HOW MUCH DOES A CUP OF HATRED COST

Image
Dear Friends Enjoy reading this forward  HOW MUCH DOES A CUP OF HATRED COST? ...By Gbile Akanni. I never knew it was that costly. I wanted to know the cost of HATRED, so I decided to branch to a shop where it's being sold.  As a good businessman who was looking for a buyer, the salesman rushed out to ask what I wanted. I told him I wanted just a cup of hatred, and then he smiled and asked if I can afford it. 'How much does a cup cost?' I asked him. Hmmmmm... He took in a deep breath, then started... It will first of all take away your inner peace. It will cost you incurable worries. It will eat up your heart. You will be deeply bitter whenever you set your eyes on the person you hate. When others are celebrating him or her, you will always be looking for why he or she doesn't deserve it. You will become so weak and tired of seeing the person. Whenever he or she laughs, you will cry. While others are busy planning their future, you will be busy looking for ho...

How to Motivate Children?

From a Teacher  Today I was running low on pencils so I asked all of my kids to pull out any of my pencils that they had in their desks.  I had one student ask me if he could keep his pencils that his mom gave him for school. Of course, I said yes. He then said, “well, I guess I’ll give you a few so my classmates can have them too.”  I thought nothing of it and took the pencils that he handed me.  When I was sharpening them, I noticed writing on a few of them.  I then realized that my student’s mother took the time to write on his pencils. I asked him if he would mind showing me the rest of them.  What I read melted my heart: - You are so talented. - This will be a great year. - You are creative. - You are phenomenal. - Never give up. - You can do this. - You are knowledgeable. - You are a math whiz. - You are intelligent. - Proud of you everyday. - I love you. - You have a brilliant mind. - You are wonderful. - You are a problem solver. - Follo...

Snake Charming

Image
Snake charming is the practice of appearing to hypnotize a snake (often a cobra) by playing and waving around an instrument called a pungi.  Although snakes are able to sense sound, they lack the outer ear therefore they cannot hear the music. They follow the pungi that the "snake charmer" holds with his hands. Ancient Egypt was home to one form of snake charming.  It eventually spread throughout Southeast Asia, India, the Middle East, and North Africa.   Snake charming is today dying out in our country. This is due to a variety of factors, chief among them is the enforcement of the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972 in India banning ownership of snakes. ❤️💕🌹🙌🙏
