“Being tolerant does not mean that I share another one’s belief. But it does mean that I acknowledge another one’s right to believe, and obey, his own conscience.”
— Viktor Frankl

It's weird having a friend you once truly cared about but left on bad terms. Like I love you. I hate you. I wonder if you're well. I hope you're terrible. I miss you. I never want to see you again. I can't unfollow your social media. I need to block you. You haven't changed, and neither have I. We've both changed so much. I know you so well. Who are you?

Dear, you.
I don’t know how you did it, but I’m so proud of you!
Proud of what you’ve become and what you’ve accomplished. I always knew you can make it!
Despite all those things you went through, I never lost faith in you. You are stronger than you thought you were. I’m glad you listened to me.
Who would have thought you’ll come out of it better, bolder and stronger? You’re the version of me I’ve always envisioned even in my worst state.
I’m sorry that I put you through all of those mess out of my carelessness. Now we both know that putting our faith on other people doesn’t always do us good. So, I’m glad that you did run when I asked you to. That was the bravest thing you did; to walk out and walk away despite the heaviness in your heart. I know it was difficult and it took you all the courage you could muster to accept the fact that what you fought for was in vain but that’s the way things go.
Remember what author Eric Ludy said, “Many a young woman has spent nights crying over a broken heart–not from an ended relationship, but from the FALSE HOPE of a relationship that never began.”
You weren’t really sorry for the abrupt ending. You were only sorry that things didn’t go your way.
There will always be disappointments but the important thing is knowing how to deal with it, and that it’s not the end of it all.
I love that fought your way to get to where I am now.
Success is always sweeter when you’ve tasted the bitterness of struggles.
You’ll never be able to appreciate what you have now and what you will have unless you’ve gone through not having it.
Gratitude unlocks the magic. I’m glad you used it one too many times. You can never have too much gratitude in your heart. If it overflows, it blesses more people around you and you never get empty ever.
When you started to doubt yourself and God’s plans for you then, I was heartbroken. It’s painful to watch you tremble. I thought you’ll never get past it. But, you never let go; you never gave up. That’s my girl.
You strongly believed and still believe that there may be drought around you, but the abundance of rain is on it’s way. A storm cloud full of God’s blessings is about to pour.
Hold on to the people who give you wings. Those who laugh with you and your quirks, and silly mistakes but never judge you. Those who believe in you like I do. They were put in your life to make things easier and lovelier so don’t scare them away.
Remember to always put people over things.
It will take you quite a while before you will realize the difference between things that you should trash and keep. Man, it took you like forever to stop chasing what you thought was everything you ever wanted!
I can’t blame you for having a heart that never gets tired of giving second chances. You’re a good person.
Self-love should still be your top priority. Protect yourself from the people who hurt and will hurt you. That’s the most selfless gift you can give yourself.
You will never believe what great things await you!
With much love and faith in you,
Your Future Self❣
