Emon,

Hello- it's Kurt Angle from TNA. I just wanted to send you a message and say hi. I know a lot about you and I want you to know that my life was very similar to yours. I did not have a lot growing up, but I dreamed big. And I had many goals I wanted to accomplish. It started when I was young, very young. I always wanted to be the best in my class at what I loved to do. I worked very hard and one day I was the best in my class- in wrestling. Then I decided I wanted to be the best in my region. I worked so very hard and I became the best in my region. Then it was states, then nationals, then college nationals, then senior nationals. I kept focus of my goals. I lost a lot but I never gave up until I accomplished it. Then one day I decided I wanted to be the best in the world. I worked harder than anyone, and I always had it in the back of my mind that NOBODY worked as hard as me. Then one day, I found myself in the finals of the Olympics in 1996. I knew that if I used all that hard work to tire my opponent out, I could beat him and become Olympic Champion. I did it! I was so grateful and happy. Because I was only an average kid growing up. Nothing special. But I made myself into something special. Because I never gave up and dreamed "big". You can do it too. Whatever your heart desires, you go after it. Hang on and never let go-and I guarantee you will be a huge success in your life, in whatever you do. Take care and GOD bless... Don't forget to send me a message back. Good luck with your computer!!!! Don't forget to say your prayers.

Best,

Kurt

Emon, wrestling fan
Emon
Emon is a wonderful kid and most of the time he has a giant grin on his face. It has been hard growing up without a father. Government assistance and an incredibly supportive church have helped Emon keep a positive attitude despite the poverty and danger he lives with. Along with basketball and baseball, he is also the biggest wrestling fan around. He would love to become a professional wrestler some day... For more info see Emon's profile on the Inspire a Child! page.
