- One day there was a little young french boy, wondering about life,
- God, society and everything (yes, me).
-
- On the road of life, I met a guy in my town (Grenoble, France). After
- a few conversations, I realized he was quite different than other
- people. Yes, indeed, he was a BAHA'I.
-
- I think I've never feel the same as this day: I begin to see that this
- faith has principles ( such as unity of the world, unity of science
- and religion,...) which I had tried to find everywhere around me, But
- THIS TIME, it was TRUE.
-
- Beleive me, there's nothing like this elsewhere. But it was so
- outstanding to me to find such a faith that even today, I have not yet
- realized what happenned. Two years that I know this religion, and
- now, each day I'm improving. But I'm still too frightened, I think
- I'm not yet ready to enter this faith. One day, soon or never, I will
- feel better and I'll ask to be one of those great men and women, one
- day...yes...but not yet. All I can do is to advise people around me
- that we can't wait anymore for salvation:
-
- IT'S HERE!
-
- One day I will be ready and join the band, for the moment, I just try
- to improve myself, help people, spreading the ideas of this religion.
-
- For you baha'is: I would like to thank you, go ahead and... WAIT FOR
- ME!
-
- THANKS

- There...but for the grace of god
