Greetings to
, thank you for this contest to give me the opportunity to point out some improvements being made in our lives. This is my entry to this honored contest.
Our past is sometimes there to give testimonies of who we are today and who we are about to be in the future. Our past sometimes shows us how weak and strong we were when we lived in it. I don't blame people when they try to use our bad moments in the past to mock us when they see improvement in our present lives. Besides, we have some people in our lives who never wish well for us and others too wish well for us. Remember, when we are tired in life, we are attacked by incidents in the past we conquered long ago. This brought up the idea to write a letter to my past(Young John)
Hello Young John,
I hope you still doing great with your poor self. I know you're worried about why I wrote this letter to you. Well, life is full of surprises as we all know. Truth to be told you never expected a letter from me. I know you miss me but don't worry I'm doing well. I hope this little introduction has made a point of what entails in this letter of mine. Okay in order not waste your time, Young John
First of all, I would want to let you know that I've built upon my confidence level. You always knew I was weak, shy, insecure, meek about myself. I never stood up to fight for myself and conquer my fears. I felt helpless back then being you(Young John), but I didn't lose hope because I knew I would be a better person someday to conquer those insecure, weak, shy, meek nature of mine. Building confidence in my present self has helped me a lot to make an improvement in my life. All thanks to Young John for letting me know one of my weaknesses.
Secondly, I would like to let you know that I have learned to teamwork with people. You never let me get associated with people because you made me feel like I was okay with myself so I needed no one to reach out to. The Young John I knew never thought of approaching someone to seek help from others all because he never saw any mistakes in himself. But that was wrong. You Know Young John, I presently know that seeking help from people and working hand in hand with people build us to know more about life. I now know teamwork with people strengthens your ability to do more and achieve more. You were always selfish. You never shared thoughts with people. Such bad behavior Young John. By the way, you've let me know selfishness was a bad behavior you never told me.
Thirdly, I'm now a hardworking person. A personality I always desired to have in me because you never made me make an attempt to work. You always made me lazy you didn't let me know what life had for me and because I was getting things easily in my life, I never thought to start life myself. I now know nobody lives life for you. The days I was been fed by someone would one day be no more. You would have to start working on your own to achieve what you want. And achieving what you want pays with hard work. The little effort I invested in my life has yielded me a lot so much more today that when I work more hard in the future I will earn more. Young John I believe now you know you did me no good than harm for letting me be lazy. Hard work has paid a good price for me so I would say thank you for helping me work on my lazy character.
Last but not the least, Young John you know I had the passion to help people out whenever they needed help from me but with your sense of ignorance and hatred you never let me help people because I was not helped when I needed help. Thanks to my present, it has shown me the joy and happiness you get when you help people out. The present has taught me that I don't know when or where my help will come from someday to come in the future. But it has been a blessing in my life helping people now. At least the little help I offer to people causes positive changes in their lives. If you're unhappy hearing this I'm sorry that's the truth.
Lastly, do you remember I always lost hope because anything I started to do never worked for me? I always complained about why those incidents were happening to me. But you never told me not to lose hope and gather courage. You always made me feel there was no hope and nothing good about me. But now my present life is better because I ignored your bad motives and taught myself how to be courageous and never lose hope because no situation is permanent. Well, all thanks to you, without your experiences I wouldn't have known much about life and how to motivate myself in my present and future life to come.
Well, Young John, I think and hope this message says goodbye to you. stay with your negative energy and thanks for letting me learn from those mistakes you've made me correct in my present life.
Yours Sincerely,
Present John
