'JP': Number Eight

The second letter was completely unexpected, coming just days after the first one. And I realized how much I love getting mail. Now, I wait everyday, hoping that there will be something for me, because maybe, just maybe, there might be. It seems strange, but perhaps, when I get married, I want to send my husband a letter. In the mail. Yes, take the time and money to stamp and send it. At least once a week. There is very little better than seeing your name written on an envelope, knowing it's not a bill or junk mail, knowing that inside, it's a letter from someone who cares.

You mentioned your concern about your girlfriend. And honestly, whether or not you two end up together isn't a concern to me. I was just happy that you were willing to confide in me your concerns.

I think missions are one of the best things to happen to a person. I am so glad that our church is one that very strongly recommends them for young men. They change so much for the better.
