Letter To My Future Self

Hi, how are you doing? Are you still living in the past? Don't you know life’s hourglass is running out really fast? I know you were dealt a boatload of lemons and no lemonade. And many nights, you had nightmares and were scared and afraid. Sometimes you are still haunted by ghosts of yesterday. Do you still want to crawl into a hole every other day? Remember you may have gotten knocked down but not knocked out, So get up; be proud; you have nothing to be sad so about. Please remember what you overcame; your scars don't define you. Don't you know you're a victorious warrior tried and true? Don't forget I love you for the woman you are today and aspire to be, I'm forever in your corner; hold your high and walk-in victory.
