• Letter from a former self

    Old me would have a lot of judgement and criticism for current me to handle. Current me would have to sit her down and help her understand how things unfolded. She’d probably fall off her chair. I imagined old me sending a letter to current me and then turning up at the door.

    Letter from a Former Self
    Good morning, it’s been a minute.
    I hope you are aware,
    Those ideas you had were fine like china teacups-

    What was that? Sit a minute? Sure. Maybe we can have a little tea;

    Do you remember the time Mrs. Wright gifted us an entire set, with the blue flowers around the rim?

    Do you still like teacups like that?

    What color did we finally paint our kitchen?

    Do you still like handmade toys and long walks with ice cream cones at the end?

    Did we stay the course or bail on the grumpy hubby? Of course we stayed. How many prayers did it take? I can see something finally worked, you look content. So he must have stopped with the shoving and choking and all that.

    What devotionals do we like lately?

    How many languages do we speak these days?

    Did the kids go to college?

    Style score 100%

    • Ruth, I also feel like my old self would need some explanation in order to understand the path we have taken in life. But really, who ends up living their lives the way they picture them when they are young? I know my life has turned out differently from what I imagined, but I am okay with that. Thank you for sharing your experience!
