Time Travelled — 12 months

A letter from August 26th, 2020

Dear FutureMe, Hey, guess I decided to send it to a sooner self, in 1 year and not 5 years... Then maybe I could be advised more often by a previous version of me. Sounds worth it ;) You obviously improved in English since this cool week in the South of Dublin haha, good point! You indeed went through dark places man. Like everyone does all the time actually (you have to stay aware of th...

A letter from August 25th, 2018

Dear future teacher self, You became a teacher because of every teacher that helped you succeed, the ones that took the time to help you when they knew you were having a hard time concentrating. You became a teacher to be that person for a child like yourself, a child that looks forward to school everyday to escape the chaos of their home life. To have an adult who doesn’t yell at them, that...

A letter from August 23rd, 2011

Dear FutureMe, Greetings from the year 2011! I was just reading Twilight and The Da Vinci Code (still haven't got an e-reader!) while listening to Lady Gaga and The Black Eyed Peas, and watching Mad Men, House MD, Modern Family, and President Obama on my 37-inch LCD television. I enjoyed watching Avatar 1 and the last Harry Potter movie in 3-D (much better than waiting for them to come out o...

A letter from April 19th, 2014

Hello future me, I just got a letter from myself two years ago, and it was really funny. I was in Spain at the time, curious about what I was doing (and guessed TFA correctly -- haha), and just wanted to make sure futureme was happy. I wasn't even 21 yet and now I'm almost 23. That's frightening. Right now, life is at one of the lowest points I've ever felt. It's funny, because I know by ...

A letter from August 22nd, 2018

Dear FutureMe, Let's divide this into 4 goals: love, family, career, health. Love: I know you are crazy about her right now. You've stopped talking to other girls, hoping for an eventual reunion with her. Your heart will come to terms with what your head had: she was the right person at the wrong time. Both of you will choose career over each other anyday. You are about to leave Asia, bu...

A letter from August 21st, 2017

Dear FutureMe, I'm your 22. I don't know what will you be doing while you are reading this letter. I have a lot of plans for you now. Master, travelling, marriage etc. I study as far as in me lies for these. I hope you won have completed master successfully. Because it's my dream. And hopefully you will have been travelling all around the world. You shouldn't stay at one point. It doesn't...

Epilogue

A letter from August 21st, 2018

Dear FutureMe, Whatever path you've chosen, I support it. I hope by this time, you aren't beating yourself up over every little thing. I hope you are now happy with yourself. I hope you've learnt to enjoy the little things. Maybe not every aspect of your life is how you'd hoped it would be. But that's okay. As long as you're happy. Hopefully you have good, true friends at this point. Friends t...

A letter from August 19th, 2012

Dear Christina, I went to the doctor last Thursday 8/16/12 and he said that within 8 to 10 years I will be considered legally blind. The funny thing is, I don't really feel anything. I don't feel any different knowing that my field of vision is going to be cut in half in 10 years. I already lost my peripheral vision, so thinking about losing more of my vision is just something I can't compre...

Epilogue

A letter from June 28th, 2016

Dear FutureMe, I picked a date at random, but at least a few years in the future, so you might not remember writing this. Whatever is going on, whatever you've done, or haven't done, or are trying to do- whatever has happened to you, to those you love, to those who loved you- however you feel, please don't forget that you are a good and decent human being and you are worthy of love. Pleas...
