continued .....sort of

so i just had dinner with this awesome guy ! k anyways back to my life stort so i knew i had to make some changes and i did ! i started just keeping myself busy with church activites . one sunday i was sitting in church next to this older man i mean he has to be in his eightys when the sunday school teacher asked him to read something he struggled majorly ...i couldnt help but feel like i should talk to him after church well i attempted to but he didnt want anything to do with me .......after church another person in our ward went and handed me a paper with a bunch of peoples names on it and on there was the old mans Hank!!! so i kinda started stalking him ...i just called him one day and was like hi hank its ruby the new girl in ur ward and he was like how can i help u i asked if i could maybe stop by someday soon just to visit and he said he was kinda busy and didnt know when he would really have time i thought to myself how much activites could a eighty year old man really have going on ??? so i called again and again until he finally ok'ed me coming over so i went and he stayed in this bck room of his house well we talked he told me all about his wife and his family and how he had fallen away for so many years from the church and had recently only gotten back into it and was excited to be sealed to his wife for time and all eternity .....in our discussion i discovered he had never learned to read . i though how sad to never have been able to read ur scriptures or books . so i made it my mission to come and read with him and teach him to read . ...........................................
