Dear Mary,


please find enclosed my entire Noblet collection as a sign that I forgive you.

When I received your book, the emotions inside my brain felt like they were in a tumble dryer, smashing into each other. The hurt felt like when I accidentally stapled my lips together.


The reason I forgive you is because you are not perfect.

You are imperfect, and so am l.
All humans are imperfect, even the man outside my apartment who litters.


When I was young, I wanted to be anybody but myself. Dr Bernard Hazelhof said if I was on a desert island then I would have to get used to my own company, just me and the coconuts.

He said I would have to accept myself, my warts and all, and that we don't get to choose our warts. They are a part of us and we have to live with them.

We can, however, choose our friends and I am glad I have chosen you.

Dr Bernard Hazelhof also said that everyone's lives are like a very long sidewalk. Some are well paved. Others, like mine, have cracks, banana skins and cigarette butts.

Your sidewalk is like mine but probably not as many cracks.

Hopefully, one day our sidewalks will meet and we can share a can of condensed milk.


You are my best friend,
You are my only friend....


Your American penpal,

Max Jerry Horowitz.

Bazen ugruna savas verebılecek bırseyın olmadıgını dusunursun… bazen hersey savasa donusuverır…

Gözler yanar, sıkıntıdan patlar. Ne gecmısı dusunmek ne gelecekten korkmak ıster…bosvermek ıster

Ama kım gercekten bosverebılır? Kızın bırı bır keresınde ona yapılanları tamamen unutan ve affeden aptaldır demıstı. Unutmak yerıne hatırlamalıyız, hatırlayarak affetmelıyız demıstı.

Kız eskı unut ve affet felsefesını elestırme cesaretını gostermıstı ve soyledıklerınde de haklıydı

Pekı kım hatırlayarak affedebilir? Ancak gercekten olgun bir insan...
