A letter to my Elder Brother

 A while back I wrote the following letter:

Hey Bro,

Is it okay to call you "Bro"?  I know the scriptures say you are my friend and I consider You my best friend.  You always know my thoughts, my secret actions and desires.  And, you know what, I'm glad that you do.  It kind of keeps me in check.  Naturally, I like to do things that probably aren't the best things I could be doing with my time.  But, you still will be there unconditionally for me.  I hope you know I am sorry for the heartache and tears I cause you.  I think it's because at times I feel I've done so many good things that I have a sense of entitlement of thinking I can do something that self-gratifies.  I wish I could have the willpower to dedicate my whole heart, mind and soul to you.  Why is it so difficult at times to have desires that are not appropriate and have the effect of hurting my best friend?  Take away my worldly desires, please.  But, this is so hard to do living in a world that requires me to be somewhat of the world.  At times, I wish I didn't have to work to provide an income for my family and that we could just have the luxuries of life and enjoy more family time and dedicate myself to the family and others around me.  It seems easy to live the gospel in a church setting but difficult when I'm on my own.  It should not be this way.  It should just be a natural thing for me, to be able to give my whole self to you.  Why do I have weaknesses and shortcomings?  You didn't. I mean, how can you go throughout your whole life, let alone one day, without having even the least inclination to do something inappropriate?  Again, my dear friend, I am sorry for all my mistakes.  I just want to make you proud of me.  As you are proud of me, I am proud of myself.  I will try, not because I want or feel a need to to be blessed.  But, because I want you to be proud to call me your brother.

Sincerely,
The Pig
