this was sent in last night , and I wanted to post it , it’s a beautiful letter and hopefully Britney will see this and know not everyone is against her.
Dearest Britney,
Every day I wake up wishing I were just a pinch richer and had about an arms length more of freedom. I play and talk to my three boys until I simply talk gibberish to adults. I watch kiddie programs with them and go for long walks in the cold. Alone. No one follows me, no one cares what I do. I spend my Sunday mornings going to church (frequently) with a minimal amount of stares from the people who like to judge young mothers without “wedding” rings on their fingers. I make friends with whoever I click with and when we go out together our times are lazy and carefree. I can talk to who I want to, usually when I want to and I can tell my mother anything.
The funny thing is, you envy this. You envy this life I have, and I in turn have envied you for a long time. Recently I came to realise that I would never want to be in your shoes. That I have a great amount of empathy and compassion for you. That I would never like to live the life that you lead, with no privacy and no real freedom at all. I have had many a break-ups in my day and all of them were devastating at the time, some a far bit more then others. In fact some, I thought that I would literally die from the pain in my chest. I can’t fathom what it would be like to see it splashed all over the world with pictures to stare at you when you walk down the street. I can’t imagine what your life must be like, how low you could feel, how devastating to be watched like a criminal for any “mistake” you make that could make or break your career. You going out for a few drinks with friends is just normal suit here in my town, but for you it is a sin that is raved about for months later. You are simply unforgettable. People are obsessed with your life. People love you because you are real, and they have nothing better in their lives then to follow you around and speculate on your sins, however big or small they may be.
What you need to know is that you are a woman of integrity. You are a mother to two gorgeous little boys who want to grow up admiring their mother as the “woman in their lives”. You are a strong woman. You can get through this. You are not the woman in the magazines, you are a human being who is feeling miserable about herself because of what some asshole has made you feel. You need to get back to your Christian roots and cry on your mother’s shoulders again. You need to be there for your children or you will regret this for the rest of your life. You will get over him, “this too shall pass”, and you will lose your baby phat, and you are still as beautiful now as you were years ago, you are just a yummy mommy now. I can see that he has made you feel really horrible about yourself, that you loved him a lot, you trusted him and he let you down. He lied to you. I understand that you have to look like your happy to the world around you, you can’t come off as the “one who suffers” or “cries”, so you turn to other things to pull you through and mask your feelings. I understand the low feeling, I understand you. I have a great amount of respect for you as of recent. It is sad that it took you having to come to such a low point in your life for me to fully appreciate and admire you. I promise I will keep you in my prayers and continue to believe in you.
Sincerely,
A new fan
Martine Sansoucy
