Dearest Teenage Self,
I wrote this particularly for you. I wanted to thank you for those days when you are rebellious and full of hatred. Those days when you can't see the good things in this world.
I thank you for being bitter all your days. That despite of the efforts of those people who cared for you, you still pushed them away. You didn't know how much you ignited the desire of the One to save you from being wretched.
Thank you for smiling in front of your enemies despite the pain you have and the desire to torture them right there. Thank you for pretending that you're okay.
Thank you for breaking down. If not for you, I wouldn't know him. I wouldn't realize what love truly is. I wouldn't know how he loves me. I wouldn't understand why I have to suffer just to know him more.
I shall forget you, and make new memories. Memories that can make me truly smile. And see the world in a colorful ways.
~O~O~O~
"This is what the LORD says— he who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters,
who drew out the chariots and horses, the army and reinforcements together, and they lay there, never to rise again, extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:
"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland.
The wild animals honor me, the jackals and the owls, because I provide water in the desert and streams in the wasteland, to give drink to my people, my chosen,
the people I formed for myself that they may proclaim my praise."
Psalm 43:16-21
