You Open The Door And It's You

By Evan Sanders


One night right before I was going to bed, I heard a knock.

Hello? Who is there?

"It's you?"

What?

"It's you... open the door it's cold out here."

Is this some sort of joke?!

"Answer the damn door. "

::door opens::

"Whatsup dude? Long time no see. I like the place! Small but I'm keen on it. "

Make yourself at home.

"Look I really don't have much time here because I should run but I wanted to talk with you for a minute. Well, to be truthful, I just wanted to suddenly show up and surprise you. You know, start a fun relationship here? "

Who...who are you?

"I am... you... I believe that I told you this already. "

This is not real. This absolutely can't be real.

"It is my man. It is. I am you."

...

"Alright I will explain. I am you behind all of the fears, procrastination, and doubts. I am the version of you...just the better version of you...the one that runs quicker than you currently on the treadmill, lifts harder, focuses more, and reads more than the...you...right now. I mean fundamentally I am incredible. I am the you...you've always deeply wanted to be. "

So you mean to tell me...you are me...but like version 2.0?

"Lets not kid ourselves here, this has to be like version 6.0. I mean look at you. "

I see...

"I just wanted to turn up and remind you of what you are working hard at. I can't actually let you know when you'll show up again, but hey...I think I'd make a fun habit of seeing this dumb look on your face. Anyways, I needed to show you the genuine you...the one that isn't fearful of making decisions and standing by them regardless. That blog you started, well you aren't really meant to truly hear about this right now, nonetheless it is crushing. Oh and really do not fret about girls, just keep your head down for a bit and everything will work itself out. Oh...last thing, don't take the bad things people say personally. A great deal of the time they don't even mean it. "

So...

"Got to go! Things I have to accomplish. Places to be. Good luck!."

::door opens and then slams shut::

::sits down on couch...::

Woah.
