Dear Daughter,
I know you are very disappointed right now, you had been hoping for this for a while, practicing, working, and preparing, but then, unplanned distractions got in the way. You succumbed to stress, worry and anxiety. Because of that, things didn’t go the way you planned them.
You can handle this one of two ways, you can pout forever, be bitter, and never grow, or, you can take this as a lesson. The lesson being sometimes things happen in life that get in the way of our plans, but no matter, God has great things in store for us despite the circumstances may not be what we had hoped for. I’m not going to tell you, “There is next year”. You know that, and even though it is true, telling you will only add insult to injury.
You are 13, you have so much life ahead of you. Do not let this one disappointment, or this whole summer full of them defeat you. You are strong, wise and feisty. Pick up the pieces and build something better!
Love, Mom
