My friend Skip sent me these very cute short stories.

{1}

Once all the villagers decided to pray for rain.

On the day of prayer all the people gathered,

but only one boy came with an umbrella.

That’s FAITH

{2}
When you throw a baby in the air,

she laughs because she knows you will catch her.


That’s TRUST

 

{3}
Every night we go to bed,

without any assurance of being alive the next morning

but still we set the alarms to wake up.


That’s HOPE

 


{4}

We plan big things for tomorrow

in spite of zero knowledge of the future.


That’s CONFIDENCE

 

 

{5}
We see the world suffering,

but still we get married and have children.

 

That’s LOVE

 

{6}
On an old man’s shirt was written a sentence

‘I am not 80 years old . . .

I am sweet 16 with 64 years experience.’

 

That’s ATTITUDE
