A letter from May 17th, 2022

Dear Future Me, As I listen to the talk about Moving forward in faith, I want to give you this advice that life may get tough and you think to yourself that it's not worth the work. As he says at the start “‘You must learn to walk to the edge of the light, and then a few steps into the darkness” to start to see light in your life darkness has to fall. Failure brings faith, to see that all the things that you do may not amount to much, but it will make you stronger and bring you closer to your goal and to Christ. Even when you feel that you are falling away, I advise you to keep your heart open have faith that it will work out in the end. It may not be instant but it will work out in the end, DON’T LOSE FAITH! Don’t be afraid to ask for help, I know you always believe that only you can do this and asking for help is a weakness. But it's not, ask for help there are so many resources that you can turn to for help and advice. Talk to your friends and family, don’t hold in all of those feeling let it out, when you hold it in it makes you more stressed and you start to fall down. Those feelings of stress and helplessness are okay but talk to someone, holding things in makes it worse. Have faith that think will be okay, have faith that you are being led in the right direction, have faith in the dark times, have faith that your friends and family will be there for you. Jill my advice to you is to have faith and don’t lose it. You are deserving of love and success don’t forget that. I hope that when you read this you are doing okay even if in the present day you feel all of this is too much, I promise you that it will be worth it in the end. Also I need an update on if you ever did anything with your feelings for william, becuase by this time in three years he should be home and your married to him or married to someone elese (which is totaly fine, Dear future husband, I STILL LOVE YOU EVEN IF IT IS NOT THE PERSON STATED ABOVE!!!!!)
