For so long, that's what I was—what I am. I studied the piano for two decades, and the thousands of dollars my parents paid to McGill amount to less than a scribble I issue forth from my second coffee of a slow morning. Art is a practice, and my great calling is to the shape of words. No greater...
Dear, best friends: going through hard times,
What do you believe the definition of a true friend is? Regardless of whether it is someone you can trust with your most private information or personal possessions, someone who would risk their life to save yours, or someone you've known your...
dear Mr. DeSantis
I have many a problem with everything about you. your stance on gender identity and sexual identity, just for an example.
this is not about that
this is about the straw that broke the camels back, Disneyworld.
politics aside (if i start, i will never...
2010-2011 was the best year of my life na hindi ko inakala until this day... Best yun kasi andun ka. I feel sorry for my 2011 self today, dahil ngayon I regret so many things. Even though I know that I am a good friend, but I was a terrible person. I wasn't nice. I don't know why I was like that...
I have felt every painful emotion there is. This time around it’s been different, betrayal, disbelief, and confusion surrounding everyone I love. I hope you read this and I mean every word, maybe you’ll even believe me for once. (Also this is my pov on this) not that any of you have asked....
Hey, you’ll never read this but oh well. It’s your birthday tomorrow and I can’t wish you a happy one. I don’t know why you believed those stupid rumours which gave me anxiety trust issues and suicidal thoughts these past two years but you did. Telling my friend was immature but so was ignoring...

However, this...
Dear UK Government,
I am writing to you today to express my concern about the prevalence of old boy's network's in politics. These networks perpetuate a culture of exclusivity and undermine the principles of meritocracy, making it difficult for new and diverse talent to break through and...
Dear Telecoms Companies,
I am writing this open letter to bring to your attention a matter of great concern that affects many of your customers - excessive and unexpected phone bills. As a trusted provider of communication services, it is imperative that you take an active role in...
Dear Mr Kubeyinji,
I have been puzzled by your use of the synod to complain about your team being 'abused' by survivors.
First and foremost, have you thought about what might drive survivors to be 'abusive'? For example years upon years of the church of England denying them justice...
Yorkshire’s economy has fantastic potential but it is being held back by an over-centralised approach.
We are asking business leaders across Yorkshire to support the One Yorkshire devolution model and encourage the main political parties of the United Kingdom to adopt this policy in their...

Olá a todos.
São 07:57 (em Belém, PA, Brasil) enquanto eu escrevo isso, e faz mais ou menos uma hora que eu recebi a triste notícia do falecimento da minha querida prima.
Foi quase um ano de luta com ela, que começou em fevereiro, com dores renais, até hoje, uma insuficiência...
Just a note of thanks that you are like you are, that you have given me two beautiful grandchildren, who I love dearly.
Thanks you for seeing me as I am now and not as I was when you were growing up.
We met at college, you were 17 and pregnant, thrown out of the catholic school you were at. I got pregnant that year and we became friends. That was in 1975.
Although I moved to Europe in 1981 we stayed friends and we visited each other quite often, phoned a lot and nowadays I am sure...
My childhood was not really nice. Didn't get beat or anything but the verbal abuse from my father was something that I though was normal. Years later, when I was a single mum with you, I did somethings better but also abused you verbally. Motherhood overwhelmed me.
Now I am almost 70 and...
At the time I did not think much about the fact that you did not ask me to come when you went wedding dress shopping. You went with your best friend.
It is only since I sometimes watch those shows about brides in the shops choosing theirs and their mum being there with tears in their eyes...
Another year has gone by and I have still not contacted you. The last time we saw each other was when Matilda started school and we all were out to lunch.
There had been a few situations that really irritated me about your attitude towards me and my life and I guess your comments on the...
An open letter to the MAN who took MY innocents,
I have spent years trying to build up enough courage to address what You put me through. The older I get the angrier I am. The more it effects me, not only me but my family. My mental health, my mothering, my ability to be vulnerable...

An old saying goes: sometimes reality surpasses fantasy. What you will read in the book "The Majorana-Pelizza Case" absolutely belongs to one of these unusual cases.
So you were the love of my daughters life. She spent every minute, it seemed like, on the phone with your and happier that I have ever seen her before in her life. You are of another ethnicity and probably thought that I wouldn't accept you with open arms. I love all people and judge people on...
What I would say to Katherine but won't ...
You do not know my husband. You do not know the very complex person he is or the relationships he has had as a child nor as an adult. You will never know all the many thoughts that go on in his mind nor experience the extreme highs and lows that...

Dear Justin Welby,
As I prepared to write this, I noticed that you have many open letters and blog posts aimed at you, a majority from victims of abuse and witnesses, asking you to stop acting out vanity stunts and bring justice to the victims of abuse in the Church of...

I hate high waisted pants...there, I said it. I think they are the most uncomfortable and unflattering style of pants a person could buy. Now, I could care less what anyone puts on their body so long as it doesn't hurt anyone, but I don't appreciate clothing companies painting everyone into a...
