Letter from 2020 to future generation 🔮

Dear future generation (it sounded somewhat trite🤪, but whatever it was …) I hope you are doing well👍🏻 that you live in peace🕊 and tranquility and not lose yourself. Yes, you did not think and you read these lines correctly✅ “… and not lose yourself”. You think that my head is not all right. However, if you want to know what my words mean (and whether I am crazy or not😏) just keep reading these lines.⬇️

Little boy Alex loves ballroom dancing🩰. He is happy to do his favorite thing. Years passed. The boy is 16 years old and he is moving to high school 🥶. It would seem that a new life and new friends await him. Instead, he received ridicule😖, bullying😢 in his address. Alex was haunted by this. He begins to look for shortcomings in himself, trying to find out what is the reason that his new environment did not accept him. In an instant, everything becomes clear when he finds his photo on social networks😳, or rather a photo of a ballerina💃, but instead of her head, he finds his own head🤯. His favorite pastime separated him from his peers🌌.

His whole world is destroyed😶. He hates himself for who he is, he hates himself for his existence😡. Alex gives up his dream of becoming a great dancer and with it, he lost hope in everything. All for what? For the sake of pleasing others, for the sake of not being superfluous in this world.

You might say that he became a successful businessman👨‍💼, doctor👩‍⚕️, or something else. But … what’s the point if he’s lost his real self forever? What is the use if he does not live for himself, but adapts to others? This is not a life, but just a scene in the theater 🎭that continues for a lifetime♾. I also want to emphasize the fact that perhaps humanity has lost the greatest dancer of all times.

Dear, beloved people❤❤❤ do not lose yourself. Always be yourself, because you are the creators of history. Everything will depend on you.
