Today's daily dose: 6th October - The seven wonders of the world
---------------------------
A group of students were asked to list what they thought were the present "seven wonders of the world". There were some disagreements but the following got the most votes:
1. Egypt's Great Pyramids
2. The Taj Mahal
3. Grand Canyon
4. The Panama Canal
5. Empire State Building
6. St. Peter's Basilica
7. The Great Wall of China
While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one student hadn't finished her paper. 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 see
2. To hear
3. To touch
4. To taste
5. To feel
6. To laugh
7. To love
The room was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. The things we overlook as simple are ordinary and that we take for granted are truly wondrous!
A gentle reminder to all of us.
As always, with many thoughts
