different kinds of thoughts circled through his head but then he remembered something that happened NUMBER_TOKEN years earlier in the year NUMBER_TOKEN being a seven-year-old boy tyrell took part in the operation christmas child project the boy filled an empty school box with some toys school supplies and small souvenirs as well as a handwritten letter and his own photo and cowboy clothes and sealed the box securely the next morning the boy's parents delivered it to the local church from where it was sent to less fortunate children from other parts of the world along with hundreds of other boxes from even more caring people coincidentally the box with the boy's gifts soon ended up in a poor family in the philippines that very box packed by the boy from idaho back in NUMBER_TOKEN would mark the beginning of a beautiful story which could make for a great movie someday years past from a little good-natured boy wolfe grew up into a mature young man with his own life views of course he had long forgotten about that package that he had sent so long ago and he didn't even suspect that there was someone on the other side of the ocean who still remembered his gift you have probably already guessed that the mysterious stranger named joanna was the girl from the filipino family who had received the little tyrell's box he could barely even remember that story since he was so young at the time but after telling his mother about it he was shocked surprisingly his mother immediately remembered that gift box she told me affectionately how i packed that box and how much love there was in my eyes my mom said that i meant it for a boy like myself i even included my favorite markers with a note in which i wrote that i wanted to meet him someday what else could a seven-year-old boy have written tyrell later recalled with a smile that moment marked the beginning of a long and interesting interaction between these two people joanna and tyrell's lives have changed drastically since they first came in contact the young man who used to spend his free time with friends now spent all his time thinking about the girl who was so far away they could text each other for days on end and it seemed like they had known each other forever they talked like that for a whole year it went very smoothly as the two of them turned out to have a lot in common after a year of this virtual relationship they decided that they wanted more i couldn't help myself i desperately wanted to see joanna in person i took a job at a construction site and a couple of months later i managed to save up enough money to go to manila where joanna lived it's also worth noting that the trip was tough for tyrell first of all he had never gone so far from home before and second of all he had no idea if he would be welcomed there however the anticipation of meeting joanna gave him confidence and strength when the plane took off i breathed a sigh of relief as i was walking through the halls of the airport my eyes were looking for joanna i had imagined our first meeting plenty of times but when i saw her my heart burst into flames full of new feelings at that moment i realized that it would be more than just a friendship tyrell added and he turned out to be completely right their
