Dear Self, 

        By now, you should be comfortable with life. You should be happy,  well established, secure, and still evolving. Although I am sure you are all of those things, I'd hate for you to be content and completely satisfied. My aim for you is to continue to learn, experience, and strive to become a better you. You should be well traveled and have a broader perspective on different ways of life; seeing the world is essential and your travel experiences should help cultivate and frame the person you are. You should be proud of the person you have become, in the most modest manner. I hope that your genuine, gentle, and quiet spirit is still in place. I hope that you have not allowed anything or anyone to directly cause you to question your ability, knowledge, or beliefs in such a way that makes you feel inferior. You should be in complete control of your life and creating as you go. 

                                                                                                       Love, 

                                                                                                       Sterling 

In the future I see myself as being the best I can possibly be. Although I am unable to tell the future or even lay it out completely, I would like to be on the right track. I would like to be confident and settled within my career and important life choices. I've been extremely vague because I am still unsure about where exactly I would like to see myself in the future. I feel as though I am still figuring many things out and learning more and more about myself each day, especially since I've been in college. 

I've written my letter so that it would apply to any point in my life if I ever choose to alter my path. In order to get to the point I have written about, I am planning to continue to shape myself as a human being in the midst of influence and adversity I experience everyday.
