Time Travelled — 6 months

I'm not too sure.

Dear FutureMe, I just got an email from future me, from a year ago, and it's got me thinking. It's about him, the boy I love and will always love. It was saying to get over him, to not fall too deep because there was no chance of us ever going out but we're going out at the moment and it's amazing and I'm falling in love with him and I don't want it to stop and it's so surreal. I want you to r...

This is you 6 months ago!

Dear FutureMe, I am so confused right now. I am scared, unsure of the future, and impatient with knowing what will happen. As I read this months from now who knows where i'll be... I could be in the police academy, I could be barely paying bills, or I could even be dead. Though I wish for the best it has been a surreal thoughts to realize that the possibilities of change in the next few mont...

Let's see.

Dear FutureMe, You have just recovered from a mild attack of anxiety, stemming from the paralyzing thoughts of dying alone, unmarried, and childless while sitting in the dining area of Panera Bread in Ann Arbor. This attack was exacerbated by the fact that you don't even particularly enjoy the atmosphere of Panera, or its food. You've come here because you're cheap and refuse to pay for ban...

Hey, Kiddo. On the day I wrote this to you, I was so happy because I was starting to feel like that person that I loved to be. The girl who was so full of life she could barely contain herself sometimes. The girl who smiled for no reason and felt like she was truly blessed. I hope you still feel that way. I hope you are still you. I hope you still have your spark. For a little while, you...

Dear FutureMe (Written in 2008)

Dear FutureMe, I hope you are happy, beautiful, healthy and smiling. Currently, I am with Daniel, we are coming up to one and half years soon, it's a pretty big deal. I wonder if I'll still be with him when I read this message, when you read this message. I wonder if I'll have found the love of my life, the man I want to spend the rest of my life with. I finish my undergraduate degree at...

ARE YOU HAPPY

Dear FutureMe, YOU ARE NOT SO HAPPY THESE DAYS, IN FACT, YOU ARE A LITTLE CONFUSED ABOUT YOUR FUTURE INCLUDING JOB AND FAMILY. You don't like you present job, right? You hate the parteners from TW, right? You are not interested in your job content, right? You haven't found the other half, so you are a little nervous, right? Does it matter much? It doesn't. Just believe in yourself, you wil...

A letter from July 3rd, 2011

Dear FutureMe, Happy 28th birthday. I hope this letter finds you all cleaned up and pretty. What can you be happy about today, after 28 years of pursuing happiness? Are you still going to your therapy sessions with Dr. Tania? If you are, it's almost been a year now. You have come such a long way. I am very, very proud of you. You sure left behind that dependent, whining, inconvenient litt...
