| Tuesday, Chris and I set up an appointment with the court house for thursday morning to get an old ticket squashed and dismissed. We were successful and ate breakfast at the Old Mill Cafe. I called my mother and she said she wasn't feeling very good and was going to the doctor on the 27th of this month. I called my little brother and talked to him for awhile yesterday. He was doing ok and was working, paying the bills, and kind of bored. He asked me to call him back in a few days. After living in California all of his life, he's having trouble getting used to the quiet life in Texarkana-Texas. I talked to my older sister Pam, when I called my mother, and she said she was moving to another state, where my aunt sissy lives. I guess sissy is doing alright. I am very happy for her and I just know that Grandpa is very proud of her too. Tony, my little brother, is so,so, good at playing and teaching tennis, it's unreal. He lights up the court with a blaze of fury, and you can hear the racket and the ball meeting, from blocks away. It's like Paul Bunian, swinging his axe. Selah: | |||||||||||
| As I am writing, Edward Peirce just sat down at the computer next to me. Last night, at the mission, with permission, Edward gave his testimony. Immediatly, he started crying and said he has been battling cancer for three yrs. He said it started out as first and second stages, but now is in the fourth and latter stages, wich means he doesn't have a lot of time. Everyone became silent as he talked with eyes full of tears. We didn't know what to think, or what to say. At the end of his testimony, he stated that he became a Christian last yr. and he is releaved to know where he will spend eternity. He also said he didn't want to burn in hell. Everyone prayed for him, then went into the cafeteria where we ate our dinner, and retired for the evening. Today, Edward Peirce sits next to me in the Library, working on the computer. Tomorrow, he will be somewhere else. Where will you be tommorrow? Eyes Full Of Tears |
