What happens if a long-lasting friendship meets a new friend? Will the close bond stand strong? What happens if it goes beyond friendship? How will love affect everything? What does friendship and love mean to people? Can friends who lived side by side for years overcome that change?
The world is filled with many strangers we pass, yet somehow never forget. At times we smile with our eyes, laugh in our heads, express gratitude with our arms, and connect with our lips. In other cases, we yell from our lungs, drop tears through our lenses and bring a fire with our fists. Nonetheless, one thing must be said: We live in this world together. In "Dear Friend" we will experience the journey of different stages in our lives through letters written for all walks of life. Inspired by the people we have briefly crossed paths with and the Friends we have ever since made. Here, we all become Friends because each letter is written for you. To the Wild Flowers blooming in the dark, the loneliness that sits beneath our hearts, and the Lovers we have found and those we are yet to find. To the World. We express hand in hand with letters what we cannot express in the lapses of time. I hope this book can prove to be The Vessel For Our Thoughts.
