To My Future Self
A poem
I always ask myself:
Where would I be in 20, 30 or even 40 years?
What would I look like?
What would I have accomplished?
I want to look at myself and say well done;
I want to look back and see change;
I want to look back and see growth.
I don’t want to look back with regret:
Saying what if;
Saying why;
Saying how come.
I want to look back with joy;
I want to look back with love;
I want to look back with gratitude.
Because I didn’t give up;
Because I learned a lot along the way;
Because of my wonderful support system.
I also prayed and trusted God, now:
I want to keep moving forward with hope;
I want to keep moving forward with ambition;
I want to keep moving forward with reason.
I want to be more loving;
I want to be more forgiving;
I want to be better and wiser.
So, what are you hoping to tell your future self?
