Hey, future me,

How has the world treated you since 2026?

I’m not sure how you’ll perceive this, or even if you’ll (I’ll) still be sentient for my (our) hundredth revolution of old Sol.

I expect that your life and insights have changed (evolved) by then as much as they’ve changed for me since retiring from the wage-slave rat race.

No one can accurately predict the future. But from here, the future of humanity, let alone my (your) future at age onehundred, looks iffy at best. I’m just curious if any of my friends and family are left? At the rate the world seems to be devolving, that would seem unlikely. But I do hope that newer generations will be able to fix what my and the generations closely surrounding it have allowed to fall into deadly, dystopian chaos loops …

Well, I hope this note finds you happy and whole. Fingers crossed…

Your past self,
Me
