    An Explanation Of God, By An 8 Year Old. Could You Have Done As Well?

    / 1 Comment

    An Explanation Of God, By An 8 Year Old. Could You Have Done As Well? This was written by an 8-year-old named Danny Dutton, who lives in Chula Vista , CA . He wrote it for his third grade homework assignment, to ‘explain God.’ I wonder if any of us could have done as well? EXPLANATION OF GOD:‘One of God’s main jobs is making people. He makes them to replace the ones that die, so there will be enough people to take care of things on earth. He doesn’t make grownups, just babies. I think because they are smaller and easier to make. That way he doesn’t have to take…

    The Law Of The Garbage Truck

    / No Comments

    The Law Of The Garbage Truck One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport.We were driving in the right lane, when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly. So I asked, ‘Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!’…

    The Three Trees (An Important Life Lesson)

    / 2 Comments

    The Three Trees (An Important Life Lesson) There were three trees on a hill in the woods. They were discussing their opes and dreams when the first tree said, ‘Someday I hope to be a treasure chest. I could be filled with gold, silver and precious gems. I could be decorated with intricate carving and everyone would see the beauty.’ Then the second tree said, ‘Someday I will be a mighty ship. I will take Kings and Queens across the waters and sail to the corners of the world. Everyone will feel safe in me because of the strength of my hull.’ Finally the third tree said, ‘I want to…

    21 Things Everyone Over 60 Must Read

    / 10 Comments

    The “21 Things Everyone Over 60 Must Read” was originally sent to me by a friend. It said that most of us were between 65 and death. I personally think these 21 pieces of advice should be for those that are 60+. While I know some will not agree with all of these, I believe everyone will agree with at least one or two of them. As with our hugely popular posts 50 Things Every Woman Should Have By Age 50  and What Not To Wear After Age 50 – It Might Not Be What You Think these are just some ideas to get our minds to thinking. 1.

    There’s A Mousetrap In The House is an important life lesson that all of us should learn, as we are all in this journey called LIFE…together! A mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package. “What food might this contain?” The mouse wondered. He was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap. Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed this warning :“There is a mousetrap in the house!there is a mousetrap in the house!” The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, “Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but it is of…

    / 4 Comments

    But We Didn’t Have The Green Thing Back In Our Day Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the older woman, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren’t …good for the environment. The woman apologized and explained, We didn’t have this green thing back in my earlier days. The young clerk responded, That’s our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations. She was right our generation didn’t have the green thing in its day. Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to…

    People Will Always Remember How You Make Them Feel This story came to me many years ago and I am not even sure I remember exactly who sent it to me, however, I thought it was an important lesson for each of us to learn. I do hope you will share and help others learn as well. I arrived at the address and honked the horn. After waiting a few minutes I honked again. Since this was going to be my last ride of my shift, I thought about just driving away, but instead I put the car in park and walked up to the door and knocked. Just a…
