Dear 17 year old Lex!

                  Dear Alexis,             

It’s okay. Take a deep breath and know this: everything you’re feeling and carrying will all make sense one day. Life may feel heavy now, but your strength is far greater than you realize. I’m writing to remind you—it is possible. Your dreams are possible.

To all the women living because you have to, pushing forward out of responsibility: this is your reminder that your dreams are valid. They may not come to life today, or tomorrow, but they will come in time. Keep believing. Keep going. God has a plan greater than anything you can see right now.

One day, you’ll see that every moment—even the hard ones—shaped you into something beautiful. Your dream will have a name, a purpose, and a life beyond your imagination. For Alexis, it became Alexis Peace. For you, it will be uniquely yours.

Remember, the journey takes time, but you’ve had the power all along. Keep faith, keep dreaming, and keep loving yourself through it all.

With love and belief,
A Voice from the Future
