A letter from May 04, 2026

Time Travelled — 6 months

Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, Life update: You got into Y Combinator 2 months ago, and life has never been the same. You're now in SF to attend Y Combinator, working harder than ever on your startup. I still don't know what's going to happen, we're still in early stage and figuring out how to get to PMF. You don't have to worry about how to pay the rent, bills, and survive anymore. This is actually a really big achievement for you. All those time you spent working as a waiter, bartender, cleaner to live by hourly rates, and struggling to pay your bills, and have no money to spend is gone. You have surpassed that stage of life. But still can't guarantee anything you know. I hope there comes no time where you have to be in that same boat, but if you have to do it once again in order to achieve something great, then don't be scared! Your main goal is to do something big and meaningful, ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT. I hope by the time you've received this letter, you're better than who you're now. Not only in terms of success, but also in terms of the mindset, emotional control, health, peace, and happiness. There's still a long long way to go, and the only thing you have to do in this journey is enjoy what you to, and do something meaningful. No matter where life takes you. You are a child of this Universe, and your role in this Universe is to experience the life you've been given. You know how rare it is to be alive right? So you're already extremely lucky to experience all of this. All the other success you achieve will just add on top of this, and honestly it can never outweigh the chances of you being alive. So love yourself, enjoy what you're doing, and don't waste this life! Love you,
