Just found a letter I wrote to a friend during my college days. In college you're reading a lot and feel smart. Meandering blather takes on the bloated heft of "Dialogues."
Here's a bit of the letter (responding to friend on "study abroad" in Ghana):
You wrote that I am immersed in the European Value System and that individualism is a strong force in my life. Perhaps these things are true, I am not sure how you define the E.V.S. or how you distinguish between an individualist and a communitarian. I am sure you have given the issue some thought, but I don't understand how you then are not an individualist, even if you don't capitalize your "I"s.
