My Younger Self

 I met my younger self for a coffee in my imagination this morning.


She was there before me- always excited about meeting new people
And I was right on time, having learned that patience is not in my list anymore.

She ordered iced coffee and I did the same observing how our taste hasn't changed.

She wore a skinny jeans and a sweat shirt, while I wore mom jeans with a white top.
We were both short haired- some things never change.

She told me how stressed she's about her studies and I told her I have graduated university.

We talked about our families and she tells me how much she loves her mother, I tell her how much I missed mine.

She asked about my bestfriends and I tell her our friends have the same name but she hadn't heard some of their names yet.

She told me about how much obsessed she is with the mountains but who's gonna convince her about how excited i am to move beyond oceans.

She told me that she wanted to study law but I said her dreams might fade away as God always has other plans.

She told me she feels ugly and insecure in her body but I said our body is the most interesting thing to talk about.

She said she's excited about being adult and have a family one day, I told her am still learning how to love so I can have someday too.

10 years down the line, i can't wait to have different conversation and stories with my younger self:)
