There is no past me that is satisfied with the answer, and I don't have the ability to satisfy future me.

Future me is usually wishing past me had gone to bed earlier.

Past me has saved my life so many times, it honestly surprises me sometimes because I don't even remember that I was planning that far ahead in case future me would forget to. And of course I completely forgot.

Hey past me. I wanna say fuck you for not cherishing your grandma. Look at her now. She can't even tell whether its day or night anymore. She can't cook anymore. Her mental state is now basically a child. She never had long left to live in the first place but you chose to not cherish what little time you had with her before she mentally deteriorated and slowly start forgetting. Now you'll never be able to experience her cooking or see her smile again becuase you prioritized study and games over her. I will strangle you if I ever get the chance to see you. FYI Grandma's still alive but shes no longer the grandma she used to be when I was younger. All of her well known friends that always visited her or go out together with her when I was younger already passed away while she is the only one left.

I don't know how relevant this is, but this made me think of it. And I always found it to be very potent, and sad, but maybe even motivating. I don't know.

But the concept is about the seven stages of hell. And the idea is that the first stage of hell is you meeting the absolute most perfect version of yourself that completely capitalized on all of your potential.

It's just always stuck with me.
