When I Asked God for Strength
          He Gave Me Difficult Situations to Face

          When I Asked God for Brain & Brown
          He Gave Me Puzzles in Life to Solve

          When I Asked God for Happiness
          He Showed Me Some Unhappy People

          When I Asked God for Wealth
          He Showed Me How to Work Hard

          When I Asked God for Favors
          He Showed Me Opportunities to Work Hard

          When I Asked God for Peace
          He Showed Me How to Help Others

          God Gave Me Nothing I Wanted
          He Gave Me Everything I Needed

This is something we should all read at least once a week!!!!! Make sure you read to the end!!!!!! Written by Regina Brett, 90 years old, of the Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio . "To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more: 1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good. 2. When in doubt, just take the next small step. 3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. 4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch. 5. Pay off your credit cards every month. 6.

Some say there is no difference between "complete" and "finished".

And, when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are "completely finished".       His answer received a five minute standing ovation.

Subject: Prayers do nourish! Prayers do nourish! A 'devotee' wrote a letter to the editor of an Indian newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to the Temple. 'I've gone for 30 years now, he wrote, and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 mantras. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the Gurus are wasting theirs by giving services at all. This started a real controversy in the 'Letters to the Editor' column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher: "I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals. But I do know this... They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I woul...
