So many years had passed since we last spoke. So many times I thought of reaching out to you, and now, I wish I had. We did not always get along, there was so much turmoil in our lives, all of of my life. I so often felt the pain you lived in for so many years and was so happy for you when you found happiness. There were so many times through out my life I longed for a relationship with you, but we were both too stuborn to let it happen. I will miss you for the rest of my life and will always cherish those rare times when I saw you smile or heard kindness in your voice. I wish so hard I could have known you the last years of your life and will forever regret not having told you how much I really did love you.
