“If only the past me could see just
how joyous, carefree, content and tranquil she would be in the future. How I
wish I could travel back in time to urge her to hold on, be patient, and stay
strong, to reassure her that life isn’t over, that every wound would heal and
every battle would be won, that there are so many beautiful things yet to be
experienced and so many blissful times to come, that there is so much good left
in the world, and that she would once again reclaim her spot as the happiest
person on the planet.”
