I haven't had a
chance to read actress Lily Collins' book "Unfiltered: No Shame, No
Regrets, Just Me," but from what I've read at least part of it is
written in letter style.
According to news stories
I've read, one chapter is titled "A Letter to All Dads," and it focuses
on her relationship with her father, musician Phil Collins. In the
letter, she forgives him for being away from her so much.
When I looked up the book
online, I came across the Penguin Random House publishing company
website that offers an excerpt from the book. The piece is titled "Note
to Self" and includes the following passage:
"Forgiving myself is just
as important as forgiving others. But now I know. Now I know I deserve
to be the happiest, most fulfilled version of myself that I can possibly
be. And I promise to use my experiences to continue to grow, heal, and
expand my life. It starts with me. In order to accept the love I deserve
from someone else, I must truly believe that I am worthy of it. And I
am. And I’ll never let anyone tell me differently."
The publisher suggests
that readers print out "Note to Self" and keep it handy to read any
time. You can find it by clicking here.
It sounds like it might be a good book to read!
