Message to my Future Self

For the one I care

Hi Clarice! It’s nice to be your present. Gorgeous and marvelous –words that definitely fit your identity.  As your mirror of the present, it’s my privilege to guide you. As you walk on your path, keep in touch with God. Don’t neglect the blessings he showered on you. Defray it by being a candle that lights on someone’s life. Let love and peace prevail in your heart as you trace your future. Remember that you’re the most beautiful creation of God that is worth finding for.

I have something to confess on you my future. I’m sorry for what I have been now. You will observed that I became slim and had lose my weight since I started my college.  I’m praying that 10 years from now you will change me and be stouter and possess a good body stature. I hope that after 2 or 3 months I can adjust on my college. There are things that I want you to do to be a better Clarice Batangoso in the future. You must study hard and gather not only knowledge but also wisdom and memories that you can used when you were a teacher in the future. Set your goals and put your concentration on it. Also focused on your priorities, don’t be too haste in many things because everything must be on time and based on God’s will. Distraction may not only affect yourself and future but also your family’s dream. As a citizen of this society and a future teacher someday, be productive and generous. You will be a weapon of this country against ignorance and poverty so make a good job. Clarice, be promised that you will try your best to lessen the problems of our generation, you’re a future teacher so we are expecting that change will start on your hand.  I believe that you will not waste the time and opportunity.

Let me share to you this. Back to my childhood years, I accidentally fallen in the bicycle.  I cried loudly as my mother get me on the street. She said, “If you fall and get wounded, don’t be afraid to be wounded again”. My dear future it’s a big indicator that you must love and care yourself .Be optimistic and don’t give up as problems hinder you on your way. Don’t be scared on changes. Change is the only word that is constant and doesn’t change so embrace it. Don’t make it as a weakness rather a strength. When problems strikes, don’t let stress kill and down you. Take a break and rest when you’re tired but never stop. When time comes that you really feel down and alone, face on the mirror and remember me; all the experience, heartaches, disappointment, sweat and sacrifice that I’ve gained and overcome in reaching what you are now, and think that it may suddenly fades and become worthless when you stop and give up. Remember one thought from Albert Einstein that “Life is like a bicycle, to keep your balance, you must keep moving”.
