RE: If Only! A Letter to My 21 Year Old Self
Beautiful letter... it brought tears to my eyes. This is such a powerful exercise, I don't have the guts to do it, but maybe one day..
I love that it is completely written for you and you only. No need to prove anything to anyone, hide, or give lessons.
Road trip across the States in a Beetle? I can almost hear you 2 laughing and having the time of your life. Some of my most cherished memories were had when my friends and I first started driving. It brought us a different kind of freedom, something so powerful we'd never experienced before, sheer happiness and a bond between us that seemed (and often is) unbreakable, now engraved in our minds.
what a beautiful comment @osmOsis! You're right it IS a powerful exercise, and it flowed through my consciousness for several days before I could grab it and write something down. I highly recommend doing it whether you share it or not and regardless of whether you complete it, it gave me more perspective than I anticipated.
You've captured perfectly the altogether unique magic and freedom of the roadtrip and the ever-lasting bond that results!!!
