one of my favorite obsessions: futureme.org

savage but truthfull tyranny

I love reading futureme.org. This site is all about sending yourself an email that you might receive a year from now or 10 years from now. I love getting this rare glimpse of other peoples’ internal narrators. I’ve learned so much about other peoples’ relationships with themselves and with time. And, I’ve gained a lot more respect for the importance AND triviality of time by reading all the letters people are sending to themselves.

Here are some of my favorites. Nope, I didn’t write these. I’ll save those for a later post. ;)

kick yourself in the nutsack

You will wish today that you could trade the heartbeats between the then and now and become anything that you were, and leave behind anything that you are.

you could probably...

Had you forgotten? Breath into your heart.

but most of all remember you are superwoman

What would you write to your future self?

why men shouldn't write advice columns

(Hat Tip: @niniane)

(sidenote: I have a top sekret posterous blog that i love, because it’s so wonderfully lightweight. there are no expectations for how I use it. i’ll try to do that here. i think using the wordpress email submission interface will help a lot. also, i’m currently experimenting with different looks for this blog. it will be changing a little bit, frequently. let me know what you think! :) )
