How much do we notice as we go through a day????? Lisa Beamer, wife of "Let it Roll" hero 911

FROM OUR FELLOW PRAYER WARRIOR MARIAN IN BOISE....WORTH SHARING.  xoxo

Lisa  Beamer on Good Morning America - If you remember, she's the wife of
Todd Beamer  who said 'Let's Roll!' and helped take down the plane over
Pennsylvania that was  Heading for Washington , DC back on 9/11.

She said it's the little  things that she misses most about Todd, such as
hearing the garage door open as  he came home, and her children running to
meet him.

Lisa recalled  this story: "I had a very special teacher in high school
many years ago whose  husband died suddenly of a heart attack. About a week
after his death, she  shared some of her Insight with a classroom of students.
As the late afternoon  sunlight came streaming in through the classroom
windows and the class was  nearly over, she moved a few things aside on the edge
of her desk and sat down  there.

With a gentle look of reflection on her face, she paused and  said, 'Class
is over, I would like to share with all of you, a thought that is  unrelated
to class, but which I feel Is very important. Each of us is put here  on
earth to learn, share, love, appreciate and give of ourselves. None of us
knows when this fantastic experience will end. It can be taken away at any
moment.

Perhaps this is God's way of telling us that we must make  the most out of
every single day. Her eyes, beginning to water, she went on,  'So I would like you all To make me a promise, from now on, on your way to  school, or on your way home, find
something beautiful to notice.

It  doesn't have to be something you see, it could be a scent, perhaps of
freshly  baked bread wafting out of someone's house, or it could be the sound
of the  breeze slightly rustling the leaves in the trees, or the
way the morning  light catches one autumn leaf as it falls gently to the
ground. Please look for  these things, and cherish them. For, although it may
sound trite to some, these  things are the "stuff" of life.

The little things we are put here  on earth to enjoy. The things we often
take for granted.

The class  was completely quiet. We all picked up our books and filed out
of the room  silently. That afternoon, I noticed more things on my way home
from school than  I had that whole semester. Every once in a while, I think
of that teacher and  remember what an impression she made on all of us, and I
try to appreciate all  of those things that sometimes we all overlook.

Take notice of  something special you see on your lunch Hour today. Go
barefoot. Or walk on the  beach at sunset. Stop off on the way home tonight to
get a double dip ice cream  cone. For as we get older, it is not the things
we did that we often regret, but  the things we didn't do.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!
GOD Bless you every day of your  life.
The nicest place to be is in someone's thoughts
The  safest place to be is in someone's prayers,
And the very best place to  be is....
In the hands of God
