A letter from Sep 16th, 2021

Dear Future Me, I know that life hasn't been really easy for you, but despite with everything happening, you've managed to keep yourself together. I hope that you could stop being so hard in yourself. everything will make sense to you one day. Maybe the pain, and frustration would be somewhat worth it in the end. Trust the flow of your life and don't rush things. Don't take everything seriously and try not to let others down. Even though you think you are broken, there are so much to see. Don't keep things to yourself and I hope you could start opening up to others. You are stronger than you think and nothing can tear you down. Create a life for yourself that you can be proud of. Never let anyone get in the way of your goals. Most importantly, chase your dreams and never give up on your passion. You deserve the world and maybe even a little more. And lastly, never forget to love yourself first before anyone else. Sincerely, 18 year old you
