Dear, young me
before you ask. No, we haven't met NH,
from one direction yet.
Yes. Yes, I know. It sucks. But I'm on it. Don't worry.
Well, anyway, we are 21 now.
I hope you will be proud of what we've accomplished.
We went to university abroad and yes,
I know that you always wanted to be an interior designer,
but it didn't quite work out that way. Sorry.
We still do some creative stuff though. And it's a lot of fun
not pursuing your childhood dreams.
Doesn't mean that you're not going to find new ones. You know,
we don't have much contact with our old friends, but it's fine.
Believe me, we've had lots of luck when it comes to meeting good people.
Well, I mean, not always, but at least we learn from our mistakes.
Each person we've met on our way shaped. We are now so we don't hate them.
Oh, and we don't hate our body anymore.
That's quite a change, isn't it?
We don't really care that our hands occurred and we
even show ourselves on camera and talk to people.
Would you believe that? Yes, on the camera?
Remember when you were 14 and joined drama club at school.
But then when you watch the video from your first play,
you hated the way your arms look like so much that you left the drama club.
Yeah. Another best times am I right?
But look at us now,
we love ourselves and we hope to show other
people that they can love themselves as well.
I'm not proud of everything you've done. I'm not gonna lie.
You've had your moments,
but it's cool.
We don't regret anything because we learn from everything we do good or bad.
There are a few other things that I'm super proud of you about and
it's more important you always try to fight for whatever you believed was right?
And I think you never follow anyone and let anyone tell you what you should believe.
I know you don't think you're cool but you are
even when people tell you you're too much or not enough, you're still yourself.
And I like that about you
and I try to remember about it every day so that we don't pretend we're someone else,
especially now in times when you can be influenced so easily,
you wouldn't even notice be who you are because
if you change our future would change too.
And I quite like who you are now.
Thanks for always being there for me.
Love
Allah.
