A Letter to My 60-Year-Old Self

Everyone seems to want to write a letter to their young self. It has little benefit, so this is a bit lost to me. Or it hurts. My letter is short. "No, do not do this, do not believe him. Do not try it." This is opposite to Nike's propaganda. I would say "I do not want to do it." I think it would be nice to write a letter to my 60-year old. This gave me 13 years of effort.

I hope everything is going well. I felt your life was very good when I was 47 years old sitting here. He is not a man without sorrow and pain but a wonderful person. Your child should go out now. If not, please let them go. This is the best for them. For your benefit, I hope that they all receive university scholarships. Please help them pay for the university, they do not need to use student loan debt to start their growth. Even if it is the way they lived in Egypt for two years, quit all forms of debt. They may think you are stupid, but they later thank you. Your child is now big enough to understand death. Please prepare for you. Also prepare for death. Knowing that this road is not infinite, I have read enough attention.

I count Lucky stars you have made the right choice for men. I already know that not everyone can get what they have now. Thank you everyday you can move and laugh and you can pull a coffee cup over your lips. Please spend your time spending time with your friends and seeing the pictures so you can recall the pleasure of being in your 30s and 40s. It will be safe in the 1960s. I thank my old friends. At the moment, good friends find that you are worth more than the car you drive, the car you own, or 401K. Okay, maybe 401K

Do not purchase magnifying glasses. It will not end. Random hair, wrinkles and marks left by a bad night in Mexico will not change your identity. Remember that all traces, wrinkles, freckles make you different. Remember, you are a role model for your child. Relationship with aging depends mainly on how you handle it. Do not blow me.

Do not complain. This is not worth it. So far, you have changed your thoughts for the most part, and no one is surprised by you. Please enjoy for the next 20 years. Please remember that you felt that you were mastering the world when you are 47 years old. Let's start thinking about who got what; this ring, necklace, old picture. These first 47 years have accelerated. I bet that time is not getting late. Make sure your child knows that they are three of the four best things you ever did. The father who married them was the fourth person. You can not convey them well enough. As you die, they will want to listen to secular, excessive repetitions, and everything in between. Listen to me.

But what I mean is the opposite, you can do it. My idea is to write a letter explaining to myself, 60 or 70, what you are doing, feeling, what you live in now, what you want to achieve. It becomes almost time capsule and can be opened only on a specific date and time. The only rule is to live for so long. In addition to families, important odds are not that important in a few years. And other seemingly meaningless things are all now. Then there are friends, the majority of which come and go, and only a few people endured the trial of time. It is sad, but as you do, you have to accept and proceed

When I received an e-mail containing a letter I wrote, I was surprised that I completely forgot the letter. This is my 26 - year - old letter from me, I am writing a letter to me at the age of 26. Please read it again, this letter is as sharp and relevant as I received today. Just as I saw it for the first time today, there are a number of problems I was about to solve at the time: coping with uncertainty, questioning my purpose, thinking about people in my life - at different levels. I hope to continue working for the rest of my life.
