Dear Friends,

So there's this dog named Max. I am not gonna really go into the details of Max's life because well they aren't important. (And also I wouldn't want to say something that is not true and stir up controversy. You all know Max. You all have your own oppinions of Max) So anyway, Max is walking along the road one day and he meats a Rat named Fred. Fred needed some food and asked Max if he would give him some. Although Max only had a limited supply Max agreed because Fred said he would pay him back in a week. One week later Fred fled the city with out paying Max back the food. So Max strived on. He kept smiling and kept walking...as Max does. One day Max went to go get some more food from his food dish and it was gone. Max found out that his friend Laura the elephant had taken it and wouldn't give if back. Max, foodless, smiled and kept on walking...as Max does. Trying to scrounge up
some food from the streets Max stumbles upon another dog. This older dog named Sam, promised Max some food at the end of the week. So Max waited patiently for some food but, at the end of the week he was left with nothing. At this point, everyone in neighborhood didn't like Max anymore. They all thought he was a mangy (sp?) old street dog that nobody should care about because all he did was complain about them. But, that's not how it was at all. See, over the years Max was given food by many differant
humans...all of which he greatly appreciated. The only people he was upset with was Fred the Rat....Laura the Elephant and of course Sam the older Dog. But, at this point in Max's life...it didn't matter. Everyone had excommunicated him out of there lifes because of some sort of preconceived notion that he hated them first.

Well, Max is hungry now. And lonely out there on the streets. But, I received a letter from him just a few days ago (written in dog-language of course)(yah...I can read dog....can't everyone?) The note said said:

Dear everyone,

I just wanted to let the following people know that I forgive them for wrongs they may or may not have consciously or unconsciously bestowed upon me.

Fred the Rat
Laura the Elephant
Sam the Older Dog

And furthermore, I wish everyone that was and still continues to be a friend to me the best in there lives because they have all made me feel special in a way.

As for me. In light of my new circumstances. I am gonna do the only thing I know how to do....keep smiling and keep walking.....as Max does.

I love you all

Woof
