You Open The Door And It's You

By Evan Sanders


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

Uhmm Hello? Who is there?

"It's you?"

What?

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

What is this some type of joke?!

"Answer the damn door. "

::door opens::

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

Make yourself comfortable.

"Look I don't have much time here because I should run but I wanted to talk to you very fast. Well, to be completely honest, I just wanted to turn up and surprise you. You know, start a fun relationship here? "

Who...who are you?

"I'm you... I thought I told you this already. "

This can't be real. This can't be real.

"Hah! It's my man. It is. I am you."

...

"Alright I am going to explain. I am you behind all of those fears, worries and doubts. I am the version of you...just the better version of you...the one that runs a bit faster than you ... on the treadmill, lifts harder, focuses more, and reads more than the...you...right now. I mean essentially I am awesome. I am the you...you've always wanted to be. "

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

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

I see...

"I just wanted to make an appearance and show up and remind you about what you are aiming at. I can not really make it clear when this version of you will show up again, but hey...I think I might make a fun habit of seeing this dumb look on your face. Anyways, I really wanted to show you the true you...the one that's not fearful of making decisions and standing by them irrespective of everything else. That little blog you started, well you are not really meant to really know this now, but it is absolutely crushing it. Oh and do not worry 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 really even mean it. "

So...

"Got to go! Things to do. Places to be. Good luck!."

::door opens and then slams shut::

::sits down on couch...::

Woah.
