A letter to myself
There are so many ups and downs in life, and I have been lost along the way became demotivated. I have left so many things halfway like pursuing my goals or doing something important. I have been in that grey area for a long time and forgot my way back, so I want to write to myself and remind myself why I have been relentlessly trying to pursue or do what I have been doing.
My dear self,
How have you been keeping up with everything around you? How has life been treating you? Has it kicked you in your guts yet or are you still breezing through it all? I know things have been tough recently with everything coming together and making your life a stressful one. But with perseverance and commitment, you will get through it all. I know life hasn’t been all cushiony for you, but it gets better and I know you have tasted those glorious days. Those days where you felt invincible and you had it all everything you dreamt of. You are building yourself something right this moment and I am beyond grateful for laying that foundation for yourself.
You are still getting to know yourself and I promise you it gets better just recently you found out what kind of person you were. One of your friends told you that you were intense in expressing your emotion and to that, I say hell yes. You are not only intense in your writings but emotions too, you feel deeply for every living being and that is a good thing even if it doesn’t feel that way right now. You love, feel and express intensely to every living being around you. That just shows how caring you are in your nature and you believe in the goodness of everyone. Don’t you bring yourself down believing the unkind words from people and people gossiping around you, I know you can do better than that. I see your potential and I see a great woman in making.
One day you will wake up and everything will just be the way you wanted nothing less and nothing more, just a perfect bit of everything. So don’t give up on your dreams, sign up for the dance class that you have always wanting to do and the public speaking class that you have put aside. Don’t worry about how you are going to go for it, I am sure there will be something clearing up your way soon.
There are greater things in life if you could just step out of your bubble, instead of belittling yourself be the greatness that you have always envision yourself with. You know life has many gifts to offer. Do everything with kindness because one day everything exterior will fade and your soul would be left bare for the world to see. Let them see that intense compassionate and kind soul that you are.
Be whatever you want to be and do whatever you want to do but be a kind one.
People put labels on anything these days so don’t judge yourself too harshly. Don’t have a herd mentality, you do your own thing. Be around people who have similar dreams like you and burns your soul on fire.
Keep writing no matter how shitty it sounds and the whole article is filled with errors and mistakes keep going because one day you will be at a different place grateful for not stopping what you loved the most. Keep singing even if no one listens to your songs and keep learning and growing. Always cultivate good habits and try to get rid of a habit that doesn’t help you. Have the courage to do what’s right for you and always be grateful for this life. This is a precious time you have been given to live in this world don’t take it for granted.
