| and a sincere love for others | B |
| One that will do no harm to you or your neighbor | C |
| both here and for eternity | D |
| Soon you will experience the true love and | E |
| affection you so richly deserve | F |
| Whilst in this period of transition powerful forces of evil will conspire against you | G |
| often presenting you with a form of counterfeit love | A |
| You will experience great burdens dashed expectations | H |
| deep betrayal disappointments and frustrations | H |
| For a while nothing seems to work out for you | G |
| nowhere are you welcomed loved or cared for | I |
| only misunderstood and rejected | J |
| in spite of your best intentions and efforts | K |
| You will be presented with information and views that claim | L |
| to provide the answers the love hope and the acceptance you crave | M |
| Sometimes you will even pursue it | N |
| only to discover it was always aimed to ensure | O |
| maximum destruction or deceit | P |
| Invariably it is intended to keep you from your destiny | D |
| - | |
| How does one navigate this minefield | Q |
| Can one completely avoid hurt and pain | R |
| Yes we can | S |
| However our basic nature is rebellion and disobedience | T |
| We find it hard to submit especially in early adulthood | U |
| to the wise counsel of Love and Providence | T |
| As a result we go through life often causing and | E |
| sometimes experiencing much hurt and pain | R |
| until and such is my enduring prayer | V |
| that you identify your calling and yield to its instruction | W |
| For those who are truly called it happens early in life | X |
| although full surrender might occur only much later | C |
| - | |
| And so my son as you enter the complex | Y |
| terrain of maturity just one piece of advice | Z |
| cultivate an obedience to your inner Voice | A2 |
| Some call it instinct intuition or your gut | B2 |
| Psycho analysis has long ago discovered this | C2 |
| essential element of the human soul | D2 |
| Whenever it tells you something is wrong listen to it | N |
| if it tells you to run do it | N |
| Again gifted people are naturally stubborn | E2 |
| so you will be inclined to make many mistakes | F2 |
| some in ignorance and others by choice | A2 |
| Even so your appointment with Destiny is certain | W |
| you will face it one day | G2 |
| Either fulfilled to your reward and glory | D |
| or unfulfilled to your eternal shame and damnation | W |
| We cannot escape it | N |
| Nothing no money power pleasure revenge | H2 |
| lusts and beauty | D |
| can ever satisfy the demands our soul | D2 |
| Such will always lead to greater despair | V |
| and immense emptiness | I2 |
| Rightfully so since as I would after great pain discover | C |
| only true Love can | S |
| And such love exists it is available | J2 |
| Only in Him will you discover your true self | K2 |
| It is then when you can properly love yourself | K2 |
| in spite of who you are | L2 |
| and only then can you offer true love to others | B |
| It is when you will truly fulfill and embrace your destiny | D |
| for which you were so meticulously | D |
| designed and painstakingly prepared | M2 |
| - | |
| Whatever road you choose | N2 |
| Daddy will be right behind you | G |
| Often I will disagree with your choices | O2 |
| but I will love you still | P2 |
| With Dad you will never be rejected only corrected | Q2 |
| Whether you choose to accept such correction | W |
| is always up to you | G |
| but I m sure you will expect me | D |
| to always adhere to my convictions and values | N2 |
| however difficult it might be | D |
| And so even if you reject it | N |
| I will always remain loyal and dedicated to you | G |
| with my love and respect for you undiminished | R2 |
| In me you have an admirer for life | X |
