A letter from August 23rd, 2020

Dear FutureMe, I don’t know when you’ll get this letter but I just wanted to tell you how my life is right now. It’s august 23 2020 we are currently in a global pandemic. It’s crazy how much has changed in just 6 months. However we are doing fine. Dad is walking around with hand sanitizer everywhere he goes. But we are doing fine. I just started high school. I’m happy, I’m happier than what I was 3 months ago. I’m with people who actually cares about me. I have no idea what I want to be in the future. I’m guessing you are in university right now. I’ve always liked to travel, see new places experience new cultures and meet new people. I want to be a flight attendant or maybe a pilot. But because we live in a world where ****** and racism still exist it may be harder to be a pilot. But that doesn’t stop me from following my dreams. You will always meet ****** and racism in your life but the most important thing to do is to acknowledge that some people won’t change their minds about their beliefs. That’s something you can’t change. There will always be stubborn people who believe they are right and everybody in the world are wrong *trump* don’t put so much energy on them. Because that’s what they want you to do. Believe what you believe and **** everybody else. Because they haven’t experienced ****** and racism. In the future my goal is to be happy. Doing something that makes me happy. Be with someone who makes me happy. Life is hard but not doing something about it is harder. If you are reading this and you are at a point where you have given up on everything, you are doing something you hate and with someone who makes you feel like ****. That’s not who you are. You are not someone who gives up. You know your worth. You know that happiness is the most important thing in life. I’m going to end this letter with a quote dad told me a few months ago but remember be happy and DONT give up! “Sometimes you got to accept your situation and keep going” Meaning- if you spend your time hating who you are and where you are in life it won’t make it better just walking around being mad. Accept your situation and make a change!
