I wanted to let you know that I love you very deeply.Suppose someone has made us sad. In some ways, he hasn’t made me sad so much as he has made all of you sad. But I don’t want to put this too strongly.He has been punished because most of you decided he should be. This punishment is enough.Now you should forgive him and comfort him.
