Letter to Myself

I want to tell you to believe in yourself. I want you to realize that you are worth so much more than you seem to realize at times. I can’t wait to see what all you have ahead of you, but you need to not give up on yourself.

Each day you amaze me with how strong you are. When you were younger you thought that you were never going to be good enough, and that you weren’t good enough. I love that you have gotten stronger. You are my hero. You have grown so much as a person and I am loving every moment of it. Remember to keep your head up. You deserve so much! Never forget that!

Sometimes I wonder why you can’t seem to keep a positive attitude. I hate that you get down on yourself. I undersstand it completely, but I wish that you could take each day and let whatever happens happen and keep going even when you feel like giving up.

I know that sometimes it is hard to be alone. I know that you want a husband more than almost anything else in the world, but remember that this time is for you to grow as a person. You are so much stronger than you even realize. Each day that you go without finding the man of your dreams you are learning the meaning of independence. I know you feel alone sometimes, but you will be ok. I promise that you will get through this and that you will be able to find someone who will make you happy.

There has to be a man out there who is intelligent, cultured, funny and sexy. He’s just waiting for the right time. The time will come when you are completely ready for the man of your dreams, and he is completely ready for you. I know that the waiting part sucks, but you are going to make it through this. You are going to meet him and you are going to be so happy that it never worked out with anyone else.
What I need from you right now, is that you stop settling. You let yourself be with these guys who are no good for you. You let yourself get used up and broken, and you deserve so much more than that. STOP! You are more than you are letting yourself be and I am tired of it.

Life is never easy Jess, but you can make it through all of this if you just keep your head up and keep pressing on. You are so amazing and anyone that knows you would tell you the same thing. Stop being less. Stop giving up. Never stop pressing forward!

You are going to do great things. I can’t wait to see all that you have in store. There has to be something amazing ahead because life is never as hard as it seems. Don’t give up on your dreams. Life is just getting good.
