This past weekend, I received a manila envelope with a letter and
photos enclosed from a man named Dre. It has been a long time since I have
received any correspondence to which I have really felt an instinctual urge to
respond back to. So I did. We shall see where this goes.
Along with that, I also heard back from one of my cousins,
Candice, who lives in Atlanta. She is on my biological father's side of the family and we
pretty much grew up together. Over the years, she has fallen off in her writing
but I know that she has other things going on. It was so great to hear from her
though. I have always felt very close to that side of my family and it really
is wonderful to hear from them.
Last, but not least, I heard from my ex Marc (no relation to the
Marc I needed to call this past weekend…). He was hired by a magazine in New
York and will be moving to Manhattan from San Francisco where he currently
lives. I am really very happy for him. I
must’ve read his letter ten times or so. It’s really good to hear that he is
doing so well and thriving in this economy. My response was short and sweet,
but warm.
That chapter of my life is certainly over but I will always wish him
the best.
