• “Dear_Old_Me” !!
Sorry to interupt your privacy but ….I just want to tell you….. that you are going to……
• I don’t know how to say it (-_-)…
Any way, look, before reading this crap, promise me you will forget about all of it. Look , “Dear_Old_Me”, after
reading this, just consider all of it a chimera or a mere passing daydream. It happens you know…..’Cuz there is
no such real thing in our everyday life…..you know man, that it’s not feasable to come back from the
future….so do me a favor please and forget about it when ending with the last word of this trivial letter. I know
you are a man that keeps his words so am going to tell you a couple of things, Just listen well and don’t
spoil it with your usual apathy and casual stupidity,
• (-_-), ok don’t get mad , I know it is a bad joke…… come ON….. don’t take me wrong and just follow me
pleaaaase.
Life would not change really, life,”Young_Me”, is a both rise and fall, the ritual will be still the same, you
know…any way I am not going to spoil the zest of the unknown, I am not going to corrupt the endless stream
of days by revealing some forbidden secrets….I am not going to tell you where I am living right now ‘cuz simply
I may be living in a “Your secret garden” of your dream, or …. I may be living in the realm of the dead ,any way
who knows?……………Me of course, Me but …..just drop it….
look, Just be yourself, don’t ever change but don’t be surprised when these countless smiling faces around you
would vanish one day ‘cuz only few of them will remain by your side. This is life you know, just watch your
back and keep on your path smiling like you used to do whatever hindrances would be.
Ow, Tik Tak, It’s the end as we have already reached this crossroads together right now, wake up, wash your
face and start a brand new day, Yet, don’t forget, This is only a mere dreaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam. Take care of your
coffee machine and take care of you, OW sorry , I mean “Me”.
• ADIOS
Yours.

• Dear Me,
I guess the only thing that you have done good so far is never regret all the decesions u took once in you life, either
good or the outnumberd wrong ones.
Life darling won’t change unless you change your inner perception of things and be delighted with the little simple
objects around you, some acquaintances as well .In few years time, you will be convinced you were such a
happy spoiled girl, you had everything you wished for.Be sure you will visualizing for future appreciation some
sweet moments you are undergoing in this very moment . Always rememeber how you restored yourself from
murky dark days. Patience is the key to salvation, you still have more tougher chores if you really wana
achieve your dreams…
You know in this life villains can’t get their happy ending so choose the fairy character you wana play all along your
life ; I can’t tell you more about your future. I mean self-disclosing good things may render you lazy and idle,
as for the bad ones, you won’t surely escape them unless you turn to be patient and have a strong will to
defeat troubles .You really cannot change the tides of destiny as long as you would keep that pessimistic point
of view !!!.
My Stubborn dog-headed darling, i can’t turn a blind eye about the fact you will always look more beautiful and
stunning and happy ; just drink more water ! it is said that the water make you look pretty younger.
YOURS TRULY KISSES
4. Malek’s Letter to Malek
Dear past me,
I couldn't find the words and I don't know where to begin. May God bless your heart.
Here you are, in your final year of University, less than 4 months away from your
graduating and getting out in the wide world and you are not even prepared. No
matter, the good news is that 10 year from now, you're going to be fine, better than
ever... But you're going to go through some tough times to get here. Dear old me, I
barely remember your features and how you were. But part of you will always be
within me, that part will remain forever, buried deep inside. Yet I remember you
begging yourself to sleep at night, seeing the world as a darker place, a dark paradise.
Surrounded by the witchblood plants those that grow only by absorbing your gore,
and I never forget that image when you were afraid even to talk with new people... I
wish I could go back and tell you how much I feel sorry for you but trust me the best
is yet to come dear. I guess you had never experienced such a feeling when you smell
the cheerful peony flower! I promise and preach you that you will. Lot of things have
changed, and you're going to do amazing things. My me, until the moment you get
here I want you to promise me that when it sucks and you feel like all is lost, look at
your family. Your brothers are your biggest fan, your dad loves you unconditionally
and your mother is constantly your cheerleader. You have a loving family and the
moment you give all troubles up to God is the moment He blesses you with a never
ending love. Now there is two of me. Me and you both are fighting to reach the
unreachable. Your other half.
5. Moody’s Letter to Moody• Dear past Me,
You don’t know this yet, but 10 years from this moment, scientists will invent a machine that can send
information back to the past by distorting the space-time continuum.
Now, I know this sounds absolutely insane, which it is, but here I am, talking to you, my past self. And in
case you think this is some flaccid joke sent to you by one of your friends, allow me to demonstrate that
it’s not. In summer 2010, you ate that entire banana pie and told everybody it was Hubbard. But we
both know that poor dog was innocent, don’t we? And, oh boy, that pie was something else…
Anyway, I’m doing just fine over here. I’m happily married with two wonderful twin daughters, Hailey
and Jade. I have a steady job at one of the biggest firms on the planet and I own an antique manor
perched on a mountain peak.
Hahahaha, I was just pulling your leg, you gullible vegetable. I’m actually homeless. Did you really
believe I was going to give away our dream? That I’ve forgotten the dream we’ve fantasized about for
hours and hours for so many years? The dream of one day packing a backpack and exploring every
parcel of the Earth?
Because I haven’t. In fact, I’m right in the middle of it. I’m writing this letter on the back of a giant turtle
of the Galapagos Islands. I think his name is Jonathan. He and Hubbard seem to get along quite all right.
I can’t even begin to tell you how amazing the journey has been for me so far. It was undoubtedly the
best decision I’ve ever made, and I don’t regret a single moment.
So, don’t worry about your bad grades, your lousy relationships, about every mistake you’ll make,
because eventually you will be sitting where am right now In 10 years no matter what happens, writing
this exact same letter to your past self.
Take care, buddy.
Sincerely mine.
