Breakfast at
McDonald's
This
is a good story and is true, please read it all the way
through until
the end! (After the story, there are some
very interesting facts!):
I am a mother of three (ages
14, 12, 3) and have recently completed my
college
degree.
The last class I had to take was
Sociology.
The teacher was absolutely inspiring with
the qualities that I wish every
human being had been
graced with.
Her last project of the term was called,
'Smile.'
The class was asked to go out and smile at
three people and document their
reactions.
I am a
very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say
hello
anyway. So, I thought this would be a piece of cake,
literally.
Soon after we were assigned the project, my
husband, youngest son, and I
went out to McDonald's one
crisp March morning.
It was just our way of sharing
special playtime with our son.
We were standing in
line, waiting to be served, when all of a sudden
everyone
around us began to back away, and then even my husband
did.
I did not move an inch... an overwhelming feeling
of panic welled up inside
of me as I turned to see why
they had moved.
As I turned around I smelled a horrible
'dirty body' smell, and there
standing behind me were two
poor homeless men.
As I looked down at the short
gentleman, close to me, he was 'smiling'.
His
beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God's Light as he
searched for
acceptance.
He said, 'Good day' as he
counted the few coins he had been clutching.
The second
man fumbled with his hands as he stood behind his friend. I
realized the second man was mentally challenged and the
blue-eyed gentleman was his salvation.
I held my tears
as I stood there with them.
The young lady at the
counter asked him what they wanted.
He said, 'Coffee is
all Miss' because that was all they could afford. (If
they
wanted to sit in the restaurant and warm up, they had to buy
something. He just wanted to be warm).
Then I
really felt it - the compulsion was so great I almost reached
out
and embraced the little man with the blue
eyes.
That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant
were set on me, judging
my every action.
I smiled
and asked the young lady behind the counter to give me two
more
breakfast meals on a separate tray.
I then
walked around the corner to the table that the men had chosen
as a
resting spot. I put the tray on the table and laid my
hand on the blue-eyed
gentleman's cold hand.
He
looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, 'Thank
you.'
I leaned over, began to pat his hand and said, 'I
did not do this for you.
God is here working through me to
give you hope.'
I started to cry as I walked away to
join my husband and son. When I sat
down my husband smiled
at me and said, 'That is why God gave you to me,
Honey, to
give me hope.'
We held hands for a moment and at that
time, we knew that only because of
the Grace that we had
been given were we able to give.
We are not church
goers, but we are believers.
That day showed me the
pure Light of God's sweet love.
I returned to college,
on the last evening of class, with this story in
hand.
I turned in 'my project' and the instructor
read it.
Then she looked up at me and said, 'Can I
share this?'
I slowly nodded as she got the attention
of the class.
She began to read and that is when I knew
that we as human beings and being part of God share this need
to heal people and to be healed.
In my own way I had
touched the people at McDonald's, my son, instructor,
and
every soul that shared the classroom on the last night I spent
as a college student.
I graduated with one of the
biggest lessons I would ever
learn:
UNCONDITIONAL
ACCEPTANCE.
Much
love and compassion is sent to each and every person who may
read this and learn how to
LOVE
PEOPLE AND USE THINGS - NOT LOVE THINGS AND USE PEOPLE.
There
is an Angel sent to watch over you.
In order for her to
work, you must pass this on to the people you want
watched
over.
An
Angel wrote:
Many people will walk in and out of your life, but
only true friends will
leave footprints in your
heart.
To handle yourself, use your head.
To
handle others, use your heart.
God Gives every bird
it's food, but He does not throw it into its nest.

for everyone |
No person is worth your tears, and the only one is won't make you cry.. 
One day I asked God a bunch of beautiful flowers,
but instead, He gave me a cactus with thorns.
Later, I asked Him to give me butterflies,
but, instead He gave me worms.
Iwas disappointed and I wept.
But, few days after, I have noticed that the cactus bloomed with beautiful flowers, and the worms soon became butterflies.
*God wants us to wait for the right time, for He knows all the best that He can give!..
*God sometimes gives us difficult tasks and problems because He knows that we can make it.
*He will not give us trials that we cannot solve we just have to trust him and have faith in him..

Looking in your eyes, i see a paradise
This world that i found is too good to be true
Standing here beside you
Want so much to give you this love in my heart
That i'm feeling for you.
Let them say we're crazy
Don't care about that
Baby round in my hand, baby, don't ever look back
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby, we can make it if we`re heart to heart
And we can build this dream together,
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers
We'll still have each other
Nothing's gonna stop us,
nothing's gonna stop us now ooh ohh
I'm so glad i found you,
I'm not gonna lose you
Whatever it takes i will stay here with you
Take it to the good times,
See it through the bad times
Whatever it takes is what i'm gonna do
Let them say we're crazy
What do they know?
Put your arms around me, baby, don't ever let go
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby, we can make it if we`re heart to heart
And we can build this dream together,
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers
We'll still have each other
Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us..
Oohh. all that i need is you
All that i ever need.
And all that i want to do is hold you forever, forever and ever..
And we can build this dream together,
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers
We'll still have each other
Nothing's gonna stop us, nothing's gonna stop us........
oohh wooohh
Nothing's gonna stop us...now
Hey baby...
And we can build this dream together,
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers
We'll still have each other
Nothings gonna stop us
Nothings gonna stop us now..

I just can't understand the ways
Of all the men and their mistakes.
You give them all your heart, and then they rip it all away...
You told me how much you loved me
And how our love was meant to be.
And i believed in you, i thought that you would set me free...
(chorus)
You should've just told me the truth
That i wasn't the girl for you...
Still i didn't have a clue
So my heart depended on you...
Whoah
Alt hough i'll say 'i hate u' now
Although i'll shout and curse you out...
I'll always have love for you
Because i am a girl
(*)
Been told a man will leave you cold
Get sick of you and bored...
I know that it's no lie
I gave my all still i just cry
Never again will i be fooled, to give my all
When nothing's true...
I won't be played again, but i will fall in love again...
(chorus)
You should've just told me the truth
That i wasn't the girl for you...
Still i didn't have a clue
So my heart depended on you...
Whoah
Alt hough i'll say 'i hate u' now
Although i'll shout and curse you out...
I'll always have love for you
Because i am a girl
I loved u so... now u leave me in the cold
How could this be, i thought that u'd only love me...
Into the night, i will pray that you're alright
You hurt me so
I can't let u go
(bridge)
You took advantage of my willingness to do anything for love
Now i'm the only one in pain... will you please take it all away
~ Oh~
(chorus)
Nev er thought born being a girl
How i can love you and be burned...
And now i will build a wall, to never get torn again
Although i'll say 'i hate u' now
Although i'll shout and curse you out...
I'll always have love for you
Because i am a girl
Although i'll say 'i hate u' now
Although i'll shout and curse you out...
I'll always have love for you
Because i am a girl

Lying here with you Listening to the rain Smiling just to see the smile upon your face These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive These are the moments I'll remember all my life I found all I've waited for And I could not ask for more Looking in your eyes Seeing all I need Everything you are is everything to me These are the moments I know heaven must exist These are the moments I know all I need is this I have all I've waited for And I could not ask for more Chorus I could not ask for more than this time together I could not ask for more than this time with you Every prayer has been answered Every dream I have's come true And right here in this moment is right where I'm meant to be Here with you here with me These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive These are the moments I'll remember all my life I've got all I've waited for And I could not ask for more Chorus I could not ask for more than the love you give me 'Coz it's all I've waited for And I could not ask for more I could not ask for more
