What you are about to read is a key letter from Zelda to Link from my upcoming book "Utopia." It is a futuristic book about a girl in the future playing a game/simulation based on the life of a 36 year man trying to find his way in life and love during the pandemic in 2020.

It is a book about overcoming fear, self love, and forgiveness.

Please consider a tip in order for help me cover the editing and publishing costs of what I hope to be an inspiring and magical book!

Tally-ho!

----------------------------------------

Link,

You are back! In 1982, you passed on from a previous life.

Two years later, after a careful review of your life, you came back on March 23rd, 1984.

You were born into a troubled life with a broken family.

You FORGOT your purpose, your destiny. You allowed the childhood trauma consume your heart and soul, and you forgot how to love yourself and others again.

You forgot how good you were at sports. And everything.

You let something as silly as a "no' set you back from fulfilling your dream as an actor. A kicker. A pitcher. You forgot.

You let a broken home and mistrust and trauma send you down the wrong path; the wrong road.

You let the anger, pain, and frustration watching the events unfold on 9/11/2001 turn the tides.

Yes, you joined the Army and that is heroic. You changed so many lives along the way, but again, you became broken with your ex and the jump that changed everything.

I am so sorry you had to go through all that, but after nearly 37 years, you FINALLY figured it out and got things back on track.

I know how hard it was. I know you hit rock bottom more times then you can count.

You TRIED to take your life from yourself. Thank GOD that you were unsuccessful.

But that event, all the events, the mistakes, the sorrows, got you back on the RIGHT path! The path you were meant to travel from the start.

When rivers hit a rock, a tiny event caused simply by someone from the past throwing a stone into the center, it forges a new path over time, and thats all that those 37 years were; an alternate branch in the river.

Ultimately, however, you found your way back, and you are on the BRINK of financial freedom, love, and happiness. It won't be long until all the lights turn green, the flood gates open, and the road finally, FINALLY, gets easy.

That old life is behind you. It's in the rearview. You have PROVEN you can overcome everything this "game" has thrown your way. It wasn't easy. It was damn hard. But you are doing it; you DID IT!

So keep pushing forward, keep watering the seeds, and keep loving.

Because that dream life, the next 46 years, are within reach.

This is the final countdown. Once you are able to pay that last $400 for your rent, everything will be settled. You just have to make it happen.

You already know you do it, because you feel the calm, and you have the confidence to fly, even if the branch breaks.

It's going to be PERFECT.

Then, when the gates open, you can start paying down your debts, fixing the wrongs, and perfecting the rights. You can continue the path of happiness and you will be ready to trust and love that special person with all that you are; a MAN! A real man in a troubled world.

You can make your house a home. Then, when the lease is up, you will be ready to start the next chapter of your journey. That will be the end of the first book and the start of the next.

The narrative that you write will find its own success and will be a guide book for others who have lived a similar life. And for generations, people will read your book and know how life works and how to do it right.

When you finally pass on from this life in 2067 as a successful 83 year old man, you will have two years again, to review this life, and be born yet again in 2069 (lol) and do it all again.

Third time will be the charm, and you'll have your own book to help remind you the right path. You'll have the technology of that time to help you even more. And it will be PERFECTION from start to finish. No need to fear death, because you now know when it ends.

So, lets continue making THIS life the best it can be! You are doing a wonderful job and we are all so very proud of you! You are AMAZING.

I love you, Link; we all do.

NOW GET THERE!

Your friend on the other side,

Zelda

P.S. But you already knew all of this, now didn't you?
