“Sorry!”
That’s it—one simple word. I’m writing to my future 100-year-old self. 100!! I don’t want to waste any of the valuable, limited time me of the future has remaining. They (who knows how I’ll identify in 5+ decades) don’t need to read a 10,000-word lecture from some idiot version of their past self. Current me who wrote the letter—that is, the me who wrote this 200-word post you’re currently reading—is a completely different person than the me at the time I’ll be reading the five-letter letter written by the me from erstwhile generations. Got it? Yeah, me neither. What I’m trying to say is, people change. Think about the version of you just 5 years ago. How vastly have you changed in that relatively short time period? Miserly 100-year-old me would have changed ten times as much as you have over the last half-decade—enough to have multiple versions of the Ship of Theseus physically, emotionally, mentally, philosophically, etc.ally, etc.ally. For anyone who doesn’t appreciate the brevity of the single-word message I’d impart upon geriatric me, I’ve got twice as many words for you …
