I am in love with this new literary device you have invented. Unsent letters. Brilliant. It immediately anchors your always delightful insights in the context of story. With your permission I am going to borrow the convention for a storytelling practice session. Looking forward to where this goes. Or where you go. But hopefully not up a tree. :)
Rick! Thank you, my friend, from the bottom of my heart, for these beautiful words. And of course you have my permission, I'm honored. It is indeed a new device that can serve many different purposes, with which I feel (surprisingly) at ease. I plan on continuing for the foreseeable future, as I'm enjoying doing it (as I'd have enjoyed climbing that tree on that day lol).
This is what is so exciting about persistence with the creation process. You never know what amazing discovery you might stumble on when you keep contributing with consistency. When your "Unsent Letters" book comes out and becomes a bestseller I'll be able to say I was there when it all started.
Thank you, really. We'll see what the future has in store. For right now, I focus on enjoying the process, which is what matters at this stage of the game, I think. And I can surely say that you were there when everything started for me!
Thank you, Tommy. Your heartfelt words mean a lot. I'm glad the concept resonated with you, and I appreciate your connection to the letter's sentiment.
The silence comment also reminded me of that famous scene in Pulp Fiction. How you can measure the depth of the relationship by how comfortable shared silence is.
Intrigued to see how it goes for you. I find it a surprisingly useful device of self-discovery, even though there's a certain amount of autofiction at times. And you're right: what if? :)

What a line to end with! I keep loving this series, Silvio.
Thank you so much, Oscar!
Silvio, I loved this so much.
I’ve also developed this internal quiet unspoken idea of reversion to the mean, yet never articulated it as well as you did here.
As someone who’s felt lonely at times, fallen out of a long term relationship, this letter was grace.
Thank you for sharing :)

Absolutely! Shared silence often speaks volumes about the depth of connection and understanding.
I'm going to start a series of unsent letters too. I look forward to yours, and wonder "What if he sent it?"

Always look forward to reading your letters, Silvio. Ciao.
Ciao Stan. Thank you so much. So glad you like reading me.
