Dear Son,
One of these days, your living world will crumble. You may be alright but those around you, will not. You will have a choice. Either to run away or stay. You will have to be the rock because you are the only one able to stand. Because you are the only one who knows things will get better. Because you know that you can not leave.
Ever since you were born, you have tried to find a name for yourself. I know you are tired of living under my name. But your time will come and that may be right now. You don't want to be the man who disappeared because disappearing is easy.
But I assure you, not all heroes wear capes. Even if it doesn't feel like it. Even if they forget what you said and what you did, one day, someone will see. But until that day, take care of yourself.
Because you need you and your friends will need you too. And that is all that you can do. You will become a light in their cave. Or their patch of land while at sea.
So take care my son. Sleep and dream well. Drink lots of water and write until you feel ok. Say more and be better. And remember to go outside and see the world while you can.
May you be the hero you aspire to be
- M
