All my life the path forward has felt unclear. To be honest, I’ve always felt a little lost.

My dear beleaguered saboteurs,
First and foremost, I wish to say thank you. I know that this letter finds you in fine fettle. I apologize for not writing to you individually, but as I know that you share everything, I thought this would be beneficial. I promise you that I will address you all in turn, as we move forward.
