Day 24 Someone Who Changed Your Life

Dear Someone who Changed my Life,
     When you first walked into the room I thought you were the cockiest jerk I had ever seen. I hated you from the moment you walked in. Yet as you got up in front of everyone and began to speak you became the person who changed my life. I listened to you, taking note of everything you said. You had all the answers to the questions I was seeking. You really came into my life at the right time and the right place.
     When I wrote down your email address in my notebook I thought to myself that it was useless because a person like me would never contact someone just because they wanted to know more. Yet a few months later when laid in my bed thinking whom I should write my next piece on your face came to mind. I searched through my notebooks looking where I had written down your information. When I wrote you, I thought you wouldn't answer. I imagined you to be the cocky guy I first perceived you to be. But you were the nicest person on the planet and so cooperative! I was surprised! Actually, from that moment on everything about you surprised me.
     You introduced to me an underground world I didn't know existed. It was the one I had been searching for my whole yet really didn't know it. You brought me to my senses and made me realize that there is more to life than just what I thought there was. With you, I understood so much more. You showed me the way and paved the path for the rest of my life.
     I don't see you as often as I like anymore. I wish I could have you as a frequent reference. Yet, I know at some point I had to fly off on my own and do my own thing. I never told you how much I appreciated you. I never told you how much I looked up to you. I never thanked you for changing my life.
