A
teacher assigned the class to list the "Seven Wonders of the World."
Though there were some disagreements, the following received 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 student
had not finished her paper yet. So she asked the girl if
she was having trouble with her list. The girl replied,
"Yes, a little. I couldn't quite make up my mind

The teacher said, "Well, tell us what you have, and
maybe we can help."
The girl hesitated, then read,
"Actually, what the 'Seven Wonders of the World' really are is...
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

Here's a gentle reminder for you.
The most precious things in life
cannot be built by hand or bought by man.
They are found within the quietness of your heart and home...
