Each writer had a special message for Amy. Through the cards and letters from strangers, Amy glimpsed a world full of people who truly cared about each other.

Dear Seth, 
You‘re only three years old, and at this point in your life you can‘t read, much less understand what I‘m going to try to tell you in this letter. But I‘ve been thinking a lot about the life that you have ahead of you, about my life so far as I reflect on what I‘ve learned, and about my role as a dad in trying to prepare you for the trials that you will face in the coming years. As with my advice, take it with a grain of salt. What works for me might not work for you. But someday when you‘re ready, I hope you will find some wisdom and value in what I share with you.

You are young, and life has yet to take its toll on you, to throw disappointments and heartaches and loneliness and struggles and pain into your path. You have not been worn down yet by longs hours of thankless work, by the slings and arrows of everyday life. For this, be thankful. You are at a wonderful stage of life. You have many wonderful stages of life still to come even if they are not without their costs and great dangers. 
62. _____________________________ 
There will be people in your life who won‘t be very nice because you‘re different, or for no good reason. There‘s not much you can do except to learn to deal with them, and learn to choose friends who are kind to you, actually care about you, and make you feel good about yourself. There will be times when you are met with disappointment rather than success. Life won‘t always turn out the way you want. But instead of letting these things get you down, push on. Learn to turn negatives into positives. You‘ll also face heartbreak and abandonment by those you love. I hope you don‘t have to face this too much, but it happens. Let these pains become stepping stones to better things in life and learn to use them to make you stronger.
