Dear Daisy
1    I am a dreamer and write a lot of nonsense. I seldom plan what to write..it's just comes from nowhere
2    life is full of sorrow and having humour gives me another perspective of things---I can't afford to take things too seriously
3   as a humanist, my heart weeps over the tragedy and suffering of people--15,000 kids die A DAY! due to malnutrition
when there's a surplus of food in many countries
4    language and words fascinate me---they are my life and my means of understanding and feeling-
through this, I am able to relate to life and people I meet--how do we use language to make the world a better place?
5   I have talked to nearly every street musician, artist, etc and also have spoken to more strangers than any Melburnian-
out of 10 I talked to, I think 7 responded well--only 2 or 3 regarded me as a con-man.  I am always gladdened when
people trust me implicitly
6    capitalism is bad as it breeds competition and discontent.  Contentment is hard to find in a restless word.
7    I have loved life and this gives me every ounce of strength to meet my death-with utmost tranquillity.
8     Women are tougher and smarter than men and you are the best example.

You write so well and your good-heartedness vibrates through your words.
Knowing you and your husband Morris has meant a lot to me and I count myself most honoured and fortunate.


I remain
yours truly
Peter
