Dearest Self,
I am writing to tell you that I am very proud of you. You are about to embark on a horrific journey of self exploration and thus far you seem very motivated and are maintaining a positive outlook. Bravo!
However, I want you to know that things are going to get so much more difficult before there is an ounce of hope that they will become easier. The challenges you will face are enormous and are meant to break your spirit. They will try to take you apart, piece by piece. But keep your head up and your eyes on the prize. Don’t let bad habits, peer pressure, or laziness get the best of you. Those bastards don’t know what you’re made of at all. They will come on strong and try to win you over with their charm. Trust me, I know they can be appealing. But do not fall for their garbage! You are better than that and they have no idea what you are capable of accomplishing. Show them who is truly in control now!
I know you have a fear of failure. But hey kid – who doesn’t? This is one of the few things you struggle with but luckily it’s entirely fixable. It’s okay to start taking baby steps in the right direction and work you’re way up to a full sprint. Totally fine. And it’s okay to be human and make mistakes along the way. It’s going to take some getting used to, no doubt. Define yourself and your goals. Don’t let this depression defeat you.
You deserve happiness and good health and you are capable of achieving both. Please know that I am with you through this trying and difficult time. It’s going to be one hell of a learning process but I’ve got your back 100% covered. You are a strong woman and I know you can do this.
Yours truly,
Sarah
Your letter to yourself is very positive. I like that. I wrote a letter to myself once and it was so mean.
I am pulling for you!
(Thanks for dropping by my site, by the way.)
