Dear Future Self,
Soon, you will be entering the real world. Currently, you're terrified. Yet, you are absolutely thrilled. This inability to accurately describe how you feel about growing up is the most wonderful experience. It is within these bittersweet moments, we call most beautiful. What lies ahead for you is far greater than all you can imagine.
My dear, tomorrow's horizon is near. The day may bring unbelievable difficulty. It may bring you to your knees in pain and mourning. The day may bring you confusion and leave you distraught. I promise you, there will be days such as this. But my dear, I hope you do not let the "it may's" cripple you, and I hope you confidently march on. "It may" many things, yet we must go live the day. We cannot let fear rule our lives, only optimism and love.
Tomorrow's horizon is near. The day may bring beauty beyond all comparison. Tomorrow holds opportunity, and hope and promise to cling to. It holds memories yet to be made and life yet to be lived. I hope you never take the beautiful days and moments for granted. The possibilities that lie ahead for you are wonderful, and I hope you fall in love with those mysteries. I hope you fall in love with living.
I hope you are happy with who you have become. I won't write in here my future plans, because I do not wish to be disappointed. What I will write in here is that no matter where you are when you read this letter, I hope you find comfort in the fact that you are where you are for a reason. I know while writing this, you are currently terrified to not have a life you fall in love with. You are scared to never be successful, yet success, my dear, is built within you. Your life will turn out how it is meant to, nothing goes according to plan. Fire is in your soul, and love is in your heart, and that is the mark of a wonderful being.
I hope the eyes that are reading this have seen love, and I hope the heart that feels this remains beautiful.
Future self, you will become a world-changer, whether it be for the entire one, or simply someone's. May every action be pursued out of pure love, and every moment considered precious. You are strong, and I expect you to continue to be. I hope you cling to the Lord in all circumstances, trusting in Him.
Future self, I want to live a beautiful life. I hope when you read this some day, this remains true. I hope the horizons of your tomorrows hold hope within them.
My dear, may your love for Christ be evident in all you do. With that, you have the power to conquer, to love, and to inspire.
I hope your life is something worth living, and that all days are beautiful.
Love,
My Current Self
