I forgive you. I'm not upset, I don't want revenge. I'm not sure why you stole my computer, and I feel really bad that if I know you that you couldn't come to me and talk things over. Regardless of whether you took my computer because you were spiteful of me or because you needed money, I want you to know that it doesn't matter to me. I just feel bad that if you needed something so desperately that you felt that you had take something which is very important to me.
I don't have much, but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't have been willing to help you out. If you needed to borrow some money all you had to do was ask. If you didn't like the work I was producing with my computer and wanted me to stop, I would have been more than willing to talk it over.
Perhaps you don't know me and you just wanted my computer because of it's value... if that's the case I can tell you first hand that it is very valuable. It had six years worth of personal work on it. My computer is my livelihood. I couldn't have graduated from college without it, and I wouldn't have been able to support myself all this time without it. I can assure you that the contents of my computer are worth far more to me than any monetary gains that can be received from it's sale.
That being said, if you plan on keeping it please take care of it. If plan on selling it or have already sold it, I hope you enjoy what you purchase with the money you've received from it's sale. At the very least, I hope that it has been worth it to you. Seriously, I mean that.
If however you still have my computer in your possession and would like to consider returning it I am offering to let you do it anonymously. We can meet up at any time, and I promise I won't tell anyone it was you. Honestly, I'd rather have you as a friend than an enemy and if you could find it in yourself to meet with me face to face, I would consider that gesture very admirable. It is not my interest to ruin you or destroy your reputation. I simply want my computer back... Even if you no longer have my computer and would still like to meet up that's fine. Really, at this point it's all water under the bridge. What's done is done.
If you don't want to come to me right now, I understand. But seriously, if you ever want to, I can promise you that I will be accepting, I forgive you, and I bear no malice towards you. If you ever want to get in touch with me my phone number is 505.977.2477
take care,
Carlos
Originally from Albuquerque, New Mexico; Carlos enjoyed many years of bliss as an only child drinking Kool-Aid and spending time at Grandma's house playing with Legos. Making art and friends throughout elementary and middle school, his obsession with the Chicago Bulls was soon replaced by time spent adding to his massive collection of Star Wars paraphernalia. When he was 13 he began reading and drawing comics with his best friend Bryan Rountree. Sometime during the summer after his first kiss, he started waking up in the middle of the night very thirsty for orange juice or Pepsi. With a general lack of interest in other subjects, he decided to apply to Art school during his senior year of high school. Upon acceptance to MICA he ran off to Baltimore where he would soon become entranced by graphic design and popular culture.

In case you were wondering, the plethora of goodies I discovered on March 1st didn’t end with the Heinz Ketchup packets from my last post. My next find, two steps north of the condiments was the styrofoam lid of a McDonald’s Deluxe, BIG Breakfast, …
