aj,
hey sweetheart! how have you been? getting better i hope. ever since i was 7 years old i have admired you. during the last 8 years i have been a huge fan. i have everything that is bsb. i have always been a fan of you mostly because you are so different and not afraid to be. i went to my 1st bsb concert on june 22 in ohio. you actually waved at me out of the tour bus window.( i was wearing a leopard cowboy hat;-) ). that made my entire night just to know that u know that i'm out here. being a die hard BSB fan. the concert was amazing. i would never had known that you were dealing with so many things. when i heard the news i just cried cause i didn't think that a pop star could go through things that i have also. i'm glad that u are getting help. i know in my heart and soul that you will get better. all the aj fans around the whole word can back me up when we say that we love you and can't wait til you get back. i know there isn't a fan out there who wouldn't do anything in our power to get u better. i pray for you each and every night. and i will continue to do so until i hear that you are you are out of rehab. if you oare reading this your fans love you! especially me! i hope you get better soon! we miss you! my prayers are with you and your family. denise-- you've raised a great son. good job mom! good luck to you also! i love ya both!love always,

Hey AJ!!!! Ever since that day that the boys went on TRL I have had you in my thoughts and prayers! I really hope you are getting better and that you will be able to hit the road again! But first of all you have to take your time and get yourself healthy again!!! All of your fans are behind you 100% and we aren't going anywhere! You guys are such role models for coming forth and telling your fans the truth. That took a lot of courage but it was a good thing that you did!! It just goes to show that THE BACKSTREET BOYS are the best that the pop music industry got and no one can stand in your guys way! Just remember that yourself comes first and get better! Because there is no BSB without you!!!!!! MUCH LOVE!!

Alex,I already made an entry, but I wanted to add how much I admire you and the other guys going public about this whole thing. I know how hard that was to do, since there is so much competition with the other pop groups out there. It just goes to show that you are the orignals! That your honest and your fans appreciate that.
Know that our family will stand behind you no matter if you make it out before your first dated concert! Take care of YOU. The fans will understand!!

Dear A.J,
Drugs are great...but only in given amounts. I am sorry that you had a problem but I, which i prolly speek for everyone when I say that, it takes a man to realiz you have a problem but an even bigger man to realize you had a problem and do something about it. I am glad you did something about it because there are do many people,male and female, that look up to you. I, being a teenager know a bunch of people who do drugs, one of which who sticks out because he is one of my good friend. He, as well as yourself has a problem, but unlike yourself, he realizes he has a problem but doesnt care. He told me one time that he does want to be straight with god and all but he prolly wont do it until hes 25..given that he doesn't o.d or wutever until then, but its really sad because ya know wut if he does die?? Is he gonna go to heaven?? The way he is prolly not, and that isn't cool. I dont noe why I am saying all of this...I guess its just that, even though I have never really met any of you guys and prolly never will, I, along with all of your other fans care alot about you!! Just know that all of your fans here in North Carolina are here for you and your in our prayers all the time. Oh yea before I go...trust in god, and he'll be there for you all the way..trust me I know, and we are all proud of you getting help before something bad happens. Well I guess thats all..I just dont know wut to say...Good Luck..to all of you!! Luv all of ya!!

Hi Alex, It's me again, well I just wanted to tell you this:I believe- that sometimes when I'm angry, I have the right to be angry,but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
I believe- that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
I believe- that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.
I believe- that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
I believe- that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.
I believe- that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
I believe- that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.
I believe- that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.
I believe- that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.
I believe- that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.
I believe- that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you will find the strength to help.
I believe- that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.
I believe- that the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon.
I believe- that we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
I believe- that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
I believe- that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
I believe- that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.
I believe- that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.
I believe- that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
I believe- that you can keep going long after you can't.
I believe- that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
I believe- that either you control your attitude or it controls you.
I believe- that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first,the passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place.
I believe- that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
I believe- that money is a lousy way of keeping score.
I believe- that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.
I believe- that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.
Love...
Simar.
