If I could see you this afternoon and talk to you and kiss you I would give most anything. I have never wanted to see you quite so badly as right now. I wonder if you ever feel the same about me. I'm getting so worried about you, I am almost certain that I will hear from you tomorrow morning and I can hardly wait for it to come. 

You know I think people go through so many different ways of thinking about things. For the last year or two it seems to me I have been very indifferent about church and its a question thats vexed me a great deal. Sometimes I get thinking about different questions and right down in the bottom of my heart it seems to me that I don't believe anything about religion and wonder what its all about and at other times its just the other way. Of course there can be no proof in the matter and therefore everything has to be done on faith. If I could only have a perfect faith about religion I think I would be perfectly happy, but I think this is a doubting age and people seem to be going to church less and less. All the time I was in church this morning I didn't feel one bit religious and was in a very doubting frame of mind untill the sermon. The minister preached about the proofs of Christ having lived and he put it in an extremely beautiful way. And I felt very much clear in my mind about it. I have always thought that the sermon is the principle part of the service and I think you do to, don't you! 

I think it will be a good idea to tell both families about you and me about the time I go
