K…I was sifting through old notes and letters and such and I found that letter Azya gave me this year to try and convert me. I know that I shouldn’t laugh because it’s not nice and all but it was so funny. I mean. Honestly. So I decided I would type it up in here so that I have it online too. Firstly though I should probably say something about her. She is the teacher’s pet oboe player, who thought she was better than me and Christa…She absolutley hated me. I mean it. I was obnoxious, loud, and everything else that I could be to be a bad student. It was fun. I hate Mr. Wheeler and he deserved it. So me and Christa were always talking and such so….Here goes. Dear Katherine, You have been a wonderful friend to me. I wanted you to know how much I love you , and also how much I appreciate you and Christa’s cheerfulness when I feel blue. I have noticed that you seem very quiet lately, and if I’m correct, you seem sad, too. I wanted to cheer you up somehow, to repay you for all you’ve done for me. The Book of Mormon carries wonderful messages of hope, love, and pace. It has touched my very soul more times than I can count. When a young boy named Joseph Smith was shown the plates of gold, he worked to translate them and also to spread their message abroad. I used to wonder what had really happened, then and how all these thigns could happent o a mere boy. Now I wonder no longer. The feelings I have when I read the words of ancient South American prophets cannot be described through the human language. The message of this is beautiful, uplifting, and inspiring. I wonder if I could have the kind of faith that Nephi and Moroni had. I wonde why the Lord chose me to tell you these things. All I know is, I love you, Katherine. I love Jesus christa and my Father in Heaven. I hope my giving you this book to you will not offend you, b ecuse that is not what I wish to do. I hope you’ll read it, for even if you decide it isn’t right for you now, it is a message worth reading. The Book of Mormon has helped me many times in my life. I am able to remember how much Heavenly Father loves every one of us, and I am able to work to become a better person. If you will read the passage I have marked, in Moroni Chapter 10, and do as he promises, I know you will get an answer. Again, Katherine, I love you and thank you for being such a great friend. Love, Azya I dunno about the rest of you but I find that hilarious. Usually I find it horribly obnixious when people try to convert me and/or give me a book of mormon but this was funny. Too too funny. I’ve had to so many people try and convert me and it totally pisses me off! One of my friends was all, but you’d be such a good mormon! It’s like they think that everyone else doesn’t have values. God, you don’t have to be mormon to have values and self pride. It also pisses me off that people automatically assume I’m mormon at school because I dresss “modestly” and don’t swear every other word. * rolls eyes * It just totally pisses me off that people can be so set on what they think. Oh well. Blah. I’m bored. I’m leaving in 25 minutes anyways.
