How will the letter be? What will yout tell your self?
As the TS, here's how my letter goes...
Dear Labe,
This younger labe is really scared at the thought of seeing how the future (older) labe will be living her life 10 years from now, oh gosh…
I remember when we were a little younger we thought of creating and living a calm and peaceful life. To find true love and be loved in return, raise a family, live in a log cabin (by the beach), have our own library, read books, paint, drown our souls with music- an idea of life so simple indeed. We even thought of becoming a teacher to those little tykes. All these are so simple yet just lately it made us realize of one painful and honest truth- that life is actually complicated. Whatever happened to our dreams? Did we just throw them away into nothingness? Or have we just kept them some place? Have we totally forgotten about them?
I’m really not sure where you will be and what kind of life you will be leading when you read this letter, labe. We are just so unsure of ourselves. We have found love and have seen the joys that life has offered yet something happened along the way. It made us felt that something, a piece has just been missing. Yet when we found it, it was not ours to keep. Should we let go? Or keep it a little more time ‘till it fades? Or should we just let the winds carry our dreams and our hearts’ desire to the gods and the universe so they’ll be in tune with the yearnings of our hearts. We are just so scared and so confused now.
Dearest, there’s is nothing I can tell you now except that we have lived our lives at each passing moment. And we prayed hard that whatever and whoever comes our way will find meaning in having us in their lives as well. We have been blessed with the wonderful joys now and we have been thankful. But with the love that have come our way, we have cherished them as well. Love yourself and see yourself worthy of the love from them. A woman’s worth is not measured by how many she has had loved in her lifetime but how, when she showed her love, others have seen their worth in themselves and made them love themselves a little more.
So wherever and whoever you are with right now, I am telling you that you have lived your life the way you wanted it to be.Your passion for love has taken cared of you.
I wish you well, my older Labe. It will still be us together, let’s live the unpainted life and whatever lies ahead.
Your once younger self,
Young Labe
If you were to write a letter to your future self 10 or 15 years from now...
