A letter from Jun 17th, 2021

Dear FutureMe, Hello dear. As you can see, we're turning 27 today, this 17th day of June 2021. It's on a Thursday and I've had a busy day which wasn't planned. I'd planned to stay at home and read for the commercial paper but I had to rush to the office to apply a smart Dl for an aunt.

Dear FutureMe, It's yet another year . We're 28 and I'm supposed to be happy to have reached this far but I am not . I am depressed and lost.

A letter from Jan 02, 2023

Per me il 2023 è appena iniziato, per te sarà acqua passata. Sei felice? Per che cosa? Sei triste? Per che cosa? Hai ansia? Per che cosa? Hai speranza? Per che cosa?
