Hello Victor, thank you for your letter even though you are a bit depressed.  Thats how I felt when I lived in the United States in 1980...your going through a similar trayectory.  Life would not mean much to me unless I found and lived my UNIQUENESS.  I was not born to be a standardized person.  Its in nature that I found my energy renovating and in it my Uniqueness.  We are now entering the height of the tourist season in Boquete, its the ideal time for you to come even if its a short visit of less than 30 days-  I am planning one to two jungle walks in these mountains each week with my indian guide who was the official forest ranger for this area for 33 years until his retirement.  I also rented a one room apartment in Boquete differrent from where I live 30 miles out of town to stay several days a week for business purposes.  I have been assigned the task of installing a Herb Garden for the North American Association here, its where the gringos  have their weekly farmers and flea market.  This is the ideal time for you to come and visit.  Once you have been here for several weeks take a new reading on your life and you likely will find new purpose and reason for existing yet for that you should also come with FAITH that here you will discover your uniqueness and prosper both materially and spiritually-   Like I said I can handle  your food and housing while you are here.  Go into Boquete.org and google Frank Gruber, learn everything I have been up to recently, ignore any negative comments by some people, my over all mission in this area is succeeding.  Just arrive at the gran bus terminal in Panama city there immediately take the bus to David Chiriqui and call me while you are on your way there or email me before you travel as well.  From the City of David its a 30 minute bus drive from that terminal to Boquete.  I will meet you as you get off the bus in Boquete-  This is the tourist mecca many Americans enjoy each winter.  Before you travel send me your cell phone number, mine is 6798  4246.   By May I hope to retire for good into the mountains, this may be our last chance to meet. If you have a belief in God at all, all of what he wants for us is summarized in the first commandment, LOVE GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND SOUL AND FELLOW MAN AS YOURSELF.!  When we are depressed we should constantly pray the lords prayer and ask for guidance and inspiration and it shall come.  Ask him if you should come and visit me in the near future-  I am a survivalist, have learned to make poverty but a prick of a pin and in the worst of scenarios have learned to enjoy life...that is the attitude we need in loving ourselves.  In the states you as I where a fish out of water, an IDEALIST surrounded by a culture of pure materialism.  Hope to see you in person soon, LOVE your dad, Frank
