One cold evening during the holiday season, a little boy about six or seven was standing out in front of a store window. The little child had no shoes on and his clothes were mere rags. A young woman passing by saw the little boy and could read the longing in his pale blue eyes. She took the child by the hand and led him into the store. There she bought him new shoes and a complete suit of warm clothing.
They came back outside into the street and the woman said to the child, "Now you can go home and have a very happy holiday." The little boy looked up at her and asked, "are you God, Ma'am?" She smiled down at him and replied, "No son, I'm just one of His children."
The little boy then said, "I knew you had to be some relation."
=============================================
AT YOUR SIDE When the daylight's gone and you're on your own And you need a friend, just to be around I will comfort you, I will take your hand, I will pull you through, I will understand.
I'll be at your side, There's no need to worry, Together we'll survive, Through the haste and hurry.
I'll be at your side, if you feel like you're alone, And you've nowhere to turn. If life's standing still, and your soul's confused, And you cannot find what road to choose,
If you make mistakes you can't let me down, I will still believe, I won't turn around

ALL BECAUSE YOU SMILED!
Sometimes you feel you want to cry And life seems such a trial... But above the clouds there's a bright blue sky To make your tears a smile.
As you travel along life's way With its many ups and downs, Remember that it's true to say One smile is worth a dozen frowns!
Happiness comes at times to all, But sadness comes unbidden... And sometimes a few tears must fall Among the laughter hidden.
So when your friends are feeling down And troubles round them piled... The world will seem a better place And all because YOU SMILED!

THE SMILE you catch it like the flu, When someone smiled at me today, I started smiling too.
I passed around the corner and someone saw my grin When he smiled I realised I'd passed it on to him .
I thought about that smile then I realised its worth, A single smile, just like mine, could travel round the earth.
So, if you feel a smile begin, don't leave it undetected Let's start an epidemic quick, and get the world infected!

A Child's Angel"
Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born.
The child asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth today, but how am I going to live there, being so small and helpless?"
God said, "My child, from all my many angels, I chose a special one just for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you."
The child said, "But God, here in heaven, I don't do anything else but sing and smile, and it makes me happy."
God said, "Your angel will sing for you and smile for you, and you will feel your angel's love, and that will make you happy."
The child said, "And how will I understand when people talk to me, if I don't know the language that men talk on Earth?"
God replied, "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak."
"And God," said the child, "What am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"
God said, "Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray, and I will hear you."
The child said, "I've heard that on earth there are bad people and many evil things. Who will protect me?"
"Your angel will defend you," said God, "Even if it means risking her life. You are more precious than anything to her."
The child said, "But I will always be sad, because I will not see you anymore."
God smiled and said, "Your angel will teach you the way for you to be good and come back to me, and through her you will know that I am always watching over you."
Then they heard voices calling from Earth, and the child knew it was time to go. "God," the child asked softly, "If I am about to leave now, could you please tell me my angel's name, so I will know her?"
And God said, "Your angel's real name is of no importance... You will call your angel: "Mommy"."
