At one point you had to wait for fifteen minutes with nothing to do but sit in a chair.  Then I saw you spring to your feet.   I thought that you wanted to talk to me but you ran to the phone and called a friend to get the latest gossip instead. I watched patiently all day long. With all your activities, I guess you were too busy to say anything to me.</B></div> <div> <B>     I noticed before lunch that you looked around, maybe you felt embarrassed to talk to me is why you did not bow your head. you glanced three or four tables over and you noticed some of your friends talking to me briefly before they ate, but you didnt.      Thats ok. there is still more time left and I hope that you will  talk to me yet.</B></div> <div> <B>     You went home and it seems as if you had lots of things to do.   After a few of them were done, you turned on the TV.   I dont know if you like TV or not; just about anything goes there and you spend a lot of time in front of it, not thinking about anything. just enjoying the show.  I waited patiently again as you watched TV and ate your meal, but again you didn't talk to me.</B></div> <div> <B>     Bedtime, I guess you felt too tired.  After you said goodnight to your family you plopped into bed and fell asleep in no time.       Thats ok because you may not realize that I am always there for you.        I have patience, more than you will ever know.        I even want to teach you to be patient with others as well.     I love you so much that I will wait everyday for a nod, a prayer, a thought or a thankful part of your heart.</B></div> <div> <B>     It is hard to have a one-sided conversation.    Well, you are waking up once again and once again  I will wait, with nothing but love for you.</B></div> <div> <B>     Hoping that today you will give me some time.   Have another blessed day.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Your Friend,</B></div> <div> <B>     God</B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B> <img src="HTMLobj-355/aniGif.gif" border="0" align="bottom" width="130" height="130">  </B></div> <bR> <div> <B> <embed src="HTMLobj-869/amagrace_1_.mid" autostart="true" loop="true" hidden="true">    <script language="JavaScript">  </script>  </B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B> <img src="HTMLobj-350/aniGif.gif" border="0" align="bottom" width="120" height="120">  </B></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://GO.MAILBITS.COM/TRIVIA.ASP?118475.1 " TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://GO.MAILBITS.COM/TRIVIA.ASP?118475"><U><B><IMG SRC="668ea3c0.gif" border=0 width="234" height="60" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://go.MailBits.com/Tell.asp?118475.1 " TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://go.MailBits.com/Tell.asp?118475.1"><U><B><IMG SRC="660581f0.gif" border=0 width="88" height="31" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="talltexian_s__index.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="TALLTEXIANS WEBSITE INDEX"><U><B><U>TALLTEXIAN'S WEBSITE INDEX</U></B></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="index.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="TALLTEXIANS SOUTHFORTY"><U><B><U>Home Page</U></B></U></A></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id28.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="A Childs Ten Commandments"><U><B><U>Previous Page</U></B></U></A></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="don_t_wake_daddy_.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Please Dont Wake Daddy Up!"><U><B><U>Next Page</U></B></U></A></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://aff.mailbits.com/info/earn.asp?118475 " TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://aff.mailbits.com/info/earn.asp?11"><U><B><U><IMG SRC="655581f0.gif" border=0 width="88" height="31" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></B></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>  <SCRIPT language=JavaScript src="http://counter.mycomputer.com/get_counter.html?u=TALLTEXIAN1&c=16"> </SCRIPT> <NOSCRIPT> <a href="http://counter.mycomputer.com/"><img alt="Counter" src="http://counter.mycomputer.com/c.count?u=TALLTEXIAN1&c=16" border=0></a> </NOSCRIPT>   </B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id29_cf.htm" TITLE="A Letter From A Friend"><U><B><U>Back to Top</U></B></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <B> <img src="HTMLobj-348/aniGif.gif" border="0" align="bottom" width="65" height="128">  </B><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Loki Cola" ><B>Website Designed and <img src="HTMLobj-349/aniGif.gif" border="0" align="bottom" width="65" height="128">  </B></FONT></div> <div> <B>Built by</B></div> <div> <B>The Colonel</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>  <form method="post" action="http://www.listbot.com/cgi-bin/subscriber"> <table border=0><tr><td colspan=2> Join our mailing list!
