Dear younger me,

 

You dwell in a cave of sadness, whereas I bask in the sunshine of love. What can I say, except that the staircase between us begins with heavy steps and silent tears—climbed in quiet sorrow at first—yet ends in running, screaming, and laughing, like the lighthearted child hidden deep within you, beneath your outer shell.

 

Jean-Louis

 

PS: Thank you for abandoning your self-project; without your courage, I wouldn't have been able to write these words to you.
