Dear FutureMe, It will be your 22nd birthday in 10 days. I hope you finished college, and got married to that amazing boy of yours.

From Christian, Circa 2010

Dear Christian, It's as if I've only been shown one side of things, and for the most part, it's always been something scary. I use to feel "good" most of the time, but I was always doing and feeling things that were unproductive. I recognize my behavior, my bad habits so to speak, and I'm choosing to take to take control of myself, rather than let myself bounce off from bad idea to bad ide...

Happiness

You probably think that a man/woman is your only source of true happiness. But no, your wrong (Sadly). Happiness can't be found from only a person, it can be found from your favorite book, or maybe a song you just heard on the radio. That one that brings back so many good memories that it makes you cry. Or maybe that one that you have such a strong connection with, it makes you want to explode....

A letter from September 22nd, 2013

Dear Future Me, Were the AP classes worth it? Were they worth the stress? The feeling of being overwhelmed? The need to be the best? The struggle to keep the GPA? Does the 4.0 really count? Will I live my life thanking myself for staying up late doing homework? Will I be glad that I had to choose between good grades, enough sleep, or a social life? Or was this all just a waste of time?

A letter from September 23rd, 2014

Dear FutureMe, If you're reading these I sure fucking hope you're reading it from your apartment at medical school. You're going to be a great doctor some day. And if not, something big must have happened. Medicine means so much to you and if you have forgotten about that, please turn around because there's nothing you'd rather be doing. Unless you're near death or you won a year round tri...

A letter from September 23rd, 2015

Dear FutureMe, I don't think I have to tell you where I am in my life right now. What I do want to say is that I hope you have found happiness in yourself. If not; I hope you have at least learned how to deal with life's issues better. Have you made it to France yet? If not, start planning your trip. Let me be the one to remind you of where you hoped to be by now. Have you successfully la...
