I love this one. Love it, love it, love it! Past Me is something I have given a lot of thought to. Having empathy for our younger selves, knowing that really and truly, most everything works out and we really are ok. How nice it would have been to know that back then.
Here's my link which I forgot to include in my first post and then deleted to include here. I'm still newb.

So much for the past, what for the future?
I found this very cathartic when I wrote it, especially forgiving my past self. The note i wrote to fufutre me i have also emailed my self, to recieve 6 years in the future, via http://www.futureme.org
It's been a long time, it's good to be back.
kept it short and sweet. this site looks interesting.
The wonderful thing about blog prompts is that one is 'forced' (well, not really) to study things from a different point of view. Thanks.
wow .. this was one of those times when stuff just started to 'come out' without even really thinking of it
great prompt
I really treasure this weekly prompt!
this was a good one! thanks Karen!
:)
I realise I've written letters from my past and future self before, but never TO either, so here's one to the me of 6 years ago.
Thank you for another thought provoking prompt :)
Aloha!

Just browsing and Got inspired by this one, just for fun! I am inspired by alot of these prompts. Lately, time just gets away from me before I realize it. Waiting for a weather break!
written in memory of a dear friend - a sweet soul who grew too old too soon!!!
I hope I've done this right. This post is the first one up on my new sub-domain. Fingers crossed!
OK, now I think I've done it right. Site was in maintenance mode. Oops. Should be working now.
At first, glance, I was like, "whoosh." This came to me in the middle of the night. I hope you enjoy.

Fun and thought-provoking prompts!
After reading Stephen Levine’s book, “A Year to Live,” and discovering the concept of reconciliatory letters, Jules is in the process of sending letters like mad, both physically and via her words on the wind, to every entity animate or inanimate, that she has taken exception to. Her first letter is documented here, and this letter, concerning her wellbeing in the future, is documented here.
Dear past me,
Here is the blog that is telling the story about the past.

Dear Future me,
Here is the blog that tells about me now and in the future...far, far into the future!

I'm not usually encouraged to talk to myself...
I enjoy talking to myself. But never have I spoken to myself so far in the past or future...

Whoa, this was a bit of a tear-jerker. But it was very cathartic. Thanks for a great prompt. muddyfingersmeg.
Hello,
Good Afternoon. I'm writing this to tell you about a new blog that I have started, called Tell a Tale. It’s a platform where one gets to write on a prompt, and attach it with that weeks prompt here. It’s about writing stories. A Story on the prompt, normally. I would like to tell you about it and would request you to pass on the information to your fellow bloggers, provided you like it.
I would suggest you to visit the blog and check it out. If you like it, please pass the information. I would like you to take an active participation in the same and be present there visibly.
Thanks for reading this. I will be waiting to see you there in the Blog.
Thanks and regards,
Story Teller :)

This challenge couldn't be more perfectly timed to my life right now, and it was a pleasure to contribute!

the past is something i dont like to think about, a life lesson that zigged when it shouldve zagged. id like to think that, presently, im moving on and living above it.
theres been a lot of soul searching for me with some of these prompts, but this one was short and sweet.
I just stumbled across your wonderful prompt blog in a google search for writing prompts.
Still trying to find the link to subscribe, but definitely have your blog bookmarked, and will be back daily.
I'm in love with the inspiration here!
