A letter from Jul 17th, 2021

Dear FutureMe, As someone who always knows exactly what to say, I’m surprised to say I’m at a loss for words right now. I’m about to start a new chapter of my life and I have no idea how it’s going to go. I don’t know what kind of person I’ll be, whether I’ll succeed or not, if I’ll still have the same goals or the same friends, or even what I’ll look like by then. I sure as hell didn’t know I’d be where I am today or even that I’d be making this decision at all. But I’m proud of you for doing it. I’m so proud of you for following through, for enlisting and deciding that you would fight for your goals no matter what the challenge was. If anyone can do it it’s you. I should know after all. Like you always say, there are no successful people that haven’t failed a million times and god **** have you failed before. And you will fail again. You can count on it. I know there will be times where you feel like giving up and I know that you never will. All your fears will become stories to tell when you overcome them. I hope you have stories to tell when you’re older. I hope you remember that you’re allowed to be happy, and that you can be loved. I see how hard you fight even if no one else does. And I’m so proud of you for it. I’ll see you on the moon. Yours respectfully, Me
