YUNITA'S SPEECH

Today we celebrate enthusiasm. The enthusiasm that always inspires

our friend, Fida. When I first got to know Fida, she had just

published her first novel entitled Enthusiasm.

As a person who worked at a publishing house, I appreciated her

writing and immediately fell in love with her story, especially to the

main character.

Fida and I have never met before. We have just communicated mostly

via e-mail or Facebook messenger, and sometimes on the phone or

Skype. As I got to know Fida more, I feel Fida’s enthusiasm for her life

is very strong. Fida is always pro-active and productive. She is always

enthusiastic about her life and she believes that God has provided

everything she needs to fulfill God’s will for her life. She is

always willing to learn new things and very open to work together

with other people. No wonder she has a large number of friends.

Let’s celebrate her new book. Let’s celebrate her enthusiasm and may

her enthusiasm be contagious to all of us.

Congratulations Fida Abbott and God bless you! (*)

For the first time they met in person after 8 years communicating via virtual world and phone.
