My dear, It is always such a delight to read your flowery constructions and the flair with which you paint words with poetic delight is simply amazing. Thank you for describing me as wise and in truth I am extremely humbled to hear such words from an equally wise young woman.   I know there are a lot of your sisters who could not easily swallow the salient points in my last letter, but I am glad you got the message. Going natural or going light on make-up and artificial hair apparently is not as easy a lifestyle change as i hope it would be for our young African ladies. For me, it just goes to show how terrible the real situation of adulteration of our own culture has become. I am once again very glad you are willing to consider and take heed to my advice. My dear, this time, I want to talk to you about financial smartness. It is apparent frugality is a lost art in our current generation and I wish to alert you of this critical issue.

I keep reading and reading it. The wisdom in your construction and the humility with which you present even the most critical and controversial issues left me with awe and a deeper respect for your wonderful mind. My dear, I have listened carefully to your advice and admonitions and I have taken them very much at heart. I know irresponsibility is a major characteristic of young men of today and our lack of persistence and patience in the matters of life is also a worrying fact.

Sweetheart, please dress like your character and not like a character.   In this day and age of all manner of dressings, I plead with you to remain true to y...
