justprompts: Write a letter to yourself as a child.
Young Jack;
At what point, now, was I a child? It's an excellent question, really. Failing to remember the particulars... was there or were there not a sister involved somewhere? Failing to remember the particulars, I can hardly guess. You figure it out, get back to me. When you are me.
I suppose the thing to do would be lending some well-meant and meddlesome advice which you'll most likely ignore, thus ensuring the renewal and insurance that I'm me and writing this for you to ignore.
Don't be too careful. Trust as long as you can. Forgive as long as it's in you to do so. Then do it again.
Think big. No, bigger. Gold's just gold; treasure's more, as is a ship.
Freedom. Take it, keep it, but be mindful the cost. You'll figure the rest as you go along.
You'll get it all, lad. Everything you ever want. More. It takes time, fishing, patience. But it'll come, you'll see.
Take what you can,
Captain Jack Sparrow
