Entrant - Neo-Twiny Jam

This game, written for the Neo Twiny Jam in 500 words or less, takes a twist on multiple meanings of the word 'correspondence'.
Rather than using the word limit to ration small paragraphs into multiple branches, it unloads it all in one linear story.
There's a nice twist halfway through, which is executed well. But a lot of the phrasing in the letter felt very vague to me. I realize that they may have helped the twist, but I'm not sure. Overall had some strong moments.
Being kind to oneself is a struggle, especially when things are tough, when you don’t like yourself, when the changes you make in your life/yourself do not pan out the way you want.
Even so, compassion is what makes us heal, what makes us stronger. For without it, we let ourselves be consumed and blinder by pain and self loathing.
The simplicity and writing of the imagery in this entry is quite painful… but so well done.
