I remember when I first read your book, all the wonderful things that you have done. So I asked mum when I would get to meet you, she said, 'Hopefully not for a long time, precious one.' When I asked the old man when he would see you, he said 'Probably in a little while.' I asked if I could go with him to meet you, he shook his head and walked away with a smile. The man in robes preached of your kindness, and I asked him why you never spoke to me. He said 'Open your heart dear child, he is always there, you just need to see.' I remember when I screamed aloud for help, when I prayed for you to take away my tears. There was no guiding voice, there was no guidance, that was when my faith disappeared. I will always question your existence, and I think that that is fair. If I have never seen you, heard or felt you, why should I believe that you are there?
