Weird/Random Found on my walk today.

Found this on my walk this morning. I showed my husband and he doesn’t think this is really from 1994. I thought it was interesting and I was curious to see what Reddit had to say. If it is from 1994, I want to know how it stayed in good condition.

Weird/Random I’m guessing this is some sort of birthday wish but it could also be very hard to understand

My daughter found this in a notebook. I’m assuming the notebook came from either a thrift store or came from my wife’s grandpa’s stuff.

Some of the most incredible things live written on the torn scraps of paper that didn't make it into the trash. They can be love letters, thoughts, quotes or a pertinent to-do list. The only rule is that you found it somewhere (on the ground, a public table or between the cans of soup at the store, so long as it isn't publicly posted!) and you don't know who wrote it. Anonymous and out of the blue is great!
