Hi guys, one day I came across an article (or a story) which I think is nice. A teacher in a third year elementary class asked the children to list 5 of the world wonder or what they think should be on the world wonder. After everyone submit their answer, there are many answers ranging from the original wonder of the world, to many things. But this is one little girl answer : Wonder of the World : 1. to see 2. to feel 3. to smell 4. to love 5. to cry This answer really touch me, and it does makes me thinks. Sometimes people are so eager to travel and see the wonder of the world. Sometimes people try to outdo each others in doing things or building marvelous things, but sometimes we do forget that the real wonder of our lives is what we usually takes for granted. Whats the use of a beautiful Great Barrier Reef or the Grand Canyon if you cant see it ? If you cant feel the wind and water spray on your face? I think to be able to love is also a wonder, as not everyone is able to love properly. It is a wonder to be able to cry as well, as again, not many people are able to cry, really have a good cry and cleans out everything. So what do you think ?

Hi Ms dophin! This is a very inspiring story. It helps our fellow mylotters to realize that there are a lot of interesting things in this world. We don't need it to be expensive or far off to realize that there are a lot of things that we should thank for. Thank you so much of sharing this with us! :)
