LETTER TO MYSELF

Dear future self,

Time sure flies fast and you are in your middle age now. I wrote this letter to you when I was still 21 years old. Don’t you miss me? Our world now is in chaos with Corona Virus and I bet your world might be better than mine now. There are lot of things you want to achieve such as travel the world, have a job, stable life, and support your parents and marriage. All of this dreams needed you to work hard on it so you can achieve it later on in your life. As you are raised in Christian family, do not forget to pray and bring all of your concerns and dreams into your prayer. As for what achievements you want to get, I bet you always wanted to have a stable job in your age so you can survive in this world. In your middle age, you are probably married and have children of your own. You will have a house and car.

I wanted to be a wife to someone and a mother to my future kids. I wanted to be a counselor at the same time. I hope I will be able to manage my responsibilities wisely. I wanted to have a healthy body and mind in my middle age. As for my future children, I do not want to be a strict mother. I rather am a mother that embraces them when they feel down and understand them the most. Academic is really important nowadays. I will try to not put pressure unto my children but I will guide them so they will not fall apart in their studies.
