Dear Future Me


Life is a whirlwind and it's only getting faster

My head is spinning so fast it feels like it might fall right off

I hope that you able to keep it on, make something out of us

I don't expect us to be in the history books but I hope we will make a 

differnece in others lives

But don't take yourself to seriously, it seems like the older people get the

less they care about others and the less fun they have

Take the time to enjoy the things you love, be kind to others, and do 

what makes you happy

Speak up and speak out for yourself and for others

Be the person we needed when we were younger and felt so alone

Be everything people told us we couldn't be 

Finally be yourself no matter the situation because we both know

we have spent much to long trying to be what we thought 

others wanted us to be
