            This following document has been reviewed by ENUF Time Travel Intelligence  Section and has been approved to send back to Surabaya, Indonesia 12:12 PM (GMT +07:00), Tuesday, February 9, 2016 into Mr. Ardhika Setyo’s email account. All user who give information refers to gambling, business-related prophecy or anything that caused a major time paradox will be punished under the law of United Nation Time Department.

Hai, hello there my young me. Well, it is really  awkward to call my self. Maybe there are lot of confusion in your head right now. Sadly I cannot tell you all the details, because it strictly controlled by government. but all I can tell you is this : I am you, I am the future of you. Alright… alright, like what I have said earlier, I know there would be lot of confusion and it’s okay. Well anyway, if I’m doing the math correctly, this year must be 2016 right? (I hope I’m right because like we both know, we never have been good at math) Great scott!! 2016!! I can’t believe that time flies so quickly, it hell a lot years way back there!! What’s the hip back then? Overhyped EDM music, Star Wars saga, Pokemon GO? I really miss those old days! If I’m not mistaken you will be turn 23 this year and this year also your last time in uni. Ah yes, college year. Time when I learn about a lot of things for life. Lots of great memories, but also lots of the bad ones too. But that is the inevitable part of growing up. Just don’t give up kid! If not because of your struggling back then, I will not become the person as I am right now. Anyway, as you can see in the header, I now live in the Eastern Nations United Federation, a peaceful combination of all the countries in the eastern hemisphere. After a long time, finally human can learn how to live in peace. There are lot of things has changed in this world since couple decades ago. I remember back then in 2016, Indonesia is a shitty country with a lot of problems. But looking back from now, before the merger of countries into ENUF, the economic growth in Indonesia has grown rapidly and has become one major country with powerful economic power. one of many reason why that happened is because many of us, our generation has become leader for this nation. We’ve succeed overcome our own stigma about the old depressing Indonesia, and transform it into more optimistic point of view. Of course it’s not happen overnight to achieve into that state. But now I’m here, from the future, telling you this : yes you can, the future of this nation is belong to your generation, a young optimistic generation. I wish I could tell you how things going to happen, but it would be against the law. As the time goes by, since more and more people are educated,  tolerance is no longer luxury a few people have. People can be more accepted about diversity as the way as it is. That is how the beginning of the unity of nations.

It took a long time for people to realize but eventually at the end of 20XX The Finland’s nation curriculum has spread throughout the world and has become the standard for education for both ENUF & WNUF. And few years later, ILO make a breakthrough by adopting Danish flexicurity as standard model for worker & labor. Technology is also growing rapidly. No we haven’t flying car yet like what people think about the future in your day. But nowadays car is no longer damaging the environment. The early development of water-fueled car has become so significant for the future since public policies are strictly prohibited the usage of fossil fuel. I’m not an expert on this, but since the incident of Amsterdam’s flood and the downfall of Kellogs, government has commit to decrease the usage of fossil fuel to prevent the rise of global degree more further. In a nutshell, the world I live in now is more humanized and more ecological friendlier than yours. Most of this innovation has been discovered during your era, you live in the pivotal moment in humanity’s development. You and your generation has a power to decide whether this world will be better or worst.

            Well, enough for the world now let’s talk about us. Anyway, I’m doing great with my life right now, having family with a beautiful wife and great kids. I also still doing things I love when I was young; traveling, writing, video games and eating junk food. Talking about video games, this industry became so huge nowadays. The rise of  virtual reality offering a broad new experience for gamers. Last year my wife and I attend the 24th e-sport olimpiade and festival in Tokyo. It was so much fun. It’s funny when I remember back then in my youth days I used to be constantly worrying about lot of stuff. Just keep doing things you believe in kid, and focus on what happen in the present moment and believe me, everything eventually is going to be fine. Of course there would be lot of ups and downs in life, but it’s life and that is how’s life supposed to be right? Oh yeah, I forgot to mention about our wife! all I can tell she’s the most fascinating human being you’ll ever meet. Who’s her? You have to figure it out by yourself! It would be not fair if I tell you right away. But I can assure you, when the time you meet her, you’ll know. Oh boy, I wish I have more time to talk about a lot of things about ourselves, but up until now, time traveling can only send back a little amount of matter & energy. Maybe that’s that my young me, take care there in 2016. Hope you do good!

Carpe Diem




I’m a horse, i’m a stallion ; Let me lost in the woods where there is no path to choose
I’m a tiny speck of dust in universe, float endlessly in the uncertainty of galaxy
carried away by the stream of unknown river. until later, when mere mortal can no longer remember

how can you measure forever?
Later on it would be nothing but oblivion
.
I’m an eagle, zizzle dizzel
Fly aimlessly in the vast of endless wild blue yonder
That makes you wonder
The reason of existence only for gold and silver?
I’m a thinker, so let me wander
Until later when mere mortal can no longer remember ; Carpe diem.

until one

Eternity


Later.
