Letters to Future Us

Letters to future us. Each write a letter to open together in one year, then hide them.

Sit down somewhere cozy with paper, envelopes and something warm to drink. Each write a letter to the two of you one year from now: what life looks like today, what you're excited about, a prediction or two, and something you love about the other person right now. No peeking. Seal them, write "Open on" and the date a year from today on the front, and hide them together somewhere safe. Take a photo of the two of you holding the sealed envelopes, and set a reminder for next year.

More about this mission

Ideas for what to put inside: your current favorite song, the prices of a few things you buy all the time, where you think you'll be in a year, and a question you want your future selves to answer. Tuck in a printed photo or a ticket stub too.

Make it a tradition: each year on the date, open last year's letters and write new ones. After a few years, you'll have a stack that tells your story.
