Dear 18-Year-Old Horizon,
You can grow by opening up, and yes, you will be exposed and feel more hurt, but you can’t hold out forever.
Go on your mission. It will be exotic and amazing.
When you get back, stay in shape. Hiding behind your body to prevent temptation doesn’t work.
Live more. Love more. Don’t be so afraid.
Don’t buy the ring to will yourself into “the normal” path. It is humiliating to take it back.
The path of least resistance isn’t always the best path. You are not an electron.
Hang in there!
- Future Horizon
P.S.
Buy stock in Google. Lots of it. Now.

I liked this letter. It's short and to the point. Just a thought, but you might have included some hints regarding who won the past super bowls, then 18-yr-old you could go and make some real dough in Vegas.
