Write an informal letter about making an important decision
Amanda [17]

Answer: hope this help

Dear ............:

I hope this letter finds you in great health and state of mind. Today I am sharing with you a difficult choice I recently made. Success in life is determined by the choices we make. All people live life; but wise people know how to live happily by knowing the art of making choices. It is true life is a conflict among choices that we face at almost all crucial moments. We have to make the best choice out of the options available in front of us.  

I had had my own grappling moments with conflicting situations in which I was torn between two choices. It was after my matriculation; I was not decisively clear as to what stream I must opt for. The burden of securing a lucrative career was pushing me to opt for sciences; but my heart’s voice was cautioning me to take up humanities. Finally, I listened to my heart’s voice. As a result of that crucial choice, I have been enjoying my life with moderate success in almost all spheres of my life. The best part is I feel I am in my own element.

The rest is fine. Do share any similar experience you had. Give parnam to uncle and aunt.  

Yours affectionately,

your name
