i apologize for not being able to answer every wonderful letter that i have received from you ladies. i do my best to read them though, and i thank you for the love and caring that i can feel coming from you. i truly wish that i could marry every one of you and give you the life and families that you deserve. many of my friends here have said that they want a prince and to be a princess. i o not understand people very well. at first, i was sort of alienated by this kind of thought, but reading from you and writing as much as i can, i have come to realize what this thought really means. in america, it means that she would be a mean and demanding woman to her man. i have come to understand that from ukraine, it means that you have either grown up with a very loving family or you want that if you did not have it in your earlier life and in your current life, you want to live that way. i think that i now understand that eastern europe is where romance became reality. one of my friends is writing an article promoting the EUROVISION song contest. she tells of the architecture and the vibrancy of life there. one suggestion i would make is to somehow explain that the gold domes were part of your culture long before islam started using them. the other suggestion would be to somehow explain what i have been saying about the romanticism that is part of your culture. i have heard that american women do not like eastern european women. the obvious reason is your loveliness in physical looks, but probably the main reason is that women are much more perceptive than men, and they somehow feel the warmth and love inside each of you and realize that they are sadly lacking this feeling in their personalities. i am sorry that i . cannot write individual letters fora few more weeks. i am helping my daughter with her college expenses and when her work hours were greatly reduced, i am spending my extra money to help pay her rent and utilities. i do miss being able to write back to you . there is so much to talk about. i heard that one guy asked if he could tempt one of my friends with his yacht, his mansion and something else that i forgot. could i tempt anyone with a rowboat, a half finished house that is heated with a wood stove and a campfire in the side yard to cook marshmallos? oh...inna, i think you are correct to not mention the political difficulties in your article.
