"Dear Future Self; I'm Sorry I Never Grew Up Enough to Pay More Attention to You."

Dear Future Self, I'm sorry I never grew up enough to pay more attention to you and less to present self. I'm sorry you're struggling and everyone's above you because of the choices I've made and am making. I'm sorry I broke my promise to you, and didn't take advantage of every opportunity to learn, to rise, to improve, and to help myself... I'm sorry that even at this moment, instead of investing time and energy in you, I'm still lingering in the present. I'm sorry... But beyond that, I promise I'll never be sorry for that same reason again.
