a rough patch

John,
I've been listening to your music for about a year now. The past month has been extremely hard for me, i've made mistakes that i regret making, i might have lost the one person that i love the most. The worst feeling is the feeling of uncertainty, i had the perfect life and it all came crashing down in a few hours. It's an experience that i'm ashamed of and i want to not only better myself from but also contribute to people that have been through the same situation. Listening to your music has helped me get through it, songs such as "Heaven" and "Everybody Knows" describe exactly what's going on. I have began living life based on Ghandi's non-violence methods and it has been satisfying, now if i can just get the girl that i love back i'll have the perfect life again.
Your word's are not only inspirational but also supportive, and i would like to personally thank you for sharing your music with all of us.

Pride(in the name of love)

I love your music and message! I think this has been a phenomenal campaign and it truly makes a difference. I believe that to acknowledge certain challenges that face people in essence helps all of us.

Blessings and Love,
Dawn

P.S Look forward to seeing you in Chicago.

Hey John,

I've wanted to tell you that i love your music and i consider you a complete artist.Your voice leads me in the morning..afternoon or late in the night.Specially late in the night when the smooth voice it's like honey to my heart and it's a wonderful closing of the day.
I've listened many of your songs and from each one it comes a lot of soul,love your message.
Actually i'm listening one of my favourites right now "Let's get lifted"..though i have so many songs of yours that i love.
I wish that i could see you live in one of your concerts.

Blessings and keep going in your path up high,
Carmen (Bucharest-Romania)

I have a wonderful t-shirt that shows we are one race human. I would like to send it to you as a gift but I am not sure where I need to send it. Can you please let me know a PO box or private address where I can send it?

I know you probably don't read these, because you are a busy man.
But, I love your music. My boyfriend loves your music, even more so than I do. I would give anything for you to come to Louisiana and play. It would rock his world, and mine. Your music is good for the soul. I pray that I could give him that, the joy of seeing you live. New Orleans, the birthplace of jazz. This city feels deeply. If you came to Louisiana, I would croak over and die. (:

But in all seriousness, you're probably never going to read this. and I'm probably talking to myself. Please. I'm begging you.
