A letter from the past
Dear future self,
Hey hope you are doing ok. 2020 has been pretty rough - you've been laid off, you've had to go home, been put through the wringer, been heavily pressured to be a cellphone making tech. You've fought with your parents once a week.
You've struggled with a lot of ideas, conditional love and decided it isn't a thing. You've treated your friends terribly, but amazingly they still like you even though you ghost literally everything and everyone except roy and peter.
You've rebuilt relations with your parents, you might be going into a job with clear red flags. I don't know if this will be a good idea, but this could be a great experiment for trying new ways to manage stress. I really hope I'll come out of this happier and stronger and more confident, and hopefully less burnt out than my time doing research in Maryland.
Cheers - also hopefully the plant is still alive.
