Title: Ruth posts a message from John!!!

My friend Ruth is on the Goo Street Team and she posted a letter from John on her MySpace page!

December 16th, 2008 - happy holidays!
happy holidays everyone,

I hope all is going well and you are where you want to be this season.

As you know these are trying times for a lot of people.

On top of the usual pressures of the holidays many people can't even make ends meet.

That's where we all need to step in and help.

This year more than any other in recent history there are so many in need... real, real need.

If you can, please reach out a hand as much as you are able.

We will all enjoy our holidays more.

Knowing we gave a little bit more of ourselves, that we watched out for our brothers and sisters
After all, that's what this time of year is all about (I know, so cliche... but really true)
I know I feel so blessed to have all of you in our lives.

Year after year, you have held us up (I'm speaking for Mike and Robby as well) and given us hope.

Hope, that what we say in our music still matters and that it helps in some small way.

You have cared about us when so many have given up on us.

You come to our shows, you bake us cookies, you give us letters and cards that break my heart.

Because they are written with so much love.

You sing along with me and it gives me strength.

It makes me feel like we still have a place in your lives.

Thank you so much.

That's why I'm asking you to extend that same kind of hope to others in this very difficult time.

I know you people, I know your generosity and your heart.

It's the one thing I always count on to get me through the rough times.

... hoping you get everything you want this holiday.

John

I didn't know it was on ggd.com...I only saw it when she posted it on her myspace page. But it's still a lovely letter from John to us!
