Dear FutureMe, I have become completely, though temporarily addicted to talking to you. I like the idea of you receiving bits of the past, piece by piece, rather than in complete detail. I like the fact tht you'll have to wait until tomorrow to recieve the next message. It might be some trivial concern. Or I might say something very emotional and personal. It might contain the very wisdom you need to get through the day. You never know. I've been a little blue lately because of ending things with S. Perhaps you're still friends with her. Probably not, though. Just remember that you had some lovely times with her. I like the idea of addressing "myself" in the second person, the idea that when I read this, I'll be a much different being. I'm starting to become sentimental or reflective, and I know you'll probably find that a bit tedious. I think one of the things that impressed me about many of the "future letters" is how they seem to serve a therapeutic purpose: reminding future selves to get massages, to go out more, to enjoy life, to get work done. Above all, to be happy. Be happy.
