FutureMe

I found an interesting site: FutureMe.org. Here you can write yourself an E-Mail to a future date you can choose. Think about your future, are there goals you want to achieve and will you have succeeded when you recieve the E-Mail?

Maybe I will try harder, now that I know I will have to answer some questions from my PresentMe from today.

I hope I will succeed in moving together with Ingo AND have a good job with nice colleagues. And maybe with a shorter way to work so that I don´t need a car anymore. I hope I will succeed in being a happy person living in a "normal" relationship. I want to be able to sell one set of the bikes, one oven, one fridge ...

Maybe I - we - will have nice neighbours and live in a nice, friendly town in a nice apartment. We will hopefully both have good jobs then.

I picked today in three years - was that a time too short?

On the other hand - how long can my life go on like this or is this simply the way it is these days?

I knew two other couples living apart from each other due to work, being together only on the weekends and holidays. Both have new partners now, it didn´t work. Sometimes that frightens me a lot.

We live like this for nearly 12 years now (with interruptions where we lived together) but it is very hard sometimes.

I don´t know other people being in this situation. Are there tricks to make it less hard?
Especially on the first day of the week?
I feel pretty bad (sad) today, pretty alone. My stomach hurts.

Well. Let´s see where we are in three years. I´ll work again on my resumé tomorrow when I feel better. Then I´ll work on Ingos´ and maybe we find jobs in the same town some day (in the near future).
