A group of American school children were asked to list what they thought were the present "Seven Wonders of The World." Though there were some disagreements, the following received the most votes:

  1. Chichen Itza

  2. Taj Mahal

  3. Great Pyramid of Giza

  4. Machu Picchu

  5. The Colosseum

  6. St. Peter's Basilica

  7. Great Wall of China

While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one student had not finished her paper yet. So she asked the girl if she was having trouble with her list. The little girl replied, "Yes, a little. I couldn't quite make up my mind because there are so many." The teacher said, "Well, tell us what you have, and maybe we can help." The girl hesitated, then read, "I think the "Seven Wonders of The World" are:

  1. To see

  2. To hear

  3. To touch

  4. To taste

  5. To feel

  6. To laugh

  7. To love

The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. The things we overlook as simple and ordinary and that we take for granted are truly wondrous. A gentle reminder - that the most precious things in life cannot be built by hand or bought by man.
