| Dear loved ones,(thats all of you...)
I found it hard to begin this letter,
Letters are usually written to a specific group of people, or just one person.
To just say something as simple as "The family's fine how are you" or
some complex emotion like "I've never told you this but I love you"
But this letter is to all of you. To "YOU"
Whoever you might be, Whatever you are going through in this moment
in your life. This letter is to you.
In a letter written to such an anonymous amount of people, do not doubt
dear friends that I have something specific to say. I'm writing this letter to simply say.
Emote. Cherish. Heal. Love. Need. Cry. Bleed. Want. Have. Hope. Lust. LIVE! (It's such a coffee mug thing to say I know.)
I know that a great deal of those I care about and love are facing some rather difficult times
in their lives right now, and to you I say, Have HOPE Dear thing, do not fear.
It is in those times when we are in our deepest, darkest pith's of despair that we are
human.
When getting up in the morning is a feat of champions, When smiling faces only
remind us that we haven't smiled in a while, When the sky it self seems like
it'll turn into a scene from "Chicken Little" and break into a bunch of little pieces
and come crashing around us.
It is during these times that I ask you to pause, To let your anger, sadness, or
malcontent stutter for a moment, I would ask you to smile, to raise your head
and to cherish the feelings you are having, To realize that you are set apart from
the animals simply because you feel like crap. I would ask you to cherish your
thoughts and feelings and think about how bland the world would be without them.
Realize, with your whole being that, whether you believe in a God, Nature,
The Big Bang, or nothing at all. That someone, somewhere is thinking about you.
Loving you for who you are, Even if its just your mother or the humble being writing
this letter now. You are needed, wanted, loved and above all else you are simply,
you.
And no matter how generic you might be, From those of you who pop your collars,
to those of you who wear black nail polish.
No one in the entire world is like you. No one has felt what you yourself are feeling,
or thinking or needing or loving at this exact moment.
The world is big, but your range of emotion and depth is much bigger.
Emote dear friends, and know that you are one-of-a-kind just because you do.
With much love and fervor,
Catherine Jenette Falconnier
