Dearest darling June,
My dearest June; I miss you. Never did I imagine myself in such pain; a pain whose only remedy is you—to be with you. I know I said the same thing as last time, but that’s because I truly mean it. I have tried everything to convince myself that I'll be fine without you, but as I learn to live with this loneliness in my heart, a loneliness I never experience, I ask myself if I'll managed to survive without you because I have realized that without you I'm nobody. It kills me inside to think of the fact that we won't be seeing each other for a few years. No matter how long it may take, I will stay strong because time will pass and we will be together once again to never separate. Ever since I left I can only think about …show more content…
We were in poverty and there was no way to get out it. I knew I needed to do something in order for us to survive and staying there in China wasn't an option. Opium is all over China and our government wasn't doing anything about it. I mean, why don’t they do anything to stop the importation of opium into our country which has been destroying people's lives. You look outside and you see our fellow Chinese men in terrible health conditions. It has done so much damage them that they don’t even notice it. They are so naïve into thinking that just because it's legal that it's safe to use, but that’s not the case . Opium has destroyed our beloved Shango like many other providence. China is infested with opium addicts and you know better than I do because you are surrounded by them. 1 Why does Great Britain keep selling this to our country if they know what it has done to our country. It totally blows my mind to know that in their country-it's illegal. I mean what makes them think we want it? Its ridiculous. They know damage it done, but they don’t care, it's irrelevant to them because all they care is about the …show more content…
You suggest we go to the south, but there were other more serious conflict that were far more dangerous there. The Taiping War was taking place there, and so many civilian were dying. If we would have gone there like you suggested we would been in trouble. If we would haved moved there like you suggested we could been in great trouble, we would basically be moving into a battlefield that gave no clues about when it was going to end. The situation there is horrible, there are people running everywhere trying to save their lives, homes being burned down, and dead bodies in the rivers. It scares even thinking about it. I feel guilty for having to leave you, but the only way for us to get out of the situation was for me to come to America. I feel guilty for having to leave you, but if we wanted to overcome this, I had to come. Seeing those pamphlets in the street saying that there was hope, and hope was located in America. Everyone was talking about the gold rush and people believe that going there would make us rich. They have discovered gold in California and they were saying that I were to go there I would make a lot of
