A letter from Aug 17, 2024

Dear Future Me, Please please please have faith in yourself. Don't give up on your goals or yourself. You have a long life ahead of you. You're only 16. I know things seem tough right now going into your junior year and don't know what to expect. Parents fighting, losing friends, gaining and losing weight, drama, acne, stress, overwhelmed. But when you get older everything will be ok. You will make new connections, find a job, go to college, get your license, cry, laugh, feel terrible, and be so proud of yourself. You have trust your intuition and be positive in situations you go through. Please try your absolute best in school and everything. I will support you through mistakes you make and challenges you go through. I hope you learn to love and accept yourself as you are :)
