Dear Self,
I don't consider you a bad person by any means. I know you've done things in your past that you're not proud of that you've carried throughout the years. There's one instance that you can't seem to get over. It was 7th grade in Science class with a girl named Sharley Lloyd. Just thinking about it makes me angry. I can't believe you tortured that girl about the warts on her hands to the point you made her run out of the room crying. How dare you pick on someone and their insecurities that didn't deserve it. I feel horrible that you hurt her feelings so bad she didn't come to school or at least that class again for a little while. I'm sure somewhere you're on her hit list for making her middle school years a living hell. I don't know why she was your target or why you even felt that you were above her to pick her apart daily. You were one of the smallest kids in 7th grade, but had an attitude of a giant. I know you've tried to find her to send an apology for what you did to her those 3 years, but it's time to forgive yourself. Stop carrying it on your shoulders. Eventually one day you will have the chance to run into her hopefully and she will accept your apology. Who knows, for all you know she doesn't even remember who you are.
Letting go,
Britnie
