They say that youth is wasted on the young. Many of us feel that if we only knew yesterday what we know today, how much easier life would be. The benefit of hindsight is a great thing; the only problem is that it comes too late.
But turn it on its head; there are many lessons we could learn from our younger selves. What happened to that yearning, that innocence and optimism, those ideals and beliefs? What do I do now that my get up and go has got up and gone?
At the FutureMe website you can write an e-mail to your older self reminding you of how you once felt and what you once thought. You can remind the crusty old bastard you'll one day undoubtedly become what it's like to be young and cool.
Of course, you could just use it just to write yourself a reminder to buy a lottery ticket on Saturday.
