Dear Sarah,
Where are you?
Please tell me how to get there. I'm here, lost in a labyrinth of closed doors and can't find the one that was supposed to have opened as the entrance closed.
You must have been here before. Why didn't you leave any signs on the walls or crumbs on the floor for me to follow? I don't know what to do anymore. I wish I could see you somewhere ahead of me.
Dear Sarah,
How are you?
Would I want to be you right now, or is it better where (and when) I am?
What choices did you make, and what were the consequences? Do you have any advice for me? I'm afraid of making mistakes, of choosing the wrong door – for me and you. I wouldn't want to cause you problems, stupid and ignorant as I am.
Dear Sarah,
Who are you?
I have known you for so long. I've seen you fight and lose and fight and win. I've seen you grow and shrink, climb and fall.
Do you still hate people? Are you alone once again? Are you still scared and unsure of what to do, and when, and where? Are you still me?

A letter to my future self, finally submitted to the Letters to Myself II contest.
I live in a place in my mind
(Dear Reader - The Same. They're one of the best bands ever, trust me.)
--
For the last few days, I've constantly felt kind of sick. I try to work more than I have the strength to concentrate on. I have to make decisions, plan my future. I forget things and make mistakes.
Withe every new task, I feel worse. Also with every mistake I make, and everything I realise I forgot.
Right now, it is so bad that I'm just waiting to throw up and get it over with. But I'm afraid this is not that kind of sickness that will end with just throwing up.
I'm worn out and lost. I want this to end.
Help? Please?

The letter is interesting. I like the fact that you ask the future you and that you show your concern instead of writing from an all-knowing point of view or complaining about stuff that did or did not happen.
The short paragraphs, the questions with which each one starts give potential to the whole letter.
Congratulations
It was a really nice read.
