A Letter Unsent

Thought some on what we spoke of the other night; it’s inconsequential whether or not your friends, your family – hell, even your boyfriend, adore you as he does – understand what you choose. It’s your life, it is, and you’re not living it for any of them (as life is, always, the most selfish of human interests); if you are discontent with your lot you ought to step up and do something rash – you’re still young, very young, and there’s no sense being unhappy during these few years that have such potential to truly live. You CAN screw up, make bad choices, live any way you want to. It matters not whether they get it, really – life is too short to be unhappy, and one thing I can tell you is you got to be free.
Live.
