The Budget of Paradox

Sophia, the world made up its mind about me long ago. I don’t expect you to understand how the world works. But I do ask you to consider that every argument has two sides. This video frightens me. I wonder what you think.

Sophia, I was listening to the man in this video and realized that what's happened to you and me is not unique. Lots of kids are separated from their dads for no good reason.

Sophia, why did Morey change her name? I always liked her name, but I know she often used others. Still, it’s a little sad to see her throw away something I gave her.

“There are women named Faith, Hope, Joy, and Prudence. Why not Despair, Guilt, Rage, and Grief? It seems only right. ‘Mom, I’d like you to meet the girl of my dreams, Tragedy.’”

Sophia: http://black.blue/sent … Here is a list of everything I’ve sent you in the past few years. Actually, I’m sure there are many more things I couldn’t think of.

If anyone ever tells you I abandoned you, or just walked out of your life, or just don’t care, kindly tell them they’re full of shit.

Sophia Zander Grace Becker of Lynchburg, Virginia: Happy St. Valentine’s Day. I would have sent you flowers but I don’t know where you live or if they would even reach you. Better still, if I were there, I would have loved to take you out to dinner.

I hope you’re well. Love, dad
