Dear Jamie,
You look lovely today, I picked that especially for you. I know that black is traditional for a funeral but you wont be you going to mine. Dont be mad. Inside the box is a stack of blank checks linked to an offshore bank account. My life savings. Dont worry about the amount, just know you won't have any trouble with finances. Behind the checks is a passport, your passport Jamie. You spent your whole life dreaming up all these places and experiences, without the grit to jump for them.
Well here is it Jamie, the Edge and ive just given you wings. Dont think about clipping them, because I took the liberty of purchasing open ended tickets to all the places you told me about, and then some.
Pack light, and hop the 7 O'clock to LAX. Someone will call at 6:45 to make sure you've gone. If you answer they'll drain the account and cancel the tickets.
I know it seems cruel. But surly you must know, ive done this all for your happiness. Some people are born to stake the fence and mow the lawn and pat the children on the head as they go off to school. But you were born to break the ocean Jamie. You have a beast in Your soul that you've silenced for far to long. Wake him up.
This is your chance my love.
A chance people would die for.
So Take it.
And dont worry, Eureka isn't going anywhere and Ill be with you all the way.
I love you Jamie
Enough to make you do this.
Everyone knows and everyone wants you to go.
So
What are you waiting for?
Sincerly,
Willy Baby
