Letter to Myself in My Musings

Dear younger self,

At this moment, you’re most likely living your best life. Aside from the homework, crushes, and hobbies, there’s not a hint of worry in your heart at all.

I wrote from the future to let you know that it will not always be like that. You’ll have a heartbreak or two, make a number of wrong decisions, and experience the loss of loved ones. It will reach a point of questioning your existence and worth.

This is not meant to discourage you; rather, it is guidance that life happens and disappointments run abound. When you get to encounter these, do not let doubt and misery take over. Keep heart and stay true to your nature - that of someone who sees the good in everyone. That way, you’ll continue to see life in all its glory.

I’m proud for what you are now, and for what you will become. I remain as your truest ally, best friend, and fan.

Love,
Your older self
