A letter from May 09, 2023

Time Travelled — almost 1 year

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, Hi, it's late 7th grade you. You're about to be a high schooler. How does it feel to almost be an old kid? How does it feel to still be single? ;( Do you still have trust issues? How's it going with paranoia? I know we aren't depressed or have a mental illness, but getting older is one of our phobias so I know it's not fun. Are you doing ok? Romance is a thought topic, i know but we need to talk about it. I'm really daydreaming that rn you have a lover, or maybe used to. If you get a break up (which I hope we don't) I cheer you on ig. Are you getting better at figuring out your feelings? I know you hate physical touch, but o how we crave it. Got your first kiss yet? Also, i know you're ***. Stop being in denial. 😒 This is not just a letter. It's a reminder of how weird, strange and scary but beautiful life is. I know we're going through an existential crisis and it's ok. It's ok to be sad and mad. It's ok not to want to do things and it's ok to feel overwhelmed. 1 rule. Just be. Love, you 1 year ago (P.S. tell me your favorite thing and you can vent if you want. Make the comparison list with the 6 month and new letter)
