Dear Dr. Jane Goodall
It’s my ultimate honour to see you in person on this very day. You have been my inspirational idol since I was a teen. Thanks to my teacher, who had introduced you to me, which then ignited my curiosity and interest to know more about you, Dr. Jane. I embarked on the journey of studying the past researches you have done, the projects and events that you have got involved as well as the revolutionary pioneering effect you have on changing the world for a better place.
I was deeply moved by the borderless courage and strong determination you had back 60 years ago, Dr. Jane! As a 23-year-old young lady, you are incredibly fearless and brave to travel to Gombe, plunging into the intriguing yet challenging and full of unknowns’ research of chimpanzees. The time, the patience, the love and devotion you contributed to the chimps family, caring for the young, sending away the deceased, observing details and secrets that were kept unveiled for centuries in the chimps family. I can observe from the interaction you have with the chimps, it is radiating with lots of LOVE. The moment where the released-to-wild chimp came back to hug you had not only touched my heart, it has induced my aspiration to do something regarding the nonhuman animals, rethink the boundary we have set between us and the animals.
Dr. Jane, thank you for not giving up on hope even though how bleak and challenging the situation is. This virtue has been a reminder to me of being mentally and spiritually strong in the pursuits of my goals and realizing my dreams. You are one of the reasons I eventually chose veterinary medicine to begin with, gradually step by step getting closer to achieving my goal. I hope I can be like you (and maybe surpass you :D) someday!
Dr. Jane, I am really interested in getting involved in the Roots and Shoots and other programs that you and the Jane Goodall institute has internationally organized. Trying our best to restore humanity J Honestly, I can’t put my excitement and thrill in words for now I can highlight the top wish on my bucket list ----- To meet Dr. Jane Goodall in person! I really hope that we can keep in touch, for I vowed to follow your footsteps, being inspired and keep on inspiring people!
Once again, thank you and I love you Dr. Jane!
