This is a letter I wrote to myself on May 18, 2012

author:Wen Jing WU

Dear Wen Jing Hello,

After 10 years, you have reached menopause, but please do not be discouraged, know that life is really cruel, as every woman will take this road, will grow old, will become a grandmother or grandmother, 10 years is not a short time. I hope that by then you will still be as peaceful as you are now, and you don't care about anything.

In 10 years, you may look in the mirror, examine yourself with your conscience, stretch out your right hand to touch your face, full of wrinkles, so that you lament the loss of youth.

After 10 years you gradually learn to forget. You dedicate a notebook to the people you hate. When I opened it again, the names were still there, it's just that you forgot who they were. Sometimes, we tend to overestimate our ability to hate.

When you were young you liked to walk through the wind, and you said you flew in the wind and prayed with the wind. But this is the language of youth. I think you are watching in the wind now, watching over happiness. 10 years ago you said you liked the scene of long hair fluttering in the wind, and now you still love it deeply because you have long been accustomed to growing old in the wind.

I don't know if you're still chasing your perfect character like you were 10 years ago. You judge yourself extrovert or introvert in what others say about you. Or you still dig with your wise eyes all the self-righteous or unattainable philosophical theories that correspond to you—the infinity and the pole. You wander between the two.

You have said that you can become a philosopher and examine people with your own unique ideas; you have said that you can become an orator, you can collide two opposing theories with each other; you have said that you can become a writer and express the passions of your heart in beautiful words, but these have become dreams.

This shuttle of 10 years, the road is very far. I hope the postman will help deliver this letter to you. However, the postman also has to follow the old man for 10 years.

Dear Wen jing, I sincerely hope that after 10 years, you will no longer be poor and destitute, although life is capricious, but everyone's wishes are beautiful, please do not see life too thoroughly, confused, maybe you will feel happy. People must be content in order to be happy.

Know that 10 years later, your eldest daughter is 31 years old, she may have a successful career, or she has already started a family. 10 years later, your youngest daughter is 18 years old, it is the key moment of the college entrance examination, she may be admitted to a very good university, or as good as the eldest daughter, admitted to the world's top universities. You will be proud of these two daughters. You will feel that they are the greatest asset of your life.

Dear Wenjing, your life has passed 4 10 years, you have to cherish every 10 years after you, do you know how your 4 10 years came? Your first 10 years were not enough to eat, not warm to wear, three years without new clothes, still infirm, you had to walk several kilometers to school every day, and after school you had to herd cattle, mow grass, cut firewood, and the days were very hard, but it was because of these painful days that you exercised. You later became a tenacious woman.

Your 2nd 10 years, on the road to slow study, you walked very smoothly, the poverty of your family did not make you flinch, but made you stronger and braver, and you became the earliest south drifter, fighting in a new city.

You began to fall in love, have children, start a business, transform from a young girl to a young woman, from a migrant worker to a businessman, in the mall, living a deceitful life every day. There are twists and turns on the emotional road.

Your third 10 years, you struggle in the mall, work hard, because the starting point is low, there is no background, your road is more difficult than others, but your bravery, your freedom, your tolerance, your integrity, let you slowly stand on the mall, but you did attract the eyes of many villains, resulting in being framed, being deceived, you experienced too much suffering.

In your 4th 10th year, you lost both parents, and your life was like a rising tide, the tide rising and falling, and you fell to the bottom again. Although life is very hard, but you have a little daughter, every day you have to work hard in addition to three meals a day, you have to take care of this child. It's bland, but the mindset is good. The wind and waves will not affect your mood anymore.

Dear Wenjing, 10 years later, will you still receive my letter? If you receive it, please write me back. Tell me, how far is the road ahead, or, full of hope and happiness?

Today after 10 you have entered a difficult situation, you yearn for a good life every day, don't live so hard, I hope that after 10 to open this diary, there will be different feelings, rather than the current heavy heart.

Dear Wenjing, after 10 years, you must be happy!!!
