A Letter For The Future (100 Ideas 2)

Envelope (100 Ideas 2)
Of the first few tasks Mim and I agreed on doing, I kept postponing this one. I had an idea what I would like to do, but didn´t feel like starting it. But I did buy a nice red envelope and two beautiful sheets of paper with a watermark.
Today I finally wrote the letter. It was easy once I started writing.

3. Write a letter to yourself in the future.
I plan to open it on New Year´s Eve 2009. The content means a lot to me. Of course I had to blur the text. It is too personal to show it to everybody.

Hmm...I was going to write to myself about 20 years in the future, next year is coming too fast for me already.

@JaKo: let us know if you post about it. :)

@Mim: actually i had planned to write a letter for myself when i´m about 50(?) years old. but my life hasn´t exactly been wonderful the past years and so i needed to write this letter, so that in one year i will have to change a few things in case nothing turned to the better side. and i didn´t want to wait 20 years for that. ;)

@Forever Young: i´m surely going to be scared opening the letter in one year as i also might not like what i read or see. i just wrote down some decisions which weren´t easy and which will demand a lot of me at the worst.
