Today, I sent a letter to an old friend who had moved to New York. For too long, I have been proud and silent, avoiding the real issue all together. But today, in my letter, I expressed my anger towards my friend for some past actions, and asked for forgiveness and a mending of our relationship. Sending the letter was definitely the right thing to do, but even now, I'm a bit anxious as to how the letter will be received. Maybe she'll be relieved to know why I hadn't written to her for so long. Or maybe she'll be hurt, and choose to shut me out of her life forever. But I still felt the need to reach out and heal our friendship, to know that though we are physically far apart, our hearts are still close.
