Good day,
I hope that when your reading this, your minds are more open than they were a few years ago. We haven't spoken in a few years; I hope it wasn't my doing. I know my news at the table was a shock, and you didn't want to speak with me ever again. I hope we can change that.
I just want you to know that I am happy. I had to learn what that was like after the things you had said to me that night. It took me nearly a year to push past most of it -- though I still think I am still recovering. That may never change. But, I've finally reached a good place, a place where I don't hate either of you.
I look and sound a lot different too. I doubt you'd recognize me if we passed on the street. But I hope you can how much it means to me that I can finally be who I want and need to be.
I graduated from university, and now I work at the local newspaper. You can read my column if you want. It mainly discusses politics. I even took some classes about politics so i could write more effectively. It's fun. I write both satire and informative pieces. My boss claims I've been the reason more people have been buying the paper. It's quite flattering.
I would like it if we could call again. I miss both of you, and I have so many things I want to share with you. The first, which will be in this letter, my name. It changed too. I live in Calgary; I know you both haven't moved. So maybe we could go out for coffee sometime, if you'd like that is.
Please write me back,
Samantha
