I still think about the letter you asked me to write. It nags at me, even though you're gone and there's no one to give it to anymore.

It's all still there, like a movie I can watch when I want to. Which is never.

I learned from my parents to do my best to not react to negative emotions. I try to think about what has happened and find the lessons that can be learned from these difficult experiences.
