&ldquo;Right now, there are people all over the world who are just like you. They&rsquo;re lonely. They&rsquo;re missing somebody. They&rsquo;re in love with someone they probably shouldn&rsquo;t be in love with. They have secrets you wouldn&rsquo;t believe. They wish and they dream and they hope, and they look out the window whenever they&rsquo;re in the car or on a bus or a train and they watch the people on the streets and wonder what they&rsquo;ve been through. They wonder if there are people like them. They&rsquo;re like you, and you could tell them everything and they would understand. <br /> And right now, they&rsquo;re sitting here reading these words, and I&rsquo;m writing this for you so you don&rsquo;t feel alone anymore.&rdquo;
