Dear Mr Jones,
I'm a student from the world class institution, Hwa Chong in Singapore, Tan Wei Jin. I read your article on Yahoo and was inspired to write a letter of encouragement to you. Before I go on, please send my belated birthday wish to your daughter.
As a British national magazine editor, living and working in Japan, the Land of the Rising Sun, getting a day off would be a real tough thing to do, especially during the first quarter of the year. I guess you must have felt really shocked when you were at home spending time with your family when the seismic shockwaves hit and your apartment swayed. So much for your time with your family. It must have been really frustrating to shuffle between the dining table, sofa and computer over the weekend and sending tons of reassuring e-mails to friend and family members, especially on your supposed day off, I guess what matters most is that you and your family are safe and away from nature's harm. It must have been a real eye-opener for both you and your family, you must have known that Tokyo is situated on Japan's main Honshu island which is turn sits at the intersection of three continental plates, the Eurasian, Pacific and Philippine Sea plates, which are slowly grinding against each other, building up enormous seismic pressure that every so often is realised with ferocious force, but the fact that in Japan minor earthquakes or tremors are common, must have lowered your guards. I hope you are safe with your wife's side of the family in the west side of Japan. I believe that you too believe that the people that have been hit by the earthquake should and must stay strong! I will be praying and donating and doing all I can from this side in Singapore, you made the right decision to move with your parents-in-law. I wished your family the best of luck in the coming period, hope that none of your close friends or relatives were hit by the earthquake. Be Strong!
Regards,
Wei Jin
