Title: Achieve Your Dream
by Ahmed from Surrey | in writing, fiction
I am here today, writing to you unbeaten and successful business men and women that the light of opportunity has opened to you but sadly not on to me. This is why, why I am writing to you today to answer my call of sorrow and hardships and to tell you about a boy whose life isn't the way he dreamt of. And to help guide him in prosperity for he has a dream, a dream that cannot be pursued without any guidance or help. He wishes to succeed in the pursuit of happiness.
My name is Fernandez I'm 15 years old, I live a regular life a hard knock life. Just like any other but what does that mean to you? Does it mean top notch private schools, 5 bedroom houses or a Mercedes as a car? No not for me and my family. Our life is depressing and a rise of hardship, my parents strive and work until they drop on their knees to pay bills and are hardly ever around to even say hello or goodbye to me. I have to look after my sick grandmother after school so there is no time for fun and games, most importantly homework. My friends which aren't really my friends are the only fun I have, we just love to play football as our sport but apart from that, I know truly that in their hearts that they are not my true friends just using me as a pass time. But school is great, I love it, I'm always hitting on hard knock grades and my teachers recognise that, and feel sorry for the condition I live in though they cannot do much to help. But the worst part that I stressed is that my parents can't afford much so I have to buy trainers like golf and shoes that rip off easily. And what bugs me the most is when other kids bring in new nikey trainers and Armani watches all I can afford are the ones that the guy with the stall on the street corner sells for a few quid.
On weekends I go out with my neighbours to play football but we kind of stopped that because one of the neighbours started to complain and told the authorities. The youth centre closed down because there were too many fights and nobody really liked each other so they did what they had to do. But out of pure luck they changed it into a public swimming pool, I only can go there if I can borrow a fiver off my mum or dad to go there but otherwise, the depression is so out of its limits that it is indescribable and that's why you might see me with a down sorry look on my face.
Does everyone have a future in anything even as a dustbin cleaner? Well I hope I do because I would really and sincerely love to become a criminal lawyer the reason' it's my type of thing I guess really. But even if I do pass that stage I won't stop until I become the best to my ability. To help people and communities like mine to ride on board the train of success, to built and raise money for a greater good of humanity, as god does say help others around you as you will be rewarded in turn. If I do achieve this I wish to raise a new family an educated successful family of the next generation of children to come and not to live the sad and deprived life I've lived
As for my future, I don't think there will be any if you don't accept this letter. I've wished and dreamt a simple dream that when I reach university and I hope I do. That you business men and women could pay for all my university expenses for example apartments and tuition fees.
And as an outcome of this I will study day in day out ignoring the bad people around me like I have back home, and to understand and learn everything there is for me to become a lawyer. And I sincerely would be grateful and look up in the future to people like you.
And to prove people wrong, the people that thought bad of me as a failure who will never succeed in life but I will prove them wrong that I have risen in the ranks of society and be known amongst the respected and knowledgeable people and there they will be begging for my friendship but I will not turn one eye back.
So I am writing to you to stop and think for a moment and accept this letter of sorrow and dreams and help me to become a great success in life as well as in society. I cannot profoundly stress the point of how grateful I would be to accept my ambitions.
