So I haven’t paid attention to this much- apologies! But there has just been so much on my plate lately and I’ve been dealing with a lot internally… so this is my attempt to finish the Letter Challenge.

Day 27: The friendliest person you knew for only one day
Dear Goldie,
You were a great fish. You were my first pet. But sadly you didn’t live very long. I watched you in the tank forever when I got you. I told you about my day and told you a few secrets. I trusted that you’d keep them and you took them to your watery grave. Thank you for being there for the short lived moments that you were.
I should have known you would have passed because you were on sale :[

Day 28: Someone that changed your life…
Dear Caitlin,
You saved my life. I don’t know if you really know that, but the things I was dealing with were larger than me in my adolescent years. The things that I wrote were true and they were how I felt. They were thoughts that ran through my mind constantly. But you made me talk to someone. You made me face those demons, even for that quick second. I don’t think I ever really told you how thankful I am that you did. And how much it really meant to me. I love you for that, even though I might have been mad at you back then.
All things aside, I owe the person that I am and the person I will become all to you. You changed my life.
You saved me.

Day 29: The person you want to tell everything to, but are too afraid to…
Dear someone,
I haven’t met you yet, but apparently I am going to want to tell you everything. I know I am going to be afraid to do so because I’ve never told anyone everything. Everything is a lot to tell someone. I don’t think I have ever confronted everything that there is to tell. But please know that when I do meet you and I do tell you everything that I will be extremely vulnerable, emotional, and bare. Please know that by me telling you everything that I am trusting you with it all and that you probably mean the world to me.
So in advance, I’m trusting you with everything. Please don’t let me down and please don’t break me or my heart.

Day 30: Your reflection in the mirror
Dear me,
I don’t like the way you look. I don’t like the way your voice sounds. But you know what? I like the person that you are. There are a lot of things I don’t like about you, but nonetheless the changes and growth that you have made are what make me proud to be the real version of you.
You have your flaws, but in those flaws comes the person that you are. You are strong-willed and extremely indecisive. You are too nice, too emotional, and too forgiving. But because you are those things you are who you are and have the people in your life that you do have. And those people are amazing.
You’ve dealt with a lot this past year. And your heart is no where close to being okay. Just know and keep telling yourself that everything will work out. You will be back to the old you. I know it’s a long journey back, but you’ll get there. You know and I know that you will—- it just takes time.
Even though I don’t like the way you look, just know that there is beauty in it all, especially in the journey.
I’ll see you around,
-aimee
