Wednesday, Sept. 9: Write a letter to sixteen-year-old you. Any advice or funny stories?
Instead of writing to sixteen-year-old me, I want to write to sixty-year-old me. That way, I can come back to this page sometime in the future and read it.

Dear My Fabulous Older Self,
Congratulations! You have made it to the big 6-0! Hopefully we still have tonnes more years in us but now it is time to kick back (if everything has been checked off the bucket list) and relax. First off, I want to say that whatever you have done in life, I (21 year old Yulee) am so proud of you. I know that you have put your heart and soul into it and for that, I love you very much.
Being 21 must seem like a lifetime ago now but I am sure you still look as young, do not worry! I am sorry for all of the wrinkles you must have from me smiling too much but I could not help it and you know that. Right now, life is up in air after graduating and I have no idea where I am going to land but I am sure that whatever life threw at you, you conquered it head on. I hope that you still remember the teen and early twenties years and smile. There are some truly amazing memories there so please keep them close to your heart and never forget them.
I am sure that the last 40 years have not been the easiest but I know that you can always come out on the sunny side of it all. Thank you for getting us through adult-hood and I know that you probably have some other people to thank, so thank them for me! Now, I know that I am better at maths than writing so I will end this letter here. I can not wait to meet you when I am older and hear all about our life.
Lots of Love, Your Fabulous Younger Self ♥
