I wonder where you are...

Dear FutureMe, You've probably forgotten about this email. But that's alright, I guess. Lately I've been so worried about you - you've had to make so many life-changing decisions and I'm sure you've been through a hell of alot doing it. Do you miss home? Do you miss anything? I hope you do. I know you never really loved it here, but it was a big part of your life for so long, maybe ...

wow

Dear FutureMe, I hope this gets to me..where to begin? I hope by the time I get this, Jake and I are married. Do you even know him yet? Does he know you? You live together, you're having a baby..why do you feel so hopeless? If it hasn't stopped by now, make it. You're powerful and you've gotten through a whole hell of a lot before, so what are you waiting for? Scream at the top of your lungs ...

So how is life now?

Dear FutureMe, This is the anniversary of the day your husband had the worst headache of his life--a burst aneurism caused a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Remember the trip to the hospital on Saturday, the stroke he had on Sunday, the Monday that you thought you were a widow for sure. The trip to Emory, the craniotomy, the coma. The day the doctor told you that he would never hold a conversat...

FUTURE SHOULDN'T BE IN THE JUNK MAIL

Dear FutureMe, THIS IS TO ENSURE MY LOVELY FUTURE LETTERS WON'T BE DELIVERED INTO MY JUNK MAIL. I receive loads of stupid e-mails in my junkmail. They try to conn me, selling me illegal or irreal stuff, or porn with really insulting headings. I hate them!!!!

hello

Dear Future, It's nice to know you exist. I can't wait for you to happen!!! You've been an odd thing to look forward to. I don't want to complain about what you've done before, and how you threw those unpleasant surprises at me and all that, but if I had to choose you to be my future again, I totally would. Thanks for everything. But most of all, thanks for being so enigmatic and unknown. I ...

Epilogue

Letter from the past...o_O

Dear 'FutureMe', This Christmas (2005), I was violently ill after having eaten Somerfield pork, and stayed up half the night in agony because if I curled up in bed I found it impossible to breathe, and so had to sleep flat out on my back. Please don't eat Somerfield pork. Ever. Love, 'PastMe'

Second time around...

Dear FutureMe, I don't really know why this seems like the only way that you'll hear the truth. There is nothing wrong with you. You are a wonderful person - inside and out. I guess the first time I sent a letter I thought that maybe this would all be over. Sometimes I feel like I will be sick forever. For a while I am fine, and then my thoughts get desperate. I feel sick and fat and ug...
