Therefore I want to write you once as your son, how close and truly I adore you and stand by you. That must be said once; because orally I won't be able to', continuing 'I believe, I inherited from father, to appear a little bit business-like and that is - for me - every time sad. Though every time when I come, I am rather exhausted……in the face of the heavy problems I still face…..I get angry every time that I haven't been warmer, when I have been a few hours with you. Though I feel extraordinarily well and blissful at home and that is the main thing' and further writing 'I have to write you once: what big admiration I have for you; for the way you deal with your concerns, how you adjust with the surroundings and the war, how you deal with the sacrifices the war is burdening on you, and how you control yourselves externally and keep your feelings and emotions with you. I am going to think of you, here, some thousand kilometres away and I wish a good end to this war to all of us and for you a Christmas together with all your children'.
