We've Got Mail — From Tanzania!

Today we received a new letter from Elizabeth David, one of our Kisa Scholars sponsored by our GIRLS WHO ROCK benefit concert in June. In November, we had sent her photos of the She’s the First Soiree, our benefit birthday bash that sponsored a girl in India, and she loved them!

How’s everything? I bet that you are all doing fine. Thanks for the pictures [of the She's the First Soiree]. I loved them so much and so did my friends. It looks like you guys has so much fun together during the party. I think I saw Shontelle in a lot of pictures or am I wrong? You girls looked nice and cheerful. So who are the other girls? Was Cheryl there? Give her my regard and for Shontelle tell her that I love her song ‘Impossible’. Now we are preparing for our exams and in a few weeks from now we will go home for the holidays, so I am writing about communication, religion and education this month. By the way, the renovation went well to our dorms look amazing and new.
Till next time
Elizabeth!

Communication
In my daily activities I always do my bet to communicate with other in a polite way and with a polite language. Because even myself, I don’t like someone to speak to me in a commanding way. I always remember to say words like ‘please, thank you, excuse me and sorry’. Sometime I may get a bit angry because someone has said bad things maybe but I do my best not to reply harshly or with hurtful words. So, it’s better to just keep quiet and leave for that moment.

Religion
My religion which is Christianity has a big influence in my daily life and decisions. Because whatever I decide or do, I make sure that it’s not against the principles of my religion or the bible. I try my very best to act in proper manner and everytime I recognize that I have sinned, I ask God for forgiveness. Also when I have to make a decision I ask for God’s guidance and wisdom so that I will make a wise decision.

Education
Education is important in my life because through it I get a lot of knowledge about me, my environment and other people’s environments. Also it is the key to my present and future success. Because without it there won’t be doctors, engineers, teachers or lawyer. It’s through education that we can get understanding and a better life away ignorance. In my community, education is very important because it helps people to find ways of solving some problems arising in our community like environmental pollution, diseases, poverty and unemployment. Also education creates awareness to people.

Please leave a comment with a message back to Elizabeth. We’ll send it along!

    Hi Elizabeth ~ It was nice to hear from you. No I was not at the Soiree, but it sure looks like everyone had a great time! I am sure by now you are headed home for the Holidays, or will be within the next few days. Have a very Merry Christmas with your family and wish you all the best in the New Year. I loved reading your writings on Communication, Religion and Education. You have really got it all together and I just know the world is going to be a better place because of you. Give my best to Grace and Happiness.
