They're smiling, they must be happy. They're laughing, they must be happy. They're family isn't arguing, they must be happy. They're not crying, they must be happy.

Jessica is one person, one out of 7 billion, and just like everyone else she's gone through something. But, she decided to write a letter, a letter to no one and everyone at the same time. A letter to let go.
