7 WONDERS OF WORLD


                 A group of students was asked to list what they thought were the present Seven Wonders of the World. Though there was some disagreement, the following got the most votes,

  1. Taj Mahal
  2. Egypt's Great Pyramids
  3. China's Great Wall
  4. Eiffel Tower
  5. Empire State Building
  6. Panoma Canal
  7. St.Peter Basilica.      
While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one quiet student hadn't turned in her paper yet. So 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 me what you have, and maybe we can help"

The girl hesitated, then read, 

" I think the Seven Wonders of the World are :-
  1.  To touch
  2. To taste
  3. To ask
  4. To hear
  5. To feel 
  6. To laugh
  7. And to love.
"Simple and Ordinary things of our life are the Real Wonders". 

A gentle reminder that the most precious things are before you;
Your Family, Your Faith, Your Love, Your good health and Your Friends.
