    No, I've never written a letter to myself but I do keep a journal filled with memories of what I've seen, done, felt, experienced and all that--helps me reflect and put my life in perspective.

    No, haven't written a letter to myself. Would be interesting to see what I'd have written. lol. I have no idea what I'd put in one.

    I've heard of classes doing that and thought it was neat!

    We wrote a letter to ourselves in grade 6, and did a video recording then in grade 12 we sat around and opened them and watched the video... I was terrified to see what I had said on that video, but it turned out that I just talked about my pets on the farm...a lot... It was pretty fun to see, especially since some of the people had moved away there were about 20 of us in the class.

    Our school was big on following grade 12's around with the video camera, so they gave each of us a DVD filled with memories and a recording of our graduation ceremony. It's pretty awesome to be able to look back on some of those memories with actual video of it. Except they always seemed to pick up the most embarrassing moments to follow us...

    There is actually a website that allows you to send yourself an email to yourself in the future. You can either designate it as a private email (just you see it) or a public one, in which case, it might end up posted on the site.

    FutureMe.org

    I don't so much want to send a letter to my future self, but would dearly love to have received a letter from my older/future self when I was, say, 20 or 21. My life - if I'd heeded the the letter - would have turned out very differently.

    to answer, gonna borrow some lyrics from a tune
    Another Turning Point,
    A fork stuck in the road
    Time grabs you by the wrist,
    Directs you where to go
    So make the best of this test,
    And don't ask why
    It's not a question,
    But a lesson learned in time

    It's something unpredictable
    But in the end it's right
    I hope you had the time of your life

    So take the photographs,
    And still frames in your mind
    Hang them on a shelf,
    In good health and good time
    Tattoos of memories,
    And dead skin on trial
    For what it's worth,
    It was worth all the while

    It's something unpredictable
    But in the end it's right
    I hope you had the time of your life
    Green Day
    Time of your Life
