Letters to My Future Self

Love this is an awesome gift to yourself or someone you love.

Write now, read later, treasure forever: Keep in touch with your past, present, and future selves with this collection of twelve letters. Write letters to yourself - just like entries in a diary or journal - and seal them up with the included stickers. Assign a date for future opening and don't open until the time arrives. In the years to come, break open your letters like a time capsule to appreciate the past, and all that you've become. Each letter is printed with a unique prompt like These are my roots..., Where I want to go..., I never want to forget this..., and A pep talk for the future me. Makes a perfect graduation, birthday, or anytime gift. It was listed on Oprah's favorite things in 2015

I bought this gift for the daughter of an acquaintance who is graduating High School. A thoughtful gesture without breaking the bank. What better time than 18 to contemplate one's trajectory and think about how one's future self would evaluate choices and priorities? Small enough to take to college or wherever life takes them.

I gave these to grandchildren and nieces and nephews. If the children will fill these out they will treasure them. As with any toy, if the kids don’t complete them, the books will just be worthless. Hope they use them.

This is a wonderful way to keep a personal written time capsule for yourself. If you're as sentimental as I am, you can see how this book will pay off in the future—in tears of joy, tears of sadness, tears of happiness. Gosh, I can already imagine myself opening this book up in a few decades and reading a letter a month/year. My eyes are already starting to tear up writing and thinking about that moment. I can only imagine my reaction: "gosh, my grammar could be so much better", "why did you do that?", "oh, I remember that (*tear*)", "I forgot about that moment, thank you book for bringing that moment back to me", "I'm so glad I bought this book". There are twelve envelopes provided in this book. Each envelope has a general topic written on it to help you decide what to write about, and each opens up to reveal a blank page to write a letter [see photos]. Once done, there are twelve stickers in the back of the book to seal the envelopes so you don't sneak a peek too early. You can write up to twelve letters to yourself. If that isn't enough for you, this book is one of many "Letters To Myself" books. I'm sure there is one for you, or ones to give as gifts to your family and friends. Buy it. Read your letters in 30-80 years. Don't lose it. Take a look back at yourself, your thoughts, that special moment in time. If only there was a series called "Letters From My Future Self", it would tell you to take that chance, talk to that boy/girl, do those things you wanted to do, don't have any regrets. Recommended.

This booklet is exactly as described. It arrived quickly, within a day, and has helped the child I work with open up and express herself on paper. We're using it slowly, filling it out over time, and it's a great way for her to reflect and share her thoughts. Highly recommend for encouraging self expression.

This is adorable. It actually caught the eye of my 13 year old daughter when we were walking through a store, so I came on Amazon to buy one for each of my daughters, ages 11, 13, 14, and 20. It is just a great concept, almost like a time capsule with letters to yourself, and they can write when they are supposed to open them. For example, they can write themselves a letter to be read on their wedding day. Imagine how great it would be to start your wedding day off by opening a letter written by your little girl self. I think this will be a great treasure for all of them.

My best friend's son just graduated high school. This is a great gift for milestone moments. Very nicely made.

This hardcover book contains a number of envelopes which fold out to be a single page in length, much like an airmail envelope, in keeping with the aesthetic quality of the book itself. The covers of each are printed like an envelope, with the "sender" and "recipient" addressed on it, ie "The me I used to be" or "Me, From Long Ago" to "My Future Self" or "Me, Older and Wiser", the reverse of each has a section for noting the date it was sealed on and the date to be opened upon. The suggested topic of each envelope include "These are my roots...", "Where I want to go...", "All the things I'd like to try someday...", "This is what I live for...", "A pep talk for the future me...", along with two blank envelopes. There is a page of stickers with which to seal each envelope after writing it reading things such as "hold for pickup", "air mail", "future mail", "return to sender" and an airoplane. This is something I could see being a brilliant collaborative project between friends or a child and parent, it was a number of years ago at the now defunct and disappeared 43 Things website (whose tagline was something like think it, list it, do it, and of which there was a book collecting goals listed on the site available on Amazon) that I discovered the idea of writing a letter to your future self or writing a letter to be opened fifthteen years hence. This obviously a creative product inspired by that idea.

Me encantó la idea es muy creativa y la forma en la que viene armado también. Lo compré para regalo de una amiga que es escritora y el encantó. Es ideal para tener un recuerdo original.

L ho acquistato per fare un regalo diverso dal solito,mi è piaciuto molto

Me parece una gran idea tanto para regalar como para hacerlo tú mismo.

Your very own time capsule....amazing concept
