"I'm sorry to contact you out of the blue" the lawyer says. "I have to say this is one of the strangest requests I've ever had from a client. You see, I'm representing your biological mother. When she gave you up for adoption 30 years ago, this was her condition.
"I'm adopted?" The man asks
"Yes, but not only that. You have a long lost twin." The man is shocked."I've always felt there was a piece of me missing...." he muses. The lawyer shows him an envelope with the address of a P.O. box.
"If you want to contact your brother, you have one chance to write him a letter. This P.O. box is the only way of connecting you, and this envelope is the only copy of that address. If you'd like to contact him, you must write him a letter now."The man immediately begins writing a letter, in which he pours out his heart. His life story, his innermost dreams, yearnings, and thoughts, years of existential loneliness. By the time he finishes, he's in tears. He hands the letter to the lawyer who affixes a stamp, seals it in an envelope and hands it to a waiting mailman. However, just then, a huge gust of wind from the open window blows the envelope out of the mailman's hand and out the open window.
They both watch in horror as the letter blows away. Almost out of sight, it comes to rest at the feet of a Buddhist monk, busy repairing a fence, who picks it up and puts it in a mailbox.
The man rushes out to thank the monk for re-mailing the letter. .
"Don't mention it." the monk says
"You would be surprised at the amount of karma you get for reposting."
