Dear,

Life will probably be a series of looking for a good amount of control, and you will always be meeting new people, some good, others not so good, but you are a loving and smart person, and you have something a lot of other people are short on — wisdom. You have it in you to get what you need and want, to meet other people just as great as you. Think of how lonely they are tonight Think of how lonely I used to be, before I met you, and how very lonely you used to be before you met me, writing dark poetry in your basement. But now you are starting to live in the moment, and you have a world of wonderful things to learn, we will learn them together, you will learn with others. And most importantly, you will learn them on your own, and then share them with lucky people such as me.
