Day 12: Something you never get compliments on. I don't know that I can really think of anything. I never get complimented on... yeah. I've got nothing.
Day 13: A band or artist that has gotten you through some tough days. (write a letter.)
Dear Chely Wright,
I want you to know that your song "shut up and drive" has been my go-to break up song for years. That being said, I haven't really experienced that many breakups, but when they come, and they're usually doozies, your song becomes the one I sing in the car, the one on repeat on my playlists.
In the moment I remember to blink back the tears and keep my pride. I crank up the loud music, and don't look back. Once I've realized that the person I loved was just who I made them up to be I think of the line "you'll only miss the man, you wanted him to be." I seem to find that to be the case with most of the guys I've been interested in. Someday maybe I'll see straight.
So for now, your song is on the shelf, but never fear, when I need it again, out she'll come reminding me to move on, not to cry too much, and that he's not the one.
Love,
Emily
