Dear me:
How’s everything with you recently? After your graduation from university, I do worry a lot for you. Without doubt, on the top of my “care” lists about you would be your job. I heard that you are now doing something that you have not done before, so so far do you handle it well? At least, I give no doubt for that. You are always be the apple of mom and dad’s eyes and they are absolutely proud of you. As for me? I’m not sure. I think I’d rather wait and see what else can you show me in the near future. You can call me prudish ,but all I want is to see you take your life seriously. Back to the job thing, do you remember last weekend you cried just because mom said you shouldn’t push yourself too hard ? To be honest, later I did laughed at you a little, but you have to admit that you are nothing but still a girl who’s certainly somehow refuse to grow up. However, at the meantime, I do agree with you in some way. After all, life is full of choices. A girl like you who used to choosing to be mean to herself will surely suffers more from reality. I heard that you’ve been reading a lot recently, so what’s your favorite kind, novel or modern literature? Unfortunately, I’m everything but a “literature girl”. However, right now I do have a poem that I’d like to share with you:
Dream
--- By Allan Houston
Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die
life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams,
For when dreams go
life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.
You know, somehow I start to understand the reason you cried. It’s because you still have dreams so that when face with realities you fight and you struggle with nothing but your instinct. I have to say I’m quite happy for you. I wonder when can you get the final answer of your life in the future? Of course, nobody knows including yourself. While, I do get another poem for you to answer that.
Life
--- By Allan Houston
Life can be good,
Life can be bad,
Life is mostly cheerful,
But sometimes sad.
Life can be dreams,
Life can be great thoughts;
Life can mean a person,
Sitting in court.
Life can be dirty,
Life can even be painful;
But life is what you make it,
So try to make it beautiful.
Dear me, nobody know what his or her life will be in the future or in the end? But guess what, life is what you make it. Everything you do now will decide your life in the future. What an amazing news! You are the person who owns your own life eventually. I know you are a smart girl, so why not try to make it beautiful! One more thing, did you eat alone at home again? Don’t be surprise, people talk. I used to be the kind of person who always wear this “sad face” . Like you, the person I used to be more tend to think negative and act negative. Well, luckily I didn’t end “negatively”. A friend’s mom once said something which I still keep it in mind. She said: “Actually, when you are alone, it’s a pretty easy thing for you to take care of yourself , but at the same time, it’s also damn easy for you to take yourself down. So the first thing to cheer yourself up is never put yourself in the ‘me time’ condition too long , or you may get a ‘breakdown’ like a machine.” I’m totally with her. I believe that as long as you are not alone, even if you are not successful, you are never be a loser. How about buy a dog for a start of your healthy lifestyle? A cute dog keeps you company but most important thing is that you get a new responsibility even a new burden now. what else can I say? You are young , so act like one.
Dear me, sorry for being such a motor mouth, but you have to understand that I haven’t received your letter for a long time. So last thing, this time do remember to write me back.
Best wishes for everything.
From me
