I once heard a spiritualists by the name of "Kino Putiya"
say "People lack self-awareness and don't understand
how our decisions end up impacting our future self. They
fail to spot the patterns. That's why you see people in the
same shit over and over and still lost".

She spoke to me; she awakened a part of me that was
sleeping, and I didn't realize how much I was draining
myself by not self-reflecting and doing the work.

How do I expect my future to be what I dreamed of if I
hadn't been doing the work. Figuring out what I am
working on? What do I need to change? How do I change
it?

So, I wrote a letter to my future self in my journal after
self-reflecting and picking myself apart...

Dear' Future Me

I'm giving my all, I'm putting in the work, I'm setting up
a path of glory so my future can be just more than
average. You've been through hell and back to get to
where you are today, but I know the work doesn't stop
here. You'll continue down this path and you'll have the
future you've always dreamed of.
Some may think it's a fairytale or unrealistic, but what
they don't know is that what's for you, is for you. You take
and will take no breaks to get where you need to go.
You're dedicated, you're determined, you're becoming,
and you put in the work, though it wouldn't fall straight
into your hands it'll be at the end of each path you have
set for yourself.

The family you want, the love, the career, the
relationships, the accomplishments... it'll all be awaiting
for you. Knowing that it will is all the push you need.
Knowing that now you have a child is the extra push and
knowing that you actually have something to live for is the
ultimate push you need to become something so fierce in
your future.

You are a force to be reckoned with and a blessing. Your
future will speak for you. All of the hard work you do now
and later will pay off, it's what will give you that sensation
of life. No matter what happens, you just know that you
are the thunder, you set the bar and you make the noise.
You're super and nothing will take that away from you
unless you allow it to.

Before you were born you already had a path set, but now
that you're here you just have to keep on writing and
taking action. You have a long way to go, more blessings
to receive, and more rocks to climb, but never get
discouraged. There is always light at the end of
everything you do, always. Yesterday was yours; Today is
yours, and Tomorrow will be yours. Be patient and be
steady, it'll all come together and fall into place. The
future is yours.

- Your dearest's

When it's all said and done, I will win and restore life to
my own. I will give myself and my future the opportunity
to become great. In the end those who deserve it will win,
and they will give more than what life even has to offer.

"I wanted a perfect ending. Now
I've learned, the hard way, that.
some poems don't rhyme, and some.
stories don't have a clear
beginning, middle, and end. Life
is about not knowing, having to
change, taking the moment and
making the best of it, without
knowing what's going to happen.
next. Delicious Ambiguity."
- Gilda Radner

It's okay not to know your future but knowing that you
are on the right path and have taken the steps to do right in
your present life will and can take you to where you
NEED to be.

You don't know what life has in store for you. Don't give
up now, just keep doing the work no matter how hard the
days seem. Your work on yourself and in life will pay off.
The Universe rewards those who take positive initiative.
The Universe rewards those who are all aligned.
Everything you do HAS to be with the highest form of
vibration... LOVE. If not love, then what?

Don't be so quick to escape life, you have your whole life
ahead of you. Things won't be easy to obtain or
accomplish and that's okay, as long as you can say that
you work hard, and YOU did it.
