A letter from July 21st, 2024

Dear FutureMe,
your brother turns 26 tomorrow. you are 17. don't be scared, kid. times moves fast and slowly. you keep pushing. find that inner peace. dig deep for your strength. protect your peace. kept implanting healthy habits. keep bettering yourself. excercise little and often. eat plant-based and non processed foods. take vitamin supplements. drink lots of water. get enough protein. run. keep make art. keep creating. process your emotions. hate your anger. cry. love. take risks. kiss that girl. buy her a bunch of red roses and take her out on a proper date. hug your family. tell your friends you love them. cry some more. pour out your thoughts onto paper. channel your anger through uncontrolled scribbles and harsh lines. make mistakes then learn from them. Never stop growing as a person. go that little bit further on a dog walk. make your mum tea and lunch. buy small gifts for those you love. thrift anything and everything you can. smell the rain. save the roman snails. read as many books as you can I'm proud of you and I I love you!!
