These are just a "few" questions to think about. In no way do I expect anyone to answer all these; if you do, then cudos to you. Just some questions I saw somewhere and thought they were worth sharing:



If you had the opportunity to get a message across to a large group of people, what would your message be?



Have you done anything lately worth remembering?



Do you think crying is a sign of weakness of strength?



Would you break the law to save a loved one?



When you are old and gray, what will matter to you the most?



When was the last time you tried something new?



Which activities make you lose track of time?



What is the difference between living and existing?



What makes you smile?

1. Two things come to mind: (1)I've always wanted to be a preacher and spread the gospel but due to various reasons, wasn't able to (2) I'd like to gather everybody in Arkansas together and teach them how to drive!

2. I've met the most wonderful person in the world.

3. I guess it depends on the situation, crying could be a sign of strength or weakness; depends on how you look at it.

4. Again, depends on the situation, but probably so.

5. My relationship with Christ and the love of my family.

6. Friday I tried Mexican TV dinners for the first time. not too bad!

7. Talking on the telephone with Saved3 and doing my homework.

8. Living is doing the things that matter most with the people that matter the most. Existing is doing the mundane day to day normal activities of life.

9.Thinking about the morning my son was born and my future in California.

Talk to large group: A gospel message with exhortation to minister to orphans and widows

Done lately worth remembering? I visited a friend I had never met in the rehab center where he is learning to walk again

Crying - weakness or strength. Either or both, depending on situation

Break the law? Yes

What will matter most? If I can chew my own food and clean myself without help

Tried something new? Within the last month, yes

Lose track of time? Blogging, being on CDFF, reading

Living and existing? Make a difference in the people around you

Makes me smile? Too MANY to count! My great nephew Sean. My cat. My Sunday School kids. Nature. Gods love. Gods grace. My friends. Sunshine on water. Walking in the fresh air.

Are you writing a paper on all these responses, Charles? :laugh:

�If you had the opportunity to get a message across to a large group of people, what would your message be?�



Live every day as if it was your last day. Love everyone as if you were to never see them after today. Breath deeply of God�s Love and return it to those around you. Have no regrets and pray every day to you Father in Heaven.







�Have you done anything lately worth remembering?�



I have a son whom I am very proud of�a young man that one day will make some woman very happy. Also two dogs that are extremely polite and very brave. There are also some people walking around today

that I had the awesome privilege of being involved in their being alive. All these are in my past�lately, I just seem to be chilling.





�Do you think crying is a sign of weakness of strength?�



It takes a Strong Person to be able to cry without fear or concern of what others may think. So�I think it is a sign of Strength.





"Would you break the law to save a loved one?"



Short of Murder�Yes I would.







"When you are old and gray, what will matter to you the most?"



That I have tried my very best to do God�s Will. That I have Loved with all of My Heart. That I have Love still in my Life. That those that I Love are well and Safe.





"When was the last time you tried something new?"



I enjoy trying new things, but at my age there are few �new� things left.







"Which activities make you lose track of time?"



Reading�Painting�Playing Guitar�keeping track of time?







"What is the difference between living and existing?"



Everything that God made exists. Before God made them they did not exist, but everything that exists�does not necessarily Lives! Everything that is Alive exists, but not everything that exists is alive (lives). Another way of looking at it is�it�s not how long you live�how many years you may live, but rather How You Live those years.

There are some of us that will live long after they die! That is because of the way they Lived their Existence! The way you Live defines your existence.







"What makes you smile?"



A Smile makes me Smile. A Kiss makes me want to Kiss. A Laugh makes me Laugh. A young child�a puppy�an older couple holding hands. A young child holding a puppy. A puppy holding a young child. A puppy holding an older couple.

Dennis makes me smile! Now there is a man who knows how to Love all Creatures (especially cats).

the message of the cross/the Fathers love for them



Have you done anything lately worth remembering?

I always remember the things I've done when I have stepped out in faith to do them. Things that take courage. Taking a chance of making a fool of myself. Giving a word of knowledge to someone I've never seen before. Fighting with myself about going to pray for someone and when I do, that person gets touched by God.



Do you think crying is a sign of weakness of strength?

Depends...sometimes when I cry it's out of frustration for a situation or compassion for someone. The other times I cry is when God is doing something deep in my heart and the tears just flow from healing or my love for Him.

I dont think I can answer this question. To be weak in our self is to be strong in the Lord and He really likes that. I would rather be weak...anytime.

Hmmm...this is a trick question isnt it?



Would you break the law to save a loved one? YES I would



When you are old and gray, what will matter to you the most?

What I have done with what I've learned over a lifetime



When was the last time you tried something new?

I tried chicken marsala at Olive Garden recently, does that count? (BTW, I didnt like it)





Which activities make you lose track of time? when I'm praying or cooking :)



What is the difference between living and existing?

I'll come back to this one.





What makes you smile?

Animals make me smile...God makes me smile...my girls make me smile...my own bloopers make me smile
