wann be my friend

 Slow down for three minutes to read this. It is so worth it.

 Touching words from the mouth of babes. What does Love mean? A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, "What does love mean?" The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:

"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn't bend over and paint her toenails anymore. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That's love.

" And the final one -- Author and lecturer Leo Buscaglia once talked about a contest he was asked to judge. The purpose of the contest was to find the most caring child. The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife. Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman's yard, climbed onto his lap, and just sat there. When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said, "Nothing, I just helped him cry"

When there is nothing left but God, that is when you find out that God is all you need. Take 60 seconds and give this a shot! All you do is simply say the following small prayer for the person who sent you this.

 God bless all my friends in whatever it is that You know they may be needing this day! And may their life be full of your peace, prosperity and power as he/she seeks to have a closer relationship with you. Amen.

Then send it on to five other people. Within hours you caused a multitude of people to pray for other people. Then sit back and watch the power of God work in your life. P.S. Five is good, but more is better.

  One  day, while a woodcutter was cutting a branch of
a tree above a
river,   his  axe  fell  into  the  river. When he
cried out, the Lord appeared
and   asked,  "Why  are  you  crying?"  The
woodcutter replied that his axe
has   fallen   into water. The Lord went down into
the water and reappeared
with  a  golden axe. "Is this your axe?" the Lord
asked. The woodcutter
replied,
  "No."
    The  Lord  again  went  down  and came up with a
silver axe. "Is this
your   axe?" the  Lord asked.
  Again, the woodcutter replied, "No."

  The  Lord  went  down  again  and  came up with an
iron axe. "Is this
your   axe?"the  Lord asked.
  The woodcutter replied, "Yes."

  The Lord was pleased with the man's honesty and gave
him all three axes
to   keep, and the woodcutter went home happily.

  One  day  while  he  was  walking  with  his wife
along the riverbank,
the   woodcutter's  wife  fell into the river. When
he cried out, the Lord
again   appeared and asked him, "Why are you crying?"
 
  "Oh Lord, my wife has fallen into the water!"

  The  Lord  went  down  into the water and came up
with Jennifer Lopez.
"Is   this your wife?" the Lord asked. "Yes," cried
the woodcutter.


   The  Lord  was  furious.  "You  cheat! That is an
untruth!" The
woodcutter   replied,  "Oh,  forgive me, my Lord. It
is a misunderstanding. You see,
if   I said 'no' to Jennifer Lopez, You will come up
with Catherine
Zeta-Jones.   Then if I also say 'no' to her, You
will thirdly come up with my wife,
and   I will say 'yes,' and then all three will be
given to me. But Lord, I am
a   poor man and I will not be able to take care of
all three wives, so
that's   why I said yes this time."
  The  moral  of the story is whenever a man lies it
is for an honorable
and   useful reason.

 
I see the sun in the sky
Trees are moving through the wind
Who am I..?
What's my place in this great world..?
Am I like the trees..?
Like the sun..?
Like the sky..?
I try to find my way in this life
But that isn't easy to me
 
Some people say
When you body die,
your soul live further
you will live further in the mind of your friends..
But what if your soul dies..?
You have to go on
Even when you don't want..
 
Will someone miss me someday, when I die
in this big world . . .

Imagine this ...

You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night, it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for a bus:

1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.

2. An old friend who once saved your life.

3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car?































Think before you continue reading............
















This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.

* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first;

* or you coul! d take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect hance to pay him back.

* However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.



The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer.






























He simply answered: "I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams."

Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."

As you got up this morning, I watched you and hoped you would talk to
me, even if it was just a few words, asking my opinion or thanking me
for something good that happened in your life yesterday - but I noticed
you were to busy trying to find the right outfit to put on and wear to
work.

I waited again. When you ran around the house getting ready I knew
there
would be a few minutes for you to stop and say hello, but you were too
busy.

At one point you had to wait fifteen minutes with nothing to do except
sit in a chair.

Then I saw you spring to your feet. I thought you wanted to talk to me
but you ran to the phone and called a friend to get the latest gossip.

I watched as you went to work and I waited patiently all day long.

With all your activities I guess you were too busy to say anything to
me.

I noticed that before lunch you looked around, maybe you felt
embarrassed to talk to me, that is why you didn't bow your head.

You glanced three or four tables over and you noticed some of your
friends talking to me briefly before they ate, but you didn't.

That's okay.

There is still more time left, and I have hope that you will talk to me
yet you went home and it seems as if you had lots of things to do.

After a few of them were done you turned on the TV, I don't know if you
like TV or not, just about anything goes there & you spent a lot of
time each day in front of it, not thinking about anything - just
enjoying the show.

I waited patiently again as you watched the TV and ate your meal but
again you didn't talk to me.

Bedtime I guess you felt too tired.

After you said goodnight to your family you plopped into bed and fell
asleep in no time.

That's okay because you may not realize that I am always there for you.
I've got patience more than you will ever know.

I even want to teach you how to be patient with others as well.

I love you so much that I wait everyday for a nod, prayer or thought or
a thankful part of your heart.

It is hard to have a one-sided conversation.

Well you are getting up again and once again I will wait with nothing
but love for you hoping that today you will give me some time.

Have a nice day!

Your friend,

GOD

A friend is someone we treasure
For our friendship is a gift.

A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace

And makes the world we live in
a better and happier place.

There is a miracle called friendship
that dwells in the heart.
You do not know how it happens
or when it gets its start.

But you know the special lift
it always brings.
You realize that friendship
is God's most precious gift!

Remember, everyone needs a friend! Some day you might feel like you have NO FRIENDS at all -- just remember this e-card and take comfort in knowing somebody out there cares about you and always will...

Keep smiling!
