Girl’s letter to her future self, written months before she passed away

What most teenagers dream of is to go to college, travel the world, and have many friends. 12-year-old Taylor Smith, of Johnson City, Tennessee, was no different. This girl spent her days around her family and friends and loved watching a lot of Doctor Who. 

Smith outlined these plans in a letter she wrote to her future self in April 2013. The letter was placed inside a box in her room with the instruction “To be opened by Taylor Smith on April 12, 2023 only (unless said otherwise).”

Unfortunately, she didn’t live long enough to see whether those dreams would be accomplished. Just months after she wrote that letter, Taylor died of complications from a sudden onset of pneumonia.

Her parents, Tim and Mary Ellen Smith, were heartbroken. They couldn’t believe their girl was forever gone.

One day, as they were sorting through her possessions, they found the letter. As it touched them deeply, they decided to share it online and give others some solace.

As she shared her daughter’s letter, Marry Ellen wrote: “I can’t physically resurrect her, I can’t bring her back, but
I’m so grateful people have been inspired by her story.”

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 that we’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

Beautiful words from an angel who was taken away from her family too soon!

If you were touched by Taylor’s words as much as we were, please share this story in her memory.

BEN AFFLECK & JENNIFER GARNER’S NEW PHOTOS LEAK AMID J.LO’S DIVORCE DRAMA – HERE’S THE SCOOP

Before they ended their relationship, broke off their engagement, and fell out of love, they were one of the most famous couples in the entertainment industry in the early 2000s.

In 2021, “Bennifer” got back together, making fans around the world very happy. But despite hopes for a happy ending, things didn’t work out as planned.

Recently, there were rumors that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck were having problems. This week, Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck. It’s worth noting that August 20 was the second anniversary of their surprise Las Vegas wedding.

Of course, there’s been a lot of buzz about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s decision to get a divorce. Almost every magazine and website covering celebrities is trying to find out how Ben and JLo are doing.

Meanwhile, Ben was seen getting off a plane with his ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, and their child, Fin. He didn’t seem upset at all on the day Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce.

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were seen taking a flight to Los Angeles after dropping off their daughter Violet at her college in Connecticut. All eyes were on Ben as he got off the plane, and fans were quick to share their thoughts on his demeanor.

One user on Instagram commented, “He seems relieved \  go Ben! ],” while another said, “He looks ecstatic. He rarely smiles like that, wow.” A third user remarked, “He’s celebrating.”

Even though this was likely just a family outing for Violet, the fact that Ben was seen with his ex-wife on the same day Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce made headlines.

Some people online were thrilled to see Ben with Garner and even speculated about the possibility of them rekindling their romance.

“He’s smiling again! He should stay with his family forever. \\\,” a fan wrote on Facebook.

Another admirer commented, “He’s always happy around @jennifer.garner . I hope they get back together because not every divorce ends badly. They were together for years and have kids.”

A third person said, “He knows where his true love is and where he feels safe and loved! Family is the most important thing.”

One online user suggested, “Garner might be dating someone just to cover up her relationship with Ben, which is why his other relationships don’t last .” This implies that Ben and Jennifer Garner might be getting closer again.

Reports also say that Garner celebrated her 52nd birthday with Affleck on August 15, just five days before the divorce news, at the rental house in Brentwood, California, where he currently lives.

It’s important to remember that any rumors suggesting Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are more than just co-parents are just that—rumors. They should be taken lightly.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez, who has canceled her planned North American tour for this year, is rumored to have filed for divorce without a lawyer, suggesting she wants to handle it herself.

TMZ reports that there was no prenuptial agreement between JLo and Ben, as shown in the divorce filings.
