A Letter to Future You

The last one. Write to yourself a year from now. Seal it. Open it then. Take your time with this one. It matters more than it looks.

⏱ About 20 minutes, and one year
Kit Tashi Ren

You’ve got the book. All three guides walked the whole journey with you. This page is your printable stationery for the very last mission. Fill it in on screen, or print it and write it by hand (hand is nice for this one).

What You’ll Need

  • About 20 minutes, and a quiet spot
  • A pen, or the on-screen fields below
  • An envelope
  • A grown-up to help you remember to open it in a year

Dear Me

Write to future-you. It feels funny to start with “Dear Me.” Do it anyway. Tell them who you are right now.

Dear Me,

From, me 🧡

Then seal it. Put it in the envelope. Write the open date on the front. Give it to a trusted grown-up to keep safe, or hide it somewhere you’ll find it in a year.

One year from now, when you open it, you’ll see in your own words how much you’ve grown. That feeling is something you can’t get any other way. It’s a gift only you can give yourself.
