Message Hi Laura,

It was so nice to find such a literate note from you. Most of the people on Tribe don't speak English very well. Unfortunately my family is not doing well. My wife and son recently died. She took care of her family's import/export business, so now I am the only one left to run this huge company. I am very lonely and have to work long hours.

I am most definitely a God fearing man. God speaks to me every day and he makes me very afraid.

What kind of creme do you make? I like cooking too!

Kindest Regards,

Dr. Paul

Her follow-on:

thanks dr paul for your mail.well,thanks for your compliment also.am also sorry for the death of your family(wife and son),but dr paul,i have to confess to you,am not happy and i really think everything is going to fall on me and that everybody hates me.the only reason i still trust and i would always do is because he saved me from the accident that killed my parents.anyways,i would be hoping to hear from u asap.
