Letter to my future self

I write this letter to my future self because I am experiencing sensations that I would not like to forget over the years. I want that when time has passed and my future self has been filled with experiences, I return to this letter and take a short moment to stop and think: If we don’t know where we come from or who we were, how will it be possible to know where we are going or what we want?

I just want a break and for him to stop and reflect… Would you dare to do the same and send a letter to your future self?

Letter to my future self: I don’t want you to forget

Dear me, I do not want you to forget everything that makes you so happy today, that is why I am writing to you, because in the projection towards infinity that this letter means I hope that every day you continue to go to bed with a smile. Whether thanks to the friends you have, the work you do, the social life you maintain, the laziness you overcome to not stop fighting for what you like, your hobbies, which I hope you have not abandoned. At least not all of them, and if you have done it, you have found better replacements for them.

I’m sure that when you read this letter, the memories you navigate through will have a lot of joy. Great, catch it, don’t let the years that have passed mutate the emotion and expression on your face. Take it back and give it life again. My wish is that you, Future me, don’t get lost in bitter temptations and do not make yourself small in the face of difficulties.

Future me, in this letter I want to tell you the dreams I have, the aspirations for which I get up and strive every day. When you are reading this see if you have achieved what you wanted; If not, be smart, keep going if your strength and conviction allow it, otherwise stay with what you have learned. Remember that an experience only becomes a failure when we try to erase it, rejecting the time that had the opportunity to teach us.

Dear me…

I don’t want to forget everything I feel today and I wouldn’t like you to forget it either. Serve this letter as a souvenir key. I write to you from a happy stage (you see that it is not always melancholy, fortunately, that inspires my letters). Don’t forget your tools, everything that has made you advance to where you are now, make the most of your little jar of willpower, but don’t abuse it because that would mean that you are doing something that doesn’t fulfill you. Take a deep breath and continue: many of the clouds that cast shadows on the horizon are not real.

Don’t forget that projects need time, that people need time, that work takes time, that You are the one who controls your time and not the other way around, as many believe.. Become the owner of it and give it meaning, so that it does not pass without telling anything, may time speak, may moments fill those clocks with stories.

In this letter you will find the adventures you have lived, what makes you proud of yourself today, but above all what makes you special and different. What makes you unique and my future self I want to remain that way, if it is not and you are not smiling right now, stop and think, what do I want and where am I going? Don’t let getting older kidnap the girl who partly writes today too.

I want you, my future self…

I want you, my future self, to not forget your origin, and that is why I am writing to you, remember everything you carry behind you. More than being grateful, enjoy who is by your side, and who walks the path with you. If you are remembering right now someone who was there but lost contact, call them, thank them for the place they occupy in your memory and in your smile.

In this letter to my future self, my entire essence is lit with desires and hopes, my desire to continue, my desire to continue learning. I don’t want them to get lost along the way: if that’s the case, take care of finding them again, we can’t allow the wind to dictate their destiny.

I hope that you, my future self, have known how to grow and adapt without getting lost along the way. I want you to write another letter to my future self and make stronger this proof that there are dreams that are worth it: both imagined, planned, lived, even not materialized.. Lives.

And you who now read… What would you say to your future self?

Have you decided to write your own letter to your future self? What would you like to say to him?

Taking into account that it is such a personal and profound message, the first thing to do this simple exercise is to take a moment, pause introspectively and think about all those things that are valuable to you at this precise moment. The task of writing a letter to yourself will allow you to be more aware of the way you speak to yourself, what words you use towards yourself, and how kind you treat yourself.

It will also help you imagine what you will be like in the future, start building new dreams and take steps to achieve them. Your future self is just a projection of who you are today.so this exercise will also be very useful for you to know, honestly, how you feel now, what things make you happy or, on the contrary, what in your life you would like to change.

Give yourself the opportunity to get to know yourself more deeply and take some time to write that letter to a loved one. To you.
