Dear [Name],
Watching you start your life, I would like to promise you that bad things never happen. Love and grief, joy and strife, will never cross your vision simultaneously. Unfortunately, I cannot, because life is difficult. You may not know pain or limitations yet. This is your right, for youth carries this most splendid gift; age is the culprit that destroys its very essence as experiences mount.
As we mature, a terrible thing called fear can grab hold of our dreams. Whether it's fear of failure, the unknown, or the risk or ramifications of a decision, it limits potential. You must be stronger than your strongest fear but also understand that you are destructible.
Build your spirituality, loving the person within. In my own life, I have learned that this is the source of true strength. [first name], I am so very proud of you, and I wish I could make your dreams instant realities by waving a magic wand over your head. But by doing so, I would rob you of accomplishment's satisfaction and that is not my right. No matter what or when, I am here for you to rely on. Congratulations on your accomplishment. I feel fortunate to be part of your life.
Sincerely,
