A letter from June 26th, 2024

Darling Mae, A very happy birthday to you. It seems like it really is your day even though it doesn't feel like it, but I guess that's just how birthday's works, the more you get older the less you feel excited, fearing the reality of the world as you came closer to being an adult. Growing up as a child, birthday's are very special because it is a symbol of ageing and being special, you're very happy to age each year thinking that when you're older you'll be able to live free, buy every toy you wanted, and be able to go on an adventure. Thinking back that was very silly of you (or should I say "us"), I realized that, that's not how it works. Yeah you can still travel the world, buy the toys that you like but not all of them, you can live freely but not "free" from all responsibilities that the world has given you, not really. But you can try, try working hard so that you can buy all the toys in the world, go on an adventure without worrying about the expenses (and take mama and kuya with you of course), live freely from judgement of the world and mundanes. You can do all of that if you work hard enough (by "enough" I mean work your *** out, be billionaire or a millionaire at least). I know it's very deep for a 16 years old girl, but it surely is inspirational (at least for me it is). Many of your love ones greeted you on your special day by the way:) HAPPY SWEET SIXTEEN🎉, darling💕
Wishing you all the best, Your 15 years old self:)
