I am inspired to give this topic a try after seeing someone give a message to his past self as a sort of reflection. I also want to do it since I just recently celebrated my birthday. I mean, it may never happen. I might never be able to talk to my past self (unless we invent and perfect time travel, Avengers: Endgame style), but being able to reflect on my present and having it connect to my past and my future seems like a good activity (mental health-wise).
I hope you learn something from my short reflection. It's not much but if you feel stuck at this point in your life, I recommend giving this activity a try. It might just help you see how far you've come at present. At least that's how I feel after recording this episode. :) Hope it helps!
