Dear Stranger

Dear Stranger,

Or should I say, "Dear Self."

I would like to apologize. I don't really know where to start, but I'll start with I'm sorry. I'm sorry for not believing in you. I'm sorry for losing sight of your natural ability to think deeply. Your thoughts are powerful, and I don't always give you enough credit for them. I'm sorry for losing sight of your natural talents, as well as not utilizing them. I'm sorry for preventing you from thriving. Self sabotage is just my way of preventing you from leaving your comfort zone, but I know that's not okay. I'm sorry.

I'm also sorry for not giving you the time and space you needed to realize all of

this. I realize it now, though. I'm sorry for not encouraging you to write recently. I shouldn't be taking away one of your healthiest habits. I'm sorry for making you feel lonely, rather than at peace when you are alone. I'm sorry for any negativity I may have caused you lately. You deserve everything you are capable of.
