Seven Wonders of the World
A group of Geography students studied the Seven Wonders of the
World.
At the end of that section,
the students were asked to list
what they
considered to be the Seven Wonders of the World.
Though there was some disagreement, the
following got 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, a quiet girl,
hadn't turned in her paper yet.
So she asked the girl if she was having trouble
with her list.
The quiet 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
touch |
| 2 |
|
to
taste |
| 3 |
|
to
see |
| 4 |
|
to
hear |
She hesitated a little, and then added
| 5 |
|
to
run |
| 6 |
|
to
laugh |
| 7 |
|
and
to love |
It is far too easy for us to look at the
exploits of man
and refer to them as ''wonders''
while we overlook all God has done,
regarding them as merely ''ordinary.
May you be reminded today of those things
which are truly wondrous.
