A letter from September 10th, 2020

Time Travelling — almost 5 years

Peaceful right?

Dear future me How are you Sijie? You must be really happy and great right now! Don't forget all your friends in Kansas and Las Vegas during high school. Today is 2020/9/20,time goes really fast. You are a senior now.Every age number only has one. Right now I just want to have a good future. I still remember the first day I walked in high school. I asked the class of 2017’senior how high school is. I am so regretful that I didn't write about a future me by that time,so I can read when I graduate. I don't know what kind of character you will be in the future. Maybe in the future, your identity is not worth mentioning. You have become one of the thousands of migrant workers, and you are carrying your own dreams for your family. Still working hard. Maybe, in the future, you will become a bachelor, and step into your dream studio. Entered a job that I like. But please keep in mind that you are just an ordinary member and nothing great. Maybe, in the future, you will not do anything, you will just do the most common occupation among tens of millions of men-father. I hope you must be a competent dad. There is nothing to be sad about that. After all, there will always be big ups and downs in life, and I believe that every point of loss must be a great preparation for the next high jump. I really don't know what you will become in the future, or what kind of profession and what kind of lifestyle you will choose. No matter what, I hope you stick to it. Please grit your teeth, work hard once and persevere. Never tell yourself to give up. In the future, you will surely think of the present bit by bit. Think of someone you have missed, a thing you have been worried about. However, please remember, never use busyness as an excuse. Take a look at the old classmates, and then look back at the place where we left smiling faces and sweat and tears. Please always remember these precious people who appeared in life. In any case, they have taught you more and let you discern the true feelings of the world. Please always remember the people who helped you when you were most in distress. No matter what they are in the eyes of others, you should embrace him without hesitation. After a few years, your future self, you will definitely read this letter to yourself again. I don't know how tangled your mood will be. But I still ask you to read him carefully. Maybe some of them are still childish in your opinion, but this will indeed become a connection between us.
