Dear Past Self,

Things that don’t go as planned are beautiful

You can stray off the path

Don’t stress about the future

Or the past

Focus on the present

For that is where you are

Never let anyone get you down

 

You are amazing and powerful

Don’t listen to the naysayers

Cause they don’t know who you are

You can do what you dream even if it is hard

Don’t give up even if it feels impossible

You are imperfect but that's ok

Never let anyone change you from who you are

 

Accept who you are

It's a difficult task

Once you do it however you shall feel powerful

Just like the hero's you love

The going will be tough

There will be a lot of turns

But it will all be worth it and there is a lot to learn

 

Don’t stress and be who you are

Don’t become tight lipped fearing to hurt

You express truth and never sugar

Those who can’t accept that

Can’t accept you

You are perfect in your own way

Many will love you for who you are today
