Letters to William #2

Dear William, Unfortunately for you I’m a woman of my word and therefore, you get another wretched letter. Believe me; I was hoping after my first (and rather embarrassing) monologue that the burden of purpose would be relieved. The small “voice” that has been moving my spirit would say, “Ok. Good job. You’re all done. Now you can move on to something else.” I feel no relief… thus I continue. My mind keeps trying to tell me the obvious truth, “This is stupid. What kind of impact are you gonna have here? You’re sending letters to a celebrity, you’re a nobody. You really need to stop this lunacy before you cause some kind of trouble.” I can’t find the will to stop; I can’t even find the desire. It feels good to put my troubled thoughts out there somewhere. I’m a little worried, however, that these posts are going to start taking on the qualities of a pen pal letter or diary entry. Let’s both pray they don’t, and please forgive me if they do. It’s sort of difficult, to say the least, voicing your thoughts and opinions to a “brick wall”. Anyway, here we go! First off, I wanted to say that I hope you all had a great time at the Echoplex last night! I’m sure you guys rocked it! As I’m sure many others were, I was cheering along in spirit. Next, you give me no choice but to “scold” you! I originally wrote this letter early this morning. I kept adding things throughout the day, just random thoughts and details that I believed would bring the letter together as a whole. My theme for the letter was justice/forgiveness. I went to read your newest post on EFHTT late this afternoon, and what a shocker! (I hope you can feel the playful sarcasm there!) You’re discussion for today was forgiveness! I cannot win! The coincidences just keep on coming! Oh well, perhaps coincidence really does exist and it’s a plain and simple thing nothing more. Whatever the case may be, I had to revamp my letter. So, here’s the gist of what I wanted/want to say. I have seen some very negative things over the weekend, most of them about you and SP. I started wondering what separates your troubles and mistakes from everyone else’s. Haven’t we all, as human beings of this planet, made terrible mistakes? I can personally (though not proudly) admit that I’ve done things I’m ashamed of. I’ve manipulated people and situations for my own selfish desires; I’ve broken hearts, hurt feelings, burned bridges, and walked away from both love and God. Most of these things were, at the time, unconsciously done. But, how is that different from some of these injuries you have “supposedly” inflicted on others? I figured out that it’s the stage. I perform my heinous acts on a very small stage, in front of a tiny crowd. You, however, perform all of your acts (be they good or bad) on the world’s stage. I find that act to be very brave, no matter how the performance turns out. It appears that I am over-ruled on that subject. Anyway, I started to wander further into this idea, and I thought of justice. Where’s the justice in the criticism you endure? I think it’s wrong to hold such things over someone else’s head whether they happened in the past or are happening now. So, where is YOUR justice? It was then that I was able to see justice for what it really is… forgiveness. Only through forgiveness can we feel justice as it was intended. Justice in the “eye for an eye” sense is just an easy way out, an instant gratification. Justice for the sake of vengeance never fails to leave a bitter after taste. However, when you think of justice as forgiveness, you can see that it is the justice we all deserve. It is the correct justice. As always I’m not sure what the point of sharing this with you is, especially after I read your newest post! It would appear (as I should have assumed) that you already knew all of this. But everything is so new to me now; it seemed like such an epiphany at the time. Regardless, I hope this letter finds you well (should it find you at all) and I hope it will assist you in some way to know that you’re never alone. Obviously, God is always with you, and I feel safe in assuming your friends and family are too. But, I want to remind you that you really do have so much more than that. Sometimes the world and its people can be unjust. I still don’t quite understand why some feel the need to judge and slander others so harshly. Those actions surely cannot bring anyone happiness. I feel confident that you don’t need a strange woman sending you a letter to remind you that the fans love you, but I also know it never hurts to say it or hear it! In my personal experience, sometimes it’s hard to see Love for all the hatred in its way. The World Loves You William!! As an artist, celebrity, man, friend, lover, brother, and many other things I can’t even comprehend right now… you are always loved! Do your best to shine in your own beautiful way! The world loves your light!
