Dear Myself,
Make the right choices, even if it’s hard. Be who you want to be. Stop caring so much what other people think, because in the end, it’s your opinion that matters most. Keep in mind that perfection is just a state of mind, so trying to be perfect for everyone and anyone is impossible. If they really care about you, they won’t keep criticizing you, telling you what you are doing wrong and who you should be, and just let you be happy. They would stop complaining to you and talk to you instead. If they cared, they would just allow you to be happy with who you are. You know your own view is on yourself, don’t let people ruin that. You know what’s thats like already. you know what happened last time. Don’t do it again. Most of all believe in yourself and stop being so scared of everything. No is going to anything because you are loved by so many people, and to those who do something, they are the ones that are scared. They don’t matter anyways. Be your self. Believe it, know it, live it. Be you, not who they want you to be. Remember that. All the stuff that people say about you, the names they call you, even though it circles around in your head every day, don’t listen to it. Don’t believe it, you know the truth. You know who you are. You know who you want to be later on, what things you need to fix, that doesn’t mean you need people reminding of that every day, or coming up with new things. Don’t let them change you. When you see that you need to change something, you have the strength to do that. I know you think you aren’t the best, but learn that you are. You know it’ll take some time. You know it’s not going to be easy, but you also know you have the strength do that and that time heals most. You can do it. You know you can. Those other people are just jealous of you, they are trying to get to you, to get you to react. You know reacting doesn’t solve anything, and it just gets you and them mad, so just walk away, talk to your counselor, you know she can help. You also know that when you react, you are giving them what they want, and if you are mad at them, why would you give them what they want? Also, when you react, your giving the power of you to them. Like saying “Here, have the power over me.” Like a voodoo doll of yourself. Those anger problems, the depression problems, the anxiety that they say you have… Prove. Them. Wrong. Prove them all wrong that say that. You don’t need the depression pills or the counseling. You can ignore them. Close your eyes, count to ten, walk away. Remember what your grandfather told your mother? “If it’s not going to matter two weeks from now, forget it and ignore it.” Keep your head up no matter what happens.
Forever and Always,
Me.
