letter to myself in the future

To me in the past,

I wish I could convey to you how I feel at the moment. Seeing everyone graduate off and move on to their path's. I cannot tell you exactly how I feel at the moment. For now all I can say however is to enjoy yourself. It will not last forever and you are going to get rushed in to becoming an adult but I know you well enough to know your capabilities at the times you will be in. I can only tell you two things to do which are to trust the people around you at the moment and to be who you are.

If I were to go back to the time you are in, I would wish I could have treated all of the important people in our life the way they deserved. I am telling you this for a reason. I cringe at the thought of seeing the same mistakes made over again so I will put my faith into the old but improved version of me. I know I can put my faith into you. After all, we were the one to say the only person you can trust is yourself. However Michelle, that is not true. The amazing people around you will be more than the surficial amount needed to make it through the more difficult times in our life. I believe in you Michelle.

I know how difficult it was for you to be who you wanted to always be. I know how you could not believe the truth when handed to you because it was easier to believe in the lies but I want you to look past that and gaze in to the future, my present. It became such an easier thing to put your aspirations into. Finally I am able to be who I truly wanted to be and who I truly was but not after enduring many hardships and losing and sacrificing many things along the way. I want to tell you this so you can make the changes that are necessary and you can be happier sooner. I must go now, but I believe in you and our future.

Sincerely,
              Michelle
