Moved On, I Really Have

Dear C,

I was looking around my email inbox and I incidentally moved the cursor towards the Stuff section and landed a click on it. The page loaded and I saw, what I did not expect myself to see. An email from you, dated 15th of September 2007. Then my memory was refreshed, all the way back to the last day of August when everything happened on that fateful day.

My life took a turn.

We argued all the time, and we ignore each other too. But in the end, we ended up being okay with it and moved on with our friendship. However, that day things changed. Forever.

We ceased to talk to each other ever since. And that issue continued to haunt me for the rest of my days up till today. When I saw that final email you sent to me, the one stating that you know that you are at fault for spreading those falsehoods about me and that you really just want things to stay the way it is. After rereading the email, after two whole years where I am able to experience other things and to grow and to mature, I have decided that I have not truly moved on from the whole incident.

So I clicked on the Delete button, and took the first step of moving on. The first move towards genuine self-healing.

I know this time, I have truly moved on.

No longer will that email haunt me. No longer will those painful memories plague my development of friendships with other people.

Trust, is something you took away from me. And with that DELETE, I got back what I needed the most.

You taught me a lot of things in life, and I hope that through you I turn out to be a better person.

I have grown today. I really have.
