“MY UNBORN CHILD”

How are you?

Will we get a chance to meet one day?

I want you to know that you will have so many gifts to offer to the world. 

You will be a shining light in this world.

But, I needed to do the work on myself before I could have you.

I wanted to make sure you would have an amazing father in your life. One who would be there for you in your life and show you all of his love.

Because you are worthy of all that love.

And I needed to make sure I knew how to love you, how to guide you, so you could realize your gifts and share them with the world.

But, I don't know if it is too late to have you.

See, I am older now and not as young as I was.

It took me a good twenty years to discover that I am worthy of love, that I love myself and I have gifts to share with the world.

I don't want it to take so long for you.

And your father, well, I know who I want him to be. I loved him so much. And yet, I pushed him away. Maybe because I needed to do the work on myself.

And he and I have been separated for more than ten years now.

But yet, we still keep in touch up until this day.

And I only hope that he will let me love him again, like I once did.

And only then, will I possibly be able to give you life.

So that we may all meet.
