A letter to my Future Self!

When you were 10, you wanted to play with expensive toys,
But you made books your best friend.
When you were 11, you wanted to join dance class,
But learned on your own as you could't afford it.
When you were 12, you wanted to go to fantasy parks,
But you played on streets and found happiness.
When you were 13, you saw terrible things,
But you believed you can change it when you grow up.
When you were 14, you wanted a badminton kit,
But you played till State level with a normal racket.
When you were 15, many distractions came by,
You resisted them all and topped in School.
When you were 17, you wanted to take up only Badminton,
You understood your responsibility and studied instead.
When in Engineering, you wanted to go out party,
Instead you did part time jobs to afford your books.
When you had heartbreaks and you just wanted to go off track,
You chose to cry yourself to sleep and shine bright during day.

Smaller or bigger dreams, You have achieved everything
Without harming or walking over somebody else.
Even when some people around were cruel to you,
You have helped the needy and you have been kind.
With all this, Your family has always supported you 
And Nurtured you to be a good human being.

I write this to you to so that you remember your roots and the choices you have made in your life. Do not let anyone else define you or defame you. People who badmouth about you without knowing your life are only showcasing their character and not yours. Stay humble and Be Kind because that is what differentiates you from all those who try to bully or harass you!
