Walking through a rough part of the city one night, two social workers heard moans and groans and muted cries for help coming from an alley. Walking toward the sound, they found a semi-conscious man.
"Help me!" he said weakly. "I've been mugged and viciously beaten!"
The two social workers stared at him for a moment then walked back out of the alley.
One turned to the other and said, "You know, the person who did that really could use some help!"
"You still haven't met all the people who are going to love you."
- from the song of the same title by David Peralta De La Luz
+ It's a good thing you came in today. It's the last one we have.
+ You made it yourself? I would have never guessed.
+ Go ahead and tell me, I won't tell another soul.
+ It's delicious but I can't eat another bite.
+ The doctor will call you right back.
+ You don't look a day over 50.
I cannot do all the good that the world needs. But the world needs all the good that I can do.
- Jana Stanfield
When Sara was 6, her new puppy became seriously ill, and the vet didn't know if he could save it.
I felt very bad for Sara, because this was her first pet and it had been a Christmas gift, so I said to her, "Don't worry, Honey. Just remember, if Fluffy dies, we'll see her in heaven."
Sara looked at me as if I were simple-minded and said, "Well, yes, Daddy, but heaven's a long way off for me. I'm only six."
