A letter from September 3rd, 2020

Dear FutureMe, Hello, this is you from the past, not sure when you will get this letter because it's sort of like a time capsule in a way. It's like this letter is going to be buried somewhere but on the internet and it will be dug up by you in the future. It's kind of thrilling in a way because I'm not sure where the road goes, quite honestly I hope that the road leads to the fond future that you have dreamt about, and still have fire and desire for the things you love. The drive that you give and the thoughtless vibe when it comes to others opinions and what they think you can or cannot do. I hope that the fire never burns out but all things come to an end. I hope that you can read this letter with compassionate feelings, if you are still here, so I will also send it to mom as well just in case. But let's try to get past the grim and darkness if you will that is portrayed through the start. How are you doing? What do you do for a living? Who do you love? Who has been lost? Who is still there? There is a 50 year list of questions that I have for you and I would like you to answer but of course they won’t all fit. If you don’t remember much, you love to play basketball, it’s an everyday thing, you like to workout , you love to play videogames, hangout with your family, and You have to play music everyday. It's very important, Music is a blessing to billions of people and you are one of them who cherish it, and I don't think I can express how much I love the music. But you love a lot of things and that's great. On to the fears portion, honestly I dont really fear anything unless its a challenging situation where the outcome is depending on the future. I also fear to fail, failing is good and it's a motivator but when you fail at life and **** hits the fan it can get bad. A lot of people fear ***** but it's inevitable and can happen whenever and of course you would know about that. The key values in my life are to be strong minded and not one sided. I want to be the smartest as can be, to have the knowledge to teach others is impeccable in all honesty. I want to be a successor not a disappointment, I have witnessed way too many disappointments in my life in which I know them personally, and it's not fun to watch them always down themselves from previous choices that were brought upon them. I want to go far in whatever I do, I want to lead a path for others who are just like me, who are sort of unconfident and dont have the full support that is needed to fill the gap. Overall I want to be a leader, someone to look up to in dire times or when a little push is needed. Skills and abilities of mine are many, yet there is always room for improvement in all sectors of life in all honesty. I would say i'm good at advice and decisive decision making whether that be in key moments or in everyday situations. I would say that I'm at a decent place in basketball because improvement is necessary even for the greats. I would say that I am a great person and I absolutely do not mean that in a cocky manner. Even though I can be down some of the time I try to not let it take over, I don't want to let myself go. Self perseverance is KEY in life. Right now I miss Grandpa, Grandma and Alex and the others, I think of them alot and it hurts to not have them here, it does honestly because it is unfortunate. You were busy all the time so the time with them was shorter than you liked and it broke you down to the core. ***** is unexpected and I know it's inevitable but it hurts so much. It was like the world was punishing you but it’s been like that for a while and it probably wont ever stop, but you said **** the world and gave eveything from within you the past couple months to make the best version of you. It's been 6 months since grandpa passed and it doesn't get easier but life goes on, long live all of them. Right now we are in the coronavirus pandemic which literally sucks. We have to do online school which is frustrating but I suppose it works. Right now you are going through some things but it'll be okay, the puzzle is not fully finished, The road is bumpy and that's fine. Save your money, like you always have. Cherish Mom and Dad because anything is possible. Keep that spark in you. Continue to be you and if they dont like it **** em, sorry for the vulgar language but its the honest truth. Do you enjoy life at this moment? How is everything going? Like I said before there are a lot more questions in which I asked in the beginning. I hope you are still that leader, I hope the great soul in which its old and packed with knowledge and prosperity is still there, I hope the damage has not gotten worse, I hope that things are falling into place and not out, I hope the music still helps, I hope that the love is still there, I hope there is no more sleepless nights where you can't control emotions thinking of the ways things were, and of course I hope that you are still there, many people don't make it out and I Hope you did. With love and hopefulness, Dominic I hope you read this. Sincerely, Dominic Miller September, 3rd, 2020
