A priest in Florida was giving a sermon and had 10 apples lined up. He explained that each apple represented something that they should be thankful for. The first apple was to their health - being able to walk, see or touch. The second apple represented their friends, family members and all those who have touched their lives. When the priest came to the tenth apple he said, "And this is the one apple that God wants you to give back. He only wants you to give back 10% of what you have. But here is the problem."
He then began to eat the apple, as the church goers sat in a confused state. The priest then crunched the apple into the microphone for 2 minutes. He then put what was left of the apple, back on the shelf. The priest continued. "The problem is, most people only give back what they would normally throw away."
"We make a living by what we get. But we make a life by what we give."
Quote of the month: "While those hesitate because they feel inferior, others are busy making mistakes and becoming superior."
