dear juana,
When other specimens were under fire here, I chose to write rhetoric debates and plant images of false hope in their mind. Perhaps I briefly disembarked in a description of what drives me to scream(innocence stolen, a lack of music, dandelion crowns, pirates). You'll get no such thing from me, as my bones are still aching from sleeping on the ground, my skin itching from grass. This state of agitation drives me set a new standard of living.
I think bowling is something everyone should do if they want to become Buddhist. It's lesson in futility.
I think everyone should sleep beneath the stars at least once a year, just so that they can learn what a bad night of sleep really is. I am tired of hearing people complain about their seven hours of sleep- when I still smile with two.
When a human turns fifteen, I think they should be gifted with a huge bag. Within it should be a diary, colored pens, tarot cards, and three books. People would be nicer in general if they had these things on them at all time.
All persons over the age of ten should have at least one lesson in self defense. I am tired of boys who think that they can over power little ones. Even if I do get a thrill when they're upset because a girl, such as myself, gives them a taste of their own medicine.
Green, Purple, and Orange should match.
Everyone should have at least one wacky costume.
Love should be something of degrees, not full thrust- and I wish everyone understood that.
-Lillian Ann.

lilian ann,
i love this its so scattered but fits together so well. i like how youdscribed how you want things to be and i love it. you are sure about it, you know what you want and some of us dont really have that. i know i dont. still i agree with you on so many things such as the love thing and the 15 thing, but i guess we can only give those things to our children and hope that they will learn how to use them and pass it one. thank you so much for your letter. it made me smile.
