A letter from February 20th, 2021

Time Travelled — over 2 years

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, Hello there. I know there's still this child self of you inwards, if you've forgotten what I told you before; Don't ignore her. If possible then play with her. You never achieved the kind of childhood you onced and forever will long for but that's for a purpose. In the first place, admit it or nah, you're longing for that portion of your life again. I want to remind you again to be the kind of person your 6 year old self needed the most. Don't push yourself pretty hard; what's for you will always find its way to you. Never ever doubt yourself again alright? Above everything else, among anyone else, you yourself must be the very first person to believe in what you can do. Who else will? No one will ever believe you can if you can't even believe in you. I always knew you can do something great if you just have the courage to do so. Failure has always been a part of every success so as fear but it is your choice if you'll let your fear take over you. I love you, I want you to reach what you've been aiming for so long. Remember this, past and future does not exist, it's all in your head. Never let it intervene on your present. What's today is all that matters. Hey baby, moreover, I want to tell you to always be careful okay? But never cautious. I hope you get what I mean. Your mediocrity doesn't make you a lesser individual so please don't look down on yourself. It'll never make you a less person, lacking of understanding and harmony can. People are made to bring out the best in each other and I've always thought that if you do the other way around, I won't even consider your existence. If ever you became that kinda person which I wish you never become, I hope you seek for me within you, you are never alone. Engrave that in mind. I am always guiding you, hear me out. I am always with you because you matter. I wrote this bearing the thought of ‘What'd be my future self be like? I hope she always follows what brings her joy and puts a curve on her lips.’ Never let life's toughness get into you alright? I know it's effin' hard but would you believe me if I said you onced did it? What you're trying hard to control has been controlling you. Don't suppress it and let it take its own natural path. Don't make things hard for yourself. It is always about understanding. I want to teach you once again those things that you might have forgotten now. I trust you but I'm worried you might not wanna remember everything again because you think it is a weakness? Crying is not, being soft is not, smiling is not and will never be. Weakness is disowning your limits and not trying to work on it. What do I mean by limits? Everything that's holding you back. You. You are everything. Everything is in you. Why would you disown yourself? Did you lost yourself again trying to go with the flow, trying to keep up with them, trying to conceal yourself because you think it's a shame? What are you ashamed of? You talking to cats? You being attached to anything anyone might find crazy? You being happy even on a small present or a gesture of someone because you think it is rude and they're too thoughtful and kind to you to not appreciate what they did? You're ashamed because you live differently? Due to family relationship? Financial situation? Can't keep up with the trend? Whatever it is, it is your choice what and where to look. Gratefulness is the most awesome feeling in the world. Never lose yourself, if you do, seek for me in you, I'll always attend to whatever it is that you need. Whether you need me or not, I'll always guide you in any way I possibly can. It is never shameful to be you. I am you, you'll always find me only if you'll look within. – Your inner self wanting you to toughen up as life gets even more terrifying. Y O U A R E A L W A Y S A W E S O M E. If they startled you, roar at them then give them a genuine and caring smile for a wishful thinking of finding their own purpose and walk on its right path that illuminates simultaneously with their hopeful heart.
