To My Friend

My dear friend,


A pleasant day to you. I hope you're having a fine day because I rarely remember you having a good one. You always seem to find something bad about everything.

I wrote this letter just to let you know how sorry I am for you. Ever since we became friends we've spent countless days talking with each other. We talked about your life, your problems and how wretched the world was to you.

As a friend I always did my best to hear you out. I listened to your every woe and discussed ways to remedy your situation. This we did almost every single day for 8 years straight.


I thought that I was getting through to you. That I was making a positive difference in your life. How wrong I was to believe that someone like me could help you change.

After such a long time you never changed your ways nor your outlook. You only pretended to be doing well. Deep down you're still as rotten as the first day I met you.


What's been eating you, man? Why can't you give yourself a break? Haven't you had enough misery to last a lifetime?


The problem with you is that you problematize everything. You always find things to rant about so people will listen to you. You rant and rant to the point that you devour your listener in the process.

I'm not a saint.
I'm just a human.
Humans can only take so much.

I'm not mad at you. I just feel bad because I was not much of a help at all. Someday you can find people who can reach out to you.

For now I think that you spend time reflecting on how to put your life in order. This time it's best that you find answers you discovered yourself. When the time comes you will be in a better position to maximize your potentials.

I better give you space. I'll always be here when you need me. You're really a great guy did you know that? You just need to believe in yourself. Always remember that I'll always be your #1 fan.

Your friend,

James
