Dear Self,
You will make mistakes in life. Know that
and understand it is inevitable. What you need to learn is to stop making the
same mistakes. Plain and simple. As well. Try to be honest to yourself. Take
the direction in life you want to take without worrying about others. You will
be happy that way. Love the uncomplicated. Be only a friend with the
complicated because they need that. Don’t mix those two. Dream realistically.
Leave the far fetched for the fantasies that will fill your days and nights when
boredom or loneliness kick the door down and shake you from the tree that you
rocked in as a child. Boy. Man.
Be true to yourself and hold back the truth
when you feel it will hurt. But do not hold the truth back when it isn’t being
true to yourself. If it haunts you for more than a day its time to tell the
truth. Karma is a bitch but sometimes deserving. That to which we desire will
never be easy. If it is we lose interest. The challenge or chase is not there
and that is our nature to want. The hunt. Yeats said never give all the heart.
Don’t. Not until that is all you have left to give. And that will rarely happen. When it is
failing. Don’t. When its time, you will know. The chase will be done and the
answer will give you the right time.
Time is funny. We give it to others and
take ours as well. We invest it. We blow it. People even say we waste it. We
don’t. All time is important to us. Even the time the carries us from one event
to another. Never give up time. Investing in it will usually give you a reward
beyond anything we can imagine. It just takes some length sometimes for it to
payout. Patience is needed so give it. Rewards a plenty.
So self. Learn from this. Take these words
as a lesson that you need to learn in order to survive. It may take time for
all of this to make sense and all of it to have meaning. But it will. No quick
answers. Patience. Valour. Good luck.
Self
