Imagine this: You come home after a long day of classes and find a sealed, handwritten letter on your desk. It’s addressed to you in handwriting that feels familiar, yet somehow distant. When you open it, you realize it’s from your 70-year-old self. This future you has lived a full life and experienced the long-term consequences (both positive and negative) of the habits and choices you’re making now. Some of those choices turned out to be helpful; others had lasting effects you didn’t expect. Some of what they say surprises you. Maybe they’re thankful for small habits you didn’t think mattered. Maybe they’re facing health issues tied to behaviors you assumed were temporary.Your task: Write a short letter from your 70-year-old self to your present-day self. Be sure to use specific course vocabulary from this unit in your letter. Mention one behavior you’re doing now that your older self is thankful for. Mention one behavior you’re doing now that your older self may regret. Using concepts/theories from class, explain why each behavior mattered over time. Reflect briefly on how these behaviors have affected the way you have aged by the time you are 70.
