A letter from November 22nd, 2023

Time Travelled — almost 2 years

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe,
Sometimes I think about how many times I'm going to sob my entire heart out. Like screaming, wailing, where I can't even breathe and I can't stop the gut-wrenching from escaping my lungs. Flailing and thrashing and grasping for anything to hold onto and take the pain away. I've only experienced this a couple of times in my 21 years, and I wonder how many more times I will.
But then I also think about how many times I'll laugh so hard I can't breathe, so hard tears and snot are streaming down my face and I double over and no sound is even leaving my lips but overjoyed gasping. When the most mundane things suddenly become the funniest things to ever exist because of the people I'm with and the beautiful day that it is.That happens more often, and I think its worth it.
I hope you experience more joy than pain in your life. I think so far I have. 💕
