Informal Letter

Dear Mr Doi Syunsuke,

I am Lek Hong, a Singaporean. A saddened member of the public from the Japan earthquake. Your strong pillar of support. Your friend. On 11 March, we both lost something precious. You, your family, and me, another human in the world. I am appalled by the destruction caused by the earthquake and tsunami. I fear for the state of Japan due to its current nuclear disaster. I know that you are in a state of depression, as you probably felt like you lost your reason to live, but remember, we, the world, are behind you. Your sad fate has been retold numerous times over the world, and we would like to express our deepest condolences to you.

But don't give up.

I can imagine the despair and grief you must be feeling right now.Live goes on, whether you want it or not, so make the best out of it. You must pick yourself back up when you fall. Around the world, Japan is famous for its earthquake preparations. The people are calm, and do not panic. Currently, people around the world are donating funds to help in the reparation works, and hopefully, their help will reach you. Live, not just for the sake of yourself, but for the sake of your family. The last thing your family wants to see you is wasting your life just because of the earthquake. You have to look at the brighter side of things. Rebuild your life, don't live in anticipation. Things will turn out fine.

My heart follows you. May you , like Japan, be a rising sun!

Regards,

Lek Hong, just another silent supporter
