I’ll be fine without you, but you are still here

by Melanie

Dear Debt,

I have to forget about you tonight. Forget about responsibility, forget about money, forget about time. Just for a minute. Ok? I’m still recovering from all the work I did to try to get rid of you. I’m still tired. I’m still eager. I’m still lost. I just need to re-fresh.

I have to be me. I can’t deal with the pressure anymore. I have to go one day, one minute without thinking of you.

I know your ego can’t handle it, but I’m a person, too. I’m working hard. I’m trying. I’m up and down. Sometimes I feel like screaming at the top of my lungs about my successes and other times I feel like hiding; not talking to anyone. This is not important. This is ridiculous. Who am I kidding anyway? Surely, not you.

I don’t want to share my thoughts. I don’t want to share my opinions.

I am sick of talking about you. For someone who doesn’t matter to me, why do you matter so much?

I will see you in my dreams.

Love,
Melanie

grrrr. I’m actually back in debt to the tune of 10k. I had to buy a new car…but I guess this debt I’m not considering too evil for some reason. Ask me how I feel about it 2 years from now…

Oh no! That darn debt always sneaks back when you finally think he’s gone. I’m so sorry, Tonya 🙁 That’s a real bummer. But I know, you NEED a car in LA.
