The lightning that strikes twice. The future self in the fog. Beautifully written! ❤️ I'm going to read some old journals now thanks to your essay. 🙏

OMG! Your letter prompted me to get out a notebook I wrote when I was 50-year's old. I didn't even know I had it until recently, when I came across it while looking for something else. It intrigues me and causes me to stop and ponder my thoughts and actions of 34 years ago. I really have to set it aside because, as you say - 'rabbit holes' - just waiting for the chance to be rediscovered. If your intention is to really sort through all of your writings, I wish you luck and many years of great explorations.

Hannah,

Your story is beautiful. You were so smart to write in your journal to your future self. What a wonderful way to reminisce and see that you turned out to be ok and that your present self is much happier than your past self. I’m proud of you. Miss you too.💕
