A Letter from the Future
Una carta del futuro
One warm summer evening, Maria found a strange envelope on her balcony.
Una cálida noche de verano, María encontró un sobre extraño en su balcón.
The envelope was made of shiny paper, and in golden letters it said: “Open only for you.”
El sobre estaba hecho de papel brillante y, en letras doradas, decía: «Abrir solo para ti».
Maria’s heart began to beat faster. She carefully tore the edge and took out a letter.
El corazón de María empezó a latir más rápido. Con cuidado rasgó el borde y sacó una carta.
The letter contained only a few lines: “I am you, from the future. Don’t be afraid to change your life. Today, start what you have been dreaming about.”
La carta contenía solo unas pocas líneas: «Soy tú, del futuro. No tengas miedo de cambiar tu vida. Hoy empieza lo que has soñado».
Maria sat for a long time, looking at these words. She had always wanted to open her own jewelry workshop but was afraid.
María se quedó mucho tiempo mirando esas palabras. Siempre había querido abrir su propio taller de joyería, pero tenía miedo.
The next day, she bought tools and materials.
Al día siguiente, compró herramientas y materiales.
A month later, she had her first customers, and a year later, her works were sold in other countries.
Un mes después, tenía sus primeros clientes, y un año más tarde, sus obras se vendían en otros países.
The letter from the future remained on her desk—as a reminder that anything is possible.
La carta del futuro permaneció en su escritorio, como un recordatorio de que todo es posible.
Moral: Sometimes the push for change can come from where you least expect it.
Moraleja: A veces el impulso para cambiar puede venir de donde menos lo esperas.
