This is an assignment for my English Composition class. The assignment was to write a letter
to our author self. I read A Fable For Living, a story between two people and their relationship. This letter is meant to forge a relationship with our author self and carry it into the future. Dear Unknown, I know we are the same person but we are complete strangers to each other. We never connected and I distanced myself from you for years. You were someone who I thought to be useless and someone I thought I had disposed of. To put it bluntly it's as if you were a toy I got for my birthday that I never liked, So I put you in the basement never to be seen again. I truly do apologize for that. You were most likely the only one that understood what I thought and felt my struggles in life but all I did was discard you. I truly felt that you weren’t needed in life in order to succeed but, I admit I was wrong. If only I was to connect to you sooner maybe life would have been easier to manage. Maybe the pain I felt would've been easier to manage if I established that bond sooner. It doesn’t matter anymore though, that all changes this semester we must establish our bond. I have a three step plan to keep in touch on a consistent basis. First would be to find a way to connect with you. Maybe seeing what type of writing we like and are comfortable with before expanding to other things. The next step is to take my english compassion class seriously and have fun with it. I want to strengthen our bond and If I take my english composition class seriously I know it will constantly keep us in contact and strengthen our relationship. Finally I will be more open and try to write down about important things going on in the world and my life. I feel as this is important to not only establish our bond but also it will teach me on how to continue it past this semester. Alot of things go on in my life and I feel this will help me vent and understand what I'm feeling. That’s my three step plan that I believe will work in keeping us in contact on a consistent basis for not only the rest of the semester but also for the rest of my life. I look forward to what the future has for us. Sincerely, Erik
