"Dear Friend,

 As you got up this morning, I watched you and hoped you would talk to
 me -
 even if it was just a few words, asking my opinion or thanking me for
 something good that happened in your life yesterday.

 But I noticed you were too busy trying to find the right outfit to put
 on
 and wear to work. I waited again. When you ran around the house
 getting
 ready, I knew there would be a few minutes for you to stop and say
 hello,
 but you were too busy.

 At one point you had to wait fifteen with nothing to do except sit in
 a
 chair. Then I saw you spring to your feet. I thought you wanted to
 talk to
 me but you ran to the phone and called a friend to get the latest
 gossip. I
 watched as you went to work and I waited patiently all day long. With
 all
 your activities, I guess you were too busy to say anything to me. I
 noticed
 that before your lunch you looked around, maybe you felt embarrassed
 to
 talk to me, that is why didn't 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 didn't. That's okay.

 There is still more time left, and I have hoped that you will talk to
 me
 even yet. 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 don't know if I
 like
 TV or not, just about anything goes there and you spend a lot of time
 each
 day 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. As you did your paperwork I waited again you did
 what
 you had to do. At bedtime I guess you felt too tired. After you said
 goodnight to your family you plopped into bed and fell asleep in no
 time.
 That's okay because you may not realize that I am always there for
 you.

 I've got patience more than you will ever know. I even want to teach
 you
 how to be patient with others as well. Because I love you so much, a
 long
 time ago I left a wonderful placed called Heaven and came to Earth. I
 gave
 it up so that I could be ridiculed and made fun of. And I even died so
 you
 wouldn't have to take my place. I love you so much that I wait
 everyday for
 a nod, prayers or thought or a thankful part of your heart. It is hard
 to
 have a one-sided conversation. Well you are getting up again and once
 again
 I will wait with nothing but love for you, hoping that today you will
 give
 me some time.

 P.S. Do you have enough time to send this to another person?"
