Dear X collaborative entry

~Nov. 03, 2002~

The Dear X topics came out, and I love them all, so will probably write about all of them. This, however, is the first one. Knowledge.

Dear X,

They say that knowledge is power, right? Than why was I so powerless to change anything? Why were you? But you weren't, were you? You had the knowledge, and you had the power. You just chose not to. You squandered the knowledge of what should be done, what needed to be done, and what wasn't being done.

So maybe it's not really the knowledge that's the power. Maybe it's more the desire and the will to use that knowledge in a productive fashion. Neither of which it felt like you had. Or even cared to have.

I gave you all the knowledge you needed up front. I never held anything back. Laid it all out for you from the get go. But that just wasn't enough. Having it did nothing. You did nothing with it. Nothing. Zip, zilch, nada. I ever proded you with the knowledge along the way. And for what? To get my heart broke? Yea, I guess there is power in knowledge. The power to hurt.

Well, I've taken back that power. I'm not going to let you hurt me anymore with your lack of action on what you know. And yes, you do know it. You've always known it. You just didn't care about anything except what made you happy right at that present moment.

You still have the knowledge, though. And maybe, somewhere down the line, you'll have the desire and the motivation, and the will and the want to actually do something. And here's another bit of knowledge for you...

It kills me that I won't be the one to reap the benefits of my tattered heart.
