Punctuation Power

Ever think a comma or a period could change the whole meaning of a letter? The power of punctuation is real. Take a look here for other examples.

Letter 1:

Dear John,

I want a man who knows what love is all about.

You are generous, kind, thoughtful. People who

are not like you admit to being useless and inferior.

You have ruined me for other men. I yearn for you.

I have no feelings whatsoever when we’re apart.
I can be forever happy-will you let me be yours?

-Janie

Letter 2:

Dear John,

All about you are generous, kind, thoughtful,

people who are not like you. Admit to being

useless and inferior. You have ruined me.

For, other men, I yearn. For you, I have no

feelings whatsoever. When we’re apart,

I can be forever happy. Will you let me be?

Yours,
Janie
