Time Travelled — 12 months

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 ...

I want to remind you life will always do what it has to do so you can grow.

A letter from July 16th, 2018

Dear FutureMe, When it comes down to it, I think if any of us are going to make it, we simply just have to believe. We have to believe in the power of the small things - in the comfort of a cup of coffee, in the calming, melted hues of a sunrise, in hearing our mother's voice on the other end of the phone after a long day. We have to believe that we can overcome whatever weight life ropes to...

A letter from August 12th, 2019

Dear FutureMe, You are so happy right now. And I want you to realize that when you’re in a dark place you can get out. Because I suffered for a long time and now I’m smiling. I’m laughing by myself, I’m talking to people. I can walk around outside and at work and smile because the world is beautiful. Life has a kick to it. You just have to taste it properly. I don’t know if you’re in a relatio...

A letter from August 12th, 2011

Dear Julian, At the time I wrote this letter, I am 21. I dont know what I want to do with myself. I am very much at crossroads. There is a portion of me that wants to run away, bike around the country, maybe travel to europe and just work odd jobs to make ends meet. I'm not sure why I would do this, or why I feel an urge to. I guess its because most people who did that sort of thing really lik...

Dear Me in the future, hope you're well because then I am well.

Epilogue

A letter from January 23rd, 2019

Dear FutureMe, okay so. don't hate me. but I've decided to give up. for years I've looked down on people who don't care about their grades or don't want to get into a good college. but I can't keep pushing my limits. I'm the type of person who needs to nap a lot. I'm the type of person who needs a long checklist of simple tasks and artistic freedom and time for meditation. I can't do a lot of ...
