Dear 17 Year Old Self,
Hey there! Hello!! I know exactly what you're going through. So, I won't ask how you are doing. It is me, your future 30 year old Self, reaching out to remind you of your incredible bravery, strengths, and life path. First thing first, That math test you are worried about? We've got this – you will pass! And I know you are stressing about the 12th-grade biology, too. Don't stress over it; it's not as tough as it seems – you'll impress yourself by naming all the vertebrae! I still remember those late night study sessions. And let me tell you, you absolutely nailed your dance performance at the farewell party! Keep shining bright; amazing things are ahead!
You know, I often wonder about that guy—what attracted us to him? I don't want to start with his dressing style. His style was disastrous, and he frequently found himself in conflict, so bandana was quite the choice! I think we should focus on making better choices together; you deserve someone amazing. And hey, the thing about our nose; it is perfectly fine—no worries there! Let's keep moving forward with positivity!
Jokes apart!! Let's take a moment to look back and be grateful for everything we have. I advise you to relish your present instead of worrying about the future. These days are precious and won't last forever. So, soak up every moment with friends and explore the world. Experience life. Life is too short to be serious all the time! Keep smiling!
With my life experience, I can tell you that our appearances don't define who we are! Intelligence, kindness, and dedication shape a person's true identity. Being recognized for your brains, hard work, and character is far more meaningful than just beauty. Today, celebrate your achievements! Mom couldn't be prouder of us for the remarkable person you are becoming. Keep shining!
Embrace your transformation into a stunning moth! Change is good; accept it. Don't try to resist it; try to progress with it. I promise you will tackle life's challenges with independence and courage. Just keep believing in yourself. Your resilience will shine through every time you face difficulties head on, learning and growing. While our journey hasn't always been easy, you've turned setbacks into stepping stones. Remember, every struggle has made us stronger and wiser. Keep flying forward with confidence and joy!
You are your biggest supporter through every challenge you face! While knights in shining armor are found only in stories, you are your own hero, bravely fighting your battles. You show incredible strength and character each time you rise after a fall. Do not be afraid of failing; it is always worth trying. Your failures will tell your unique story; those scars will define your character. Keep fighting!
As you hop on this exciting journey called life and adulting, you'll meet an array of people throughout. I must say, it is a thrilling rollercoaster ride full of ups and downs, which I am sure you will enjoy. There will be co-passengers, some known faces and some unknown faces. Some will offer valuable life lessons, while others will shine like beacons, guiding you forward. Each individual is the distinct color of the canvas of your life. Rather than narrating their impact and contribution, I want you to recognize how they shape us into the confident woman we are today and add to our story. So, gear up and embrace these challenges—wonderful experiences await you! Keep moving forward!
I want to assure you that we're truly living our dream and embracing the best version of ourselves. While we're proud of our independence, we also recognize the importance of self-care. Now, we're excited to slow down and savor life, embracing every moment with gratitude and warmth. Here's to the adventures ahead!
Everything will get better with time. You just have to be patient. Work on personal growth and take responsibility for your choices. Take care of yourself. Remember, you're amazing! Be kind to yourself; everything will turn out wonderfully. Keep thriving!
Yours,
30 Year Old Self
