A letter received by Stephen Melillo

Dear America,

Dear Brothers and Sisters, dear us, regardless of our height, our weight, our sex, our color, our race, our religion, our culture, our beliefs… Dear Us…

On a star-laden night, or perhaps on the greyest of all days possible, venture out.  Look up into the sky.  This letter is to Us.  Please read these words with me, your Brother.

Father in Heaven, please give the world a Peace we can never give ourselves.  In the darkest Darkness, let us always see Your Light, and in that Light, let us forever recognize that we are Brothers and Sisters joined in a wondrous experiment of recognizing the unique importance in each of us.

Thank you, dear Lord of all Creation.

Sincerely, We…

the American People.
