Dear Josh,

My dad yelled at me again today. Recently, I've been feeling like it's all he's been doing. I don't mind. I know I deserve it. I'm not exactly the best child. I'm not like you. Your parents must be proud of who you've become; of how fine and respectful a man you have grown to be.

I wish I could say the same about me.

I've done a great deal of things I regret in my life. But nothing as big as being born. That was my gravest mistake. Part of me is frustrated that I've been burdened with this life and my being too weak to end it. The other part knows that without this life, I would never have met you.

You're the only thing that gives me hope.
