I received this from a friend who had a choice to make. It said that I had a choice to make too.

I’ve chosen. Now it’s your turn to choose.

The story goes that some time ago a mother punished her five year old daughter for wasting a roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and she became even more upset when the child used the gold paper to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.

Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift box to her mother the next morning and then said, “This is for you, Momma.”

The mother was embarrassed by her earlier over reaction, but her anger flared again when she opened the box and found it was empty. She spoke to her daughter in a harsh manner.

“Don’t you know, young lady, when you give someone a present there’s supposed to be something inside the package?”
She had tears in her eyes and said, “Oh, Momma, it’s not empty! I blew kisses into it until it was full.”

The mother was crushed. She fell on her knees and put her arms around her little girl, and she begged her forgiveness for her thoughtless anger.

An accident took the life of the child only a short time later, and it is told that the mother kept that gold box by her bed for all the years of her life.

Whenever she was discouraged or faced difficult problems she would open the box and take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.

In a very real sense, each of us, as human beings, have been given a Golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and GOD. There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

You now have two choices:
1. Pass this on to your friends, or
2. Delete it and act like it didn’t touch your heart.

As you can see, I took choice No. 1. Friends are like angels who lift us to our feet, when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.

If you receive this more than once in return just know that your friends have also thought of you!

A holy man was having a
conversation with the Lord one day and said,
‘Lord, I would like to know what
Heaven and Hell are like.’

The Lord led the holy man to two doors.

He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in.

In the middle of the room was a large round table.

In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew,
which smelled delicious and made the holy man’s
mouth water.

The people sitting around the table were thin and

sickly. They appeared to be famished.

They were holding spoons with very long handl es
that were strapped to their arms

and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful.

But because the handle was longer than their arms,
they could not get the spoons back into their mouths.

The holy man shuddered at the sight of their

misery and suffering.

The Lord said, ‘You have seen Hell.’

They went to the next room and opened the door.
It was exactly the same as the first one.

There was the large round table with the large pot
of stew which made the holy man’ s mouth water.

The people were equipped wi th the same long-handled spoons,

but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The holy man said, ‘I don’t understand.’

‘It is simple,’ said the Lord.

‘It requires but one skill. You see they have learned
to feed each other, while the
greedy think only of themselves.’

When Jesus died on the cross, he was

thinking of you. It’s estimated 93% won’t forward
this.

If you are one of the 7%

who will, forward this with the title ‘7%’.

I’m in the 7%.

Remember that I will always share my spoon with you

Eleven people were hanging on a rope,

under a helicopter.

10 men and 1 woman.

The rope was not strong enough to carry them all,

so they decided that one had to leave,

because otherwise they were all going to fall.

They weren’t able to choose that person,

until the woman gave a very touching speech.

She said that she would voluntarily let go of the rope,

because, as a woman,

she was used to giving up everything

for her husband and kids or for men in general,

and was used to always making sacrifices

with little in return.

As soon as she finished her speech,

all the men started clapping . . . . . . .

Pfizer Corp. announced today that Viagra will soon be available in
liquid form, and will be marketed by Pepsi Cola as a power beverage
suitable for use as a mixer. It will now be possible for a man to
literally pour himself a stiff one. Obviously we can no longer call this
a soft drink, and it gives new meaning to the names of ‘cocktails’,
‘highballs’ and just a good old-fashioned ’stiff drink’.
Pepsi will market the new concoction by the name of: MOUNT & DO.

Thought for the day: There is more money being spent on breast implants
and Viagra today than on Alzheimer’s research. This means that by 2040,
there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge
erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.

If you don’t send this to five old friends right away there will be
five fewer people laughing in the world.

Thank you to my friends who already do this. (sending it to you to in case you want to forward to any of your contacts)

It’s a little harder in Yahoo … send it to yourself and then put the rest of the recipients in the BCC section. That way you are not sharing the email addresses of people who don’t want theirs shared.
