Write a Letter to Your Friend Narrating Your Recent Act of Bravery

Personal letter writing is the most traditional way of maintaining contact with close people. Before this contemporary telephonic revolution, even a couple of decades back, people used to write letters to each other for general communication.

Nowadays, though the writing of the personal letter has become practically irrelevant for real life, many institutions have still continued to use this to check their students’ English comprehension tests.

Today’s session is going to be based on such a relevant topic that you may find important for your next English comprehension test. Here, you are going to learn to write letters to your friend narrating your recent act of bravery.

Dear Prafull,

It’s been a long time that I have not received letters from you. How are you doing nowadays? I have recently helped the police to catch a notorious thief from our locality. Through this letter, I want to share that experience with you.

For the last few months, a thief was disturbing the normal livelihood in our area. Almost every alternative day, something was being stolen from somebody’s house. Despite informing the police, they could not arrest someone due to the lack of evidence. In such a situation, one evening while returning from my coaching class, I saw a person roaming suspiciously around one of our neighbours’ houses. The entire incident seemed fishy to me and after coming home, I asked my father to inform the police. The police trapped the person that night and caught him red-handed. I even had to go to the police station to identify the person.

Dear Mithila,

I have just finished reading the last letter you wrote to me. There you wanted to know why everybody was praising me till when you last visited my place. Actually, the reason is I saved a boy from drowning in a nearby lake near our house.

We have a big lake near our house. Around a week ago, One day, when I was returning from school in the afternoon, I noticed a little boy shouting from inside the lake to save him. I immediately understood that he doesn’t know how to swim and hence is drowning in the lake. As I knew swimming, I decided to take a risk to save the boy. Putting my school bag on the ground immediately, I jumped into the lake to save the boy. When I reached him, he swallowed a lot of water. Then I grabbed his hair and pulled him out of the lake. 

After pulling him out of the lake, I informed my family and other residents of the locality. Due to this incident, everybody in the locality was praising me. But I still consider it my duty as a human being. 

Your loving friend
Ankita Sarkar

Dear Arijit,

It’s been a long time that I haven’t heard from you. How are you? You know, recently I have helped the fire brigade in a rescue operation in our locality. I am writing this letter to you today to share this experience with you.

A few days back, a multi-storeyed building nearby our house was put on a massive fire. It was basically a residential building and around 50 families used to live in that building. After everybody noticed the fire, the fire brigade was immediately informed and the initial rescue operation was started by the locals, along with the fire brigade later, to save the people trapped inside the building. I also took part in that rescue operation and helped to rescue around 15 people. Along with rescuing the people, I also helped to extinguish the fire with sand and water. I also had a little injury on my left-hand fingers. 

I am so proud to be a part of such a brave operation. My family members have also appreciated me for this. What do you think of this incident? Let me know in your next letter. 

Your best friend,
Altaf Hossein

Dear Ankit,

In your last letter, you have asked me about the need for bravery in human life. Through this letter today, I want to discuss the need I feel for bravery in a person’s life.

Look, our life is a long journey. We expect this journey to be a smoother one, but it often comes out to be the exact opposite. So we all have to deal with many tough situations in our life. And difficulty may come in many forms. That’s why we should always stay prepared to deal with them. But how can we prepare ourselves for such difficult situations? The initial answer is bravery. Without basic bravery, we will often feel defeated in our life very easily. 

Recently, while travelling with my family to a hill station, I lost myself among a crowd. Initially, I got pretty afraid and started panicking. But then I calmed myself down and went to a police officer I saw nearby. I told him about the whole incident along with my parents’ names. He helped me to find my parents.

Obviously, excessive bravery can be dangerous. But such basic bravery is highly needed to sustain in our life. 

Best wishes and regards,
Rehan
