Dear Paul, This letter may come as a surprise. I am writing to effect reconciliation between us. I must forgive you. This is not easy.. I would like you to recognize all the ways you have hurt (frightened, confused, discouraged) me. If you dont know or may have forgotten what these hurts are, here is a list. .. I would like you to sincerely apologize for your contribution to each of these hurts (frights, confusions, discouragements etc.) I know there were other contributors including myself sometimes. I would like you to promise not to do these things to me or anyone else ever again. I suspect that it might be hard for you to make that promise and it may be hard for me to believe you. It would help if I saw some changes in your attitude and behavior. I would like you to suggest what you think is appropriate restitution or compensation for damages that came from these hurts, (frights, confusions, and discouragements). If you dont know what these damages are, here is a list. . I am writing in confidence. Please maintain confidentiality also. I am not writing to blame, embarrass or punish you. I am writing so that we may both forgive and forget. This is for our mutual benefit. Please take it seriously. There are some good things you have done for me. (Write this only if it applies) such as (add a small list). I know there are possibly ways in which I have hurt you. I am prepared to hear about these. We can deal with them later. Please respond to me in writing within two weeks. Yours sincerely, Jasper G. Suarez
