Dear Future or Younger Self

You are not who you were yesterdayYou're not even who you are right now is what I sayJust live in the the moment because here is where you should stay. This life is temporary So stop all the worries, it's unnecessaryYou can't change the past, why would you want to?It made you better cause you learned what not to do. You're not meant to always get things rightYou're gonna mess up, today, tomorrow, and maybe tonightThat doesn't make you a bad person, I'm just tryna give you some insightLife is about obstacles, struggles, and putting up a fight. Everyone isn't perfect and neither are youIt's not a bad thing, it's just true.Being yourself is all you ever knewSo why change now, you're tryna impress who? Just love yourself and others will do the sameGive them something to respect other than your name.What you feel shouldn't cause you to be ashamedBut wanting to be like others is so lame. Being like them, causes you to followWhich is a promise that's hollowBecause no one knows where they're goingand causing your life to be drastically slowing. All I'm saying is love who god made you to beHe isn't disappointed in what he sees.He sent people to help you here on earthSo just appreciate the life he gave you from your very birth.
