A letter from May 26th, 2022

Dear Future Me, I firmly believe that our life in the future will either be amazing with great potential, everything set out for us and just waiting for us to complete it, or, a hole filled with water that we've fallen into and have started to drown in. Either way, no one can clean our life up but us. Stop being selfish and blow your ego down a bit so we don't set too high expectations for ourselves. I don't know what I'll be like in the future, and I won't find out until I'm there, but don't disappoint me by giving up. Whether we're failed by our body or mind doesn't matter. If our paved path can't be travelled, go off course. We might be in the army, the police, a medic position, a teachers, I don't know, anything, just make sure we 100% want it. No doubts. No regrets. If we can't complete our dreams, then we'll create new ones. Got that? If, somehow, we have a relationship with someone, don't let them hold you back, just include them and get them aware in what they're getting into. If they stay, then we continue on with the story, if they don't, we move onto the next chapter. Remember to call mum often, she gets sad and lonely. Message Dad with updates so he knows he hasn't failed us. Keep in touch with our brother, you love him more than the world. And do not, I repeat, do not, give up. If you give up then you were never worthy in the first place. Sincerely, Past Me. xoxox P.S No matter grades, life will be different. P.P.S You're awesome :)
