Guest Post: A Letter to My Sister

With the new year comes a chance for us to redefine our relationships, to look back and realise the things that worked and most importantly; the things that didn't. It's a tough thing to do: to look at the people around you and acknowledge that things aren't OK. But what happens when these are the very people who are meant to define you, support you, be the constants in your life? What happens when these people are family?


"this is addressed to you." was conceived as a safe space to speak to those relationships, to ruminate on what it means to say "this isn't healthy" and to be angry, to grieve, to yell, to scream, to hurt if you need to. If you'd like to post on "this is addressed to you." please e-mail addressingyou@gmail.com and let me know if you'd like to stay anonymous or link back to your blog!


Mr. B takes this difficult step of assessing relationships and vocalising his emotions, and shares a letter to his sister.
