An Open Letter to Dear Future

Hello dear Future, how are your doing? I hope you are doing amazing and I might procrastinate you for some time, that you will be happy or you will be sad knowing about my present and my plans for my own future, but I can ensure that you will always be there with me, like you will be a fully grown man and my guide, friend and mentor to reach my destination holding my hand. Now, I do have some suggestions for you hope you take it as just some good advice.

I don’t know whether you are running after your dreams or doing your 9 to 5 job in some private or government firm. Very soon, I will become your past with the complexities of life, but in the hustle of your life, stop for a while, fall in love, go on a solo trip where no one could interrupt, be kind, don’t be rude, stop getting angry. I hope you aren’t shy anymore, smile at your life for a while and some other things I won’t be writing here.

And do create your own bucket list and this is your another start don’t forget to make yourself proud, I hope people will recognise you now, there are so many things in my mind I don’t know how to put into words, so stop sulking that I won’t be giving you a proper welcome. I wish you the best and I sincerely hope that all my or your wishes are granted by the universe.

Hope I imagine you as an aspiring writer, even though you are quite distant, I often think of you. I am waiting for that memorable day when all your wishes will be accomplished. however you never change yourself for anyone, life will put you with many difficulties, you will be judged, demoralise, at some stage taken for granted. I guess it is just another phase of life.

And also I hope you will not forget this past me, your childhood, your adolescence and this adult life I’m living, hope you will also have fond memories of me. I’m mesmerising, will you still be an over-thinker? I hope you would have become more extroverted now, at least you will have learnt ways to interact with people.

Moreover, if we can enjoy happy moments, then we must live with the hard times, This is your life, and you are the creator of your fortune. There are hence many things I have reserved for you, I desire you to remember your past, whoever supported you, whoever mocked you down, whoever was there in your difficult time, The present you in future will still be the past me.

Of course I hope to meet you soon, I will be waiting for a new updated version of you, Don’t forget to write back to me. Who you really are down there- who we are, deep below the surface. You're never gonna escape her. You're never gonna get away with being happy, because my mother nature is always gonna come back to bite you where it hurts most. The monster in your mind will not leave her home. We can't really evict her because we are the temporary tenants of Mother Nature here and she is the owner of the place called Earth.

I know dear Future, that we humans have been out to destroy our own Mother Nature for years and decades of misbehaviour with her resources like water, greenery, cool weather, regular cycles of rain, snow, hot weather and spring time as well. From time to time, you're going to get hurt. Sometimes even by those you love the most. And from time to time, you're gonna collapse and wish you weren't the egg in the ovary that was chosen to be fertilised. From time to time, you're gonna wish you're not you.

You're gonna wish you're not, us. And although that never will stop happening, and although the amount of tears you're going to shed dwelling on the person that you are is overwhelming, I want you to remember something about Mother Nature because it is you who is going to save her from further destruction, by advising my successors and our next generations to behave properly and be conscious of our existence and convince them that it is essential to maintain the balance of flora and fauna, the animal kingdom, the bird kingdom, the water species kingdom because all of them are needed to survive and grow in their own way in your interest only. Cheers!
