A Follow-Up To My Logic

Dearest Logical-Self:

Hello! It's me again - your subconscious mind. Listen, I know you are still rather frustrated with me. I mean, I deserve it. Let's face it, I have not exactly lived up to the grand promise I made three weeks ago - that promise of allowing you to live the life you want to live without the clutch of my overbearing nature. In fact, I'm certain it was my overstepping which ultimately led to this week's breakup of which you were on the receiving end.

To put it mildly, I know you really liked her. In fact, I know you had never felt such strong feelings toward another woman so quickly - a rush to a point where you weren't entirely sure how to process everything. I mean, you were fairly certain that the potential of her becoming a part of your life for many years was 100% genuine. Naturally, after seeing similar past experiences end up in sheer heartbreak, I couldn't bear to watch from a distance any longer. Like a protective mother to her child, I felt like I had to step in and make sure you were getting not only what you wanted, but what you deserved.

However, it was this action which was a complete 180 against my recent promise to you - a promise where I would unconditionally trust your strength and kaizen-like drive towards becoming the man you ultimately want to be. Therefore by the end of this brief relationship with her, you were not the determined man with a fire of vitality and passion roaring within as demonstrated in the onset - a fire further fueled by my care and guidance. Rather, my presence ultimately became a cloak which smothered that fire within and further reduced you to a feeble, hesitant pile of burning ash. For that, I am truly sorry.

So, here I am - once again - pleading for your acceptance of my apology. I now understand that such transformations require a lot of time and great patience - two things I honestly did not consider when I first reached out to you for partnership from out of those murky cognitive depths. I also understand that while my intentions will 100% be with your best interests in mind, I know (as I am human) that I will overstep my boundaries now and again out of a natural protective drive, regardless of my faith in you. However, I promise to do my very best to work with you from within my boundaries, not against you. It will take some time, no doubt, and we will rub each other the wrong way now and again, but I believe that we will make great things happen! So, please, accept my apology.

Sincerely,

Your Subconscious Mind
