thought i might share this story with u:
A group of students were asked to list what they thought were the
present Seven Wonders of the World. Though there was some
disagreement, the following got the most votes:
1. Egypt's Great Pyramids
2. Taj Mahal
3. Grand Canyon
4. Panama Canal
5. Empire State Building
6. St. Peter's Basilica
7. China's Great Wall
While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one quiet student
hadn't turned in her paper yet. So she asked the girl if she was having
trouble with her list. The girl replied, "Yes, a little. I couldn't quite
make up my mind because there were so many." The teacher said,
"Well, tell us what you have, and maybe we can help."
The girl hesitated, then read,
I think the Seven Wonders of the World are:
1. To touch
2. To taste
3. To see
4. To hear
She hesitated a little, and then added
5. To feel
6. To laugh
7. And to love
The room was so full of silence you could have heard a pin drop. Those
things we overlook as simple and "ordinary" are truly wondrous. A
gentle reminder that the most precious things in life cannot be bought.
I'm going to stop procrastinating ... once I get around to it.
