A letter from June 25th, 2022

Maia, Happy Birthday. You are beautiful, amazing and so kind. I pray you’ve kept going and that you’ve created a life for yourself. I pray you’ve done the work to start your internet comic book and that you’ve continued to heal. i pray you have healed. I pray you are healing. You are loved because i love you. Please know that even if you’ve done nothing these past few years but eat, **** work and sleep that is ok and i’m still proud of you. You still survived. The fact you are reading this means you survived. you conquered yourself and you have been doing SOMETHING at the least to keep you afloat. I pray you are enjoying your 30th birthday. I pray your locs are flourishing and beautiful. I pray you are healthy, wealthy and that *****. I pray for every good thing that could happen to you is happening or has happened. I pray you never gave up on your art or creativity. I pray you have friends that care about you and love you. I know EYE will see what you see now, once i grow into you but i’m scared. I’m just going a little anxiety and negative self talk, it will pass. I believe in you. I believe in my self. I pray we are still in the white oaks apartment. Imma also pray for a partner cause that’s just how i am lol. It’s 3:42 am and i’m just mad chilling can’t really sleep like i want to. Idk why. I decided to write this in the hopes i forget and it becomes a fun little surprise for your 30th…my gift to you. idk what else to say or put here. idk people be having these cute fun little messages for they future selves. i am lazy though and i’m not doing all of that. i just want to type out whatever comes up off the top of my head because that’s what feels most genuine to me. i wish you could write one to your past self lol. not even to tell me the future but just to like ya know gimme some typa clarity or positivity. i’m tired. Happy 30th Bday, Maia King ~ <**********************>
