A letter from Mar 01, 2023

Dear FutureMe, I hope that you have succeeded in ways that you couldn't imagine. I pray that emotionally you are in a better place and are at peace with whom you have become. You have been through so many storms and in the end you still have a heart of gold. Stop letting people take advantage of you and put YOU first. I pray that you find the love that you have been wanting. You have always been very open with your heart but I hope that you grow to not letting people in so easily. I want you to make you proud. Not anyone else, but you. Stop trying to fit the standards of others and be your true self. The past is in the past and we can't go back and change anything that happened but we can make the next day better than yesterday. Flowers can't bloom unless they receive rain. There will be some patches that you will face but you're strong and you have always been. No one truly understood what demons you were facing but I am certain that you will become the best in your eyes. I pray that you one day have a family to love and protect. Even though we really don't want kids, sometimes they are what we need. I hope that you give them everything that you didn't;t have growing up but also teach them. Teach them that life isn't easy and it doesn't get easier. Take it one day at a time. Don't be in such a rush for everything because it will happen in due time. I pray that you overcome those suicidal ideations that you had growing up. Focus and never let anyone take away your happiness. Everyone doesn't deserve you time and energy but also don't be afraid to explore beyond your horizons. You are beautiful, smart, and well capable of facing any challenge that is thrown your way.
