Dear 15 year old me,
Man are you in for a ride.
And I don’t mean one of those smooth sailing, dreamy boat rides that you find in Disney. I’m talking Six Flags Goliath, being suspended in the air with no choice but to stick it out.
That’s probably not what you want to hear, but preparation is key.
Let’s start with the good: You win homecom…

Dear Younger Me,
I know you’re in a point of your life right now where things are very tense and scary. A man you thought was a good one entered your life and you were so kind to him just to see what a monster he truly was a few years later. I know you’re tired of it. I know you clench your fists in anger every time you hear him yell out at you…

To my younger self,
Do you remember playing that game of Snake on the desktop computer when you were a child? You press those arrow keys wildly to guide the cursor around the grid, snapping up eggs, but each time you do, your tail grows a little longer. The rules are simple: keep moving, and don’t run into your own tail. If you do, you d…

Dear Gonzalo,
I never thought that I would be able to talk to you. but I’m glad that I have been given the chance. There are so many things I’d love to talk about.
