The Letters From Tomorrow

Sometimes, the future knows exactly what to say.

By GoldenSpeechPublished 3 months ago 1 min read

Daniel, a lonely postman, began receiving letters addressed to people who hadn’t been born yet. The handwriting was his own, but decades older. Each letter predicted small events that came true—a neighbor’s lost dog found, a child’s birth, a marriage proposal.

Then came a letter addressed to him, warning of a tragic accident on his route.

The climax: On the predicted day, Daniel stopped to help a child cross the street, narrowly avoiding being hit himself. That night, another letter arrived—signed, “Thank you for listening, from the man you’ll become.”
