A letter from Jan 23, 2025

Hi Krissy <3 I am 25, comin at ya from my $615 storage unit that I sleep in twice a month in good ole Madison, Wisconsin. 20 year old "Kris" asked if I was happy. At the moment, I am struggling. No need for details. I'm hoping you won't be able to recall every little thing that is currently stressing me out. But short answer: I am happier with my life now than I have been in a long, looong time. I feel free. Still figuring out everything honestly. But free. In control? Not most of the time. But I'm alive. There is someone who is very special to me. I hope he's alive. I hope he's thriving. I hope he's still around in your life in some way. I no longer feel a rush for marriage or kids. A desire? Absolutely. But a rush? Consider me terrified. I hope you're somewhere cool. Even if it's Wisconsin, hopefully you're happy. I hope you're thriving actually. You deserve that.
