Greetings,Mr.Branson. I'm
Christo from Lyaskovets, Bulgaria. I'm a writer, but not from those writers, who
are mediocre and we have them on every corner as pubs, but from others –the vanishing type.
I
write you this letter for two reasons:
1.
To thank you that we have you there on this earth, that you’ve gained so many
things, with which you gave yourself a personal freedom, and because of your
respect for every living part of this world.

2.
The second reason is that for me you are a kind informal mentor, but you even
do not know that, and because few years ago I’ve red that when you didn’t like
the comfort in the airbus, you’ve made your own air company.
Every
time I find something, written from you, I read it in the same minute, because
I receive a pure wisdom from your words. I am in a strange situation. I am 33,
I’ve already wrote 20 books and still keep writing. Some of my books are
translated in English and Italian. The reason, for which I write you is, that
on the presentation of my book “Christo from Lyaskovets and friends” one very
nice person – Mr.Mike Ram, after hearing all that I’ve gone trough to reach
this moment, said that I have to write something about it all, and the headline
have to be just like the name of your book – “Screw it, Let’s do it!” I always
say that I learn from you how to keep on going and not to give away, and in
fact I have a dream – to have a chance to drink a coffee with you, to have a
chance to talk with you about the sharks in the ocean, about the sand in
Sahara, about the palms in Hawaii and about you comfortable jets…. In fact I
want to know that it all is possible like the beginning and the end of every
new day. If some day you have a chance to come to Lyaskovets, I will meet you
heartily and will give you like a present a nice walk trough our forest, to
have a nice memory from your being there.
“Screw it, Let’s do it!” |
Some
days ago I’ve red a story about you and a woman, who wanted to wear your shoes.
I do not want that, I want just to drink a coffee with you and to talk with
you. I do not know English at all, but I know the language of the Heart, for
which I’ve red in “The Alchemist” of Paulo Coelho.
I
do not know what you will do with my letter, but I thank you that I have you in
my life. Now with a help of a friend, who translated this letter, I have a
chance to send it to you.
I
wanna thank God for the chance to present in you brilliant life with this
letter ever for a moment.
With
all my respect: Christo
