Time Travelled — almost 10 years

But your lips are venomous poison

Dear FutureMe, This is you, 10 years ago. A couple of months back Jess told me a dream she had. We were the age you are now. Let me start by saying a few things. Firstly, it must feel good to be done with everything - school, exams, university - now you have real freedom. Secondly, enjoy yourself, and relax. You're kind, humourous, intelligent and beautiful. You have nothing to worry abo...

Dear FutureMe, This isn't meant to be harsh, but come on girl, you got engaged 12 years ago. If he hasn't married you by now, you really need to ask yourself, is this what you really want? Don't settle honey. If he's still not ready to commit to you, it probably isn't right for you to commit to him. If he has married you, Congratulations and if you've split up, don't...

A letter from May 27th, 2020

Dear FutureMe, I hope you have successfully broken up with your phone by now! Congrats I want my new relationship with my phone to be that I only use it when i’ve thought through why I want to use it, do only what i intended to do on it, and have enough willpower to put it down. I also want to diminish social media use further if possible. I also want to not feel a need to reach for my phone ...

A letter from June 17th, 2019

Dear FutureMe, I let Jesus Into my life today and I am so proud of myself for letting go and giving him all control. I am letting him take over my life and am trusting in the plan that he has for me. I know that this is the right decision and I am so proud of myself. I hope that in my future I am still letting go for him and know that I never have to go through anything alone. Everything I fee...

A letter from June 17th, 2019

Dear Future Me, Now that I am entering a new chapter in my life -- going to college, I am hoping that the friends I have gained from all the past years will still have a part in my future journeys. Though we will be away, making new memories with new people, and learn things in life in different ways, I sure hope that we will still anticipate seeing and talking to each other. I will ...

A letter from June 17th, 2019

Dear FutureMe, This is hard because you're writing this at 11 at night and usually that isn't so late except it is right now because you're exhausted. But you're also happy. For the first time in a long time. It's weird and nice, like taking a deep, deep breath after being underwater for as long as you can possibly stand it. It's a relief more than anything, I never thought we'd get here. ...

A letter from June 17th, 2019

Dear FutureMe, You're at a tipping point — no, actually, a precipice. You're aware of it, looming in the distance, but you haven't quite figured it out. And by that, I mean you don't quite know what it is or what you'll initiate that may send you careening off its obvious edge. But in this letter, what I want to do is spare the details and instead, tell my future self what it feels like ...

Time Travelled — 12 months

A letter from June 19th, 2019

Dear FutureMe, I hope you've learned and reflected from your ups & downs! Especially the downs so the lessons dont repeat themselves. I want to remind you life will always do what it has to do so you can grow. I want to remind you that in the past year you have surely gone through uncomfortable changes and I hope you've been courageous as you went through them. It's the best way to deal wi...
