Dear Gayatri

Hello! Hope to find you in good health. I came to know that you have failed in 3 subjects in the semester exams. I can relate to your situation given the fact that you have remained the class topper throughout your academic career.
Please have courage and remember that nothing is permanent. One exam cannot decide your acumen and we all know that the low marks are due to your family problem. The situation will get sorted with time so you must keep patience. Recently I read a story of two young boys who worked really hard to pay for their sister’s treatment. Their story really inspires us to work hard and have courage. Then I read another story of an old coachman who never lost hope and visited the post office in the hope of getting a letter from his daughter, till his last breathe. Such inspiring tales motivate us to struggle and not lose hope.
I am sure that you will evoke your fighter spirit and bounce back to give your best shot.
Wishing you good luck!

 

Yours Truly
Navya.
