What a wonderful idea 4 days ago

I think this could be a really excellent exercise to clarify what it is I really want out of the next five years.



A letter to the future 2 weeks ago

Well as my 25th birthday is coming up I think I will use that as a deadline for this goal :) I’d like to write a letter to myself to open on my 30th birthday. The letter will most likely contain some general though, goals and dreams.

I got this idea from lovely Kika :) She turned 25 years old yesterday, which means that in 1984 we were born within 2 weeks apart in totally different places of the world. That is Kika in Brazil and I in Iceland :)

I should do this soon! 3 weeks ago

I actually think either tonight or tomorrow, that I should write this letter. Everything is on the brink of mega change. Life altering, direction pointing change.

This seems lovely.
I’m completly going to do this. Although I won’t keep this goal for five years.
I’ll include in this letter.
My life, my accomplishments, memories that I may not remember, my illness, my excitment, and what I want to have completed by 2014

I'm gonna do this.... 3 months ago

I am…..can’t really explain why I haven’t done this (although I have my theories, I’m just not ready to face them or deal with my own issues), but I’ll write the letter, before my next birthday.



calachi just is

Fun :p 5 months ago

I did this once before, a looong time ago. I wrote myself an email and had it sent to me a year later. No idea how anymore though, some email service or other I guess. Will probably just go for a normal letter this time though; we’ll see.

I'm finally ready to write this. 6 months ago

When I adopted this goal, I had no idea what I wanted to write, because I was unsure as to what I wanted to do, and I didn’t want to write one thing, and do another. I didn’t want to dissappoint myself, so to speak. But now, I am on a clear (intended) mission, and I’m at least certain of where I want to be in 5 years, so that’s a start. I will handwrite this letter on New Year’s Eve, seal it, and put it away until New Year’s Eve of 2013. Man, that seems like a long time away. I can’t wait!



did it! 7 months ago

It wasn’t as long as I thought it’d be, but I wrote everything that I felt like I should. It was pretty fun!
