Dear Mabel,
by Luis Humberto Valadez

                             
    
    In response to your query “A good body shape could bring me the luck”:
    
    Sometimes, I fathom the Earth is a good could brought about by the lack of a good 
    shape. A GOOD body shape could bring me the luck. 
    
    A could is a questioning body bringing to luck good seams, like a pencil drawing luck 
    may be the Earth calling for a cloud may be a toddler who embodies with  out  
    shape. A good body shape COULD bring me the luck.
    
    Sometimes, I fathom the Earth is brought into question by me.
    
    Me is a toddler with a pencil calling a could drawing shapes bringing bodies lucking 
    into money I think me is. A good bring I also think is a good body bringing me to a 
    good bring, but I do not think me is a good body. A good body shape could bring ME the luck.  
    
    Sometimes, I fathom a shape is me.
    
    Good shapes through the luck of a good body maybe better than a good could may 
    be is the luck of a good bring making money bringing us to brought bodies with 
    shaping pencils. 
    
    								I hope you is going well. 
    
    								Luis
