A woman writes to the man who loves her about the man who doesn't.
"Money. Every humiliation I have ever suffered was because of money. Every joy I was ever denied was because of money. Every dream I couldn't pursue was because of money. Every insult I had to suffer was because of money. Ever wish I couldn't fulfill was because of money. Every fear that made me cringe had to do with money. Every tear I couldn't hold back was because of sadness, anger, stress, despair, joy, happiness that money caused me. The lack of money. The worry for money. The need for money. The hope for money. The prospect of money. The security of money. The power of money. You love me, he owns me. Which is more important? If you don't know, I'll tell you. Owning. Loving takes you nowhere. Owning takes you to a lot of places. That's how it is. You say it isn't? I don't want to know."
