As Palavras que Nunca te Direi

‎"Dear Catherine:

My life began when I found you and I thought it had ended when I failed to save you. I thought that hanging on to your memory was keeping us both alive. But I was wrong.

A woman named Theresa showed me that if I was brave enough to open my heart I could love again, no matter how terrible my grief. She made me realize I was only half-alive. It scared me and it hurt. I didn't know how much I needed her till the night she flew away. When that airplane took off, I felt something inside me tear away. And I knew. I should have stopped her. I should've followed her home. And now tomorrow, I'm going to sail to the windy point and I'm going to say goodbye to you. Then I'm going to go to this woman and see if I can win her heart. If I can, I know you'll bless me. And bless us all. If l can't then I'm still blessed because I've had the privilege of loving twice in my life. She gave me that. And if I tell you I love her as much as I loved you then you'll know the whole story. Rest in peace, my love.

Garret.
