Kosova: “We lost almost everything we had”

July 8, 2008

Hello! Greeting! I am pleased to write you this letter. I would like to thank you very much for your support and making it possible for me to join this wonderful program.

We had good life conditions before the war but we weren’t safe in that time. My family and I have passed through hard moments during the war. We were forced to leave our home in that time. We have stayed in the mountains for a few days and there we had terrible life conditions. Unfortunately a lot of people were killed during the war. Our house was burned too so we lost almost everything we had. Thank God the NATO troops liberated our country and we live in peace today.

America and other foreign states have helped and supported us get our independence too. So now Kosova is the newest state of the world…You and your family are always in my thoughts and prayers. I am looking forward to receiving a letter from you and to get to know more about you.

Respectfully, your sister, Tahirja
