I have the best nieces and nephews in the world and you're saying right now of
course I'm going to say that since every uncle feels that way but the truth is
that I am convinced that they are in fact the best in the world. They don't
watch my videos anymore or look at my pictures anymore not because they don't
want to but because they're all so involved in the business of making a
living they simply have no time they are now catering to their own families but
when they were younger their years without families off their own they
would each and every one they would make me feel like a king they would in fact
make me feel that of what I do had value even when I just threw some snapshots
together as in this video they would still make me feel like I was a creator
I am old now and they are all so much older too yet each time I have that very
rare privilege of being in their company individually or as a group I'm still
made to feel that I have some worth they call me UD and yes I have the best
nieces and nephews in the world but there's something else the virtual world
and here I have real people who react to what I do and again I'm made to feel
like a man with values one little boy in the United Kingdom sent me a message
that just tore my heart out he said he said that his father hates him because
he has sickle cell anemia hate was his word but in spite of how his father
feels about him he tries each and every day to see what I have posted on the
internet he especially like the silly videos what I call fillers like this one
because it makes him feel as if I'm actually talking directly to him not
above him or around him and he said he pretends that the video was made just
for him well this video was made specifically for him as silly as it is
because of what this young man does for me gives me purpose so young man in
England and any young person anywhere this video was made for you of course
is silly but I don't care do you besides you hear my voice you see the
pictures nature pictures of course it's my passion and you know that I'm real I
should also let you know that I think you too are a very precious person and
I'm very grateful for the compliments you have paid me so what if only ten
people see this video if one of the ten happens to be you then please accept my
gratitude and my sincere thanks for you being you and yes a very resounding yes
I will always read your email thank you very very much
