[Dear Mr. Khomeini:
I do not want to inconvenience you with my request; however, until yesterday, I was in a predicament which left me groping for a solution (and which I want to solve with your help). As you are a kind person, I hope that you will extend your assistance. Soon my fiancee will be receiving a birthday gift- a gift that will be presented from the bottom of my heart. She collects great men's handwritings with enthusiasm. Her birthday is on February 4 and she will be so delighted to receive greetings from you. I would like to ask you to do me a favor. Would you kindly write a few nice words on the postcard that I have enclosed with this letter, and send it to her? If, in principle, you are not in the habit of sending your handwriting to anyone, please let us know. Thanks and best wishes.
Yours sincerely,
Pridsee Coopissa

Try to be a useful individual to your community. Try not to be influenced by satanic powers. Try to be a committed human being. May you always be healthy, God willing.
