Do you want to say something to yourself in the future?


Jeremy is a filmmaker living in Portland, United States. Before the age of 32, it has been unknown, and no famous works have appeared.

However, Jeremy likes to record his life with a video camera since he was a child. At the age of 12, he recorded a monologue for himself in the future with a home video recorder. Twenty years later, he turned over the video and looked at his own questions about the future. He couldn't help but feel a thousand emotions. So he answered all the questions, added 20 years of photos and another monologue, and edited a unique video, as if he was talking to himself 20 years ago.

Twenty years ago, Jeremiah asked three questions about the future: First, is the pet dog still alive? Second, is the toy preserved? Third, do you still draw a roy rabbit now?

Regrettably, the puppies that Jeremiah has been getting along with have long since died, and the toys that I once loved have long since disappeared. The most fascinating thing is that Jeremy was surprised that he had painted such a romantic cartoon rabbit. For the third question, Jeremy gave the answer 20 years later: no painting. At this time, he remembered that he had painted a series of comic characters and dreamed of becoming a cartoonist, but later he became more and more lazy and ran to make a movie.

Jeremy immediately caused a sensation after uploading this conversation, which seemed to travel through time and space, to a video sharing website. People are attracted by novel ideas, with more than 1.6 million video hits in 24 hours. Jeremy's three questions and answers about the future touched the childhood memories that everyone had seen in the heart, and the helplessness of the passing of time, which caused many people to ponder.

Some people say that Jeremy is very different. Some people say that Jeremy is very nostalgic. Some people say that Jeremy is very funny. Others say that Jeremy is a hype.

However, I think Jeremy is doing a psychic massage. An eccentric child of an elf has become a sophisticated man with vicissitudes of life, and his childhood dreams have not been realized. I struggled very hard, but I was still a small person. The beautiful future is still far away, and the changes in the world make people feel at a loss. This is the real life.

Everyone is alive for the future, but how many people still remember the original dream? How many people lost their way in the process of advancement? If Jeremy has always insisted on his childhood dreams, he may have become a cartoonist. Fortunately, Jeremy still likes photography and still uses his camcorder to record his life. If Jeremy is working hard in film production in the future, I believe he will become a world-renowned filmmaker.

The regrets of the future often come from weaknesses in the current human nature, or laziness, or greed, or jealousy, and so on. We need to stop for a moment, take a look at the dreams that have been or are not pursued, and then try to overcome our weaknesses, do what we want to do, and work hard for the future. In this way, after many years, even if we are not standing at the peak of our dreams, we will at least be delighted to pursue ourselves with perseverance and not regret for the future.
