Project Forgiveness

Felicia:

please forgive me, these many years later, for never having the courage to tell you that I loved you. I settled for being your 'big brother,' because I wasn't brave enough to risk my feelings and be honest with you. I couldn't stand the thought of possibly being rejected by you, and I didn't want to be hurt if you could not love me the way I loved you; and if you had returned my love, I was afraid I'd mess up the relationship in some way, and still lose you. If I had been as brave as I often pretended to be, I would have told you how deeply I loved you, and faced what ever had to come.
