Dear Nephew, Abraham
First off all, I want to apologize for the delay in sending you your b-day card. I was really backed up in filing some legal work and nearly forgot. Here with this letter I'm sending it. Hope you like it. I wanted to do a gothic girl for you, but could not find any good patterns.
I've been working on some other drawings too, but I'll send them to you guys when I complete them all. They're more comic book stuff though. Fitted for the Icemen strip. I got some more writings for you guys as well, but I'll send them later okay.
Well, how have things been over in the university? How has advanced education been? I bet at times mind-blowing, huh? I'm glad you are enjoying it and are making the best of it. I hate to be the one to tell you this, but you got a lot of people depending on you. And always bear in mind that there will be nothing placed before you that you will not be able to overcome.
I've been making a lot of efforts towards gaining my freedom and getting out of prison. Lately, I've been like in a state of Limbo. I even cut down on my reading. Stopped drinking coffee. Even slowed down in my writing and drawing. I wanna start getting subscriptions to magazines for the meantime, but not sure which ones to get. I wanna write out a complaint about the way we are treated in here but I get stuck without words. My cell is cold, the sink and shower water is cold, mail is slow, I cannot watch TV, or listen to "my" radio. The food we are served is either cold, badly cooked, or not enough. The staff are very un-professional and yet it is we the prisoners who are the criminals. So you see my situation? That's what Limbo feels like.
Good thing that us falcons are not ordinary human beings. That we are made of finer soil. Still, we are not meant to be caged up, a falcon deserves to be free, allowed to roam the skies... and I deserve to be free too. I don't deserve to be in prison. Only time will tell. Let Fate take its course.
Until then I will stay strong. Keep my faith in you guys, and never give up. I will continue to be inspired beyond all others if only to inspire others, especially you and your brother.
Anyhow, you still haven't told me what you are studying, or what you plan to do when you finish school. Do you have a girlfriend? Or girlfriends? Believe me, I know the situation, we both come from the same breed. It's hard to have "one" girl only. But so long as you treat them like ladies then everything will be fine. That's all that really matters. That's what counts. Ok then Abraham, this much I will say for now. Stay dedicated, keep studying hard, and "shock the world."
Greatest Esteem
And Affection,
Your Uncle,
Jose.
