Dear future me,
Don't worry. All things will happen if they are meant to be. Stop comparing the past to the present. You left it behind for a reason, so go forward confidently into the future you are developing right now.
Keep smiling. Those small worries and concerns will be forgotten in a year's time. Be thankful for those small blessings that grace your life each day. Even when it seems things are falling apart, it takes the destruction of all the old to build up to new.
Tell the people in your life that you love them. It doesn't matter how many people are in your life, love the ones you have. Be grateful. They are placed in your atmosphere and seek out the knowledge and truths you are meant to learn from them ; even it's only to learn not to like them.
Invest in moments and memories not in things. It's not wrong to have a nice house, a nice car or a nice cloth as long as it's the memories made in that house and trips taken in that car and where you went with these love that you hold most dear.
Above all, strive to be just yourself. Find out who you really are and be that person. Never stand on someone's ground to be who they are - build your own hill to stand on and look around at the roots you have sown to be who you are.
Love yourself now. Not for who you should be in ten years or ten punds lighter. Not for the better job Or better place you will be someday. Love you for whom you are now, in each and every moment. And live with no regrets. Choices are yours.
