Dear Future

Dear Future,

I used to be so scared of what you'll look like. I get anxious few weeks to my birthday because a new age always drives me closer to you. I was scared I was growing without progressing, aging with so little achievements. Mentally, I felt way behind those awaiting their successful future but physically, I'm approaching you faster than them. What terrible irony!.

You're a fair judge. You grant good success to those who genuinely work for it and failure to those who don't. You reveal the consequence of what we engaged in while awaiting your arrival, give hope to those that suffer and labour for a good future, and anxiety to those who ignore you while enjoying the brief moment before you arrive. 

I don't want to be a failure when you eventually arrive! I've left my comfort zone, dropped bad habits and I've surrounded myself with beautiful people, people who add tremendous value to my life. I've invested in myself in various areas and I'm intentional about my growth. Each new day is an opportunity for me to get better by at least 40%, my goal for this whole week is a 100%!.

How confident of me to aim for a full 100% because I'm still a little bit scared of You. I still have a few shortcomings and setbacks. My mission to get a better future has yielded little results yet, since you're still away, only you can reveal the results. But there's progress! I won't give up no matter what, I can't fail.

I hope someone gets gingered up and strive harder. If you have nothing to strive for, this new week is another challenge so, get started.

Cheers to a glorious Future!❤
