...If you wanted to share some kind of message with a younger version of yourself, what would you say?

[Simon's in the plaza today, hanging out by the fountain and pondering his journal. At some point he might be scribbling out a note on a loose sheet of paper.]

... A letter to your younger self? [Don't people usually write it for when they're older?]

[Voice] dawndigger December 4 2010, 06:28:56 UTC

Yes. This experiment might have given some people that kind of chance.

[Voice] tinyjasmine December 4 2010, 06:43:50 UTC

What's so different now you want to tell a tinier you?

[Voice] dawndigger December 4 2010, 06:54:12 UTC

I think it would be good way to encourage yourself, don't you?

[Voice] tinyjasmine December 4 2010, 07:02:55 UTC

I s'pose so. Adults get so different when they're older, they don't laugh as much!

[Voice] dawndigger December 4 2010, 07:07:25 UTC

So maybe some good encouragement would be to tell your younger self not to forget to laugh as they grow up.

[Voice] tinyjasmine December 4 2010, 07:18:20 UTC

Yeah! And adults also say 'no' a lot more, they don't want to believe in anything anymore.

[Voice] dawndigger December 4 2010, 07:23:57 UTC

I wouldn't say that. Plenty of adults that I know believe in lots of things for their whole lives.

[Voice] tinyjasmine December 4 2010, 07:26:00 UTC

That's good! You have to believe, especially in yourself, na?

[Voice] dawndigger December 4 2010, 07:27:57 UTC

Right. That's the most important thing you need to believe in.

[Voice] tinyjasmine December 4 2010, 07:34:24 UTC

Are you going to write that to yourself, mister?

[Voice] dawndigger December 4 2010, 07:37:59 UTC

It's a good place to start.

[Voice] tinyjasmine December 4 2010, 07:40:30 UTC

What about some of your favorite memories too? Some people don't have very good memory, and that's important! [Her older self has too much experience in this.]

[Voice] dawndigger December 4 2010, 07:55:42 UTC

I'm not sure about that. Some of the memories I have have to do with things my younger self wouldn't understand right now.

[Voice] tinyjasmine December 4 2010, 08:02:33 UTC

What would those things be, mister?

[Voice] dawndigger December 4 2010, 08:39:24 UTC

[Hm... probably nothing he should be sharing with a little girl.]

I've fought a lot of battles, and met a lot of important people over the years. But in order to become who I am now, I lost people, too. It would be hard to explain to a younger me, who hasn't gone through all that.
