给未来的自己一封信英语作文高二（精品20篇）

未来的我：

你好！

我不知突然想到给你写信，过得开心吗？还是像以前那样没有自信吗？开心的心情随着年龄慢慢消失是吗？是不是很多压力的感觉呢？你还记得你以前说过的话吗？你是多么成功，多么渴望自由的吗？04~09年那个时期，你一定还记得吧？经过后，你一定在所有的方方面面都更坚强更勇敢了吧？曾经的你是多么没有自信和勇敢，每次上课你都不够勇敢举手发言，每天都是开心就笑，难过就哭。自己有想法不告诉给家人，现在的你还是一个调皮男孩吧？

还记得吗？你的最爱——篮球，你说等你长大会继续你的篮球梦，现在怎么样了？哦对了，你还说过要是没有完成就去完成公务员梦。

你说还要孝顺家人，赚了钱就给家人买套豪华别墅，做到了吗？还是以经买了，如果没有请即快买。04~09之间是他们为你操心，是他们在你身边陪伴这你，一定不要忘记。你是个重友谊的人，那些并肩走过的朋友，能不能一一叫出他们，他们还在你的心里，还联系吗？你的朋友们还是像亲兄弟一样吗？你们一定要做一辈子的好朋友？还有，不管有多难，一定要走完。

最后，我祝未来的我：

身体健康，万岁如意。

此致

敬礼！

Dear Sales Manager,

I, the undersigned, am a senior in the Computer Science Department of Tsinghua University. I ordered a book which is entitled Practical Writing and Reading for NETEM by Wang Li on December 20th, 2004.

However after reading the book on January 10th, 2005, I found that it is a pirated one so that I write to you for complaint.

The book has brought me some negative effects. To begin with, much of my valuable time and energy have been wasted in reading the book since it is quite hard to identify many words in the book. What’s more, I have not benefited from reading the book since some of keys to the exercises are misprinted.

I would like to be informed whether you can refund me the money or change another book for me. I am looking forward to your early reply.

Sincerely Yours

I want to be a famous report when I grow up

I want to be a famous report when I grow up,because report is really funny

and can travel around world.

I want to travel Hawaii,but travel Hawaii need a lot of money,and if I

become a famouse report I dont need a lot of money!

I really want to become a report,what do you think?

如今你也到了而立之年，你准备好了吗?

不管你是否准备好了，都必须去面对一切。时间不会因为你而大发慈悲，“你还没准备好，我停下来等你两年吧。”不会的，永远不会出现这种情况。既然如此，那为什么你不提前做好准备呢?

其实，写这封信的主要目的是想要提醒你，不要忘记下面几件事情：

第一，20年后，你早已离开校园，开始在社会上打拼。初入社会，难免会经历一些挫折，你会因为那些挫折而放弃努力，从而认定自己不是成大事的人吗?不，你不会的。谁的人生会一帆风顺呢?失败是成功之母，怎么可以因为一些挫折，就轻易失去信心呢?要记得，可以输给对手，但不能输给自己。

第二，20年后，或许，你已经组建了一个小家庭，有了自己的小孩。还记得中学那段不幸的经历吗?因为你的胆小、懦弱，被同学欺负。你愿意让你的小孩重蹈覆辙吗?如果不愿意的话，那请做出一些有成就的事情，首先让自己变得胆大坚强，让你的小孩以你为荣，让他可以自豪地向小伙伴们炫耀，“看，那本小说，是我爸爸写的......”高子新，你能做到吗?我相信你能做到。

第三，20年后，父亲已经快要进入花甲之年，也该好好享受晚年了。想想爸爸这一辈子可真不容易，为了你拼命工作，你作为他的长子，也是他的依靠，你一定要好好孝敬他，让他度过一个安乐的晚年。

对了，你也要孝敬妈妈，偶尔抽出时间陪她唠叨一下，相信，她一定会被感动，会很开心的。

第四，20年后，爷爷奶奶或许已经不在了。还记得吗?小时候，是谁照顾你的?是爷爷奶奶。不要总想着等自己功成名就，取得一些成就之后，再报答他们，俗话说：“子欲养而亲不待”。他们可能等不到那一天。趁他们还健在，多陪陪他们，和爷爷逛街解闷，帮奶奶做一些力所能及的家务......

第五，20年后，你还会懦弱吗?不，经过20年的洗礼，你已经是顶天立地的男人，因为你已经迈出挑战自己的一步。记得舅舅曾对我说过，每个人所害怕的事物，其实都不像他所想的那样可怕，人们都是被自己的想象吓怕的。

每个人身上都有弱点，谁都可能输给自己。其实输给对手一点也不可怕，怕就怕你输给自己。

是的，如果一个人总是被自己打败，总是战胜不了自己，那么最弱小的对手也能轻易地将他打败。

高子新，你战胜自己了吗?你如果战胜自己，人人都将对你赞不绝口，相信这一幕一定会在20年后出现的!但这仅仅是一个开始，绝不是最后的结局。

现在我能想到的只有这些。如果再想到什么，我会随时写信通知你的。

最后，祝福我最亲爱的你：

身体健康，一切顺利!

杨发明：

看到这封信后不要惊讶，没错，我是十年前的你。

杨发明，记住：你大学快要毕业了，一定不可以松懈。以前的你总是懒懒散散，不把学习放在心上，可是现在你一定要拼搏，坚持。有人说：“杨发明学习很好！”可是，你扪心自问，自己真的有大家想的那么优秀吗？你真的配得上大家的称赞吗？你真的对得起大家的期望吗？不，你没有，你配不上，你对不起。所以，现在，一定要好好把握这一时段，让那些心里的疑惑彻底消失。正所谓“艰苦奋斗一阵子，幸福生活一辈子。”你一定要记得我的忠告。

杨发明，你记住：你已经成年了，不是一个只会问父母要吃要喝的小孩子了。父母对你的养育，对你的心血，你一定是最清楚的。他们对你的爱，你也一定是最懂的。父母一辈子的心思都放在了你的身上，你一定不可以辜负他们。还有更重要的是，你一定要孝顺。百善孝为先，连这一点都做不到，你还可以干什么？现在他们老了，你一定要多多的陪伴他们。不论你有多么的忙，你都要常回家看看，不可以让他们觉得孤独，因为那里才是属于你的家，那里有等你回家吃饭的年迈的父母；现在他们老了，你一定要体贴他们。在外面你要报喜不报忧，他们已经为你操心了一辈子，不可以继续让他们操心了；现在他们老了，你一定体谅他们。有时候，或许他们会有些啰嗦，可是，你不可以嫌弃，因为他们始终是为了你好，是在为你着想。

杨发明，你记住：你要快乐。经历了那么多事情，你也有了一定的积累了许多人生烦恼。没关系，这些都不算什么，把他们都抛得远远地。你的人生不可以被忧伤，烦恼占据；还有，你要坚强。即使遇到再打再多的挫折，你一定不能倒下。“忧郁的日子需要镇静，相信吧，快乐的日子将会来临。”只要你足够坚强，时时充满希望，信念，没有什么是你克服不了的。

希望你记住我的话。

十年前的你

龚子涵（六年级）

亲爱的龚子涵：

您好！

记得12岁的时候，哥哥远离了你，去上海当海军。以前你也喜欢军人，家中的乐高玩具很多，有航空母舰、黑鸟侦察机、轰炸机等。哥哥的参军，更加激起了你对军营的热爱。从此，参军成了你的梦想。

上了小学，有订阅报刊的机会了，你每一次都订阅小哥白尼的报刊。到了六年级的时候，你找到了和你一样的军迷。你俩一起打扫包干区，有一次，他问你：“听过炎龙特种部队吗？”“没，我没听说过，炎龙那是个啥？你给我讲一讲吧。”“我给你讲一讲，那是一个神秘的部队，世界十大部队之一，3800人，分三个营，分别是猎鹰……”这时，组长来了，他把海聊着的你们逮了个正着，从此你俩就和打扫包干区绝缘了。

初中时，哥哥打电话对你说“弟弟，以后你要考上军校，来接我的班。”“好！”你兴奋地答应了。

从那时候起，你比平时更努力地学习，为的是争取读军校的名额。到了中考，你以加倍的努力去复习，考上了好高中。最后的三年，你拼命加油，因为你知道，考上了军校，你就能参军。

后来，你终于考上了军校，去了军营，完成了心中梦想的目标。当然，你是一个有进取心的人，到了军营，你又有了新的梦想：当一名射击技术很高的神枪手。

你是否想起以前同学们说你很瘦小，还当兵？但是，你现在已经成了一名威猛的军人，身穿迷彩服，头戴军帽，背上带着一把巴雷特轻50。

你敬一个军礼。就一个字可以形容——酷！

希望你苦练本领，守卫好祖国的边疆。

祝：越吃越胖！

你还好吗?我不能估计你在看到这封信时，你有多大了?是有老公陪在身边?还是独自一人在小小的教师宿舍楼里备课、学习。但是我以成过去了，当你在看到这封信，就当是在自己的心里留下一点回忆。

我在20__年5月6号给在未来的我写这封信，只是想证实你在未来是否快乐、是否幸福，如果在未来看到这封信，肯定很高兴。因为那时我很年轻。

未来的我，应该是一名优秀的语文教师吧!有亲和力、温柔又严谨、和孩子们相处的很不错吧!

未来的.我，是个很孝顺的娃，让爸爸妈妈和我一起住，或者带着爸妈到一些景点游玩，如果自己有能力，找一些轻松的活儿，让爸妈做。这也不会让他们在我家呆不下去。还有弟弟，应该是一个懂事的大学生了吧，虽然现在很调皮懒惰，但是我坚信他会改变的。

未来的我，还是一个好老婆吧，体贴、平等、理解自己的老公，又有一个幸福稳定的家。

未来的我，是一个好媳妇吧，忍让、懂事、关心爸妈，成为家中的顶梁柱。

未来的我，是一个人缘极好的人吧，和同事、朋友相处的极好，善于帮助别人，对待朋友真诚、热情。善于与朋友沟通自己的问题和分享快乐。

总之，未来的我是一个优秀、大胆的年轻人。

未来的自己:

你好

当时间迈着一成不变的脚步不疾不缓地走着;走过一个个春夏秋冬,走过一个个月晴圆缺;当年龄成为光阴流逝的证据;当青春和美貌都成为历史之后.未来的你,披满阳光坐在昨天的回忆里,咀嚼面上每一条邹纹所深藏的故事,该是一种怎样的心境呢?这时的你,读着这封从遥远的过去发来的信,又是一种怎样的心情呢?

人们总是说:时间会改变所有的一切，包括那些年少无知的轻狂、骄傲与自满。那时的你，是否已经被生活的无奈磨平了棱角，不复当年的骄傲？是否已经让生活的忙碌占据了时光，日复一日?是否已经对未来的生活完全失去了方向，感觉茫然？我不知道，未来的我会是什么样子，但我想，我可以给你写一封信，一些建议。

未来的你，不需要太过富贵的生活，但请一定要生活得，幸福、快乐。每天把微笑带出门，然后把微笑带回家，就是对家人最好的回报；不需要像一个女强人一样，但请一定要学会如何去坚强。那时的你，已经长大成人，要学会不让家人再为你担心；不需要羡慕别人有多好，但请一定要学会满足。要回头看看你身后一直守护你的那个人，说不定，也许他就是你的幸福呢；可以没有多高的学历，但请一定要有一技之长。丰富自己的生活，不要让自己无所事事。至少，有一份正经的工作，不需要多好，有一份稳定的收入，能养活自己，不要当一个啃老族。不管去到多远的地方，都不要忘记：家是你的避风港。你还要常回家看看，看看你已经年迈的父母，不要让他们担心。

未来的你，不必太怀恋以前的时光，要知道，珍惜眼前才是至关重要的，回忆终究是过去，再怀恋也无法让时光倒流，再怀恋也无法回到从前。我知道，你很看重感情，也更怕失去。但是，是你的终究还是你的，不是你的强求不来。

你还要记住，遇事要冷静，冲动是魔鬼。挫折并不是生活的全部，相反，生活因为有挫折而更精彩，没有经历过痛苦又怎么能感觉到幸福。每一天都是不一样的，每一天经历的事都不同，感受也不同。

也许你会怪这时的我说这太遥远，但那一天始终会来到。我只是想：为自己做好准备，当自己迷茫无措时，不知道可以做些什么的时候，能有一个依靠，仅此而已。

现在的我，一无所有，但我会努力向着自己的目标前进。不管有多艰辛，始终不放弃！现在的我正在向着未来的你跑去，未来的你，经过了风雨的洗礼，一定很美丽！

祝：身体健康，长命百岁

你的过去：许x

[写给未来的自己的一封信的作文

In my heart, my father is a great man, he wakes up early and goes to work,

in the event, he goes home late. He is working so hard, all he does is for the

family and to support my education. Once I ask him if he is tired, he smiles and

says that I am his sweet burden. I feel so moved, his love for me is so

deep.

在我心里，我的爸爸是个伟大的人，他很早就起来上班，在晚上，他很晚才回家。他一直都很努力工作，他所做的一切都是为了家庭和支持我的教育。曾经我问他是否感到很累，他对我微笑，说我是他甜蜜的负担。我很感动，他对我的爱是如此的深。

20__年的自己：

你好!

知道我是谁吗?呵呵，我是20__年的你!

还记得吗?小时的你有丰富的想象力，你还编过一首歌，叫《全家喜洋洋》，但你害羞，在学校里不敢唱，在家不仅自己唱，还带着弟弟一起唱。还记得歌词吗?让我带你回顾一下吧：我爱帅哥，帅哥是我爸。我爱美女，美女是我妈……事情还没完，我们家就因为这首好笑的歌，爸爸不叫爸爸，叫帅哥,妈妈不叫妈妈，叫美女。而父母这个名称就被我们抛到九霄云外了，变成“美帅”。有时美帅会吵架，你还把这称之为“美帅口水战”,这百分之八十是由我们和弟弟引发的。哈哈，想到就笑得肚子疼。

我的好奇心是按捺不住的。你长什么样?闭上眼睛，想象你的模样：一头乌黑的长发，嫩白的脸蛋上一双忽闪忽闪的眼睛炯炯有神地望着一切，一双腿不由自主地交叉在一起……现实的你是这样吗?对了，你小时候的想进美国哈佛大学读书，有没有进去?

在这里，我想问候一下你的家人：美帅身体怎么样?家里有没有发生“美帅口水战”?你有没有好好地照顾他们?你要告诉他们，吵架对身体不好。弟弟学习怎么样?算下来，他应该读初一了吧。咦，怎么好像你是算命师，我请你预测我家未来的一切呀!

对了，今天是20__年的国庆节，不知道20__年的国庆节有没有改过，如果改过，那改成了哪一天?

祝：

顺顺利利，健健康康!开开心心!

你的童年：___

20__年_月_日

你好啊！

当你看到这封信时，你现在可能考完了大学，找到了一个好的工作，亦或许，现在你现在已经有了温柔的妻子，可爱的孩子，美好的家庭。

还记得你小时候的理想吗？不管什么时候你都想当一名科学家，你做到了吗？说到科学家，很多人肯定会问为什么要当科学家吗？就让我来告诉你们吧，因为科学家可以发明数不胜数、千奇百怪的东西，能让我们的科技日新月异，能让我们的生活变的更加美好。

我记得，你想让川流不息的汽车在无尽的天空中自由翱翔，以免堵车；你想发明海、陆、空地铁，可以到海洋中去发现鱼儿的奥妙；你还要发明学校未来的黑板，只要按下相应的按钮，黑板就会把屏幕上的字全部吸收，并变成一支新的粉笔，如果觉得写字太慢了，那就按一下声音感应按钮，然后说出要写的内容，他就会出现在黑板上，速度非常快。

光阴似箭，白驹过隙，二十年一眨眼就过去了，你感到时间是那么宝贝了吗？记住时光老人是公平公正的，谁也不能够多得一秒，世界上只有时间不可再来。你想要成为科学家，就要不懈的努力，要好好读书，因为“功夫不负有心人” 、“只有功夫深，铁杵磨成针。”在你努力成为科学家的过程中，你会碰到这样那样的困难，我都希望你用微笑面对这个世界。

祝身体健康，万事如意！

20年前的你

亲爱的自己：

你好!

当你收到这封信时一定很惊喜吧，这时候的你是正处于人生的巅峰?还是正处在人生的低谷呢?无论怎么样，我都希望你微笑地面对每一天。

你还记得11岁时的你吗?有着一张肉嘟嘟的红苹果似的小脸蛋，戴着牙套，是个害羞的女孩。未来的自己，我很好奇你长成了什么样子，一定是亭亭玉立气质非凡吧!

不知道你还记不记得当时的你还是一个爱哭鼻子的小学霸呢!但是童年的你有个不好的小缺点，就是做题不仔细。现在的你一定改掉了这个坏习惯，变得更优秀了吧?

其实吧，小时候的你还非常善良，愿意帮助任何人。有一次你在路边捡到了一只受伤的麻雀，还带回家包扎了一下。不过，它不一会儿就死了，当时你哭得都快把房顶掀翻了，难过得要命。晚上你还帮它做了一个墓碑。亲爱的，这些你都还记得吗?希望你永远善良。

看到这封信的你，也许是个大姑娘了，也许你现在正坐在100层的高楼里，舒适地躺在沙发上，机器人在旁为你磨着咖啡。也许正处青春期，也可能已经到了暮年，但是我要说不管过了多久，我都永远爱你。

每天下班后的你是不是仍然忙着工作，一刻也不休息，不给自己留一点自由时间?但是我想说，你应该给自己更多的时间做一些有意义的事情，多陪陪家人，多运动，让身体更加健康。

亲爱的自己，无论怎样我都永远爱你。

11岁的你

I am going to have a busy weekend ! On Saturday , Im going to clean my

room and do homework. Then , in the evening , I m going to the supermaket with

my mother . On Saturday, Im going to the bookstore on foot . Im going to buy

some books. Then, Im going to go home and read the new books. In the evening ,

Im going to watch TV. That will be fun! What about you? What are you going to

do on the weekend?

亲爱的未来的自己：

很高兴能够与你谈话！虽然不曾与你见面，但也可以想象得出你那么帅气模样呢！嘻嘻，是不是有点受不了我呢？

我总是对你充满了幻想。每当我坐在璀璨的星空下，那些闪烁的群星总会依稀显现出你的样子。一对炯炯有神的大眼睛，一个小鼻梁上架着重重的眼镜，一副博览群书的样子。活泼而又开朗，聪明而又玲利，喜欢画画、唱歌。和我一模一样呢。哈哈，谁让你是未来的我呢？

现在的我，总是调皮捣蛋，经常骄傲，而未来的我不像现在的我这样老想着不劳而获，把所有的精力都放在了学习上，一份耕耘，一份收获。未来的我经常做一些卷子来提升自己的智商和能力。还能发现错误，找到犯错的原因，下次不再犯同样的错误。未来的我，是个谦虚好学、踏踏实实地往前走的人。

未来的你，经过不懈努力，一定会考入牛津大学吧！因为牛津大学是我的目标，也是国际名校，况且爸爸妈妈也希望我考入牛津。如果考不上，也一定会考入清华、北大的，因为我相信，只要付出了，就会有收获的。

大学毕业后，未来的你一定掌握了许多知识吧，现在轮到为祖国做贡献了，也许你会当一位人名教师吧？到了那时，你一定会把自己所有的知识传授给那些可爱的孩子们吧？让他们长大后在继续为祖国做贡献。也许你会当一名科学家，发明出许多对国家有利的东西。

在不久的将来，我将与你合二为一。我知道，只有现在奋发图强，努力拼搏，才能让你的生活更加美好。今天的学习质量决定着明天的生活质量，所以，请为我加油吧！

此致

敬礼

现在的你：xx

致20__年我：

20__年秋天的一个下午，我沉思着该如和向你倾诉埋藏在我心底的话语。想像着八年后的你一定长得文质彬彬、沉着冷静吧!

20__年秋天的同一个下午，你一定猜不到我正在给你写信呢!八年后是个什么样的一个世界呢?八年后你一定是一个成熟的男子汉了，那时你已经上大学了吧!可是以我现在的成绩足够让你顺利考上大学吗?我想当然不能。但从现在开始，我会非常地努力，因为我想要我的家人过上幸福快乐的日子。我盼望着你能够迈入大学的门坎，成为一名大学生。妈妈身体还好吗?妈妈那双灵巧的手早已长满了茧吧!爷爷奶奶那副劳累的身体没事吧!他们的脸上都布满了岁月曾留下的痕迹。你一定要好好的照顾妈妈，因为现在的我太调皮了，总是惹得他们生气。你要记得给妹妹辅导多教教她，因为我并有当好她的哥哥。你要常常回家看望年迈的爷爷奶奶，我特别担心爷爷奶奶的身体。爷爷要是有大病，他决不会说出来的，宁愿忍着病痛。因为他不想成为家里的负担，不愿花掉那么多的钱。爷爷曾说过他的愿望是看到全家人幸福的生活。

你是一个化梦想为行动的人，想做之事，常不迟疑地马上去做，深怕今天不做，明天便不再有机会做。人生苦短，珍惜是你的人生哲学，每一分每一秒都是珍贵的。你希望活得有价值、过得有尊严、给得很满足。你曾尝试苦人所苦、悲人所悲，为的就是发自内心去帮助别人。你希望周遭有更多人能发自内心跟你做同样的一件事，只是，人有分别，你只能用行动去感染别人，非你一己之力所能及。

最后，希望你能更爱自己，照顾自己，有了健康，你的世界才是完美，梦想才能实现，人格才能完整。

为了我们共同的目标一起努力吧

此致

敬礼

My Darling McGeorge

You said that things seemed clearer when they were written down. Well, here

with a very boring letter in which I will try to put everything down so that you

may read and re-read it at a horror at your folly in getting involved with

me.

Deep breath. To begin with ,I love you. With a depth and passion and I have

felt for no one else in this life. And if it is astonishes you, it astonished me

as well. Not, I hasten to say, because you are not worth loving. Far from it.

Its just that, first of all,I swore I would not get involved with another

woman. Secondly, I have never had such a feeling before and it is almost

frightening. Thirdly, I would never have thought it possible that another human

being could occupy my waking and sleeping thoughts to the exclusion of almost

everything else. Fourthly, I never thought that even if one was in love one

could get so completely besotted with another person so that a minute away from

them felt like a thousand years. Fifthly, I never hoped,aspired, dreamed that

one can find everything one wanted in one person.

I was not such an idiot as to believe this was possible. Yet in you I have

found everything I want: youre beautiful, gay, giving, gentle, idiotically and

deliciously feminine, sexy, wonderfully intelligent and wonderfully silly as

well. I want nothing else in this life than to be with you, to listen and watch

you, your beautiful voice, your beauty, to argue with you, to laugh with you, to

show you things, to share things with you, to explore your magnificent mind, to

explore your wonderful body, to help you, protect you, serve you ,and...bash you

on the head when I think you are wrong...

Not to put too fine a point on it, I consider that I am the only man

outside mythology to have found crock of gold at the rainbows end. But, having

said all that, let us consider things in details. Dont let this become public,

but, well...I have one or two faults. Minor ones,I hasten to say. For example I

am inclined to be overbearing. I do it for the best possible motives, all

tyrants say that, but I do tend, without thinking, to treat people underfoot.

You must tell me when Im doing it to you, my sweet, because it can be a very

bad thing in a marriage.

Right, the second blemish. This actually is not so much a blemish of

character as a blemish of circumstance. Darling, I want you to be you on your

own right, and I will do everything I can to help you in this. But you must take

into consideration that I am also me in my own right. And that I have a head

start on you. What Im trying to say is that you must not feel offended if you

are sometimes treated simply as my wife. Always remember that what you lose on

the swings you gain on the roundabouts. But i am an established ‘creature’ in

the world, and so on occasions you will have to live in my shadow. Nothing gives

me less pressure than this. But it is a fact of life that has to be faced.

Third, a very important and nasty, blemish. Jealousy. I dont think you

know what jealousy is, thank god, in the real sense of the word. I know that you

have felt jealousy over Lincolns wife and child, but this is what I call normal

jealousy, and this to my regret, is not what Ive got. What I have got is a

black monster and any goodness that I have in my make-up. It is really a Jekyll

and Hyde situation... my Hyde is stronger than my good sense and defeats me,

hard though I try. As I told you, I have always known that this lurks within me,

but I could control it, and my monster slumbered and nothing happened to awake

it. Then I met you and I felt my monster stir and become half-awake when you

told me of Lincoln and others you have known, would you like to end with your

letter my monster came out of its lair, black, irrational, bigoted, stupid,

evil, malevolent. You never know how terribly corrosive jealousy is; It is a

physical pain as though you have swallowed acid or red hot coals. It is the most

terrible of feelings. But you cant help it at least I cant and god knows Ive

tried. I dont want any ex-boyfriends sitting in church when I marry you. On our

wedding day I want nothing but happiness both for you and me, but I know I wont

be happy if there is a church full of your ex-conquests. When I marry you I will

have no past, only a future. I dont want to drag my past into our future and I

dont want you to do it, either. Remember I am jealous of you because I love

you. You are never jealous of something you dont care about.

Okay enough about jealousy. Now let me tell you something. I have seen a

thousand sunsets and sunrises, in a thousand sunsets and sunrises on land where

it floods forest mountains with honey-coloured light, at sea where it rises and

sets like a blood orange in a multi-coloured nest of cloud, slipping in and out

of the vast ocean. I have seen thousand moons. Harvest moon is like gold coins,

winter moons as white as ice chips, new moons like baby swans feathers. I have

seen seas as smooth as if painted, coloured like shot silk or blues as a

kingfisher or transparent as glass or black and crumpled with foam, moving

ponderously and murderously. I have felt winds straight from the south pole,

bleak and wailing like a lost child; Winds as tender and warm as a lovers

breath; Winds that carried the astringent smell of salt and the death of

seaweeds; Winds during the moist rich smell of a forest floor, the smell of a

million flowers. Fierce winds that churned and moved the sea like yeast, or

winds that made the waters lap at the shore like a kitten. Ive known silence:

the cold, earthy silence at the bottom of a newly dug well; The implacable stony

silence of a deep cave; The hot, drugged midday silence when everything is

everything is hypnotized and still moved into silence by the eye of the sun. The

silence when great music ends. Ive heard that summer cicadas cry so that the

sound seems stitched into your bones. Ive heard a tree frogs in an

orchestration as complicated as Bach singing in a forest lit by a million

emerald fireflies. Ive heard the Keas calling over the grey glaciers that

groaned to themselves like old people as they inched. Their way to the sea. Ive

heard the hoarse street vendor cries of the mating Fur seals as they sang to

their sleek golden wives, the crisp staccato admonishment of the rattlesnake,

make the cobweb squeak of the Bat and the belling roar of the red deer knee-deep

in purple heather. Ive heard wolves baying at a winters moon, read howlers

making the forest vibrate with their roaring cries. Ive heard the squeak, purr

and grunt of a hundred multi-coloured reef fishes. I’ve seen hamming birds

flashing like opals round a tree of scarlets blooms, humming like a top. I have

seen flying fish skittering like quicksilver across the blue waves, drawing

silver lines on the surface with their tails. Ive seen Spoonbills flying home

to roost like a scarlet banner crossed the sky. Ive seen Whales, black as tar,

cushioned on a cornflower blue sea,creating a Versailles of fountain with their

breath. I have watched butterflies emerge and sit, trembling, while the sun

irons their wings smooth. I watch tigers, like flames, mating in the long grass.

I have been dive -bombed by an angry Raven, black and glossy as the Devils

hoof. Ive lain in water warm as milk, soft as silk, while around me played a

host of Dolphins. I have met a thousand animals and see a thousand wonderful

things.

All this I did without you. This was my loss. All this I want to do with

you. This will be my gain. All this I would gladly have forgone for the sake of

one minute of your company, for your love, your voice, your eyes, hair, lips,

body, and above all for your sweet, ever surprising mind which is an enchanting

quarry, in which it is my privilege to delve.

Dear laura:

I was truly eaptured beyond expression to receive your flowers which turned

our living room into a garden. How considerate and wonderful of you to remember

my birthday. You just couldnt have selected anything i had have liked more! You

have a positive genius for selecting the right gift! The four years i spent with

you at the college have been the pleasantest period in my life. I will cherish

this memory forever. how nice it would be to see you again.

More than kind, and i wont ever forget it. my love and deepest gratitude,

now and always!

sincerely yours,

Jane
