A Letter To The Past: Still Standing

First I would like to appreciate @bdcommunity for always coming up with topics that we can have a bittersweet ride with it lol.
I can't say mine is bittersweet but let's just see how it goes.

A week ago we were writing to our future self and this week we are writing to our past.
When people talk about their past, I look at myself again and be like Do I even have a past?
Yes, I ponder about that many times because everyone seems to make it look like your past has to be something terrible or some mistakes you wish never to repeat themselves.

But then I look at my past and all I can see are memories that I can never erase or delete all in the name of its your past
My past might not have been a really smooth nor a sweet one and sometimes I just ask myself, do I have anything to tell someone about my past?
Yes I know I had minor challenges I faced as a young and evolving girl but I don't think I have ever done anything naughty or stupid to regret.

So to that little girl in my past, I write this letter to you.

Dear Little Waky
This time I had to use your name cause I love you so very much you know?
Looking back, we both know how stubborn and naughty you were. You don't take no for an answer even if it means hurting people to get what you wanted, you just didn't care any less.
I am sure that attitude has changed now, yes sure it has taken a different shape.

It's okay that you never had the freedom to explore like you wished, no chances of going to a boarding school and be hidden from your parents for some time, guess what? We are still stuck here at home😂

That dream of studying abroad? It never came true, maybe not yet but God works mysteriously.

The plans you had for mastering your piano after clocking 18years? My dear wake up, we are still far away from the result, we sure have a long way to go.
Yes, you are already a lady now but some of your dreams, wishes, and plans are still dormant but hey! Don't be sad, such is life. You had tried your very best now it's all in God's hands so let's just wait and see his plans for our life.

Dear little Waky, I am not here to tell you how life has been with me since I left you. The truth is, it hasn't been very easy but I thank God for you because whatever and however it is now with me, I am still proud of the little girl you were.

I am here to remind you how thankful I am that you didn't break down along the way.
I am here to tell you how proud I am of you and what you have become.

The only mistake you made is putting me through the pains of having to deal with toothaches because of your excess consumption of sweet and sweet things, I won't forgive you for that but hey, we both enjoy it didn't we? So we live to face the consequences.

And to you, I write because I am here and still standing. I am alive cause God kept me.
I am yet to fulfill all the things we planned together but please don't lose hope.
Believe in me as much as I believed in you back then.
Never count the wasted years because God has a better plan for us.
Yes, he is carefully handling our affairs.

Dear little Waky, I have a lot to say to you and to tell you how it is with me now but I am sure you know them all already.
Always remember that I loved you then, now, and forever.
I am proud of the girl you were and the girl you are now.

 From your older version
 Waky.
