You Open The Door... And It's You

You Open The Door... And It's You

By Evan Sanders


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

Hi? Who is there?

"It's you?"

What?

"It's you... kindly 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 admire the place! Tiny but I am keen on it. "

Make yourself comfortable.

"Look I haven't got much time here because I have to run but I wanted to chat to you for a minute. Well, to be honest, I just wanted to show up and surprise you. You know, start a fun relationship here? "

Who...who are you?

"I am you... I know I told you this already. "

This isn't real. This absolutely can't be real.

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

...

"Alright I will explain. I'm you behind all of those fears, procrastination, and doubts. I am the version of you...just the better version of you...the one that runs faster than you currently on the treadmill, lifts harder, focuses more, and reads more than the...you...right now. I mean fundamentally I am absolutely 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 must be like version 6.0. I mean look at you. "

I see...

"I just wanted to make an appearance and show up and take a second to remind you of what you are working towards. I can not really let you know when you may show up again, but hey...I think I might make a fun habit of seeing this dumb look on your face. Anyhow, I needed to show you the true you...the one that isn't afraid of making calls and standing by them regardless. That little blog you started, well you actually aren't meant to really letting you know this right now, but...it is doing so well. Oh and do not fret about girls, just keep your head down for some time and everything will work itself out. Oh...last thing, don't take the bad things people say personally. Most of the time they do not even mean it. "

So...

"Got to go! Things worth doing. Places to be. Good luck!."

::door opens and then slams shut::

::sits down on couch...::

Woah.
