DEAR PAST ME<br />
BY ELENA HARRIS<br />
The future can be scary, the unknown<br />
can be scary for anyone, but you<br />
have nothing to fear. Throughout the<br />
next couple of years, you will face<br />
times when you feel worthless and<br />
even unmotivated however with this<br />
time you’ll eventually start to reflect<br />
and realise that life can be exciting,<br />
if you let it.<br />
As you start to go through life you<br />
may lose friendships but will gain<br />
better and stronger ones. This is<br />
where you should take my advice:<br />
don’t be easily influenced by other<br />
people’s words, learn to be<br />
yourself and enjoy the things you<br />
want to enjoy, this way you’ll be able<br />
to let go of the past. Never let anyone<br />
define who you are, as only YOU can<br />
define that; once you can accept this,<br />
life may become more enjoyable.<br />
When going through college, you’ll<br />
feel stressed and want to give up,<br />
but don’t. Make the bold decision<br />
of working hard and it’ll pay off in<br />
the end and you will feel happy and<br />
relieved that you did.<br />
Future You<br />
