The Wonders of Giving Thanks

Greetings:

I love this time of year, the weather is changing and I just can't help but feel Thankful for all that I have been blessed with. I received a great newsletter today, Monday Morning Coffee with Cookie from Cookie Tuminello, a long time member of 365 Days of Coaching, a dear friend and an amazing business woman. This story really touched my heart. How often do we overlook the simple wonders of life!

Wonders of the World

A group of students were asked to list what they thought were the present "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. 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 because there were so many."

The teacher said, "Well, tell us what you have, and maybe we can help."

The girl hesitated, then read, "I think the "Seven Wonders of the World" are:

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 quite you could have heard a pin drop. The things we overlook as simple and ordinary and that we take for granted are truly wondrous!

A gentle reminder - that the most precious things in life cannot be built by hand or bought by man.
