TIMELINE: Nomzamo Mbatha's year in pics

Johannesburg – The gorgeous Nomzamo Mbatha turned 26 on Wednesday 13 July, and in celebration the actress wrote a short letter to herself on Instagram.

The note was dedicated to two different stages in her life – 25-year-old Nomzamo, and 26-year-old Nomzamo.

To her younger self Nomzamo wrote about her trepidation to let go. "I don’t want to let you go, but I have to. Thank you for being the most wonderful year of my life. When I was 16 I spoke of you and the joys I wanted you to bring fruition. And darling, you superceded my expectations. (sic)"

Her message to her 26-year-old self was dedicated to healing, peace, resilience and wealth. "You have big shoes to fill. I am becoming a woman of the world," she wrote.

??Dear 25, I don't want to let you go, but I have to. Thank you for being the most wonderful year of my life. When I was 16 I spoke of you and the joys I wanted you to bring to fruition. And darling, you superceded my expectations. You came to me broken in most ways, but what a beautiful and splendid mess you make. Thank you for teaching me how to love myself, flaws and all. I will always remember you as the piece to this puzzle that made the picture a little bit clearer. Dear 26, You have big shoes to fill. I'm becoming a woman of the world. As I welcome you in my hotel room in the city of Rome today, all alone and away from my loved ones, I can already tell that you will bring healing, peace, resilience and so much wealth. Handle me with care darling. Let's have a kick ass ride. I'm ready for you! ??
