Dear Omar,
I hope you are in good health and everything is going well in your life. I really wanted to talk to you about your studies from a long time. I totally understand that this matter is considered a private affair, I hope for your patience and forbearance. I still remember that you used to ignore your home works and were not interested in your studies when you were young. I want to be honest with you, and I do not want to conceal anything from you at this moment. Actually, I received a letter from your brother about your further studies.
A person without knowledge is considered nothing in these days. A person’s success depends moreover upon his knowledge and education. In addition, university degree, fortunately or not, plays a vital role. Getting an education and getting knowledge is the fundamental logic of everyone’s life. No matter what you study, the only way to become successful in life is to have knowledge about the thing that you do, speak or behave. A man, who graduates from a good school of business, has a better possibility to be hired by reputed companies with a fine job and well-paid salary. Once a person is settled with good job and good salary, he gets the respect in the society. You will face no difficulty in fulfilling your needs and wants because you will be earning handsome salary once you complete your studies. Your desires and dreams will no longer remain unfulfilled because you can make your dream come true with the money that you earn. Not only being knowledgeable lands you in good job, your friends circle will be of high quality. Intellectual and high profile people will be around you, which will be obviously the matter of pride. With the highest-level knowledge, you can be independent in establishing your own way of life.
It becomes very easy to convince people around you, and your ideas will be easily established in the society. There will be many people following you, and you can be an idol or a role model for them. This is also a very good opportunity to meet new people and strengthen the personal relationships with them in college and also in workplace. In addition, let me tell you, it helps you to get married because “well-settled” is all that matters. Your family life will be easy and happy because the competent and qualified women wants to marry with educated men. So, it will help you to get married with educated girl, and it will be easy for you to educate your children without facing any problems.
Getting knowledge and being an educated man will develop you emotionally. As I said earlier, by knowledge, you will get good job and earn more money, which helps you to be happy. Trust me, happy life will make you emotionally strong. In addition, you can achieve you goals, so if you have a dream to start your own business you will be able to do it. You will get a happy family and that what’s every persons need in this life. If you graduate from your college, you will make your family proud of you.
According to “Thankful” by Samra Asfaw (2013/14), she talks about how her father focused in educating her because he wanted his child to be a knowledgeable and cultured person. Also by reading this essay, you will realize that education is the most important thing in the life. I encourage you to read this essay. At this stage of your life, you should think about your college. You are very lucky to get scholarship because there are many people who want to be in your place, but they cannot. According to “racial profiling” by Rae Jean Chatman (2013/2014), many people face a lot of problem because of their particular races. Right now, you are joining a college with scholarship, so make the best of this time. Once you are educated, nobody can dominate you just because of your race or ethnicity. Education is itself the strongest weapon to fight with. My point is get the benefits from the other’s experiences because it will teach you many things you need. I recommend you to read more and more about others life.
You should think about your future more than anything else. Your university degree decides your future and the way your life will be. Be careful and give all you effort in your studies to make your life worth living. Do not waste your time in something else except your study. Your results or scores on it will decide your future. It will also determine the way for your life. Be careful and give your time and effort in the university activities to achieve your goals. This is the time for you to make your future. If you waste your time in useless things, then trust me you are going to suffer for the rest of your life. So, please use this time wisely to build your future and hard work done in this period will definitely pay you for rest of your life.
Sincerely,
Othman
