Dear MSY,
I think it’s time we talked. I decided to write you a letter because I think it helps me keep track of my thoughts better than conversing in person. A lot of this is going to be hard for me to say but I think you need to hear it. I’m not sure if you knew this, but I went to Seattle this weekend and had a layover in Atlanta on the way.
I didn’t mean to betray you; I just think I need to be honest here and you deserve to know the truth. It’s time you made some changes in your life. I love you but you need professional, state-administered help. When I was in the Atlanta airport I saw so many things that were new and wonderful and they made me believe that someday you might be capable of restoring your luster too.
