Reddit has a subreddit called Unsent Letters. It made me wonder if there would be any letters that I would want to send, perhaps upon my death or via dreams, to say what has been left unsaid to anyone in my past, present or future. Perhaps some of this will overlap with the 'moments that matter' series.

Dear Toby -
It has been ages...hope you are happy, as you so deserve. In my darkest times, you were part of the light that served as a beacon for me to fight for love.
I never knew whether you had received my letter after that camp to thank you. Thank you for being that first man in my life to teach me that there are great men, disguised as a boy, in this life. Thank you for reminding me that the best gifts may be small gestures in its simplicity and genuineness. Thank you for teaching me that speaking up for others will always leave a positive impact in someone's life. Thank you for showing me kindness.
Most of all, thank you for being my first love, as innocent as it may have been, and as pure as it could have been, and thank you for being my knight in shining armor when I felt helpless.
💞
