A letter from November 12th, 2015

Dear FutureMe, Time flies right? Would you believe it has been years? I know you like to guess and imagine how the life will look like in xy years, and if you will ever achieve goals you set for yourself. Well this time, lets talk about the past and appreciate it. Listen to where you came from, what journey you took and where it led you. You are now 25, and I know you feel really old m...

A letter from November 12th, 2019

Dear FutureMe, You're 18 while writing this and you're confused. You know what you want, but you're afraid to get it. You're now a legal adult, but you can't help but feel that everyone you know who's slightly older than you still views you as a kid. You're struggling with not having friends and not being comfortable with voicing who you truly are and how you truly feel. You want to be outgo...

A letter from November 12th, 2019

A few days ago that girl you used to play boyfriends with responded to your many random messages. You already know her name. As of today, you two are talking with no intention of restarting a possible love story. I honestly don't know how to feel about it. It's strange, at the moment of writing this I've known her for about 6 years? Maybe 7. Albeit we used to play pretend, we never really start...

Time Travelled — 7 months

A letter from April 6th, 2020

Dear future me, They say before you die your brain remains active for seven minutes, and in those seven minutes you see your life flash before your eyes. Equally happy and sad memories. If I were to die right now I would see a black and white mute film, a sad and pathetic recreation of hopeless moments. And as much as I hate to admit it, it's the truth. I want to be proud to see smiles in my m...

Subject

Dear FutureMe, Hey Self. It's myself. This is kind of goofy isn't it? Anyway. Right now you are 19 years old. Writing this email to yourself. Don't you have anything better to do? Not really. Anyway. You're in love. His name is Travis. You've always wanted your last name to be Jordan. Good news! His name is Travis Jordan. You are pretty sure you'll marry him someday. You'll have bea...

You should be some sort of resistance leader by now

Dear FutureMe, There is evil. And only one person (well actually more but you play a gosh darn big role) can stop it. That's YOU or ME or...well you know...or I know? It's a good thing I'm e-mailing because I sure can't handle time travel. I don't know what kind of resistance leader you are by now, but whatever it is, I bet it's grand. And if you're not resisting or leading, well g...

Epilogue

A letter from November 11th, 2016

Dear FutureMe, Four years have passed since Donald Trump was elected president. He's probably not been reelected. How much have you changed in the past 4 years? Are you still a pharmacy manager at *? Dump those ******** if your salary hasn't reached $125k before bonus by now. Things have probably changed for the worst with the new labor matrix that's supposed to come out in 2017. Hopeful...
