Dear best friend,

Good morning, or good afternoon, which I know it’s afternoon for you.

I wrote this piece on my Jewish identity and generational trauma I hope when you’re free to read it, you enjoy it. I miss our collaborations; I really miss reading your work and your stories. I’m getting so damn sick of this.

I am so close to the end, it’s like a crazy nightmare finally coming to an end.

Thank you for everything you’ve done and continue to do.

Everything you’ve seen and the last thing you commented on, was real. I must write a tell-all about my experiences so others don’t make the same mistakes of staying in this dark Raven catastrophe of a sick relationship that I’ve had to endure for way too long. It’s expiration date was so long ago, and carting along a decaying and rotting corpse of a relationship is utterly insane and exhausting.

I wish you only the best and happy thoughts.

Love, your best friend

    Glad you got that off your chest. It is freeing to dish the dirt and get it over with. A load is lifted and frees he spirit.
