A letter from Apr 11, 2025

Dear 23 year old Esther I can’t believe you’re here for real I know it’s super cheesy, but I love you and I love that I love you, I love learning how to love you and I’m so happy to be loving you Honestly, you’re amazing, no like it’s not even cap, I’m not even just whyining you, I really do think you’re an amazing person, like gosh, God really did a number when he was creating you for real. Cause like beauty, intelligence, virtues, you embody it all. Likeeeeee I honestly just love you so much and I have so much compassion for you, you deserve all the love in the world, you are amazing and strong and honestly I’m trying not to exaggerate here but it’s hard to exaggerate when you really are all these things. I love you , I love you so so so very much Hmm, you’re 23 now o. Big ma***, I hope you’ve hit your income goals cause na the koko be that now o. You’ve come so far, I remember that’s 8 year old you that was so scared and so alone , but look at you now , it makes me want to cry just writing this, you’ve grown to be so compassionate and yet so resilient at the same time. You’re so so strong and so soft at the same time and I love it for you. You wouldn’t believe how much I actually love you, it’s crazy. I want to ask you about things but I also don’t want to ruin your mood. This time last year, you were just about to finally break it off with Ikay- how did that go, de you still do it? I bet you’re happier now aren’t you? Are you in a relationship now? (I know you want to be because of the companionship but also don’t want to be because of the emotional stress and you say you want to focus on career). In any case, I’m absolutely definitely rooting for you. Whatever your choice was Also you’re not on the best terms with your parents right now, and you still weren’t, this time on the birthday before this one (2024) . My greatest desire and my greatest prayer point is that you’ve resolved all of that, and are now happy. Most importantly, I hope you’ve stayed close to Mary, she’s the one whose been there for you through thick and thin, she’s really been there for you always, I hope you’re not thinking of abandoning her, I hope you’re not in any foolish stage where you’re not praying your Rosary. Pray your Rosary o, talk to Mary oo, She really loves you and wants to help and she’s really already been such a great help till date - with everything: business, relationships, everything really. Thank God that’s he gave us Mary. Last but not least, I love you and I always will and I am always your number one fan, Alyssa here, always. Alwayssssss. I love you so so so so so muchhhhh. Muahhhhhhh. Oh and I’m finishing you with kisses all over, so as I say xoxo, make sure you actually kiss and hug yourself. I love love love you.
