Dear 6-year-old Eric,

It’s crazy how I’m almost an adult now. I don’t know if you feel grateful for anything yet, but you should be grateful about your home situation. You have a great family, you come from a decently wealthy family, and you have many opportunities that are open to you. Since you’re only 6 years old, be sure to experience every part of life you can (not just video games) and live your life, especially the childhood, to the fullest. By the time you’re sixteen, a chapter of life will already be over. Though there will be some difficult situations, you and your skill set can do anything.

Sincerely, Eric
