Dear Future Self,
In the more than 24 years that you have lived in this world, you have experienced a lot. Even you have stumbled, been hurt, and been denied pleasure, yet as you can see, you are still getting stronger as you go through the difficulties of life. In case you receive this letter years from now, I want you to know that I am immensely proud of you. I can tell you that if you reread this, you already having a happy life. I want you to know that you deserve every bit of happiness in the life you have ahead of you. Your life has previously been difficult, and many people have mistreated you. I have faith that you will be a stronger woman no matter who is by your side in the future. Your personality strength makes me confident that your future professional life will be successful.

The only piece of advice I can offer to your younger self is to avoid trying to fit in with other people. I hope that you find the affection that you truly desire from others and that you will be loyal to them as well. Even though the world has been terrible to you in the past, I hope that you still grow into a full grown, respected woman and that as you progress in life, you don't become egotistical. Continue to go back to your roots and keep in mind those that supported you so that you can develop your identity in the future. I wish you the utmost success and fulfillment in your life, my future self.

To summit a mountain and spend the night with my boyfriend is my dream. While you read this message, I hope you already did that. Do you have any experience swimming in public body of water? Despite our fear, we want to give it a shot. It's acceptable if something isn't included yet or if it's something you're hesitant to try. I am aware that a lot has changed since then, and it's possible that you are now working on a project that truly fulfills your enthusiasm. Try singing nonetheless if your voice is still decent, ah. That's one of the talents we've used so don't ever let yourself grow old without even having recorded songs.

Self, I have a strong hunch that you are now living a peaceful life once you read this letter. For my last message, may you never get tired of helping others and may you never let people manipulate you. If there are any obstacles in life that you are currently facing, always follow your intuition and I hope you still end up being happy. Don't stop your dreams. Be strong and never lose faith in God. Even if you cry, remember the times when your life was more difficult, you had no allies and you almost wanted to die. But here you are, look at your face in the mirror. You are a very strong and empowered woman. So self, I have confidence in you. You can do it, Padayon.

Good Evening everyone! I hope I am not late for this entry. If you guys wanted to try sir @galenkp's writing suggestions, you may join his 130th concept here.

His writing ideas are actually excellent, and he is a great resource for writers like me who occasionally have writer's block and run out of ideas for quality content. And with that, I want to say how much I appreciate the admin's assistance with writing ideas. I would love to write more about the other suggestions if I wasn't a busy student. Maybe I'll just reserve the rest for upcoming blogs. Anyway, I've just written a letter to my future self since I think I could use some additional advice at this point in my life.
