And this:The following was written by 12 year old Esther Barnes:
When One is Tickled – One is Loved
People always wonder why they cannot tickle themselves, but someone else can tickle them.
The reason is if we could tickle ourselves we would not feel loved. We would just feel lonely.
When a loved one tickles us we feel loved, and not lonely.
We all love to have someone love us, and to tickle one another, and to giggle and talk to one another.
God made it so we could not tickle ourselves so that a loved one could tickle us and make us feel loved.
Don’t try tickle yourself. It doesn’t work. Have a loved one tickle you so you can feel loved.
I asked God to take away my habit.
God said, "No. It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up."
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.
God said, "No. His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary."
I asked God to grant me patience.
God said, "No. Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned."
I asked God to give me happiness.
God said, "No. I give you blessings; Happiness is up to you."
I asked God to spare me pain.
God said, "No. Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me."
I asked God to make my spirit grow.
God said, "No. You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful."
I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life.
God said, "No. I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things."
I ask God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.
God said ... "Ah, finally you have the idea."
THIS DAY IS YOURS DON'T THROW IT AWAY
May God Bless You,
"To the world you might be one person, but to one person you just might be the world"
