Dear Dad,
Fuck you.
Your psychological, emotional, and verbal abuse has haunted me everyday since I last spoke to you 3 years ago. You have permanently altered how I perceive myself. I'm sorry I'm not skinny and fit. I'm sorry I get excited about eating good food. I'm sorry that you feel like I have failed you as a daughter. Though you won't admit it, I know you are thinking it.
Thank you though for letting me know how disgusted you were by my body weight. We all can't have a gymnast's body forever.
"Lose 15 pounds if you want a sweet sixteen and you can't invite black people. Wait how much do you weigh? 140? Jesus Christ. Ok maybe 20 pounds." Not only was that racist comment utterly sickening, but thanks for saying all of that really loudly in the crowded JC Penney's while...
You Bastard!
Dear laws:
Do you think your correct , is it right to make drugs that actually kill legal and drugs that improve the body illegal, for example marijuana vs cigarettes. Cigarettes do harm to their user cause them to die early and making their life a living hell, by causing lung problems and can actually take years off your life. Do you feel proud about that? You have been corrupts for so long especially in my country ,isn't america supposed to be the land of the free yet were not allowing freedom at all. States should be allowed to create their own laws without having to ask permission of the congress. Now laws, let's get on a drug that has major controversy “marijuana”. This drug has not serious harmful effect on the body and actually helps the body and can cure or treat major...

We've all seen it, or had some experience with a girl dating a guy who won't leave. She shares how awful and miserable the relationship is and frequently says how she wants to leave him, yet, she stays.
One day I googled "signs of abusive relationships". There was an article listing 13 signs, and my face turned bright red as I realized that I experienced each and everyone of those signs. So my story begins.
On December 21, 2012, my life changed forever. The date 12/21/12 was noted by the Mayans as the date the world would end. I remember watching news anchors covering the story as nothing happened. Little did I know by accepting your request to be your girlfriend, the world itself wasn't going to end, but it was my own world that would come very close.
Now onto you, you...

Dear pain,
You came into my life about 2 years ago and you ruined it. You made me feel alone and angry. Tired and depressed. You told me i was nobody and that I didn’t deserve to be amongst the living. You made me feel like God wasn’t there. If I can recall you did tell me that I had no God and you told me that you would even show me that my God wasn’t real. Yea, you really did think you had some big a** balls but you didn’t. You danced all around my life and took me through the craziest amusement park and made me get on every single damn ride. You forced me , I cried and hollered and begged for you to let me off but you didn’t you thought it was funny and you laughed right in my face. You put so much of you in me and you burned me and left scars all over me, and you told me I...

Dear Romantic love,
You know you are not what I thought you were. Where are all the romantic walks down the beach, the warm sand and the cold breeze people should feel while hand in hand with the significant other? Where are all the fun times we should have in the movie theatre? Where is the always and forever? All that I see is you providing us with heart breaks. Broken promises and lies are the only things you show us. Leading on is your favourite game, ruining friendship, bonds and breaking trust is your Hobby. So why is it that you come to our lives? Is it just some sick game for you to see us suffer.
I've watched as you destroy my best friend’s heart, you broke it into millions of pieces right after your concept of “Togetherness till eternity” was promised to her. My friend...

Dear Columbus City School Board,
I’m writing this letter because this is all too much. All of us students having to wake up at the crack of dawn and earlier, just to catch a bus and go to a blazing hot or freezing cold school with no windows.
Us students are waking up at 5 a.m or earlier to rush to get ready and then run to our bus, which half of the time never comes, to hear loud kids and rude bus drivers at 6 in the morning. You can’t possibly expect us to wake up at 5 a.m or earlier, catch the bus, go to school, get home at 3 and have enough time to do everything that needs to be done. We would have to go to sleep around 7 or 8 o’clock to get our full nights sleep, which doesn't leave us that much time to do our homework, study, eat dinner, and do extra curricular activities and...

Dear X,
I only wrote x because he’s so low that he doesn’t deserve two letters. We did have some great memories and some bad ones. But majority of them were bad. Recently we started to become friends again from the time that we broke up last January. But never have I ever passionately hated someone so much. You say that I’m the reason why you have trust issues, yet you wouldn’t know what trust is if it bit you in the ass. (Little does he know that I know that when we were dating he cheated on me with his ex.) When we were dating I felt so happy all the time knowing that I was his but now when I see him in the halls I just want to go sock him in the face.
He was the best and worst thing that has ever happened to me. Best because we both have been through experiences that taught us...

Dear Management,
I wanted to write you a quick letter. I am sure you haven’t thought twice about me since you fired me for really no quantifiable reason earlier this year. But I think about you all the time. I think about all the precious time I wasted working for you. I think about how you took me for granted, squashed my dreams, and killed my soul at little bit more each day for nearly a decade. I think about the time I lost with my kids because I was committed to you and your company. Time I’ll never get back. You might expect this letter to be a nasty tale of all the horrible things you did to me over the years. Nope. I actually wanted to thank you for a few things. I learned a lot from you.
Thank you for teaching me how NOT to manage and lead people. You taught me that...

This letter is specifically addressed to a second-cousin, Joe Rico, 3rd of Chester, PA., Joanne Harris of Baltimore, MD and Shirley Harris of Trainer, PA. Where do I begin? Hmm. Good question. Well, I currently face some very tough decisions. Just a little history on my problem. In 2005 I had a slip and fall accident and in 2006 I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in 2006; resulting in various injuries. Going from being a caregiver to being an injured caregiver is what I faced. It's a problem that can effect caregivers. What happens when the caregiver - due to injuries - is no longer able to be the caregiver? What happens to the caregiver who doesn't have the financial resources to fall back on when this dilemma arises? Too often people who become caregivers for a parent(s), get...

Dear Deadbeat,
You've missed 9 birthdays, 9 Christmases, 9 Father's Days. Countless sporting events. You don't know his shoe size, his best friend's name, or his favorite subject in school. You have never been to a doctors appointment, dentist appointment, etc. You've given a total of $40.00 of financial support his entire life. That was for baby food when he was 6 months old.
Sometimes I feel bad for you, knowing the way you grew up. But then I remind myself that you're a 28 year old grown "man".
You will likely never know the size of the hole you've caused inside of our son. The hole that makes him sit quietly, thinking, when his friends are talking about their dads. The hole that made him ask me why he can't see you when we picked my stepson up from visitation with his Mom. The...
