A High School Student Writes

A Letter of Joy

Dear Friend,

Thanks so much for caring enough to help me in Christian Science last week. I was very depressed, and was finding it difficult to lift myself out of that state. I didn't really know why I was unhappy. I only knew I was.

It seemed to take a while for me to seek a healing, though, because I actually thought I enjoyed being sad and sorry for myself. Once I woke up to the situation, I began following your suggestion to strive for a better understanding of real happiness and of my relationship to God. I thought you might be interested in reading some of the things I learned in my study.
