Letter to me
Music and writing go together for me. I love lyrics that move me and motivate me. Being a Brad Paisely fan, I hear his song "Letter to me" often and I think, what would I want my younger self to know? Write yourself a letter as if you could send it back in time with the knowledge you have now and tell your youthful self what you needed to hear. Take it any direction you want and have fun with it! But remember to be kind to yourself. We all have an inner child that is still relying on it!

To me

You will believe everything is amazing, but to be honest theirs gonna be rough time many rough times but whatever you do you have to get through it. Theirs gonna be people you wanna date but before you do know them longer get to know them become friends first. They will lie to you, they'll tell you they love you in reality, their toxic. Stay away from this guy who's gonna be your stepdad. Tell mom the truth before she marries him. Your gonna begin to like the same gender, don't listen to the comments people say because theirs nothing wrong with loving someone. You will wanna disappear, but remember your loved. Tell Chuck you love him and give him the biggest hug. No matter what remind him you care and love him. You will be bullied for years but instead of letting them hurt at you laugh and walk away. People will act like your a disease but remember to continue to treat them with kindness. Your dad will be in and out of your life don't let it get you down he's selfish he isn't gonna change, just let him go. Your brothers are gonna be annoying and crazy just be annoying back. Warn the boys theirs gonna be a kid named Clay make sure they never hang out, he will get you into a-lot of trouble. Love every person with your whole heart. Your gonna be taken advantage of hurt so many times. You only see the good in people not the bad instead of looking at the bad times the good always jut pops up. Don't give people the time of day if they don't care if they hurt you. You are an amazing person, your beautiful, and perfect don't ever forget that. Always dress Gothic though. Instead of thinking about girls or boys focus on your grades your future is more important. If someone messes up once ditch them. Your smart even if you say some dumb things, we all have our flaws and instead of focusing on them, your flaws are who you are. People will stare and say thing but just smile at them and wave. Don't draw in the tiny red bible that you didn't know was one. Never listen to country music it's boring. Remember you don't have to not eat to be beautiful you already are. Don't say no i'm not when people compliment on you, it will help your self-esteem. Don't let some 40 year old destroy you, your not worthless, your not a monster or sociopath. Your past does not define who you are. Like I said things are gonna be rough their will be days you can't shower or get out of bed do it anyways hang out with people instead of being in your room. You got this, their might be bumps but theirs always some light in the darkness. Love yourself

Love,

future you
