The time aspect sucks I get it but the Other one - my best friend of like 10+ years went 🤡 mode when my mother died and I wrote and rewrote these letters to her that I never sent and it was helpful for me

Unsent letters

Writing letters to people that have helped or hurt you but never actually sending them. It helps me process things better and feels very therapeutic

hand written letter

This one is kind of a “no shit” because people have sent letters for like centuries but I think right now at least in America it’s seen as a novelty. it’s so hard to take true time to myself - time that isn’t work or browsing Reddit or fucking around on iPhone or playing video games but time to sitting down to hand write a letter to a dear loved one makes me consider what is true and what is rotten in my life. The “form“ of letter with like a start middle and end and meandering along the way is hard to express in other forms. Like are you gonna text your mom all that shit?

you left for bmt and I'm bitter here alone in the thick of winter and I resent picking up my pen to write you every day. but really it's a petty miracle that we no longer speak and that you have deprived me of you enough to keep me up some nights taking sleep from me when I could be smiling out cold. it's nice and cruel reverting to barely talking the way they used to have to do it. I think I'd feel more impassioned about everything in my life if I was used to getting what I wanted less. yeah it's that you couldn't even taper me off you but it's killing me not hearing a single thing. maybe once we're back to talking every day I'll think about the unserved postage stamps losing their stick somewhere flat around the art supplies. and I'll miss missing you
