Eye Opener



A teacher from Primary School asks her students to write an essay about what they would like God to do for them...

At the end of the day while marking the essays, she read one that made her very emotional.

Her husband, that had just walked in saw her crying and asked her: - What happened?

She answered - Read this. It's one of my student’s essays…

“Oh God, tonight I ask you something very special: Make me into a television. I want to take its place. Live like the TV in my house.

Have my own special place, and have my family around ME. To be taken seriously when I talk....

I want to be the centre of attention and be heard without interruptions or questions. I want to receive the same special care that the TV receives when it is not working. Have the company of my dad when he arrives home from work, even when he is tired.

And I want my mom to want me when she is sad and upset, instead of ignoring me... And...

I want my brothers to fight to be with me... I want to feel that family just leaves everything aside, every now and then, just to spend some time with me. And last but not least make it that I can make them all happy and entertain them...

Lord I don't ask you for much... I just want to live like every TV “ At that moment the husband said: - 'My God, poor kid. What horrible parents!

She looked up at him and said: - 'That essay is our son's!!!

The Little Gardener's Surprise

Once upon a time in a small town, there lived a little girl named Lily who had a magical garden. Lily loved spending her afternoons tending to her flowers, talking to the butterflies, and singing to the plants. One sunny day, as Lily watered her tulips, she noticed a tiny door nestled among the stems.  To her surprise, it swung open, revealing a world of miniature creatures living in harmony with her garden. There were ladybugs in polka-dot houses, fairies weaving dewdrop dresses, and even a wise old snail reading poetry to a cluster of mushrooms.   Lily was overjoyed to discover these magical friends and decided to organize a tiny garden party. She crafted daisy hats for the fairies and set up a banquet of sweet nectar for the butterflies. The ladybugs brought their musical instruments, and the snail recited his favorite poems.   As the sun dipped below the horizon, turning the sky into a canvas of warm hues, Lily and her newfound friends danced under the twin...

He met her on a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after her, while he so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised, but due to being polite, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was too nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, she thought, please, let me go home.... suddenly he asked the waiter. "would you please give me some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee." Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red, but still, he put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously; why you have this hobby? He replied: "when I was a little boy, I was living near the sea, I like playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea, just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living ther...

The Unlikely Friendship

In a quiet village nestled between rolling hills and babbling brooks, there lived a little cat named Moonbeam. Moonbeam had a coat as black as the midnight sky, but her eyes sparkled like the brightest stars. One starry night, while Moonbeam prowled through the alleys, she discovered a tiny creature with wings caught in a thicket.   The creature turned out to be Twinkle, a baby bat who had lost her way. Moonbeam, instead of pouncing, gently approached Twinkle and used her nimble paws to free the tiny bat. Twinkle, grateful and unafraid, looked at Moonbeam with eyes that held the wonder of the night sky.   From that night on, Moonbeam and Twinkle became the best of friends. Moonbeam would explore the rooftops, and Twinkle would soar alongside, leaving trails of stardust. Together, they discovered secret hideaways and shared stories under the moonlight.   Their friendship spread joy throughout the village, and soon the townsfolk eagerly awaited the nightly ad...
