Letter [Recommending morality and stressing the importance of young age]

Addressee:?

In His Most Exalted Name

Rajab 18,1398 AH

After extending my best wishes and greetings to you, I wish to state that I have received your esteemed letter indicating your well-being and offering sympathy to me. It is hoped that God the Almighty will help us traverse this perilous path with high morale and self-confidence. Now towards the end of my life, with my meager means and paltry provisions, my mind is riveted on the Lord and hope that He will give us insignificant people something from His universal bounty. Thank God that you are blessed with youth and are able to traverse this path straightforwardly. Do not wait for old age as in this last period of life; there is nothing that one can do. May God place you among His beloved ones and those who struggle on the way of truth. May He also make up for the lack of means through His universal bounty. May peace be upon you.
