Saying Grace
Jeg synes det var litt fint, so here goes:
Last week I took my children to a
restaurant. My six-year-old son asked if he could say grace. As we bowed
our heads he said, "God is good. God is great. Thank you for the food, and
I would even thank you more if Mom gets us ice cream for dessert. And
Liberty and justice for all! Amen!"
Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby I
heard a woman remark, "That's what's wrong with this country. Kids today
don't even know how to pray. Asking God for ice-cream! Why, I never!
Hearing this, my son burst into tears and asked me, "Did I do it wrong? Is God mad at me?" As I held him and assured him that he had
done a terrific job and God was certainly not mad at him, an elderly
gentleman approached the table.
He winked at my son and said, "I happen to know that God
thought that was a great prayer."
"Really?" my son asked.
"Cross my heart," the man replied.
Then in a theatrical whisper he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole thing), "Too bad she never asks God for ice cream. A little ice cream is good for the soul sometimes."
Naturally, I bought my kids ice cream at the end of the
meal. My son stared at his for a moment and then did something I will
remember the rest of my life. He picked up his sundae and without a word,
walked over and placed it in front of the woman. With a big smile he told
her, "Here, this is for you. Ice cream is good for the soul sometimes; and
my soul is good already."

hehe.. *smelte litt* Greit, den var søt, da. Men i det siste har jeg blitt så negativ til alt. Altfor realistisk. Før var jeg den mest urealistiske og naive og romantiske jeg ahr møtt, men folk har ødelagt den jentepust.. *sukk* Tar imot den iskremen, jeg. Men jeg hater fortsatt superintelligente barn som sier så jævli fornuftige ting på filmer.

jo, er enig med det der. på flimer blir det alltid så ..mushy. men barn kan jo faktisk finne på å si sånne lure ting i virkeligheten også. bare ikke alle som legger merke til det... i hvert fall ikke barna selv.
realisme kan ødelegge deg, pass deg for realismen! realisme er et steg unna kynisme. kynisme vil gjøre jentepust til dårligånde. ikke la dem ødelegge!
det er de som tar feil.
Det er naivt at tro
at dette liv
kan leves hvis man ikke
er naiv.
