remember that chat a few weeks ago when you shared that you felt i was placing all this pressure on you to make me happy? i don't think there is a day that has passed since in which i haven't thought about that comment and felt guilty for your feeling that way.
that is not how a friendship should be experienced with the feelings of burdens and obligations to be fulfilled. it is certainly not what i want for our friendship and i am truly sorry for having done so. it may seem silly but i feel that i have to make one more statement for both our benefits. and so, with these writings i want you (and i) to know that i release you from any responsibilities that i have placed on you for my happiness.
as i've shared before, i have been in a struggle to let this friendship become what it is meant to be. i hope with this release that can truly happen.

ii was reminded of this performance tonight and wanted to share it here as a tribute to a phenomenal talent who left us way too soon.
