I am painfully used to saying goodbye. It seems like I have said it more in the past 4 years than I have said anything good. As I drove home tonight, I wondered

You are not selfish for what happened between you and jones. I don't think anyone should have to compromise as much of themselves as you tried to in an effort to make it work. I know my advice before the split was to keep on chuggin', but you went beyond what I believe a human should. Personally, I might be selfish too. But only because I am not one who will bend easily, nor do I think you should. Except when it comes to my mom, of course.

I want to say that you should go on to pursue your education goals because you cannot let go of your dreams, not when you have so very much potential and not when I saw you work yourself to death in highschool (especially in KUNA). I think really it is because I cannot imagine you any other way. I look up to you because of your ability to achieve and your independance. And your iPhone.

And I don't want to see you abandon potential greatness because I don't want to see myself do it. But I can't project my values on you, and I really can't do the same with my opinion of you. Just know that there is no way that I could find you selfish, or foolish for your ways of thinking.

I don't know if any of that blah helps, but I just thought I'd share it. I love and respect who you are and really, really want you to go to Harvard. Because that is just dead sexy.
