A letter from April 2nd, 2018

Dear Gemma, You have finally done the thing that I had always hoped for us! No, you haven't got a degree, we don't care about that anymore, let's be honest, we never did. Yes, you broke up with Ryan but I don't mean that either. What I mean is that you finally started to fight for yourself. You got up again, you squared up, you took a long hard look at yourself in the mirror and for the firs...

A letter from January 26th, 2019

Dear FutureMe, Things are a bit dull and exciting at the same time. It's a good contrast, but not, at the same time. You know what I mean? It seems like being balanced with the life you've always wanted causes consequences like being bored even though you're always on the go. Honestly I think it's really just me -- to be fair, it's always been me, the root of all these problems. I wanted to ...

Dear FutureMe, Oh gosh I'm gonna turn 18 when I get this. Obviously soo much will have changed. I can't wait to see what it is though. Are we still friends with Jennifer and Julia? And do we ever talk to Kristy? At this point in life it's after that whole thing happened with Julia and Emily but I guess we're friends again?

A letter from January 19th, 2019

Dear FutureMe, In the dark and cold days of winter, it can be hard to find hope. Especially when everything is going wrong and it’s wearing you out. There is power in remembering that you actually need very little. The solution to any problem is usually to let go of something that is hurting you. It’s natural to want somebody to comfort you and make all the problems go away but if you give th...

Oh, yes! Life is hard

Dear FutureMe, Wathever has happened to you, wherever you are and wathever you are doing, remember it is your job to maintain hope.

But if you decide to let your brain go into that selfish "default setting", where everything is wrong with the world and life is unfair to you, you wont be happy. It is y...
