Dear Future Me

Dear Future Me,

You are indefinite. You are infinite. You are charged by every racing molecule in your body that drives you to be the best version of yourself that you can possibly be. Don't crop and edit yourself because you are perfect for your imperfections. But that is just a small reminder of something you should know by now.

Dear future me, don't forget the struggles you faced, the endeavors overcame, because that's what you like. That's what makes you, you. Still know your hustle. Bask in that glory as you begin to conquer things you never imagined. Continue to let everyone know that you sold cupcakes to make shit happen for yourself. You are determined. Able bodied. Versatile. Let your accomplishments remind you in any time of struggle that you are prosperous, beautiful and wonderfully made.

Dear future me, do you still base your self worth on the approval of that boy you like? You know the one that everyone praises, though he's no messiah. Remember your years of being okay without him. And when any man tries to take advantage of you, remember you don't need them to define you. You are able to complete anything you will allow yourself to be committed to.

Dear future me, don't forget about past me. You know, the one that cried in the many different rooms you lived in. The window you contemplated jumping out of, the scars that have molded onto your arm. The scars that scream I am a survivor of the war on myself. Love all versions of yourself and continue to engage in what makes you feel free.

Dear future me, any problems with friends and family are momentary, apologize or wait for an apology to come to you. It all works out in the end, you are appreciated and you are loved.

Dear future me, I love you, now remember to love me.

Sincerely,
You
