Time Travelled — almost 6 years

A letter from July 22nd, 2016

Dear FutureMe, I hope you finally found peace. During this time you went through a really bad depression episode that slowly bled into all aspects of your life. It's okay though. If you remember, the months of June-July of this year, you have a bit of a revelation that you wanted to pay off your $61k in student loans and give some money back to your parents. After settling all debt and havin...

A letter from Jan 3rd, 2022

Dear FutureMe, If i learned something in 2021, it’s not to expect anything to happen. It’s better to be surprised when something does happen, rather then being disappointed when it doesn’t. sometimes you just need to learn to walk through the pain, then go above it, don't let it get to you. Sometimes, the person you think they'd be, aren't the actual person they are. And that's expect...

A letter from July 15th, 2012

Dear Future Self, I am writing to you now, on the eve of my 20th birthday. I don’t exactly know what I want you to know that I don’t think you’ll know ten years from now. Who knows? Maybe I won’t change a bit and you’ll still be obsessed over the same boys, reading the same books, watching the same TV shows, and hoping one day you’ll grow into a woman that we both could respect. But I ho...

Dear Outward Grownup, Inward Child, Salutations. How goes everything? Where am I now? There is really no need to ask questions in these sorts of emails. I never understood why people would do things like that since it's not like you can write back and tell current me. So instead I guess I'll point out some goals and advice I hope I've kept in mind since Fri. 4 June 2010: - I want to tell ...

A letter from July 7th, 2019

Dear Di, Wow! Today, a day in the past, you received a letter from yourself from four years prior. You were a teen, you were just a bit naive, but you were wise. You still are wise - I think. In the letter you wrote about life at 17, and how the people around you (one person in particular) has impacted you in a way you can't even describe. To answer 17-year-old Diana's question, you do re...

Time Travelled — over 10 years

For what you have become.

So 30 year old me, what's to say... 19 now and confused about life, as we all are. To travel the world, find my perfect woman (though she can hardly be perfect if she changes weekly) and live a happy life in a faraway country... To run the corporate rings of marketing and to set up my own firm, following the expectations and wishes of society. To never even reach this age? Hopefully my fa...

A letter from June 26th, 2019

Dear Twinkle, I hope this letter finds you in one of those mechanical mundane days of life where you are, as usual, systematically busy with your work and this letter slips into your mail - and mingles with the spam mails until you open it one day and *gasp*. According to my future predictions (which were made, taking into account several parameters) we must be in different cities by now....
