My darling,

Dearest Kateling,

First, nice hair. Second why can you not be sitting next to me wrapping your tea string around the handle of a cup and snuggling up for an evening with good films and better conversation? I believe this life style should be in our future--if not that, at least shared hurried meals in between bouts of work and play that gives us both courage to continue.

Your place in my life is like a seedling, or like the large branches of trees that might not seem like the source but are responsible for so much nourishment. Just knowing that you are out there fighting your fight gives me courage to continue on. Today I went for an amazing run. It was a bit chilly and some how we still have beautiful weather. I don't understand it because usually it rains and is grey all the time here. I have been struggling with my fears and slowly overcoming them, half by will half by routine...which I suppose requires will. I am working on projects, like sculpting hearts and being inspired by everything I see.

Whatever you do don't let yourself lag due to others friction. Imagine there is water or air between you and all their meaningless words and actions and just zoom on by. I know that your integrity is impenetrable, so keep up that front for yourself as well. That's all for now, I have to set the table. Bisous ma puce. Je t'aime bien fort.
