Dear Debt Letter: Mackenzie from the Random Path

by Melanie

This letter is from Mackenzie at The Random Path, providing you with a bit of class and sass! If you’d like to be a part of the Dear Debt letter project, get in touch!  Enjoy this awesome letter!

Dear Debt,

It’s me, Mackenzie. Yes, I know you’re busy and have a lot on your plate. Between government shutdowns and student loan debacles, you certainly have your hands full.

But I’m here to tell you that our relationship is over. You are incessant in your demands, and unforgiving when it comes to my heart. You made me believe that you could “cure what ails”, but it was all a lie.

No amount of money, no amount of “Jonesing” is worth having you around. What I thought was happiness that you provided, was really just misery. And guess what? I don’t need your company.

Your statements, your percentages, your unwillingness to be upfront with what you truly stand for…Despicable is what you really are. I am tired of being judged on past actions, past affiliations with you, dear debt. We met when I was a young woman in college, so naïve, so gullible.

But I’m not a young girl anymore. I am a wise woman, a woman who knows better than to keep associating with you. So I’m going. I’m treading water and I am emerging from the dark water of you, debt.

Goodbye dear debt. Don’t let the door hit ya, on the way out.

Melanie

Great letter, Mackenzie!! I met debt at a similar time in my life, but agree that I’m completely over it. Agreed it’s despicable!

Nice job, MacKenzie….if I were to write a letter to my debt, it would be an expletive filled tirade. The delivery of said letter would be accompanied by a swift kick in the groin.

I’m not bitter at all. 🙂
