This challenge couldn’t have come at a better time. I have recently surpassed my 200th mark and was contemplating making this challenge.

Something I rarely do is listen to country music because of the thought it provokes and just the other day on a road trip with my boys, the oldest just had to tune in to a country station. Now, here I sit writing a challenge that is centered around just such a country song.

This will be quite hard for a majority of you, having more life in front of you than behind, I am sure the wheels will turn and you can come up with something that you would’ve liked to have had warning of beforehand.

The title of the song is Letter to Me by Brad Paisley. (A link to video/lyrics will be provided in comments.) The gist is to write a letter to your younger self with sage advice from your “grownup” self.

And as always, a song piece (the challenge song doesn’t count because it’s country):

From Garbage
When I grow up
I’ll be stable
When I grow up
I’ll turn the tables

    Holy cow, I started writing this and it’s easily going to be at least four ficlets. Not sure if I can, or even should, do it.
    Eh, I’ll push on. I know you’ll enter my challenge, so it’s only fair that I enter yours. Just try not to get too depressed reading it.
