From Me to Me

Young Daniel,

Depending on when you read this, you may be in a dark place

In fact its almost guaranteed

I remember

You should know that nothing changes

You don't win the lottery

The mothership doesn't touch down

The world doesn't end

You should know that nothing changes

Other than you

There are so many songs you have yet to hear

That will make you feel like a child again

Who refuses to put down his favorite toy

There are so many stories you have yet to write

That will cause you to confront yourself

Understand yourself

There are so many people you have yet to love

And that will love you

One in particular

Tell her that you love her even though you're not sure

You do, and she does too, and its very important that you

Don't waste time

There's so much more, but I have so little time.

We both do,

Daniel
