Seven Wonders of the World

Geography students at the end of the semester were asked to list what each considered the Seven Wonders of the World. The following gathered the most votes: Egypt's Great Pyramids, the Taj Mahal, the Grand Canyon, the Panama Canal, the Empire States Building, St. Peter's Basilica and China's Great Wall.

One quiet girl had not turned her paper in yet. The teacher suggested, "Well, tell us what you have and maybe we can help."
She began to read, "I think the Seven Wonders of the World are to touch, to taste, to see and to hear..."
She hesitated, "And then to run, to laugh and to love."

That's some of the best advice I've ever read
I love you all

  2. I read your post earlier and it reminded me of a song that now I can't get out of my head so I am going to give it to you. It is by Alan Jackson and its called Life or Love and the chorus goes like this:

    But I'm hangin tough
    I ain't had enough
    I ain't givin' up on life or love

    Life is such a precious gift and this story reminded me of how blessed I am, so thanks. Dont forget to sminkle God loves you and so do I!
