Dear friend


I hope you and your family all are in good condition. And the news to be happy is that I got selected as the Pilot of AIR INDIA.


Here the day comes when I was so glad to complete my dream. I feel outcome will be sweet when your input is of mixed taste. Because in a life nothing will be easier and the benefits obtained without any hard work is of no use.


And the patience is the one of the important term the individual should learn after hard work. I got selected among 100 applicants of applied for it and this is the great opportunity for me and I will not stop here and will gain something more than this in my future life.


No one should satisfy with their hard work this will give a motivation to do more better Give my regards to all elders and love to the children.


Yours lovingly,


Vaibhav
