Letter

Two years ago I wrote myself a letter.

Inside of it I told myself to not give up.

To not give up on writing, something I

believed I was good at, which is rare.

Within those years, I stopped believing.

I stopped being creative.

I made no more time for it.

That's when I realize that's how it is to grow up.

You just start to lose that spark, that passion.

But reading that letter made me reach for a pen and paper.

Notes

I really suggest anyone to do this. Writing a letter and trap it in a bottle for a year or more. It'll make you remember good things from the past and maybe some good habits you have lost.
