As I embark on a new phase in my life, I think it's only natural to reflect on the things that have transpired in the phases previous.
If there's one obvious thing I can pull from this time of introspection it is that God is pretty good to me and if there's one thing He's blessed me with in overwhelming abundance it's quality people in my life. Even in an environment where the "average" person in my life is anything but, something about you stood out to me. You possess some inherent, intangible quality that cast a glimmer I couldn't ignore, that I had to do something about.
You've all been so complex and special and wonderful and I just wanted to say, "Thanks."
Thank you for sharing your time with me. For making me laugh. For teaching me something about myself. For making me want to be interested in the things that are important to you, just because they were important you. For making me want to be a better version of myself.
It is my most sincere hope that I was able show you not only that I understood how very special you are, but how important and special you were to me specifically.
I also hope that that you continue to grow into the woman that God intends for you to be for the Godly man you so richly deserve.
Even if it's not me.
Fondly,
Dave

Aw, how sweet! I wish *I* had dated you!
Wait...
Is there any way to say that so it doesn't sound awkward and creepy? Uh, probably not. I take it back. But you're still awesome.
wow, i was thinking more like "heartless bitch who never called you back" but i like your description much better.
Jeni:
No harm done. Creepy, but sweet. Ha! Just kidding, I appreciate the sentiment.
Anon:
Well... *she* might not get the letter.... haha! Who are you?! (you can just email me if you like)
Who am I? The "heartless bitch that never called you back".
No way! Crazy! Can you believe that was two years ago?
It did take me a while to realize that you just weren't ever gonna call me. I kept looking for your picture to show up on the back of a milk carton.
In any event, yes, you still get the letter.
I sincerely hope that you love your life.

I actually had pnemonia (ugh sp?) and I had bruised lungs and had to get hospitalized for a couple months. I was going to have my mom call you but you left me a mean message on my cell phone haha, and I was stubborn and didn't call you back.
I can't believe you remember me.
Oh, and I thought, how terrible is it going to sound if I say, "yeah, i was sick, sorry", but I really was...
I am sincerely sorry. You were amazing, made me laugh like no other, and I wish you the best in life and love and I am glad to see you are still growing.
