Hi Mr. Prokhorov,
Happy Easter! May every dark spot in my life will be filed with light today.
Although in your interview with Mr. Pozner you said that you're an atheist, but in your interview with "60 minutes" you said "miracle happens" about your luck in business.
God is about miracle, life is a miracle, we don't know why and how we've got here. I'm not a religious person and with you we grew up in the same country with same or similar upbringing and we're almost the same age, but I had a life full of challenges.
I came to USA alone with nothing and without any survival skills. Not a street smart or a clever type. Read too many books before and lived in much better world in my mind. Soon understood that world is not a "fairy land" and we need God for answers. Every time I was down and disappointed, tired and sad, He was there. I never felt alone or in danger. He showed me signs in little things. Little light here and there to take on another day, not to compromise my values and stay strong. He was on my side so many times. Lord is about Faith, Hope and Love. Where would I be without those? You know already that you don't need to be religious person to believe that miracle happens.
One more thing on a lighter note; if it's true that you still feel like a teenager, you should get yourself a big fluffy Easter bunny to cheer you up. Or tell me your address I'll send it to you. There are very cute ones in here called "pillow pals." You can use them as pillows while taking naps during your lengthy work days. You need bunny! Walt Disney had Mickey Mouse when he was a grown up man, married with 4 children. So, don't be shy, help yourself. Last year Easter day we were in Disney's Magic Kingdom in FL. Have you been there?
We have big Easter parade on 5ht Avenue today, lots of people young and old will be dressed in costumes with baskets full of eggs, chocolates, candies, flowers and all sorts of goodies. Music, street fair and fiesta. How can you miss this out?
I'm going to go. Also I'll put a candle that you would make more money, sponsor my projects and buy yourself a bunny costume. Or bear, if you want. They're good friends, they go together. I have both - toys, not costumes. I'm still shy to wear a costume. I don't feel like a teenager like you, I feel like in my mid 20's.
That's it. I tried to cheer you up as much as I could. Hope it works.
Best regards.
