How are you? I hope you are in a good health and your life is fine. miss you so much and hope to see you soon.

I’m writing this letter to tell you about my life I finished my high school and I left the neighborhood and went to another city in the East where some of my cousins live. There I found a job and went to a college and I studied psychology. I’m now a psychologist in one of the biggest mental health clinics here. I’m also thinking of continuing my higher studies and get a higher degree. also found my dreams girl and we will get married next year.

My dear Mr. Cattanzara l want to thank you for your understanding and support for me, I know you were the one who told the people in the neighborhood about my reading

100 books. It was because of you that I changed and came out of my room that day and I was determined to change my life instead of just dreaming of changing it.

Thank you once more and by the way I sent you good books that I think you will like and I will visit you next year with my bride.

See you soon.

Yours,

George.
