If I were to write a letter today it would probably start with hello.
This letter would somehow be different from all the other letters I have written or will ever write. It will begin with the usual plesantries, and ask the normal questions. An attempt to rekindle a friendship that never was... for it was passed up for the promise of something else. That something else lasted for only a fleeting moment when measured against a life time, but yet that small and seemingly insignificant amount of time can change a person.
Next would come the updates. School, work, family, roomates, and any other adventure that could be considered even slightly entertaining. Humor can really be the best medicine. An attempt at "normal" whatever that is.
When composing a letter such as this, it will be the closing that takes the longest. Carefully thought out words that tie it into a neat little package. The address, a stamp, or in this case probably the send button. In any case the question is, will I ever be brave enough to follow through.
