A letter from March 14th, 2023

Dear FutureMe, I know you can’t pinpoint your emotions. I know you can’t feel. I see you and I understand. You’ve been through so much at such a young age that it’s made you numb. You wanted to feel but you couldn’t. All the anger and hurt was there but was hidden away. Please don’t do that because ultimately… you’re hurting yourself. It’s okay to cry. It’s okay to smile. It’s okay to unleash every single feeling that you’re suppressing inside of you. I love you so much. You’re strong. Hang in there.
