Dear Afghanistan,
This is hard for me to say, but I feel that the time has come and this is the best choice for both of us. I am leaving you. The decision is final, so please don't try to change my mind. We had some good times over the past 6 months, and we made some great memories that I know I won't soon forget, but even the best of times cannot hide the fact that we just weren't made for each other. It is time for you to start seeing new Seabees, and I have to admit that I've been flirting with my old flame, America; we're going to be getting back together. Sure, she has her problems too, but Afghanistan - you are far too volitile for me. I can no longer spend my nights in bunkers because of your explosive personality or cary a weapon in case you decide to have a mood swing.
I hope that one day you blossom into a beautiful country and we can get past this part of our lives, but I don't know if that will be happening any time soon. Good luck, and keep your chin up.
I will be packing my stuff up this week and moving in with our friend Kuwait for a few days until I can get back on my feet with America. Please don't do anything rash in the mean time - we can both be adults about this.
With Love,
-Kevin
I always told you she wasn't good enough for you! Love, Mom
ReplyDeleteSarah and I just laughed so hard while in the library studying Pharmacology and Microbiology, respectively. You brought a smile to our faces despite the aforementioned misery.
ReplyDeleteLove it,
