...I surely would.
I wish I could go back, and just have one day...a day with no worries...a day where everything makes sense...just you and I.
I think about it a lot more than I should...and I wonder, is it's just because it's not there? Or...is it because I had finally allowed myself to let go?
It's easier to write now...because I know that you aren't there to read it.
They say that the biggest part of caring about someone is being able to let them go...but "they" never explain the hole that remains.
I woke up one day, and the words came so easily...a simple promise.
"I am not who you think I am...I will be bigger, I will be better, and I will be more than you will ever imagine. And when you see me on your TV, and in your magazines, and you hear me on the radio...smile. Why? Because you pushed me...to dream a little bigger, to love a little harder, and to go for what I want, no matter how long it takes. Anyone who knows about me will know about you, and the difference you made. No matter what good fortune may be ahead...I will never forget what got me there, and I will never regret any of it. I'm on my way to the top...you can love me or hate me...but you'll never look at me the same again."
There's going to be a time when I feel as free as I did again. You may never know, and you may never care, but you've changed the world. My world. And when the time comes, the rest of the world will know, too.
If you read this...and you wonder..."who is this for?"...it's for you. You may not have understood then, and you may not even understand now...but there are some things that just can't be put into words. And when I get to wherever it is that I choose to go, I'm going to stop, take a good look around, look to the sky, and say, "Thank You."
