Tab 8

The Letter

The most personal page in the folder. Not the practical folder letter from Tab 1, and not the short messages from Tab 7. This is the long-form one. The letter your family keeps for decades and reads out loud to each other years later.

Completely optional. Some of the most thoughtful people using this folder skip it entirely. Some write pages. Some write one sentence. Some write a version now and rewrite it every few years. All of those are legitimate. If you do not want to write this letter, that is a choice, not a failure.
