Hi

To be honest I having going through a hard time right now. I was dismissed from the casino with no cause. After doing all the research to put up the casino here in Cali and get it going for them, my bosses decided they did not need me anymore. I have filed a complaint with the courts and eventually they will have to pay me for dismissing me just like that. In the long run I rather know now what kind of people I was working for. Its hard being in this country, as much as I try to get adjusted to this country and its people, I miss my family, the only one I knew before I was picked up and delivered to hell. Sometimes I feel I have not made it home yet. I should not be complaining right? but I just pray every night that whatever my mission is here I hope the door opens soon.

I have met alot of people who are interested in going to the states, and thats where Becky comes in. Everything is legal and I always told her I would find her a Colombian husband. Please tell her that I do think of her often and once I am more oriented in Cali I will write her. Please tell her not to loose faith thats all we have in there and that her day is coming soon. Tell her do not let the little light of faith that keeps us going go out, because thats when the government has won the battle, and Becky is fighter.

Take care and God bless.

Siempre,
Tu amiga Maria Eugenia
