Creating cards for our parents is one of the sweetest artwork that is being taught in the preparatory and early grades in elementary. Teachers commonly ask the students to produce a card with thoughtful messages and colorful designs. However, an amazing 12-year old girl wrote a very unique letter.
Taylor was diagnosed with pneumonia at a very young age. Her parents were so depressed about losing their daughter too soon, but they were able to cope up after some time. Because of that, they made a decision to check their princess’ stuff. To their surprise, they saw a letter written by Taylor, addressed to herself. It was written in April 13, 2013. The twist is, it should be opened after 10 years. However, the letter was very touching that made her parents cry a river.
“Dear Taylor,
How’s life? Life is pretty simple right now (10 years in your past). I know I’m late for you, but as I’m writing, this is early, so; congratulations on graduating high school! If you didn’t go back and keep trying. Get that degree! Are you (we) in college? If not, I understand. We do have pretty good reasoning, after all.
Don’t forget, it’s Allana’s 11th birthday today!
Sheesh , 11 already? In my time, she just turned 1! I didn’t get to go to that party though, because I was in Cranks, Kentucky for my first mission trip. I’ve only been back for 6 days!
Speaking of, how’s your relationship with GOD? Have you prayed, worshipped, read the bible, or gone to serve the lord recently? If not, get up and do so NOW! I don’t care what point in our life we’re in right now, do it! He was mocked, beaten, tortured, and crucified for you! A sinless man, who never did you or any other person any wrong
!
Now, have you gone on any more mission trips? Have you been out of the country yet? How about on a plane
?
Is Doctor Who still on the air? If not, what regeneration did they end it with? You should go watch some Doctor Who! Later though, you
gotta finish reading your own words of wisdom!
Do you have your own place yet? If we’re in college, what are we majoring in? Right now, I
wanna be a lawyer.
Have you been to Dollywood recently? Right now, their newest attraction is the Wild Eagle. It’s so fun
!
Also I think I’m going to sell my iPad and buy an iPad mini, Don’t forget to tell your kids thatwe’re older than the tablet! Attached I also have a drawing of an iPad, so you can show them.
Well, I think that’s all. But remember, it’s been 10 years since I wrote this. Stuff has happened, good and bad. That’s just how life works, and you have to go with it.
Sincerely, Taylor Smith”

It is important to seize every moment that we spend with our family. Life is quite unpredictable. A laugh today might turn into tears tomorrow. Taking every chance to make your loved ones happy is one of the things that many people forget. Sadly, we cannot turn back lost moments. 🙁
