What Love means to a 4-8 year old…

What Love means to a 4-8 year old. . Slow down for three minutes to read this. It is so worth it.. Touching words from the mouth of babes. 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.’ Rebecca- age 8 ‘When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.’ Billy – age 4 ‘Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.’ Chrissy – age 6 ‘Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired..’ Terri – age 4 ‘Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.’ Danny – age 7 ‘Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss’ Emily – age 8 ‘Love is what’s in the room with you as if you stop opening presents and listen.’ Bobby – age 7 (Wow!)   ‘If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate,’ Nikka – age 6 (we need a few million more Nikka’s on this planet) ‘Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday.’ Noelle – age 7 ‘Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well.’ Tommy – age 6 ‘During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling. He was the only one doing that.. I wasn’t scared anymore.’ Cindy – age 8   ‘My mommy loves me more than anybody You don’t see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night.’ Clare – age 6   ‘Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken..’ Elaine-age 5   ‘Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford.’ Chris – age 7   ‘Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.’ Mary Ann – age 4 ‘I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones.’ Lauren – age 4   ‘When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you.’ (what an image) Karen – age 7   ‘Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn’t think it’s gross.’ Mark – age 6 ‘You really shouldn’t say ‘I love you’ unless you mean it… But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.’ Jessica – age 8 And the final one 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’

Have you ever, at any one time, had the feeling that life
is bad, real bad, and you wish you were in another situation?

You find life make things difficult for you, work sucks,
life sucks, everything seems to go wrong….

Read the following story… it may change your views about
life:

After a conversation with one of my friends, he told me
despite taking 2 jobs, he brings back barely above 1K per
month, he is happy as he is.
I wonder how he can be as happy as he is considering he has
to skimp his life with the low pay to support a pair of old
parents, in-laws, a wife, 2 daughters and the many bills of
a household.

He explained that it was through one incident that he saw
in India that happened a few years ago when he was really
feeling low and touring India after a
major setback.. He said that right in front of his very eyes
he saw an Indian mother chop off her child’s right hand
with a chopper.
The helplessness in the mother’s eyes, the scream of
pain from the
innocent 4-year-old child haunted him until today.

You may ask why did the mother do so; had the child been
naughty,
had the child’s hand been infected?? No,
it was done for two simple words- – -TO BEG!

The desperate mother deliberately caused the child to be
handicapped
so that the child could go out to the streets to beg.
Taken aback by the scene, he dropped a piece of bread he
was eating half-way. And almost instantly, a flock 5 or 6
children swamped towards this small piece of bread which was
covered with sand, robbing bits from one another. The
natural reaction of hunger. Stricken by the happenings, he
instructed his guide to drive him to the
nearest bakery. He arrived at two bakeries and bought every
single loaf of bread he found in the bakeries. The owner was
dumbfounded but willingly sold
everything. He spent less than $100 to obtain about 400
loaves of bread (this is less than $0.25 per
loaf) and spent another $100 to get daily
necessities.
Off he went in the truck full of bread into the streets. As
he distributed the bread and necessities to the children
(mostly handicapped) and a few adults, he received cheers
and bows from these unfortunate. For the
first time in his life he wondered how people can give up
their dignity for a loaf of bread which cost less than
$0.25.

He began to tell himself how fortunate he is. How fortunate
he is to be able to have a complete body, have a job! , have
a family, have the chance to complain what food is nice and
what isn’t nice, have the chance to be clothed, have the
many things that these people in front of him are
deprived of…

Now I begin to think and feel it, too! Was my life really
that bad?

Perhaps… no, I should not feel bad at all… What about
you?
Maybe the next time you think you are, think about the child
who lost one hand to beg on the streets.

“Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want,
it is the realization of how much you already have.”

When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often
times we look so long at the closed door that we don’t
see the one which has been opened for us.

It’s true that we don’t know what we’ve got
until we lose it, but it’s also
true that! we don’t know what we’ve been missing
until it arrives.
The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best
of everything; they just
make the most of everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten
past, you can’t go on well in life until you let go of
your past failures and heartaches.

Please send this message to those people who mean something
to you, to those who have touched your life in one way or
another, to those who make you smile when you really need
it, to those that make you see the brighter
side of things when you are really down, to those who you
want to let them know that you appreciate their friendship.

And if you don’t, don’t worry, nothing bad will
happen to you, you will just miss out on the opportunity to
brighten someone’s day with this message.

MUST READ, EVEN IF YOU DON’T OWN A CAR

Please send this in formation to ALL your family & friends, especially those who have kids in the car with them while pumping gas. If this were to happen, they may not be able to get the children out in time.
 MUST READ, EVEN IF YOU DON’T OWN A CAR.

Shell Oil Comments – A MUST READ! Safety Alert! Here’s some reasons why we don’t allow cell phones in operating areas, propylene oxide handling and storage area, propane, gas and diesel refueling areas. The Shell Oil Company recently issued a warning after three incidents in which mobile phones (cell phones) ignited fumes during fueling operations In the first case, the phone was placed on the car’s trunk lid during fueling; it rang and the ensuing fire destroyed the car and the gasoline pump. In the second, an individual suffered severe burns to their face when fumes ignited as they answered a call while refueling their car! And in the third, an individual suffered burns to the thigh and groin as fumes ignited when the phone, which was in their pocket, rang while they were fueling their car. You should know that: Mobile Phones can ignite fuel or fumes Mobile phones that light up when switched on or when they ring release enough energy to provide a spark for ignition Mobile phones should not be used in filling stations, or when fueling lawn mowers, boat, etc. Mobile phones should not be used, or should be turned off, around other materials that generate flammable or explosive fumes or dust, (I.e., solvents, chemicals, gases, grain dust, etc…) TO sum it up, here are the Four Rules for Safe Refueling: 1) Turn off engine 2) Don’t smoke 3) Don’t use your cell phone – leave it inside the vehicle or turn it off 4) Don’t re-enter your vehicle during fueling. Bob Renkes of Petroleum Equipment Institute is working on a campaign to try and make people aware of fires as a result of ‘static electricity’ at gas pumps. His company has researched 150 cases of these fires. His results were very surprising: 1) Out of 150 cases, almost all of them were women. 2) Almost all cases involved the person getting back in their vehicle while the nozzle was still pumping gas. When finished, they went back to pull the nozzle out and the fire started, as a result of static. 3) Most had on rubber-soled shoes. 4) Most men never get back in their vehicle until completely finished. This is why they are seldom involved in these types of fires. 5) Don’t ever use cell phones when pumping gas 6) It is the vapors that come out of the gas that cause the fire, when connected with static charges. 7) There were 29 fires where the vehicle was re-entered and the nozzle was touched during refueling from a variety of makes and models. Some resulted in extensive damage to the vehicle, to the station, and to the customer. 8) Seventeen fires occurred before, during or immediately after the gas cap was removed and before fueling began. Mr. Renkes stresses to NEVER get back into your vehicle while filling it with gas. If you absolutely HAVE to get in your vehicle while the gas is pumping, make sure you get out, close the door TOUCHING THE METAL, before you ever pull the nozzle out. This way the static from your body will be discharged before you ever remove the nozzle. As I mentioned earlier, The Petroleum Equipment Institute, along with several other companies now, are really trying to make the public aware of this danger. I ask you to please send this in formation to ALL your family and friends, especially those who have kids in the car with them while pumping gas. If this were to happen to them, they may not be able to get the children out in time. Thanks for passing this along.

Persimmon- six must – see reminders

Persimmon- six must – see reminders   Although there are many benefits of eating persimmon, but there are a few points that we must be aware of: 1. Persimmons Cannot Be Eaten On An Empty Stomach.    Contains more tannin and pectin, in an empty stomach under the effect of gastric acid, lumps of various sizes will formed, if these lumps can not reach the pyloric intestine, it will remain in the stomach to form gastric persimmon stone.  The stone original is as small as apricots and persimmon seeds nu, but will tend to get larger if naturally expelled from the stomach, it will cause diospyrobezoar the digestive tract obstruction, resulting in upper abdominal pain, vomiting, and even vomiting blood and other symptoms. During surgery, persimmon stone as big as a fist was found in the stomach. If the’s food in the stomach then the persimmon stone formation in the stomach can be avoided . 2. Persimmon Skin Should Not Be Eaten    Some people feel that eating persimmon fruit together with the skin taste betten than just eating the flesh by itself.  Scientifically this is not advisable because the vast majority of persimmon tannin in concentrated in the skin. If eaten toegether with its skin the formation of gastric persimmon stone is easier, especially when the astringent process is incomplete, as its skin contains more tannic acid. 3… Do not eat pesimmon together with high-protein crabs, fish, shrimp and other foods    In Chinese medicine, crab and persimmon are considered “cold foods”, therefore they cannot be eaten together. From the perspective of modern medicine, crab, fish and shrimp contains high level of protein and thus under the effect of the tannic acid, it is easy to solidified into blocks, namely, stomach persimmon stone. 4. Diabetics Should Not Eat Pesimmon    Persimmon has 10.8%  sugars content, and most are simple pairs of sugar and simple sugars (sucrose, fructose, glucose is such), which can easily be absorbed by our body after eating which may result in hyperglycemia. For diabetic people, especially those with poor glycemic control, it is even more harmful. 5. Enough is enough    The tannic acid in persimmon together with dietary calcium, zinc, magnesium, iron and other minerals form compounds that cannot be absorbed by the body so that these nutrients can not be used and therefore eating persimmons can easily lead to a lack of these minerals. And because there is more sugar in persimmon, eating the same amount of pesimmon compared to apples or pears will make one fill full faster hence will affect one’s appetite, and reduce the intake of meals. Generally, with an empty stomach, it is advisable that not more than 200 grams of persimmon should be taken. 6. Mouthwash after eating    Persimmon has is high in sugar and contains pectin. After eating persimmon there will be some of the fruits remaining in the mouth, especially in between the teeth. With the acidic properties of the high tannic acid it is easy to cause tooth decay, the formation of dental caries. Therefore after eating persimmons it is advisable to drink some water or to rinse our mouths. Thanks to Eric

FW: Very touchinnnnnnnnnggggggggg story

This is based on a true story………it’s very touching. U have to read … Enjoy !!!…

A rich businessman had a beautiful daughter, who fell in love with a guy who was a cleaner.

When the girl’s father came to know about their love, he did not like it at all, and so began to protest about it.

Now it happened that the two lovers decided to leave their homes for a happy future. The girl’s father started searching for the two lovers but could not find them.

At last, he accepted their love and asked them to come back home in a local newspaper. Her father said “If you both come back I will allow you to marry the guy you love, I accept that you loved each other truly.”

So in this way, their love won and they returned home.

The couple went to town to shop for the wedding dress..
He was dressed in white shirt that day. While he was crossing the road to the other side to get some drinks for his wife, a car came and hit him and he died on the spot. The girl lost her senses. It was only after sometimes that she recovered from her shocked. The funeral and cremation was the very next day because he had died horribly.

Two nights later, the girl’s mother had a dream in which she saw an old lady. The old lady asked her mother to wash the
blood stains of the guy from her daughter’s dress as soon as possible. But her mother ignored the dream.

The next night her father had the same dream, he also ignored it.
Then when the girl had the same dream the next night, she woke up in fear and told her mother about the dream. Her mother asked her to wash the clothes which have blood stains immediately.

She washed the stains but some remained. Next night she again had the same dream she again washed the stains but some still remained.

Next night she again had the same dream and this time the old lady gave her a last warning to wash the blood stain, or
else something terrible will happen. This time the girl tried her best to wash the stains, and the clothes nearly tore, but some stains still remained.

She was very tired.  Late that evening the same day while she was alone at home, someone knocked at the door. When she opened the door she saw the same old lady of her dream standing at her door. She got very scared and fainted.

The old lady woke her up… and gave her a blue  object, which shocked the girl. She asked “What is this…?”

The old lady replied…

“Try DYNAMO Liquid Soap… just a dab and it will remove all stubborn stains!!!” …

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

I know how you feel now… I have been through this too.

But don’t look at me like that … I’m also hunting for the idiot who mailed this to me!

 

 

HAVE A NICE WEEKEND.
