Dear Past Self,
I thank God everyday for having had you. You may not have
been everything I wanted, but I still love you. You taught me lessons I will
pass to my Future Self. You were my warrior. You conquered battles so my Future
self would be better. You took shots for all of us. I can never thank you
enough. I thank God for letting me have you. You were my opportunity to learn. Because
you shed those tears, my Future Self won’t have to shed them again. Because you
made those mistakes, my future self won’t have to make them again. You were
hated so my Future Self will be loved. You were disrespected, so my Future Self
will be respected.
I know I didn’t love you enough, I am sorry. I know I abused
and didn’t appreciate you, I am sorry. I have erased certain painful memories we had
together, I hope you understand why I had to do that. I have altered aspects of
our lives together; I hope you know why I had to do that. I do not hate you,
but I have to leave you behind for my Future Self to live life to the full. I’ll
have to let go all the wrong friends you made from bad choices. I’ll have to
sever relationships that took much from me and gave me less. I have to discards
habits that did us no good. I need to reinvent myself.
Yes, I am shutting the door on my past, but am not totally wiping
you out of my life. I’ll be keeping the fighter in you. I’m not letting go
perseverance. I’ll always remember the beginning so I remain thankful and
humble. I’m taking lessons from your failures and draw backs. I have no regrets, just lessons and experience. It is time to
move on, but I can’t take you with me. You belong in my past and I don’t live
there anymore. Good bye
Sincerely,
Your Present Self.
