Dear Son
There's only one thing I know about life.
I know some things happen by chance,
And some things happen because we make them happen.
Barry Allen was a man haunted by his past.
But when he became the Flash, he left the ghosts behind.
He found love. A Family. Friends.
Barry thought yesterday was behind him...
...But somebody wouldn't let him escape it.
When Barry came to me for help, I turned him away.
I'm not the hero of this story.
I'm a man who's been corrupted by his own unbearable pain, I'm a man who has too much blood on his hands to be called good.
I'm a man who had nothing to live for...
...until the day I met the Flash.
The first time I met Barry Allen, I nearly killed him.
Like I said, I'm not the hero of this story.
Love Always

Dear son:
I only know one thing about life.
Some things happen purely by accident, and some things happen by us.
Barry Allen was a man who was troubled by the past.
But when he became the Flash, he left the past behind.
He found true love, family, and friends.
Barry thought he had been left behind yesterday...
...But some people don't want him to be free from it.
When Barry came to me for help, I turned him down.
I am not the protagonist in this story.
I am just a person corrupted by pain that I cannot bear.
I'm just a person whose hands are covered with blood and cannot be called a good person.
I was born without love...
...Until I met the Flash.
When I first met Barry Allen, I almost killed him.
As I said before, I am not the protagonist of this story.
Your father
Thomas
