ONE

Dear Mother Teresa,
Your last letter has been a surprise to me. I have never in my life have been so embarrassed. I apologize if you see my actions as sinful; however please note that it is uncontrollable. I do not see stealing the delicious cereal as evil. If I can come clean about anything I would like to confide in you about a little secret of mine. I believe I have an addiction, an addiction to that scrumptious fruit-flavored cereal. It drives me crazy. I need it. I must have a bowl of those Trix for every meal. My diet has become very unbalanced these past years. All the other rabbits are ashamed of me. I am the only one who does not like crunchy carrots or stiff grass. I need help. I don’t know what to do. I am having trouble being accepted and accepting myself for who I am. Then I get a letter from you telling me that my actions are sinful. That stealing from little kids is wrong. And it is too a certain extent, but only if you could understood. I can’t live without it. I would never hurt the child. I just want the cereal, like I said before I need it. Please help me. Tell me what I should do. I need your assistance. Please do not look down upon me for this, I can’t control myself. I hope all is well and that we can arrange a time to get together. Have fun in Ethiopia this coming week.

Sincerely,
“The Trix Rabbit”
