Dear Mayte:


I opened the letter earlier, I forgot that I didn't do one for my birthday, which was a weird mistake, anyway, you are an amazing writer, and you are so right in so many things you said in that letter that I don't even know where to being.
It's true, a lot has happened in this past year, you've been having amazing opportunities and you've showed people that your work is just as good as anyone else, you haven't been carrying any of your parents names, just yours and it's been feeling really good.
You've opened your heart a lot more to new people, you've let wrong people in but quickly turned before everything went downhill, you are still scared of what might happen if you hurt again, but you are not as scared anymore. Remember to keep your friends and your loved ones close to you, they are the ones that give you strength and confidence to keep moving forward and sometimes they need you too, so stop and listen to them.
Your life seems to be getting more and more crazy every day that goes by, you have to remember that doesn't matter how much you have going on, you will always have time for a break, the world won't come crumbling down if you disappear for 2 hours or a day.
One thing you've been lacking a lot has been adventure, I know you miss those days where you could do whatever you wanted and don't worry about anything that may happen, you have a lot more responsibilities now, but that doesn't mean that you can't have fun from time to time, remember to go out and be spontaneous every once in awhile.
Trust in your talents, sometimes you can be good at somethings, yet you are scared of not being good enough, don't be, the more you do it, the better you are going to be at it, come out of your comfort zone and do it, what's the worst thing that could happen? If it doesn't go right, laugh, but don't punish yourself.
Now that you know what you are capable off, it's time to keep going, don't let anyone stop you, don't let anyone tell you that you are not good enough, because you are, and if you aren't, you can learn and keep trying, it's time to make something big on your own, remember how big your dreams are and how much you want to accomplish them.
Remember to keep on dreaming.
Mayte.
