JEANS, T-SHIRT, AND A BASEBALL CAP

A man wearing jeans, t-shirt and a baseball cap positioned himself against a wall beside a trash can at the L'ENFANT PLAZA, station in Washington, D.C. He pulled out a violin and began to play.
In the next 43 minutes, as he performed six classical pieces, 1,097 people passed by , ignoring him.

No one knew it, but the man playing outside the metro was JOSHUA BELL, one of the finest classical musicians in the world, playing some of the most elegant music ever written, on a 3.5 million stradivarius.
But no crowd gathered for the virtuoso. "It was a strange feeling, that people were actually.... ignoring me," said BELL.

How often do we ignore our friends, GOD, and family,
When they could enrich, enpower, and revolutionize our lives.
Look what we could be missing, BY NOT TAKING THE TIME !!!!!!!

 I think to really establish in your heart and character to stop and smell the roses, to hear a violin is a great thing to do with ones life....not to wait till your in your seventies which can be too late and rather sad.....GOD Bless Us all


‘HE will rule them with an iron scepter.’... He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.... On HIS robe and on HIS thigh HE has this name written:... KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS."

Well, wow..... what an interesting point. I too feel we place way to much importance on looks instead of inward beauty. GOD can make the most average women look stunningly beautiful !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY.
