Marcus hi. My name is fatimah. Im writing because my grandmother recently died and with the loss of elders comes the loss of family ties. When I was younger I had a cousin whom my grandmother would care for. Hr was the cutest little boy and I grew to love him alot. One day he wasn't there anymore and I never knew why. I asked questions but never received answers. Over the years I thought of my little cousin often. I wondered where he was, what he was doing and what he grew to become. Today I received a phone call from my little cousins dad. He actually made a mistake and called me but it was wonderful because I hadn't spoken to him in many years and I always get this overjoyed feeling when I talk to him because he is my family and we were separated as kids. So I asked him where was his son, the little boy that I grew to love but was taken from me. He said he went through some things and he is locked up. I said I would love to connect with him because grandma died I need for all of our family to be reunited. He said okay he is in Wisconsin. I said im going to find my little cousin and tell him I love him. I asked fit his full name and he told me. So I went online and found a picture in the system and became overjoyed with excitement because I finally got to see him. Marcus you may not remember but you are that little boy I speak of and I just want to tell you that I Love You cuz. I Love You.
Will they give you a replacement Bible or Qur'an? I thought such things were automatically made available to prisoners upon request. Perhaps the chaplain has extra copies?
If nobody has any replacements, I happen to have a stack of KJV Bibles that I found for cheap a while back, that are doing nobody any good sitting on my shelf, and you're welcome to one or five. :-) You have my address, or just post to your blog and I should see the request.
Thank you for your honesty in writing this. There only appear to be 2 of the 3 pages in this post - I'll see if maybe the other one has been posted separately as I would like to hear the end of what you have to say.
I really liked your letter because it made me look at things from a different perspective. I do agree that we often lump all of the accused together as if they are not human. I also liked how you talked about the best were sent to prison because I think that is very true especially in countries with a more tyrannic justice system. Thanks for helping me see things from a different perspective.

I thoroughly enjoyed your Hormigas! post!! Thanks for that... it put a solid grin on my face.
I can sympathize with the conservationist tendencies... but when insects invade the home, the line has been crossed! :-)
