Dear Violet.
It's Thursday, August 3rd 2006. Your birthday last year
The destination is 12 months, away. By the time you receive this mail, you would have already turned 22.
I would liked to say happy 21st birthday to you on 2006.
At 12, I thought that of course once I'm 16, I'll understand things much better. At 16, I thought 18 would be very different. At 18, I thought that being 21 would change everything. Now 21, I assume that when I'm 25 or 30 I'll feel like a grown-up, finally
I'm writing this message because we never know if we are going to make it another 3 minutes in our lives, let alone another 10 years. The seasons have passed once and Autumn (Fall) has come again. It was the winter of this year, of this month that I quit thinking of you, and that Im very sorry. Its going to feel weird sitting here in front of your computer reading all this stuff that is happening now, knowing that all of this will be distant memories when you get this message.
I been wanting to write a letter express my feelings. What feeling you ask? Its not those feelings more like nostalgia. I use you as a way to find my home. Right now Im afraid to return home Im always delaying it. I dont know why I just feel like if I go home people will see me different. I tried hard to find the right words to say it, but it always end up no where.
When I first met you, I felt this need to chat to you. This may sound silly but I liked the way you write in your entry. I was excited you got me motivated to think openly. The more times we chatted I was attract towards you, the more I could feel resemblances Im glad I have met you thru Xanga, even thought maybe I would have said the wrong things. I often drop by your site to see how you where. I did read your latest entry each one is always a surprise, then I do my daily things. You would always had something good to say
now I feel like a stalker or obsession , but I hope you dont see me as one.
Then what happen to your grandma affected me with mine and I wanted to cure your sorrow. At the time, I liked to believe that i did help you but I couldnt even help with my own problems. I thought if I help you, then mine would go away. I tend to run away easy without trying out the situation. There was really 2 other options to deal with real grief, deal with it quickly and say it's done, or sweep it under the rug for a time and then, finally, look at it squarely and begin the struggle. We've both suffered family tragedy, but I am not going to dwell on those times, they were hard enough for the first time. There are times that I cannot let go of the pain, because if I do I feel like Im going to forget them, I cant do that to them.
I don't know why I can't completely let go. I'm forever drowning in the past. Don't get me wrong I'm not dawdling in the past. To dawdle has a negative connotation of being inactive. I do think about the past allot, but it's proactive. I'm analyzing, trying to learn from it all. It's important to learn from your past. So don't tell me Im "stuck in the past" or I'm dawdling in the past because trust me Im not. You can say that Im over analyzing, then I can perhaps understand
This whole analogy worked and sounded allot better in my head just now, but that was over a year ago. I'm now a year older, and a year more tired. I hope that made sense? It still makes allot of sense in my head
I was dreamboy in Youtube, I was the one who wrote you that. Some how I come across you in Youtube. I didnt mean to alarm you
So, here we are, 1 years later. Friday, August 3rd 2007
From Ryan
P.S - After we stopped replying to each other some weird moments or just coincidental started to happen. Everything below happen, why did I keep track? No reason, everything that happened in the past is a prologue to now. Each one happen in my life for a reason, I didnt known the reason at the time. But now I think it was to show you how I really felt and to forget you. Because I dont want to keep on thinking of you on Xanga.
