Oh @shibasaki! First of all, I'm so sorry to hear about your health and heart problems, and I hope that this hospital visit fixes it!

Second, you never have to be sorry! You are an amazing artist and you try to share your talent. I think that every artist has to discover who they are and cannot simply imitate your work; they have to learn from you and then be the best artist that they can be ... they cannot be you :)

Third, and most importantly, I would be honored to be your friend, and in fact, I already consider you as such :) I know that you are an amazing artist, and now I also know that you are a grandfather, but I'm also very interested in learning more about you as a person. I think that you have a very special heart and soul, like most artists do, and I can't wait to communicate more details with you.

Steemit, and life really, is about opening up and making yourself vulnerable; that is very difficult for many, but I believe it is totally worth it!

Your friend,
Lynn
