A LETTER TO MY FUTURE CHILD(REN)

Hey guys! What’s up?!

So this week I’m doing something a little bit different. I actually saw this being done by Youtubers but of course their title is ‘A video for my future children’. But then I thought why not I do the same but instead of a video, I do a letter.

To be honest, I’m not very good at writing a letter; I’m more of a text message person. Anyway, I’ll think I give it a shot and we’ll see how it goes. Hopefully it goes well and not too sad or too serious or worse, too cheesy, that I’ll throw up on my laptop.

Anyway, here we go.

Dear kid/kids,

I am your father....

Wait. Suddenly I feel like Darth Vader, though that wasn’t exactly the words he said, but whatever.

I wonder if my child/children know who Darth Vader is. I hope they do.

Let’s begin again.

Dear kid/kids,

It’s your dad, age 25 years old. You can see my photo at the bottom of this post. Please don’t judge the way I look, if you are a judgemental person, which I hope you aren’t.

I don’t know what’s my age by the time you’re reading this but let’s hope I’m still alive and healthy. And for God sake, please tell me I’m not bald. Don’t you dare laugh at me if I do or go to your room right now.

Where is your mom? Is she reading this too? I hope she is and she’s also as healthy as I am.

To be honest, there are a lot of things I wanted to know.

I wonder how many of you. Stop me at anytime, 1? 2? 3? 4? 5? O.o

Okay, I’m gonna stop myself.

What’s your age? What gender? Are you nice or horrible like any other kids I know? I hope you’re nice or go to your room right now.

Mentioning that, I wonder what kind of father I am. Am I strict? I hope I’m strict but fair. J

Anyway kid/kids, as you can see, your dad has a blog. Yup, he was a blogger. I’m pretty sure your mom already knew it. She might even be the one who shows you this.

Honey, we’ll talk later.

You might not realize but I wrote ‘was a blogger’ because good God, I hope I’m not still writing a blog like this at the age of 40-ish. It’ll be depressing.

I wonder when your birthday is. Are you a Gemini like me? How do you look like? Are your characteristics more like me or your mom? If you’re more like me, then I should tell you that it’s okay to not have friends in school because not having friends doesn’t mean you’re lonely or a loser. It means you’re a survivor and independent. Just ignore what other people said.

Mentioning school, have you done your homework? If you haven’t, go to your room and finish it and then you continue reading this.

Relating to that, I wonder what class you’re in. What are your tests, exams, quizzes results are? If you have worked hard but you only got A- or B, it’s okay. You can do better next time. But make sure you have worked hard because if you’re not, then go to your room, you’re grounded.

I also wonder how technology is in the future. Do we finally have a flying car? Do we still need battery or charger?

Okay now I’m off the topic.

Alright, to end this letter, I just wanna say, though I don’t know you now but I’m sure you’re a great kid. And I have a few advises that I wanna share.
1)      It’s okay to be different than everyone else. As long as it’s not a bad thing or will lead to a bad thing morally or religiously. Just be yourself, don’t try to be someone you’re not because the person you are is the best you can be.
2)      If you have passion or dream, then you hold on to it and work as hard as you can to achieve it. You might be rejected or feel like it’s a waste of time but believe me it’s not. It’s worth it and you have no idea how happy you’ll be when you finally achieve it.

That’s all the advice I can give right now. I know I might have given you more advices throughout your life and I sure there’s more coming in the future. So I’m saving it for that.

And finally, even though I don’t know you at the time I’m writing this but I know I’ll love you, though I might not show it or not say it often but just know that I do.

Love Always,

Your dad


Okay guys, that’s all I got for this week. I hope you enjoy it.
