Slapping the Past

Ever want to go back in time and slap yourself from ten years ago?

There are probably a multitude of things you’d want to tell this person and part of you may wish to just shake them until they get it. This person may even give you one of those responses,

“Yeah, I know I should, but—”

And that’s when you interrupt them and point to yourself.

“But this,” you say. “This is what you’re getting.”

Well, future you is speaking to you right now.

Is this person trying to slap you or thank you?
