A collection of letters in English and Filipino left unsent

Every day, we meet people with stories of regret to tell. I have written for them letters that they should have given to their persons of interest. They may not be able to give these to them because of circumstances like death, distance, or simply that their part of the story is over, but reading it now can somehow give them closure.

These are the words that we wished we said. These are the emotions that we felt but failed to let someone else feel. Maybe because we were caught up with a lot of mishaps and misalignments. Maybe the options that we chose were wrong. Maybe we were busy making ships that never touched the sea or making airplanes that never saw the sky.

These moments happen so fast that in the blink of an eye, they are gone.

Don’t wait for cosmic alignments. Say it and mean it, before it’s too late. If you can relate to the letters, feel free to give these to people in your life…so they can serve their purpose now, despite being once too late for someone else.
