Future

I have never written a letter for my future self here before so I'm going to do it.

Dear future me,

I don't know what the future holds. But I hope you look back often with a smile and a laugh.

I hope when you look back, you think of me as a young child, yet to learn many things.

All I have going for me is blind optimism.

And I hope one day, we'll get to where we want to.

I hope we will be sitting tall, sipping our whiskey in our lovely dream apartment, surrounded by ikea furniture.

Or maybe my taste would have changed.

I don't know.

But I just hope I grow up to be the person that I want to be.

I hope when you look back, you can look me in the eye and smirk.

Smirk because only you know the challenges ahead but you know it will make you who you need to be.

Maybe I'm putting too much pressure on you.

And I'm sorry.

But I only want the best for myself just as you do.

And onwards to the future I go. I just hope it will be as good as I want it to be.
