One of the Bollywood song says……<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">Chudiyan banti hai dukano mein<br /> Jodiyan upar aasamano mein </span></b><br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red;">(<span style="color: red;">चूड़ियाँ बनती हैं दुकानों में <br />जोड़ियाँ ऊपर आसमानों में</span> ) </span></b><br />
<br />
But, there are some places where matchmaking is done. In the Mithilanchal region of Bihar, the 'Saurath Sabha', that is, the fair of brides, has grown from ancient times. This tradition continues even today. The debate over its importance in the modern era has definitely increased. <br />
<br />
<div>
Saurath Sabha is located on 22 bighas of land in Saurath, Madhubani district. It is also known as 'Sabhagachhi'. Saurath is a name similar to Saurashtra in Gujarat. Like Saurashtra in Gujarat, there is a Somnath temple here, but not so big. The similarity in Saurath and Saurashtra is the subject of research.</div>
<div>
<br />
In the Mithilanchal region, this fair of Mathil Brahmin grooms takes place for seven to eleven days every year in the month of ashadh , in which the fathers of the daughters pick up the worthy groom and take them with them. <br />
<br />
In this meeting, the qualified groom comes with his father and other relatives. The people of the girl side interact with the elders and their families and gather all the information about each other's family and decide the relationship when the groom likes it.</div>
<div>
<br />
There had been good crowd in the Saurath Assembly till about two decades ago, but now its charm seems to be decaying. Highly qualified grooms do not like to sit in this Saurath Sabha. Today's youth section seems not ready to follow this tradition.<br />
<br />
The role of traditional registrars(Panjikars) in Saurath Sabha is important. The relationship that is settled here gives recognition to the registrar. The role of the registrars(Panjikars) is the same that the Magistrate in the Court Marriage</div>
<div>
<br />
The registrar keeps the genealogy of the groom and the bride side. They match up to the seven generations of the records of marriage of both sides. On seeing the record of both sides, it is confirmed that no marriage has been done in the past seven generations between the two families, then the registrar says, "Get the right!" That is, there is no blood connection before, so there is no harm in establishing a relationship.<br />
<br />
Maithil Brahmins started this practice in about 1310 AD about 700 years ago, so that marriage relations can be settled between good clans. About 1.5 lakh people visited in Saurath Sabha in 1971. In 1991, nearly fifty thousand people had come, but now the number of visitors has decreased significantly.</div>
<div>
<br />
There are some scientific reasons behind this kind of fair. Doctors also advise not to marry in the same blood group. Perhaps this is the reason why Maithil Brahmins do not marry in the same clan and origin. They believe that the best of the offspring is to marry children in different clans. <br />
<br />
Finding a suitable groom for daughter was a difficult task earlier, so all the Brahmins of Mithilanchal came to Saurath Sabha to find a groom.</div>
<div>
<br />
Now, the people are also living in different states and they get suitable grooms there too. If the boys and girls are well educated, they make a decision by own, they do not have to come Saurath Sabha. Yet, there are people who come here to verify the record and registering the marriage.<br />
<br />
In Mithilanchal, since the ancient times, an annual meeting of the bride-groom's parents and relatives has been put in place during the auspicious time for proper settlement of marital relations. The aim of the Saurath Sabha was to stop marriage of celibacy, to eradicate dowry and provide confirmation of marriage keeping various aspects of both the sides of the bride and groom.</div>
<div>
<br />
The positive outcome of this tradition is that the marriage institution in Mithila has always been in a strong position and the intensity of social relations remains intact. Nowadays, considering the rising cases of divorce, its significance can be understood.<br />
<br />
It is true that people are becoming disillusioned with this meeting now. Its main reason may be changing social lives, values, latest education and loosing importance of their customs and traditions.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">It is widely believed that Dogs can sense death beforehand.
The famous novelist Thomas Hardy had a pet dog Wessex.The dog was very fond of
Hardy’s friend William Watkins. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">One evening when Watkins appeared Wessex, instead
of greeting him with his usual enthusiasm greeted him with whines. The dog
followed the man to Hardy’s study where Wessex kept up a continuous whining.
Several times, </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Wessex put his paw on Watkin’s hand only to withdraw it.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Both the man were puzzled. They examined him fully to find
any possible injury.The dog was physically fine.The next morning Hardy got the
news of Watkin’s death.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Dogs’ premonitions have saved many a life. Redsey, a bitch loved
to go fishing on a boat with her master Mr. Montgomery. One morning in 1938 her
master prepared a boat for a fishing trip.When called Redsey refused to get in.
Ignoring all his persuations and even his commands she stood on the deck and
barked continuously. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Mr. Montgomery gave up the trip though the sky was clear. Soon
he thanked Redesy. Within a hour a great hurricane stuck the area and hundreds
of people lost their lives.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">It is a common belief that telepathy is easy between two
beings who have deep emotional tie. The author of ‘<b><span style="color: red;">Your
pet’s Secret Language</span></b>’ John Robbins reports a case of a women who
while at work suddenly thought of her dog.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Simultaneously she experienced an
intense fear.She left whatever she was doing and rushed home. She found her dog
entangled in a rope and slowly choking to death.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">It has been seen that very often Pigs run away and hide just
a day before they are to be caught for slaughtering. They return only after the
pig catchers have given up the search.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Lobsang
Rampa was the pen name of an author Cyril Henery Hoskin who wrote as many as 18
books on paranormal and occult themes. He claimed that his body hosted the
spirit of a Tibetan lama going by the name of <b><span style="color: red;">Tuesday</span></b> <span style="color: red;"><b>Lobsang
Rampa</b></span>,who is purported to have authored the books.The name relates to a

one of his book <b><span style="color: red;">“Living with the Lama”</span></b> to his pet Siamese Cat,Mrs. Fifi
Greywhiskers. He says, ’Cleopatra and Tedalinka,the most intelleligent Siamese

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Once one of
his cat was banished to their local bazaar. The cat used to visit their neighbours
one by one till she could steal atleast one fish,coocked or uncoocked. She
would never come home with the loot. Punishing animals several hours after the
event was of no use.So she always went scot-free.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Fed up with
complaints, he decided to leave her in a local fish market which was mile
away.The cat was placed in a cloth bag and the bag’s mouth was tied.A
neighbourhood boy with a cycle was summoned and was asked to deport the mewing
cat,which he did.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Four nights
later, the cat was back. There were more surprises. The cat no longer stole fish
or other items to eat. When other cats snatched away her food she just looked
on in a benign manner.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Our own home
can be a laboratory to study animals, especially domestic. We can observe them
easily. Only if we humans learnt to treat animals as our equal we could learn
much, not only about them but about ourselves too.</span></div>

Like human being all animals have psychic powers. In some it
is developed and in some it is dormant. Domestic animals being closest to us
are easier to observe. Famous controversial writer Lobsang Rampa has
illustrated some examples.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Frau Moekel was a German housewife.One evening she was
helping her child with mathematics. The child could not add 122 and 2.To put
her to shame Frau Moekel asked Rolf, their dog how much is two plus two. When
Rolf tapped his paw four times, Fau was flabbergasted. Recovering, she asked again
how much is five plus five and got the correct answer.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Soon Rolf was extracting square roots. His mistress taught
him German alphabets. Within a short time he could communicate by signaling the
letters of alphabets with his paw. Rolf and Frau Moekel travelled widely giving
public demonstrations. He was tested by top scientists. Rolf could identify
flowers in a bouquet presented to him.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Once when asked the meaning of autumn he answered, ”Time for
apples”.He could be naughty too. When asked by a lady secretary of a
psychologist if there was anything that she could do for him Rolf answered, ”Wag
your tail.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Rolf’s abilities were passed on to his daughter Lola was owned
by a lady named Henny Kindermann. Initially Lola was slow to learn but later
turned out to be a superb scholar. She learnt to signal numbers using her paws.
She used the decimal system by tapping with her left paw to indicate tens and
right paw to show units. Lola even learnt to read.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Once Lola disappeared for some time. When asked about it she
said she went to the “woods to “marry”. She even correctly predicted how many
puppies she would have. She began to refer to herself as “I” rather than “Lola”
as before. When asked if she would like to become a human being she replied in
the negative. Her reason – people worked too hard. When asked by her mistress “Do
you belong to me Lola?” she answered “No”, that belonged to myself.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Fell with a thundering noise.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">with uncontrollable waves</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Story
telling is an art-whether it’s the sort of tale you tell your wife when you
come creeping in the morning, or the kind that puts junior to sleep at night.
If you can spin a yarn that hold the attention of your audience , regardless of
age and bent of mind, you may count yourself among the chosen few.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Those
parents who are endowed with the art of telling enthralling tales to their
children, find it an invaluable sugarcoating with pleasant tasks, such as
putting junior to bed or washing his hair. And telling the story provides an
even stronger link between parents and child than just reading a story can
forge.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The habit of
story-telling, in particular has grown into a nightly bed-time custom. Once
young sunny is tucked in, his father
stretches out on the bed beside him, turns out the light, and out of thin air
concocts his story about the imaginary people he has created for his child’s
benefit.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Telling a
story also gives the father a chance to impart some actual knowledge ,as well
as nonsense. And, above all, the father feels that his innocent tales are a
relief from the horror tales in comics, and, actually, even in some of our well
known fairy tales.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Story-telling
is an old art. In ancient times we find the Greeks and Romans with their great
amphitheaters. At these large gatherings were professional story-tellers, whose
words were more vividly impressed upon the minds of the listeners by means of
actors in pantomime.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“When
reading a story, you are tied down to the author’s words and thus are
attempting to assume his personality. You are really not ‘feeling’ the story.
You are unable to watch the facial expressions of the audience”.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">By telling
the story you can adapt the same story to many different types of audience and
to suit their moods. You have the writer’s thought and ideas in your mind, but
you are able to give the author’s main ideas plus convey in part something of
your own personality.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are a
few little ticks of technique that a good story- teller uses whether consciously
or unconsciously. A pause, judiciously employed, is one of the most important
.It gives the mind time to grasp a new idea, allows the listener to assimilate what has gone before,
gives emphasis and arouses suspense.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gestures are
good , but be careful not to overdo it. Mimicry, if you are capable of it ,is
very good especially with younger children. To secure the attention of your
audience ,use a striking beginning, which will enlist their interest right from
the start.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Stories have
both educational and emotional value. Stories are childhood’s form of
expressions and it is through stories that the child’s mind is developed.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Stories give
a child a better insight into human emotion. Stories stimulate and direct
literary pursuits. A good instance of their emotional value is the development
of sympathy towards animals. Stories may also be used to encourage respect for,
and care of, elderly people.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Genius is
often precocious. Precocious originality is one of the characteristics of
genius, many philosophers affirm that genius consists in an exaggerated
development of one faculty at the expense of others.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dante, when
nine years old, wrote a sonnet to Beatrice, Tasso wrote verses at Ten. Pascal
and Comte were great thinkers at the age of 13,Fornier at 15,Niebubr at seven. Goethe
wrote a story in seven languages when was only at ten.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Delay in the
development of genius may be explained by the absence of circumstances favourable
to its bloosming, and by the ignorance of teachers and parents who see mental
obtuisity, even idiocy, where there is only the distraction of genius. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many
children who became great men have been regarded at school as bad, but their
intelligence soon manifested itself. Gustav Flaubert was the very opposite of a
phenomenal child. It was with extreme difficulty that he succeeded in learning
to read.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many eminent
men who were acclaimed in later life for their genius were backward in their
scholastic career. Einstein himself was considered a poor student in school and
failed in the entrance examination for the polytechnicum in Zurich. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Education, however
indispensable in a cultivated age, produces nothing on the side of genius. Where
education ends, genius often begins. Gray was asked if he recollected when he
first felt that the strong predilection to poetry. He replied that “he believed
it was when he began to read Virgil for his own amusement and not in school
hours as a task”.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nevertheless,
going through the life span of many eminent persons, who influenced the world, it
was rightly said that that the child is the father of man, nothing could be truer
than in the case of the genius.</span><span style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Faith is one
of the most significant aspects of human existence, both when it is given and
when it is received. The knowledge that someone expects the best from us works
wonders in our lives.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We give our
best when the best is expected of us. When we realize that someone has high
hopes in us and the faith that we are capable of high performance, we tend to
fulfill their hopes.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If the high
expectations others have in us to realize them, it is also true in the case of
negative behavior. The undesirable behavior of many children may be the result
of the expectations by parents, teachers and class mates that they will behave
in that manner.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The
expectations of people significant to us is communicated to us in diverse ways,
often quite unwittingly through a smile, a nod, their tone of voice, posture,
facial expressions and so on. These tend to change our belief in ourselves and encourage
us to do better.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If someone
expects to behave in a friendly manner towards him, we do not become hostile. We
do not behave harshly towards someone who believes we are kind and gentle. We
tend to be helpful towards someone who we know expects our help and counts on
our helpfulness.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We make our
lives successful because there are people who believe in us and set us on the
road to confident achievement. They often do that even before we are capable of
consciously believing in ourselves. If we esteem ourselves, it is because others
have esteemed us first. The great gift a person who loves us can give to us is
to have faith in us. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From early
childhood we grow because of the love we receive from others at a time we are
only capable of receiving. Whether we like or not, we are dependent on other
people who are important in our lives and who make us grow by the faith they
response in us. We are trusting and trustworthy because others have trusted us
first. We become lovable because others have loved us and made us lovable.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is a
common experience that those who love us bring out the best in us. We respond
to their love in ways that promote our own growth. Our splendid dreams in life,
our hidden talents and noble aspirations blossom in the sunshine of the warmth
and acceptance that others offer us.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The love and
acceptance given to people who need it for their growth, is not wasted. There
are so many us in whose lives there is at least one person to whom we attribute
a key role in our success drama. We can tell them that we are successful
because they thought that we could be.</span><span style="font-size: medium;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">The feeling
that someone is waiting for us can work miracles in our lives. We all need
someone to wait for us. When you return home from a long and difficult journey,
you are happy at the thought your family and your friends will be waiting for
your arrival. You want to share your experiences of pain, hardships and
exhilaration with someone who stayed home and awaiting your return.</span></div>

who is posted in difficult boarder areas and in constant danger, keeps his

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">One spouse
wait for the other to return home after a long span of time engaged in his
duties.</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">An elderly
father and mother wait for their son to come from a faraway place before they
give up the struggle and die. Their waiting gives them life and hope.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We are
fortunate if there is at least one person waiting for us. That awareness gives
joy in living and a fresh lease of life when there seems to be no other reason
to carry on. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thousands of
people give up hope and commit suicide or just fade away and die because there
is no one to light up their lives. They do not know of anyone waiting for them.
So then it hardly matters if they have a tomorrow or not.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Waiting, of
course is not limited to a brief period of time. It may span many years of
one’s life. It may be for someone to change his ways and grow. Perhaps the most
beautiful example of waiting is parents waiting hopefully for their children to
grow. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They watch
them as they grow, confident that the little ones will one day become big. They
know they can trust their children to grow in their own ways and that they need
not be overprotected and insured against all insecurities. They know that their
children’s lives and their hope in them will blossom to their fullness and
their waiting will not be futile.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">If our
waiting for others can produce dramatic and lasting results, we have
considerable power for good in the lives of others. We can make gratitude to
those who have loved us and waited for us that we in turn can wait for others
and promote their growth and well-being.</span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: small;">He walked down from</span></b></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>The mountain heights</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>And saw dark strife</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Grappling with the world</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Weaving counterfeit nights</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>His blood tickled down</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>His transfixed hands</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>On the luminous globe</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Brother fought brother</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Lies were told</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Till truth became a legend</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Children starved</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Shivered in the cold</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>And five-star hotels</b></div>

<b>Threw left-overs into </b></div>

<b>But He reminded Himself </b></div>

<b>That as God He had </b></div>

</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">

<b>He wept,wept </b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b style="text-align: left;"><div style="display: inline !important; text-align: center;">
<b>And the blood and tears mingled </b></div>
</b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>And drizzled in autumn loveliness </b></div>
</b><b><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Over the frenzied earth.</b></div>
