Seven Wonders Of The World
A group of students were asked to list what they thought were the present
"Seven Wonders of the World". Though there were some disagreement, the
following recieved 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
finished her paper yet. So she asked the student if she was having trouble
with her list. The girl replied, "Yes, a little. I couldn't quite make up my
mind because there are 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. and to love
The room was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. The things we overlook as simple and ordinary and that we take for granted are truly wonderous.
A gentle reminder: that the most precious things in the life can not be built by hand or bought by man.
