Respected Uncle.

 I was most delighted and felt absolutely elated that you had not only remembered my birthday but also sent me an excellent book as my birthday present.

 I am writing this letter to you after going through the book on the art of living. After reading the book, I have realised that it is really a waste of this precious life, which God has given us if we merely exist in this world. The book expounds the fact that living life fully and wholly is the true art of living. Citing instances from lives of great men and women like Gandhiji, Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi, this book makes the point it wishes to convey, clearer and more understandable. From now on, I promise to make a personal endeavour to follow the way of life this book teaches.

I thank you once again for your valuable gift and I assure you of reading the book again—this time to understand the art of living in a more broader perspective.

 Yours sincerely

 Nalini
