An Open Letter From Me To You

Dear _________  (insert your name here):

Good morn or evening friends; here's your friendly announcer!  I have serious news to pass on to everybody.  What I'm about to say could mean the world's disaster, could change your joy and laughter to tears and pain.

It's that Love's in need of love today.   Don't delay, send yours in right away!  Hate's goin' round breaking many hearts.  Stop it please, before it's gone too far!

The force of evil plans to make you its possession,   and it will if we let it destroy every-body.  We all must take precautionary measures.  If love and peace you treasure, then you'll hear me when I say that Love's in need of love today.  Don't delay, send yours in right away!  Hate's goin' round breaking many hearts.  Stop it please, before it's gone too far!

_______________________________

We are under attack.  People are out there trying to take things from us, our morals, our hearts, our souls, our time.  Everyone is scratching and clawing and scraping to get to “the top”, a top they feel they can achieve by any means necessary, leaving a trail of battered feelings and shattered dreams.  

But I urge you, you are better than that.  The person you are inside is all you need to be and you must protect and cherish and be one with yourself.  Believe in yourself!  You are worth fighting for, you are worth defending.   Believe that with all your might, love who you are and spread that love around and maybe, just maybe, we will win this thing! 

I will be there, at your side, fighting all the way!

In solidarity,

John
