Try to have some hope.

Hi! Mr. Thompson. You write a mighty sad journal. Listen, don't give up. Yes, maybe you have to liquidate a few of the straglers and non favorites from your collection. Don't go full hog, untill you really need too. We all go through bad and sad times. Hey, I just got autited by the tax man for two years. They came up with a very corny amount, and I never did anything wrong, Just their gross negligence. I'll get a lawyer and work it all through, even though I just want to run away. Even though we don't know each other, I'm always here to talk, as I am sure many others are too. Just send a message, and many will be sure to respond. Keep your chin up. Jay
