Where you at, Sam? How you holding up out there? What’s on your mind right now, I wonder?
Remember when you first paid me a visit? You know, when I was plumb out of meds and knocking on death’s door? Well, you may have given me a little extension on the old lifespan – for which I’m grateful – but an extension’s all it was, and I reckon the bill’s about to come due.
Today’s dose’ll be my last. I’ve lived long enough. Seen enough. I got no real regrets, just gratitude for you and your kind. You brought me the things I needed, hooked me up to the network…helped me feel like I hadn’t been left behind…even if I had tried my best to make it so.
You’re fixing to rebuild the country, and countries mean borders… But right here and now, in this world without none of that, I feel…connected. And I like it.
See you round, Sam. Don’t let the bastards grind you down, you hear?
