Endearing notes from learners may not be uniquely Namibian. But their
love letter phrasing just might be.
And while Jessica has piles of these colorful correspondence stacked
in her new flat, my first learner letter came as a bit of a
surprise--albeit a pleasant one.
After all, who doesn't like to hear they are loved?
Dear Miss Jill,
I just wanted to tell you that I love you. I have a small message.
This is the message that I give you. If days can not allow up to see
each other memories will. And if my eyes cannot see you my heart will
never forget you. Life is a journey not a destination. Enjoy your day.
This letter means you are my mother. Please write back. Please.

It's been a while, but let me continue with my promise to contrast your every observation with what's going on in New York. Here it is customary to receive letters that say "this letter means you are my father."
Interesting.
