š«µ A good news for Alex is great news for us all!
Jun 06, 2023
Hey,
I hope youāre doing well! Weāre already in Juneā¦! I just canāt believe it! It was so great to share a live moment with some of you last Saturday for theĀ astonishing and very generous draw from Studio B! Alex Henry Foster in grand style! I need to share a funny thing with you, quick true story here:
I was ready to go live and Alex showed up in studio B like 20 minutes before showtime, and asked me what I was about to give away. āIām giving away the print test vinyl?!ā And of course, he followed by saying āThatās it?!? You should give away a piece of each item. People have been so amazing to me sharing so many gifts and messages of all kinds, donāt be shy to be generous and give some gifts away!ā Typical Alexā¦! I shouldāve seen this coming miles away...! š§
I truly enjoyed putting my hand in this huge and deep jar five times rather than a single time! If you missed it, you shouldĀ check it out since maybe your name came out!
So, here I am! Itās Sunday morning as Iām putting those words down, since I didnāt find the time prior to this morning, between the hospital and putting all those amazing packages together, making sure theyāll be ready to be shipped this week for you to receive it as quickly as possible! Iām listening to The Oh Sees Live at Levitation while writing this missive as Iām on fire following what has been such a great last few days with Alex at the HQ, something that hasnāt happened since last fall. And to see Alex in such a glorious vibe all week long while he was writing those 200 letters to you all..! The best part of it all is to see him wanting to add as many gifts as he possibly can into your orders! Iāve never seen anything like it, and not even close to it.
He has notes over notes of everything he has already sent you as a gift, and he spends countless hours comparing it to what we still have in the warehouse, and to the maximum weight your package can reach before the price simply explodes to an insane level. But itās so inspiring and beautiful to watch how much he likes to give without counting. To Alex, simply knowing he can make someone happy is all it takes to make him happy, such a true and pure joy, kid-like, it always makes us all speechless and feel like we all failed our what-truly-matters-in-life exam! š«£
Following the title of this letter, it would be easy for me to say Alex was so generous following the great news the hospital gave him last week, but itās not true. This truly is who Alex fundamentally is and how he acts towards the ones he deeply loves no matter the circumstances!
I know I was supposed to share about how this now-immortalized version ofĀ The Pain That BondsĀ came to life, but since the shipping setup was looking so great in our church-studio, I decided to share parts of what our week has been made of prior to leaving for London in order to ship the most of it all!
Iām leaving for London today with Alex as youāre reading this letter (or maybe Iām already there)! We had to come here to meet some people who will be crucial for whatās to come and Alexās doctor said it was all right for him to go if he was being careful, which will be my main task and responsibility throughout the following days! Donāt worry, I was the one carrying the huge shipping bags and this includes Alexās personal suitcase!
Iāll share parts of our journey with you on online! See you next Tuesday!
Letās be great to one another!
Your Host and Friend,
Jeff
