Dear friend Amal,

                  It's been long since I heard from you. Hope you are hale and hearty, by the grace of God. I'm fine here. I am now going to share a strange experience in this letter with you.  

                  Yesterday we were playing football. But a few moments later our game start, all of a sudden rain set in. Feeling upset some of us left the match and took shelter under a tree. But some including me kept on kicking the football. In a moment we were fully drenched and the field became water-logged. Here and there the quaking sound of frogs could be heard. It was difficult to move the ball, still we went on playing. Seeing our enjoyment others joined us. We slipped in the field many times and as the rain became heavier everything looked misty. After enjoying ourselves fully in the rains for sometime, we, in muddy clothes, returned our home.

                    Have you experienced such? Tell me your experience. Take my love.

                                              yours ever,

                                            ..................
