Charlie Chaplin once told a joke in front of an audience..!!
Everyone laughed

And he told it a second time, so only a few laughed.

When he told it for the third time, no one laughed.

Then he said beautiful words.

If you can't laugh and laugh at the same joke, why do you cry and cry at the same pain and sorrow?

So enjoy every moment of your life - Charlie Chaplin left a great legacy without saying a word or hurting anyone's feelings. We remember these phrases that touch the heart.

*** Nothing in this life is permanent, not even our Problems.
*** I love walking in the rain so no one can see my tears.
*** The day you waste the most in your life is the day you don't laugh.

A father said to his daughter “You have graduated with honors, here is a car I bought many years ago. It is pretty old now. But before I give it to you, take it to the used car lot downtown and tell them I want to sell it and see how much they offer you for it.”

The daughter went to the used car lot, returned to her father and said, “They offered me $1,000 because the said it looks pretty worn out.”

The father said, now “Take it to the pawn shop.” The daughter went to the pawn shop, returned to her father and said,”The pawn shop offered only $100 because it is an old car.”

The father asked his daughter to go to a car club now and show them the car. The daughter then took the car to the club, returned and told her father,” Some people in the club offered $100,000 for it because “it's an iconic car and sought by many collectors.”

Now the father said this to his daughter, “The right place values you the right way,” If you are not valued, do not be angry, it means you are in the wrong place. Those who know your value are those who appreciate you......Never stay in a place where no one sees your value.

A bottle of water in the supermarket is worth about 50 cents. The same bottle in a bar costs $2. In a good restaurant or hotel it can be worth up to $3. At an airport or on the plane, you may be charged $5. The bottle and the brand is the same, the only thing that changes is the place. Each place gives a different value to the same product. When you feel like you are worth nothing and everyone around you belittles you, change places, do not stay there. Have the courage to change places and go to a place where you are given the value you deserve. Surround yourself with people who really appreciate your worth. Don't settle for less!

Kenyan runner, Abel Mutai was just a few meters from the finish line but got confused by the signage and stopped, thinking he had finished the race. A Spanish runner, Ivan Fernandez, running behind him realized what was happening with his fellow competitor and started yelling at the Kenyan, "Keep running! Keep running!". Abel Mutai did not know Spanish and did not understand it. In the middle of a race between world class competitors, Ivan Fernandez had encouraged Abel Mutai to claim the prestigious victory.

When a journalist asked Ivan why he did that. Ivan replied, ′′ My dream is that one day we can have a kind of community life in which we push each other and help each other to win."

The journalist pressed, ′′ But why did you let the Kenyan win?"

Ivan replied, ′′ I didn't let him win, he was already going to win. The race was his."

The journalist insisted, ′′ But you could have won!"

Ivan looked at him and replied, ′′ But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor in that medal? What would my mother think of that?"

Values are passed down from generation to generation. What values do we teach our children? Let's not teach our children the wrong ways and means to win. Instead let's pass on the beauty and humanity of a offering a helping hand.

I didn't know that...Wow :O

I had a rattlesnake bite one of my sheep in the face right on the nose about a week ago. Deadliest snake they are around here. The sheep swelled up his face swelled up it hurt but the old rattlesnake didn't know the kind of blood that flows through the sheep.

Antivenom is often most of the time actually made of sheep's blood. The sheep swelled up for about 2 days but then the blood of the Lamb destroyed the venom from the snake I was worried but those sheep didn't care she kept on eating she kept on drinking she kept on climbing the hill cuz she knew she was all right.

Often snakes of this life will reach out and bite you they inject their poison into you but they can't overcome the blood of the Lamb of God that washes away the sin of the world and this sting of death. Don't worry about the snake or his bite just make sure that the Lamb's blood is flowing through your vessels.

Today in one of our classes I introduced the children to two apples (the children didn't know this, but before the class I had repeatedly dropped one of the apples on the floor, you couldn't tell, both apples looked perfect). We talked about the apples and the children described how both apples looked the same; both were red, were of similar size and looked juicy enough to eat.

I picked up the apple I'd dropped on the floor and started to tell the children how I disliked this apple, that I thought it was disgusting, it was a horrible colour and the stem was just too short. I told them that because I didn't like it, I didn't want them to like it either, so they should call it names too.

Some children looked at me like I was insane, but we passed the apple around the circle calling it names, 'you're a smelly apple', 'I don't even know why you exist', 'you've probably got worms inside you' etc.

We really pulled this poor apple apart. I actually started to feel sorry for the little guy.

We then passed another apple around and started to say kind words to it, 'You're a lovely apple', 'Your skin is beautiful', 'What a beautiful colour you are' etc.

I then held up both apples, and again, we talked about the similarities and differences, there was no change, both apples still looked the same.

I then cut the apples open. The apple we'd been kind to was clear, fresh and juicy inside.

The apple we'd said unkind words to was bruised and all mushy inside.

I think there was a lightbulb moment for the children immediately. They really got it, what we saw inside that apple, the bruises, the mush and the broken bits is what is happening inside every one of us when someone mistreats us with their words or actions.

When people are bullied, especially children, they feel horrible inside and sometimes don't show or tell others how they are feeling. If we hadn't have cut that apple open, we would never have known how much pain we had caused it.

I shared my own experience of suffering someone's unkind words last week. On the outside I looked OK, I was still smiling. But, on the inside someone had caused me a lot of pain with their words and I was hurting.

Unlike an apple, we have the ability to stop this from happening. We can teach children that it's not ok to say unkind things to each other and discuss how it makes others feel. We can teach our children to stand up for each other and to stop any form of bullying, just as one little girl did today when she refused to say unkind words to the apple.

More and more hurt and damage happens inside if nobody does anything to stop the bullying. Let's create a generation of kind, caring children.

The tongue has no bones, but is strong enough to break a heart. So be careful with your words.
