A man named Mr. Smith was flying from San Francisco to Los Angeles on a private plane. Unexpectedly the plane stopped in Sacramento along the way. The pilot explained that there would be a delay, and if the passengers wanted to get off the aircraft, the plane would re-board in 30 minutes. Everybody got off the plane except one gentleman who was blind.
REMEMBER !

Mr. Smith had noticed him as he walked by and could tell the blind man had flown before because his Seeing Eye dog lay quietly underneath the seats in front of him throughout the entire flight. Mr. Smith could also tell he had flown this very flight before because the pilot approached him, and calling him by name, said " Keith, we're in Sacramento for almost an hour. Would you like to get off and stretch your legs ? " Keith replied, " No thanks, but maybe the dog would like to stretch his legs. "
REMEMBER !

Now picture this : All the people in the gate area came to a complete quiet standstill when they looked up and saw the pilot walk off the plane with the Seeing Eye dog ! The pilot was even wearing sunglasses. People scattered. They not only tried to change planes, they were trying to change airlines !
REMEMBER !

This is your pilot speaking : This is your last call to board the airplane bound for Los Angeles !
HAVE A GREAT DAY !
REMEMBER !

REMEMBER !
Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they appear.  If you have faith, you just need to trust that every outcome is always to  your advantage.  You might not know it until some time  later........but
REMEMBER !

             

" GOSSIP "

Is Like a Hammer,
Always pounding away at its victim !

STREET
GOSSIP !

REMEMBER !

A woman repeated a bit of gossip about a neighbor.

Within a few days the whole community knew the story.
The person it concerned was deeply hurt and offended.
Later, the woman responsible for spreading the rumor learned
that it was completely untrue. She was very sorry and went to a
wise old sage to find out what she could do to repair the damage.

" Go to the marketplace, " he said, " and purchase a chicken, and
have it killed. Then on your way home, pluck its feathers and
drop them one by one along the road. " Although surprised by
this advice, the woman did what she was told.

The next day the wise man said, " Now, go and collect all those
feathers you dropped yesterday and bring them back to me. "

The woman followed the same road, but to her dismay the wind had
blown all the feathers away. After searching for hours, she
returned with only three feathers in her hand.

" You see, " said the old sage, " It's easy to drop them, but it is
impossible to get them back.

So it is with gossip.

It doesn't take much to spread a rumor, but once you do you can
never completely undo the wrong. " >

CHURCH
GOSSIP !

REMEMBER !

Sarah, the church gossip and self-appointed supervisor of the church's morals, kept sticking her nose into other people's business. Several residents were unappreciative of her activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence.

She made a mistake, however, when she accused George, the new member, of being an alcoholic after she saw his pickup truck parked in front of the town's only bar one afternoon.

She commented to George and others that everyone seeing it there would know that he was an alcoholic. George, a man of few words, stared at her for a moment and just walked away. He said nothing.

Later that evening, George, quietly parked his pickup in front of Sarah's house...............

REMEMBER !
AND he left it there all night.............
