If you had a time machine and could send just one message to your past self, what would it say?
Haven’t we done this before?
Actually… yes.
Here’s the previous Daily Prompt:
“If your future self could send you one sentence, what do you hope it would say?”
I did one better than a sentence, I wrote a whole letter
We’ve officially covered this topic twice already. The last time was on August 11, when I simply shared the same post I originally wrote on June 16.
I’m getting some serious mileage out of that one.
To make today’s version slightly different, I’d like to upgrade the time machine. Forget the DeLorean. I want the Star Trek transporter so Scotty can beam me back to my younger self. That way I can hand-deliver the letter instead of trusting the postal service with the space-time continuum.
As for the message?
There’s really no point in writing it again.
I already said exactly what I wanted to say in my letter to my younger self on June 16. Then I recycled it on August 11. And now, here we are again.
At this rate, my younger self is going to start wondering why the same older guy keeps showing up with the same advice.
Maybe this is less of a time machine and more of a really efficient content management system.
