Thank You

I just thought you should know...

that I am very impressed. 

I am very impressed with your performance.

But, you see, I am an actor. A trained Thespian, if you will. 

And not just that. I am an actor that has based my theory, and my application, of acting, in Truth. 

I will think of you, often, in the beginning as I process you, and then...as time passes...every now and again...and finally, rarely...and only as a wonderful tool to teach my disciples and as a greatly-defined antithesis to what I will then call my boyfriend or partner or husband.  

I will remember the good things you have taught me. I will remember the laughs we shared, and the modes of thinking that are useful to me.

Your good tips on wearing only fresh, new garments in my photoshoots. And your very efficient workout techniques, adaptable to any time, place or situation.

And I will remember how you lied. I will remember exactly how you lied, so that I can catch the next one. In fact, I've already successfully snatched up two more of your types. I must say that I am quite proud of myself, and an incredibly quick learner.

And I am happy. 

I may not be running around with a giant "smile on my face", or with a new joke to tell. 

I may not have the perfect words to say, or the most gentle, lovable demeanor in which to deliver those words. 

No...my happiness...my goodness...runs to the very core of my soul. 

Goodbye, my friend. You have taught me very well. 

Ms. Violet
