Casual Self-Growth #1: My U-CAN box is still trapping the future

While I was cleaning,
I found the cardboard box for the U-CAN 'Ballpoint Pen Writing Course' that I signed up for a few years ago.

……Yes, I hadn't even opened it.
The packing tape was still perfectly taut, a thing where time had stopped since the day it arrived.

In that moment, the past version of me was looking smug in my head.

“I thought it would be nice to be able to write beautifully♡”

……Yeah, it ended with that “thought♡”.

On the day I signed up, I must have been imagining myself writing beautiful characters in a stylish notebook.
But in reality, the box that arrived
just “became a time capsule of motivation.” That said, the fact that I haven't opened the box also means that the “future me” is still in there.

(At least my positive reframing skills are growing steadily.)
I thought about opening it for a second, but

if I opened it now, I felt like I’d make eye contact with “the me who still had motivation,”
so I felt a bit awkward and stopped.


“I’m the type who saves motivation without opening it.” I feel like I could write that on a business card. For now, I’ll just put it back gently and resume cleaning.

I’ll have the future me reunite with it during the next big cleaning.

Conclusion:
As long as you don't open the U-CAN box,
it remains a bundle of possibilities.
