PING PIYAYA: DEAR FUTURE

I wonder, what would be my life in the future?
Would I achieve the success I strive for
or would I be a failure
like what my they had told me before?

I want to know if in the future,
do I still expect myself to do everything in perfection
or would I accept my imperfection and live a life
without high expectations just like what I hoped for?

Dear future, I want to ask,
has any of my super idealistic goals been met,
or had I given them up and
followed the advice my friends had said.

And my parents, my brother, my family, how are they?
Do they still live well or have
they left me one-by-one just like
what I feared for even before.

Future, I am scared of what might happen to me.
Dear Future, I fear what might happen to me.
In your hands, in your timeline
what kind of woman have I turned out to be? 

But God gave me His support,
he shared my troubles and whispered to me,
Child, don't worry, I'd guide you on your journey.
So here I am, praying, may He bless my life's journey.
