Dear Mom and Dad,
How have you been lately? I really miss you both. I’m sorry we haven’t talked in a long time. Are you safe? There’s been a lot going on lately, I can tell. Everyone is at their wits end and honestly, I am too. People are afraid of going out. We have people dressing up as clowns attacking and killing people. Men and women have not been taking rejection lightly and have been resorting to violence. Oh, and my personal favorite, people killing officers and officers killing people. African Americans are being killed by the police because they are intimidated by them, and white officers are being killed by African Americans because they are serving “justice.” Killing is killing. Murder is murder. A negative does not make a right, and the ones that are trying to become a martyr from this will not achieve their goals.
This is not how the world was supposed to be. I know God said it was only going to get worst, but I can’t stand this anymore! Did you see what happened in Orlando?! My heart still aches just mentioning it. This world is declining, and it’s truly sad to see. I am just tired of hearing about all the killing, all the rapping, all the negativity just needs to stop! But it won’t stop.
Maybe I am a coward. Maybe I can’t deal with these issues because I am a coward. Fine then! I’m a coward! I can’t deal with reality it’s just too much for me to bear. I'd rather just run away! I am so afraid. I am so tired. I really don’t know what to do.
This world just seems like it doesn’t want to be helped because no one is willing to help change. We have people complain about it, but they're putting little to no effort into fixing it. Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot of people that are trying to change the issues, but I wonder know if it’s worth it. We have an idiot running for president that looks like an oompa loompa, and the other one is a criminal. Cancer is taking over the world, and I can’t live with that anymore. It’s taking all the people I could ever love away from me.
Sometimes I ask God, “Is this is all worth it? With everything that is happening, because it’s in your will Lord should we keep fighting?” I’ve come to realization that fighting is the only way to achieve true happiness. We could possibly live in a more peaceful world. It won’t be sin free, but possibly more peaceful. With all the ugliness in the world, there is a lot of beauty that exists as well. That's what gives me hope. The people that are genuinely nice, the beauty in a sunset, the beauty in a rainbow, everything.
Mom, Dad, Sis, I love you all. I really miss you, and I know you miss me too. I will try and visit more. I will try and call more. I will check in more. I’m sorry. Life is too short, and I need to take every minute I have with you all. I really love you all. Please, don’t ever forget that. There is peace in the world, and we will find it.
