A letter from Feb 13, 2026

Subject: A Time Traveler’s Journal: From Lama (2026) to the Future Dear whoever is reading this in the future, I am writing this as a 20-year-old woman standing at the threshold of my future, just a year away from graduating as a nurse. Today is February 13, 2026, and I am sitting in my room—the same room I designed when I was only five years old. Its pink walls still embrace my dreams and remind me of my childhood; even after 15 years, I still find peace in this color. A Strange Story That Inspired Me: A few moments ago, I was reading a public letter on this website written by a man named "Ajit" from New Delhi in 2005 (the very year I was born!). Ajit was 73 at the time, speaking with such optimism about a new grey suit and his hope for life despite his heart struggles. I tried my hardest to reach out to him, wanting to tell him how much he inspired me. Even though I knew deep down it was almost impossible for him to reply, I still held onto a tiny glimmer of hope that I might hear from him. Unfortunately, his email had been disabled long ago. I felt the weight of time and how words are often the only bridge left connecting us to those who have moved on or changed. About My Dreams and Challenges: I am currently wearing the glasses that have been my companions since childhood. I dreamed of leaving them behind, but doctors told me years ago that the only solution is a "transplant" that won't happen until I am sixty, in the year 2066! I don’t know if medicine in your time has found a miracle sooner, but I accept my fate with contentment. Today, I also sent a private letter to my future self (Lama at thirty), telling her how much I love her and reminding her to cherish whoever is sitting by her side then. My Message to You: I am holding an "iPhone" and the internet is incredibly fast, but I wonder: has this device become a piece of junk in a museum by now? Have "online friends" become a thing of the past? My advice to you: Do not waste your life drowning only in work and study. Love those around you sincerely, create memories that never die, for words and memories are the only things time cannot defeat... just as Ajit’s words reached me 21 years later. Special Request: If you are reading this in 2036, please send me an email to remind me of this letter! And if it’s already the year 2066 and I’ve turned 60, remind me that it’s finally time for my eye surgery! 🤣 With love and hope, Lama Contact: 181833733@gmail.com February 13, 2026
