What do people say when they talk (pray) to God?

     Do you need a quite, calm place to pray or talk with God? or Can you talk to him while driving to work in rush hour traffic?  How do you talk to God?   Do use standard prayers or just have a conversation?

     Written prayers become boring to me, it's like listening to the same song on the radio all day long day after day.  So I just talk to him like a friend.  All of us ask things from God but do you say thanks to him when things work out to your favor?  Here's a typical prayer (with variations) I might say to God.

     Good morning God! I just wanted to say thanks for all the help you’ve given my family; I appreciate it a lot.  Everything is going pretty well today so I won't take up too much of your time because I know you’re busy.  I am trying to do my best in dealing with others but sometimes I get upset with those idiot drivers I see in traffic, sorry, I know you created them so there not really idiots but sometimes they act that way.  I will try to be more patient; maybe they are having a bad day.  Thanks catch you later, good luck solving those world problems.

     Does God get stressed out hearing of all the problems in the world or maybe the way people react to the problems?  Do people only talk to God when there’s a problem or do they also talk to him when things are going well?  Does God have a sense of humor? Well of course, look around at all the funny things in life.

     I find comfort in talking to God, without always asking for things; truthfully he already knows what you want anyway, so sometimes I just like to say "Hi".  I don't know if others will think of my conversations to God as prayers but it's the way I pray, short and casual.

"Hi God, how's things, here's a new one."
"A man walks in to a bar carrying a duck, What! you've heard it, How can that be? Oh! You wrote it, got ya! I should have known."  "Just Saying...."
