This is an awesome story by Paul Harvey!!!

He was nine--- in a Sunday school class of eight year olds.
Eight year olds can be cruel.
The third graders did not welcome Phillip to their group.
Not just because he was older. He was "different."
He suffered from Down's syndrome, and it's obvious manifestations: facial characteristics, slow responses, symptoms of retardation.
One Sunday after Easter the Sunday school teacher gathered some of those plastic eggs that pull apart in the middle--- the kind in which some ladies' pantyhose are packaged. The Sunday school teacher gave one of these plastic eggs to each child.
On that beautiful spring day each child was to go outdoors and discover for himself some symbol of "new life" and place that symbolic seed or leaf or whatever inside his egg. They would then open their eggs one by one, and each youngster would explain how his find was a symbol of "new life."
So... The youngsters gathered round on the appointed day and put their eggs on a table, and the teacher began to open them. One child had found a flower. All the children "oohed" and "aahed" at the lovely symbol of new life. In another was a butterfly. " Beautiful," the girls said. And it's not easy for an eight year old to say "beautiful." Another egg was opened to reveal a rock. Some children laughed . "That's crazy!" one said. "How's a rock supposed to be like a 'new life'?" immediately a little boy spoke up and said, "That's mine. I knew everybody would get flowers and leaves and butterflies and all that stuff, so I got a rock to be different." Everyone laughed. The teacher opened the last one, and there was nothing inside. "That's not fair" someone said. "That's stupid," said another. Teacher felt a tug on his shirt. It was Phillip. Looking up he said, "It's mine. I did do it. It's empty. I have new life because the tomb is empty." The class fell silent.
From that day on Phillip became part of the group they welcomed him. Whatever had made him different was never mentioned again.
Phillip's family had known he would not live a long life; just too many things wrong with the tiny body. That summer, overcame with infection, Phillip died.
On the day of his funeral nine eight year old boys and girls confronted the reality of death and marched up to the altar--- not with flowers. Nine children with their Sunday school teacher placed on the casket of their friend their gift of love--- an empty egg.

Prayer

Many people tend to associate prayer with separation from others, but real prayer brings us closer to our fellow human beings. Prayer is the first and indespensable discipline of compassion precisely because is also the first expression of human solidarity.Why is this so? Because the Spirit who prays in us is the Spirit by whom all human beings are brought together in unity and community. Henry J.M. Nouwen

waaaahh!!!!

have you ever had a period in your life when at the same time everything feels like it's changing, but it's stagnant as well .... that's now for me... the last year really.... anyone who knows me knows that the last year had been crazy for me.... well lately things have been kind of weird... i feel kinda of like i've been forced to feel so much, that i can't handle emotions anymore.... i break down at the slightest pressure, cry over stupid things, lash out at people i love too much to hurt.... i know that i've been hard to deal with at times, and i want to say i'm sorry... i love you guys so much.... you know who you are...
