Writing Letters to Miinky

tuesday_morningThis week, I went out and bought myself a composition notebook with a cute hand-sewn cover from a small store in town. It looks bright and full of life, so I thought it would make a wonderful book for me to begin writing letters to Miinky (with "Miinky" being a placeholder for my legal name). Something about writing letters to her is cathartic and healing. I write personal letters to Miinky and add song lyrics to other pages in the notebook as well. It's a book in memory of her that focuses on where I'm currently at as well as where I've been.
It might sound a bit silly, but sometimes I imagine that I'm able to retroactively send my words of encouragement and support to the Miinky of the past, as if to help comfort and heal her in a way that I wish someone could have back then. I wish that I could go back in time as a double of myself and hug Miinky, letting her know that she's going to live and that it's all going to be alright. But then, that's what the notebook I got is for.
I hope she knows that I love her dearly.
