Mario outside the Project Read office
Hello Adam Asmula,
My name is Mario. I live in Oakland California in the United States. Oakland is the city and California is the state. Oakland is a famous city because a lot of famous people come from here. People like 2Pac the rapper, the Black Panthers and many more. I like living here because the weather is very good. It doesn’t get too hot or too cool.
I am a young man that’s trying to live a healthy honest life. I have no kids yet but I am hoping to have some one day. Until then I am just trying to better myself as a person. Life has so many ups and downs. When you think you have it bad someone else has it worse. No one lives a perfect life in this world.
Adam, I know that life is hard in your part of the world. Hang in there, things will get better one day and you will make it better for others. Be a leader not a follower. Keep praying to God and do the right things. Help others if they are in need of help. Take advantage of all the education you can get. Life will get easier if you are educated. Believe in yourself and stay focused. Any dream you may have can come true if you work hard to make it come true. Also try to learn how to read and write. Adam Asmula, maybe one day we will meet. Take care my friend.
Sincerely,
Mario St.Rose
