A letter from May 4th, 2021

Dear future me (Joud), HAPPY 16TH BIRTHDAY!!! You are 16 right now! you finally became a "sweet sixteen bday girl"!! I Hope you are doing okay? how are you feeling? I am not doing so well right now but I just want to say I am in 7th grade right now! you? did you start praying? I hope you will achieve a lot of things. Just remember I am so proud of you right now, keep going, I love and remember that you're loved even if no one loves you, I do and don't forget "a smile is the prettiest thing to wear" I didn't write a lot but I just needed to say those things. bye, I love you <3!
