Dear Ajay,

You probably, already know, what this letter is all about, you have seen this coming, I know

you have. It’s about us Ajay! It’s over !I’m leaving you ! I hung around as long as I could.

You got to give me credit for that. I mean the way you swept me of my feet and talked so

lovingly about the future, that we’d have together. I waited for so long for your embrace, for

your intention, for your love. Why Ajay, why have you neglected me? Why did you give me

so many excuses? Your inaction and addiction of procrastination is tearing me apart. And I

simply, simply must move on…!

For years I ‘d get so excited every time you talked about the business we would start. The

places we were going to visit together, in the water front, watch the sunset, every night. My

heart would peter pat every time you would talk about me to other people, only to be let down

again – because you were afraid. Ajay, why are you afraid? It’s only me. I’m your hopes,

your dreams, and your goals. I wanted you, as much as you wanted me. But you left me no

choice! I simply, must move on !

Ajay, please, do not attempt to talk me away out of this ! The years of indecision and lack of

discipline, telling me everything I needed to know. If you really wanted me, you would’ve

found a way for us to be together. Ajay, I’m tired of having my hope soar so high up, just to

see them dashed…I simply must move on !

Time is marching by without us. My greatest fear is suddenly becoming visible on the

horizon. I’m so afraid Ajay, we will come to the end of our life time and never have the

chance to really, get to know one another. It absolutely breaks my heart even to entertain this

thought. But, I simply…I must move on !

You see Ajay, like the Genie that grants three wishes, I wanted to give your heart’s desire. All

I needed, all I wanted, all I ever asked for, was for your attention – your devotion and your

willingness to work hard for me. And if that was too much to ask for Ajay, then I’m sorry.

But still, I simply…I must move on.

See, all things that value must be earned. And I’ve grown tired of your excuses and your lack

of patience. On numerous occasions I was within your grasp but you quit too soon. Why did

you leave me when you were so close?

Dear Ajay, I want to let you a little secret. Every day, I would call out to you, ‘I’m your baby,

here I am, come and get me. Knock your door. Did you ever hear me?

I repeated this question day after day, month after month, year after year…

But now, I’ve grown tired of hearing – timing is not right… that you are tired, need to sort

out family, that someday, you are going to get round to it.

Well Ajay, now it’s time that I got round to it myself and found someone, who’s committed,

who’s focused, who is proactive. I simply, must move on…

There is something you should know about us Ajay, we are never a failure nor I ever let you

down…

The main reason, in fact, the only reason, why we have not embraced one another, is that,

You have failed us by not taking the ACTION.

Lovingly and Sincerely,

Ever Yours,

You Goals - Your Hopes – Your Passion and your Dreams
