Write a letter to someone

It doesn't have to be long. It doesn't have to be sent.

Choose someone: a friend you haven't seen in a while, someone who shaped you, your five-years-ago self, or yourself ten years from now.

Start with 'Hi,' or 'Dear,' and write whatever comes. You can share what you've been up to, thank them for something, apologize, or just say you thought of them.

Don't edit as you write. Don't re-read until you're done.

When you finish, you can keep it, tear it up, or actually send it.
