Since my dad‘s death, my mom has cleared out much of his personal effects. Clothing, toiletries, medication and old files she’s sorted, donated, recycled or pitched. In doing so, she found letters he never sent.
Without disclosing their private contents, I share with you the awareness that whatever any of us leaves behind may be discovered by someone else. Whether intentional or not, we are still learning about his opinions and attitudes. This deepens our relationship with him through what has been revealed.
What letters would you like to write and not send? If discovered, what effect would they have? Ki to Happiness encourages writing letters that may reveal our truths even if we choose not to send them.

I keep my unsent letters in a box. It’s a box of memories! Most are unfinished but full of life stories!
