DEAREST ANN

Dearest Ann,

    I hope this letter finds you in the best of spirits and filled with excitement for all the adventures that lie ahead. It's amazing to think about the journey we've shared, from being mere classmates during our undergrad days to blossoming into one of my good friends during our postgraduate studies at Stella Maris. Life has taken us on quite a ride, hasn't it?

    First and foremost, let me extend my heartfelt congratulations on earning your law degree. Your dedication and hard work have truly paid off, and I couldn't be prouder of all that you've accomplished. You must be exhausted from the long nights of studying to the intense debates in the lecture halls. I suppose you've emerged as a remarkable individual with a deep understanding of the law, and I have no doubt that you'll make a significant impact in your chosen field.

    Speaking of life-changing decisions, I wanted to touch upon something that has been on my mind for a while. I've noticed that you've been steadfast in your decision not to get married (atleast for now) or till you find out your better half, and I want you to know that I fully support your choice. It's essential to follow your heart and make decisions that align with your values and aspirations. Marriage is a beautiful institution, but it's not the only path to happiness and fulfillment.

    Our journey from acquaintances to friends has shown me the incredible person you are. Your intelligence, resilience, and the strength of character that you've displayed during our time together have been truly inspiring. It's evident that you're someone who values personal growth and independence, and that's something to be celebrated.

    I believe that everyone's path in life is unique, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach to happiness. Your decision to focus on your career and personal growth is a valid and admirable one. Remember that I'll always be here to support you, no matter what choices you make along the way. Our friendship has been a source of strength and joy for me, and I cherish the bond we've built over the years.

    As you step into this new chapter of your life as a legal professional, I have no doubt that you'll shine brightly and achieve great success. Keep challenging the status quo, breaking down barriers, and making your mark on the world.

    Once again, congratulations on your achievement, my dear friend. I look forward to seeing where life takes you next, and I can't wait to continue sharing in your journey.

With love and friendship,

Meritta
