to have mental breakdowns and anxiety attacks you have grown so much. I know you thought you couldn't do it and weren't going to make it to where you are now but you did and this is just the beginning don't let anyone get in your way of being the best version of yourself, you will be great no if ands or buts about it. I also want you to know that giving up is not the key and never will be. You are too strong to let your demons win, you have to persevere. Anyways……. In case you don't remember where you were at in life 5 years ago let me tell you. You were 17 living at home, senior year got canceled and it felt like life was not going your way. You had been through many mental health battles and struggled with depression. You had just got accepted into Dillard University and were excited to see what life has in store for you and your future. You had been planning to start your own business promoting self love. Mentally you could be better everyday is a new lesson, and you are learning how to control your temper and emotions but for the most part you are doing well. You have many mixed emotions about attending Dillard but you know it is your first step to starting fresh, creating life of your own and starting the first few steps of independence. Enough rambling though I just want to say how strong and beautiful you are. I am proud for all that you have accomplished through heartbreak, depression and family losses. You still manage to fight and come out victorious. I LOVE YOU and don't you ever forget it because self love is the best love. And Remember this letter does not give you the Okay to let up on the grind this is motivation to go 10x harder than ever before and be the person who leaves their legacy behind you are destine for big things in the near future, so keep your head lifted high and GO BIG OR GO HOME. oh and P.S that thing you are thinking about doing but are hesitant to do so you told yourself you are waiting on a sign or something DO IT this is the sign you were looking for do it with no regrets. Love, Your Younger self P.S.{ A BAD *****}
