Dear future me,

I hope that the future is better than the present. I hope that we all learn to coexist and love one another. I hope we can learn to look past our differences and just let each other live the best life we can. I hope we allow ourselves to let go of our fears and just do what makes us happy. I hope that there isn’t as much suffering in the world. I hope that you yourself have learned to be happy and let go of everything that has been holding you back. I hope that the people who are in your life right now are the same ones I refuse to let go. I hope that you have finally decided to following your dreams. I hope you’re good. I hope that there are still polar bears, elephants, tigers, sharks and everything in between and that our children or grandchildren don’t have to learn about them the way we learned about mammoths or dinosaurs. I hope that every type of flower still exists because I know how much you love flowers. I hope that you can still look up at the sky when you go back home and see it full of stars, you always loved that. I hope that we learned to love this world the way it loves us.

Dear Amara and Uma,

Maybe you heard about bats? Bats, the carriers of this disease that spread among us like wild fire. I love bats. When I was your age today, sitting in the evening on the back terrace of your grandparent’s home in Ibiza, hundreds of bats would play, dance and sing among the trees.
 

Dear Tomorrow,

And, if this summer has taught me anything, I am content (because I have to be) living in this limbo, this seemingly endless waiting for the opportunity to change, when really the opportunity exists within our very selves all along.
