Little Boys Meeting with

God

There once was a little boy who wanted to meet God. He

knew it was a long trip to where God lived, so he packed his
suitcase with Twinkies and a six-pack of root beer and started his
journey. When he had gone about three blocks, he met an old
woman. She was sitting in the park just staring at some pigeons.
The boy sat down next to her and opened his suitcase. He
was about to take a drink from his root beer when he noticed that
the old lady looked hungry, so he offered her a Twinkie. She
gratefully accepted it and smiled at him. Her smile was so pretty
that the boy wanted to see it again, so he offered her a root beer.
Once again she smiled at him. The boy was delighted! They sat
there all afternoon eating and smiling, but they never said a word.
As it grew dark, the boy realized how tired he was, and he
got up to leave but before he had gone more than a few steps, he
turned around, ran back to the old woman and gave her a hug.
She gave him her biggest smile ever. When the boy opened the
door to his own house a short time later, his mother was surprised
by the look of joy on his face. She asked him, What did you do
today that made you so happy? He replied, I had lunch with
God. But, before his mother could respond, he added, You know
what? Shes got the most beautiful smile Ive ever seen!
Meanwhile, the old woman, also radiant with joy, returned to
her home. Her son was stunned by the look of peace on her face
and he asked, Mother, what did you do today that made you so
happy? She replied, I ate Twinkies in the park with God. But,

before her son responded, she added, You know, hes much
younger than I expected.
Moral: God is everywhere. We just need to share our
happiness and make others smile to feel him.

Smartest Man in the

World

A doctor, a lawyer, a little boy and a priest were out for a

Sunday afternoon flight on a small private plane.
Suddenly, the plane developed engine trouble. In spite of
the best efforts of the pilot, the plane started to go down.
Finally, the pilot grabbed a parachute and yelled to the
passengers that they better jump, and he himself bailed
out.
Unfortunately, there were only three parachutes
remaining.
The doctor grabbed one and said Im a doctor, I save
lives, so I must live, and jumped out.
The lawyer then said, Im a lawyer and lawyers are the
smartest people in the world. I deserve to live. He also
grabbed a parachute and jumped.

The priest looked at the little boy and said, My son, Ive
lived a long and full life. You are young and have your
whole life ahead of you. Take the last parachute and live
in peace.
The little boy handed the parachute back to the priest
and said, Not to worry Father. The smartest man in the
world just took off with my back pack.
Moral: Your job doesnt always define you, but
being a Good Human being Does.

The Lion and The Mouse

A Mouse running over his face awakened a Lion from sleep. Rising
up angrily, he caught him and was about to kill him. Then the Mouse
piteously entreated, saying:
If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your
kindness. The Lion laughed at him but allowed him go. It happened
shortly after this that some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes
to the ground, caught the Lion. The Mouse, recognizing his roar,

came and gnawed the rope with his teeth, and set him free,
exclaiming:
You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, never
expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favor, Now
you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits on a
Lion.
Moral: It is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits on a
Lion.

Baby Camel and Mother

A mother and a baby camel were lying around, and suddenly the
baby camel asked, mother, may I ask you some questions? Mother
said, Sure! Why son, is there something bothering you? Baby said,
Why do camels have humps? Mother said Well son, we are desert
animals, we need the humps to store water and we are known to
survive without water. Baby said, Okay, then why are our legs
long and our feet rounded? Mother said, Son, obviously they are

meant for walking in the desert. You know with these legs I can
move around the desert better than anyone does! Baby said,
Okay, then why are our eyelashes long? Sometimes it bothers my
sight. Mother with pride said, My son, those long thick eyelashes
are your protective cover. They help to protect your eyes from the
desert sand and wind.
Baby after thinking said, I see. So the hump is to store water when
we are in the desert, the legs are for walking through the desert and
these eye lashes protect my eyes from the desert then what in gods
name are we doing here in the Zoo!?
Moral: Skills, knowledge, abilities and experiences are only useful if
you are at the right place.

Never to Give Up

One day a farmers donkey fell down into a well. The animal cried
piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally, he

decided the animal was old and the well needed to be covered up anyway
it just wasnt worth it to retrieve the donkey. He invited all his neighbors
to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and begin to shovel
dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and
cried horribly. Then, to everyones amazement, he quieted down.
A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well and was
astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that fell on his back,
the donkey was doing something amazing. He would shake it off and take
a step up. As the farmers neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the
animal, he would shake it off and take a step up.
Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the
edge of the well and trotted off!
Moral: Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick is too
not to get bogged down by it. We can get out of the deepest wells by not
stopping. And by never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up!
