Dear son,
I am writing this letter to you after you left for your higher studies. If you remain sincere towards your studies, you will get what you desire. The three years of sincerity and devotion may mould your career for good. You are entering into a new phase of life where you will have to take your own decisions.
No one is going to tell you to study or play or watch TV. You have to manage all your time by yourself.
I know that you will not disappoint me as far as your studies are concerned. But I want you to be careful as you are young and should know little of the temptations and allurements that may come your way. Indulging in these distractive activities may not only deviate you from your path but will also destroy the hopes of
your parents.Choose friends who are sincere, honest and encouraging. Educationis very important in the formation of character.Morals are of greater importance in life than material gains. Being a wise boy, you know that the heights reached and kept, by great men, were not attained by sudden flight but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upwards in the night.
Keep writing me regularly and unreservedly. Always look upon me as yourbest friend, hiding nothing, not even your mistakes or faults.
Your mother always conveys you her fondest love.
Your affectionately
Your Name
