A letter from the past

Time Travelled — almost 5 years

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, This is the first time I'm writing a long term letter to you. So idk what to say, how are you? Let me think, where would I be in 5 years? I would be in college, omg I'm like 21 now? Omg this is the age that di is of right now, as of today😳 What are you studying? What are your majors? Is the path clear now or is it still foggy? Which ever it is, I don't want you to lose faith in yourself. Your confidence is the best thing about you. Life has its lows and highs, so if you're not fine, it's okay to cry once in a while and let the emotions flow. And if everything's okay, remember to be grateful and never take anything for granted. Everything is hard earned so never forget it's value. Remember that it's okay to trust people, and it's fine if you have feelings for someone, just don't get into your head too often. Sometimes let things take their own shape and form instead of trying to change the course of the events, because it'll only make it complicated for you in future. And form friendships along the way, and it's okay to let go and be left alone sometimes. Don't fear pain. It's the part of the process. It's an inevitable happening and one that you should embrace with grace rather than trying to avoid. Let your wings spread and soar high and explore everything the world has to offer but don't forget to come back to the ground at times and don't forget your roots. It's okay if you haven't found your purpose yet. You'll find one as you go on. Let go of negativity within and toxic people. Love, let love and be loved. Remember love is more than a person, a place or a gender. Love is where you feel at home. Love is a universal language and it's okay if people tend to not speak or understand it. Try to educate them as you go. Just don't give up. That's not you. I'm just a 16 year old blabbering and I'm not sure that the advice I'm giving and the wisdom I have right now can be compared to you. But I just wanna see how much you've learnt as you grew up. How many of these theories were proven right and how many had to be improved and rewritten. Anyways, I hope you're happy, because if there's anything you deserve, it's happiness. I love you. - 16 year old you P. S. : I'll send more of these.
