Re:
Happy Birthday to Buffy |
Dear Percy,
Thank you for your message to Buffy. I will pass it
on. I hope it helps. She seems determined not to
enjoy her birthday, although I find every day with her a
miracle. When I think of what she has survived, I am nearly
speechless with wonder. While I appreciate your thoughts
of me as well, I feel the credit must go to Buffy. She is
the strongest person I have ever known.
If you consider what all the single Slayers had to go through,
facing the demons every night while still but children, it is
overwhelming enough. But when I consider what else Buffy
has survived: losing her mother, taking on a sister
created from whole cloth (or magical energies as it were), dying
not just once, but twice, and all the while, averting apocalypse
after apocalypse, it amazes me that she can be still so vibrant
and loving! She has matured, cow-noises aside, into the
most wonderful young woman I could imagine. I am glad that
the Council is finally appreciating the miracle that is my
Buffy.
Regards,
Rupert
PS. I seem to be having some computer problems now, so I
am glad the message got through. The spam is becoming so
thick, that it is almost impossible to use the system. I
may need to change my address.
