Words That Are True

Draft for yourself. You may share none of it.

Module 7

Example: Completed Example: Words That Are True

Fictional example. Dev prepares words for Luis. They still disagree about an old argument.

Person I am addressing and if I want to speak, write, or keep this private:
Luis. I want to speak if he wants to hear it; otherwise I will keep the page.
Something I mean, with one specific memory or detail:
I treasured our Sunday walks. Luis waited while I stopped to complain about the hill.
Apology or repair I choose to offer, if any; no request for a response:
I choose no apology today. I am leaving our disagreement out.
Words, promises or contact I will leave out because I cannot mean or want them:
I will not say we settled everything or promise to visit each day. I will not ask Luis to forgive me.
My short chosen wording and how I will respect a refusal to hear it:
I loved our Sunday walks. Thank you for waiting on those hills. If Luis declines, I'll put the page away and ask if he wants company.
