A letter from February 19th, 2021

 Dear FutureMe,

These are your current wishes in the future: 

• be able to feel great about leaving your current company by the end of this year so that you can go to France and be with Aurelien. Get married and hopefully settle there (aka get the Long Stay Visa). 
• be able to accept that you need a sabbatical break to do all this moving and marriage and settlement to a new country. 
• be able to learn French and get a work-from-home job in France. 
• be able to visit my family once a year in the Philippines. And maybe slowly find a plan on how to retire in the Philippines because you want to set up a business.
• be able to travel still (COVID really hindered all of us from travelling for more than a year now). 
• be able to live with intent all the time and move past the "go, go, go" routine you have formed when living in a big city.

These are the things you wish... I hope that you are doing fine today as you are reading this. You are fine no matter what problem you are facing. You are amazing at what you do and you will be amazing at what you will become. Always remember to be kind and think before speaking. 

Keep your chin up, 
Debie
