My Dear Younger Self,

Hey sweetheart! Look at me!Dry your and listen to me.

When I look into your eyes, I see myself.
I know you feel overwhelmed right now and curse the day you were born but listen carefully.

I’m writing this letter to let you know that I’m proud of you. I’m proud of how far you’ll come to be where I am now. It may seem hard or impossible but look at me—we’ve made it.

Forgive me dear younger me, for believing the hurtful words of those who said you were worthless.
• "You are worthy of love and affection."

I’m sorry for letting your classmates' bullying make you think you were ugly or dumb.
• "You're more than childhood bullies—you’re a star that will shine in the darkest nights."

I’m so sorry for listening to the dark thoughts that told you that you should never have...
