Dear my loved ones,
By the time you see this I will be long gone. I am now in space among the stars and I'm sorry but I'm never coming back. I can't bear to think about the future of this world. I can't bear the thought of animals being a myth. Having glaciers gone or the world so intoxicated with plastic that our oceans are toxic, having to check the air quality rather than the weather. A future like this scares me, it rattles my core. I can't bear to think that anyone would have to live in a world like this. I'm sorry but my fear of our world's future seems so unprecedented and scary. I dont think im strong enough to face the future of our world. I'm sorry that I can't stay with you but I really really had to go.
Now you must be wondering where I went or how I got to space. Well I have been planning my leave for months and since your reading this i must have finally been able to leave. I was given the chance to join a team of astronauts who I'll be living with for the rest of my life.
Even though I know that I'll still be with you, you might not see it but know that I'm watching over you and I'll be with you during the happy, the sad and everything in between. I know you must not be happy with my choices but you would have never been able to understand the dread and fear I have of the earth's future. Please don't ever think like I did. Live your life and enjoy every second. And please forget me. I don't want the memory of me ruining your lives so please forget me. It will save you a lot of trouble.
Know that I did this to be happy. Know that I'll never forget you and I will keep you in my heart forever.
Love you forever
Emmy
