"...that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
I am accomplishing just that- without you. In the month that has past, I have realized I am the only one truly responsible for my happiness. While it would be a blessing for you to be a part of this, I can say with certainty I do not need you. Yes, I pine for you still today but I am not going to let that stand in the way of moving forward.
I still hold dear a hope this can be resolved somehow, someday. Above everything else, I value your friendship, your counsel, and your company. While there is no one I know who can be everything I love in a person except for you, I have many friends and family who do, collectively.
Safety in numbers.
