Eeho+Journal+Diary+4

Dear Paris, I admit that I’ usually not a fan of your writing because your articles tend to be overly patriotic and corny. I did however, very much enjoy your past article on Thomas Paine’s best-selling pamphlet Common Sense. I wish you would move back to New England so I could read your articles better. How was your move to New York? It must have been a long and arduous trip. Best of luck in settling down. I agree on what you wrote about England not being the mother country of America, but as a Native American, I feel like Thomas Paine was being very inclusive when he called Europe the mother nation, completely neglecting the assimilated native American peoples that take place in society. You don’t know me, but I feel compelled to tell you that I’m getting older and I’m basically sitting around the house waiting to die. This is why I have the time to not only read a New York journal article, but to write to a complete stranger based solely on reading their article. I really hope you write back, my children never do, and I have nothing to read the whole day. In fact, my eyesight is getting so bad, I can hardly read.

Sincerely, Mohawk.

P.S I can’t complete the crossword. What’s a three letter word for “cat”?
