when people ask me if i like to dance
Dear Taylor,
I first discovered you during the Fearless era when I was (ironically) 15. I blasted the album throughout my house so often that my dad even learned all of the words. Since then, you have been my role model and hero. I have listened to your music in times of sadness, happiness, hope, despair, and everything in between. I have followed your career with much admiration and have been an extremely loyal and enthusiastic fan. I’ve been lucky enough to see three of your shows and I have tickets to see two more during the 1989 tour.
I am now 21 years old and a senior in college. Over my Thanksgiving break, I was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, which is a type of cancer. Right now, I am waiting for my treatment to be determined and I am not sure if I am going to be able to go back to school. This is absolutely not how I saw my senior year of college going and I have been having a hard time dealing with all of this.
I have a long road ahead of me and I would love to be able to meet you or talk to you. Like I said before, your music and quotes have gotten me through hard times before and I know I will be looking to your work more than ever during this journey. Taylor, you truly have been an inspiration in my life thus far and it would be my absolute dream to hang out with you during this tough time.
Fearlessly,
Brooke
P.S. I couldn’t BE more excited that you’ve been talking about your love for F.R.I.E.N.D.S now because it’s two of my favorite things ever coming together.
P.P.S. I hope you get the Chandler Bing reference.
