Hey Afua,

This is future Afua here with some amazing news. First of all, your shape eventually comes into style. You’ve spent most of your teenage years wondering when you’d finally get some body and attract the boys but I’m here to share an interesting plot twist; your body stays the same while what the world thinks looks good changes. The boys come and now you’re so tired of them, you’re trying to return them back to sender. Who could have predicted that!

The rest of it is quite boring actually.

Stay curious and interested in the world. You’ll leave home soon to explore new lands and learn new languages but you’ll eventually find your way back with an even better heart than before.

Stick close to the people that help you feel seen. Learn how to communicate and work through challenges. Your crew will stay small but they will always have your back.

Keep running your mouth. To every single teacher that tells you that you talk too much, tell them thank you.

Lastly, remain hopeful. Life is great. You are blessed. God is faithful.

Afua Osei
