A letter from October 3rd, 2020

Dear Me, don't get hung up on your birthday this year, it won't be fun for anyone. Just accept you're having fun with your friends, go out shoping still, go out for dinner (if you can) and just be happy you're alive. It's nearly Halloween, you're doing okay. You're not going to have a big party, if you're going away, then you really don't have anything to be sad about. Just cheer up. I know you're upset right now, you always are over your birthday. but just be happy! I'll be happy once I've done this certain thing. We all say this often, not realizing what it brings. We look only to the future for our happiness, Letting life slip through our fingers in its fullness. Happy birthday mate, just think about him, what would he want? He wouldn't want you to be sad. Just be happy.
