Hello everyone ,

I am not sure how many of you would have read this. But I find this quite
inspiring

Dear (insert name here),

I heard you enjoy a certain programming language named Python. Programming
is a wonderful activity. I am a little jealous that you have access to
computers at your age; when I grew up I didn't even know what a computer
was! I was an electronics hobbyist though, and my big dream was to build my
own electronic calculator from discrete components. I never did do that,
but I did build several digital clocks, and it was amazing to build
something that complex and see it work. I hope you dream big too --
programmers can make computers (and robots!) do amazing things, and this is
a great time to become a programmer. Just imagine how much faster computers
will be in five or ten years, and what you will be able to do with your
skills then!

--Guido van Rossum
