A letter from April 20th, 2018

Dear FutureMe, I hope as you read this letter that your circumstances have changed.

Dear FutureMe, I'm excited to tell you that I just finished my final exams which basically meant that I have finished my 2 year program.

Paige, Right now I'm sitting on a queen bed, white sheets covered in cat fur surrounded by half painted walls next to a fridge that has a tv balancing on top. There's a mixing bowl filled with the remains of chickpeas that I couldn't finish eating because it became to hard to scoop up with a tablespoon (all the other utensils were dirty) on the kitchen counter. My hair is soaking wet, brushed ...

A letter from April 19th, 2020

Dear FutureMe, I am just now realizing how afraid I am to grow. Fear is a physical, mental restraint that prevents me from taking action in my life. It has not served me but inhibited me. Today is April 19th, 2020 and there is only so much online entertainment before one is forced to reflect within themselves. I realize that when I look into the future a growing weight of anxiety tightens ...

A letter from the past

Dear FutureMe, You might think that you made a wrong choice, or that you shouldn't have done something. For a couple seconds, erase all of that negative thinking. Think of the good things of life. Don't worry that you will not succeed. I believe in you. Think about how grateful you are to have amazing friends, and an amazing family. Take deep breaths. Think positive, and don't give up. You are...
