He held the letter aloft, the aged paper brittle. Addressed to the company CEO, filled with the fire of righteous indignation about his treatment at work. Never sent. The words now seemed… quaint. He felt a small laugh bubbling up in his chest.

He had long since moved on, found a new career, built a new life. He looked out the window at the vibrant cityscape. It was good to have moved on.

He carefully tore the letter into pieces, feeling a lightness in his chest. He would go for a run.
