WRITING A COVER LETTER

To All, The past few days have been very disheartening for me and my family. As you know I have been a subject of a viral video that showed my helplessness during a trying moment. As it stands right now, I have several hate pages in   Facebook and Twitter with hurtful and derogatory messages attacking my person. The reputation that I built the past years has been besmirched. A bad day has now turned into wounded feelings and sleepless nights for me and my family. I have been silent the past few days as I want this to go away soon but not before saying sorry and thank you to people who matter. I would like to apologize for my behavior   that was seen on nationwide television and now on the internet. It was unfortunate that I was caught on camera immediately after an overwhelmingly stressful mishap. I would like to again sincerely thank those who braved the flood to help a distraught stranger like me. Their selfless act reminded me of how dependable Filipinos are in times of cri...

To Jasmine Stewart # 445, Walton Street Wakefield Date: 22 nd  Feb 2012 Dear Jasmine I don’t know that I deserve to be forgiven or not, but surely I owe an apology to you. I am really sorry for what I did and how I spoke to you in front of your friends. I behaved very inappropriately and immaturely. I know that I spoke to you very rudely in spite of knowing what happened was not your fault. I don’t know what happened to me and why I was so angry that I did not realize that it was not a good place to express my anger. When I realized my mistake I came back to apologize in front of all your friends but you were not there. Jasmine, you know I am not like this and it happened so suddenly that I did not understand what I was doing. I hope you’ll forgive me and give me a chance to improve my mistake. Yours Allan Rogers
