(276) the best poem in the world...
I was shocked, confused, bewildered
as I entered Heaven's door,
Not by the beauty of it all,
by the lights or its decor.
But it was the folks in Heaven
who made me sputter and gasp...
the thieves, the liars, the sinners,
the alcoholics, the trash.
There stood the kid from seventh grade
who swiped my lunch money twice.
Next to him was my old neighbour
who never said anything nice.
Herb, who I always thought
was rotting away in hell,
was sitting pretty on cloud nine,
looking incredibly well.
I nudged Jesus, "What's the deal?
I would love to hear Your take.
How'd all these sinners get up here?
God must've made a mistake.
And why's everyone so quiet,
so sombre? Give me a clue."
"Hush, child," said He "They're all in shock.
No one thought they'd see you."
Judge NOT.

(275) forgive & forget?
He's the talk of the town... the supposedly role-model who gave life lessons via his movies. Many expressed disbelief when it was made known that he is a Christian. Forgiving such indiscretions and for hurting his family is not easy. He is damn lucky his magnanimous wife has forgiven him.... or has she??
Ephesians 4:32 tells us to forgive each other as quickly as God forgave us.
Romans 12:17-18 tells us not to seek revenge, to do what is right and to live at peace with everyone as far as it is possible.
John 18:15-18, 25-27 & 21:15-19 Jesus forgave Peter, even after he denied knowing Jesus three times.
Luke 23:34 Jesus didn’t need someone to ask for forgiveness before He forgave. While He was on the cross, He forgave those who crucified Him.

(273) distress? destress?
Dealing with stress in life:
1. Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.
2. Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.
3. Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won't have a leg to stand on.
4. If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
5. When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.
6. We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names and all are different colours, but they all have to live in the same box.
