I think I need to extend that a bit to: I want some new dance shoes which I don't have give money in exchange for, cos I don't have any ... which leads me on to ...

I do not know how many people are on the forum, but it appears that only 12 people know how to ("ask for what they want"), it’s a sad thing that so many people will say in private they would really like or want something!
But when given the chance to ask openly they hide or are embarrassed <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com[IMG]http://www.cerocscotland.com/forum/ /><o:p></o:p></SPAN>

Me - I want World Peace, but, and here's the kicker, I want it through everyone freely chosing it, rather than it having to be imposed. A mass grave is not really what I have in mind.
Happy to try and help others while I'm waiting though,

Hi ghost,Originally Posted by Ghost
Just another objective comment, if one of us shares and ideal with only on person per day it would take 33 years to get that message to the whole world, less than a lifetime.
if we were to share that with three people and they were to each share it with three people every day for it would take 33 days to reach every liveing person on this planet.
Amazing thought realy, the power that each of us have.
Love and the Cabbie (from “Chicken Soup for the Soul”)Originally Posted by Raphael
I was in New York the other day and rode with a friend in a taxi. When we got out, my friend said to the driver, “Thank you for the ride. You did a superb job of driving”
The taxi driver was stunned for a moment. Then he said “Are you a wise guy or something?”
“No my dear man, and I’m not putting you on. I admire the way you keep your cool in heavy traffic.”
“Yeah,” the driver said and drive off.
“What was that all about?” I asked
“I’m trying to bring love back to New York,” he said. “I believe it’s the only thing that can save the city”
“How can one man save New York?”
“It’s not one man. I believe I have made that taxi driver’s day. Suppose he has 20 fares. He’s going to be nice to those 20 fares because someone was nice to him. Those fares in turn will be kinder to their employees or shop-keepers or waiters or even their own families. Eventually the goodwill could spread to at least 1000 people. Now that isn’t bad is it?”
“But you’re depending on that taxi driver to pass you goodwill onto others”
“I’m not depending on it,” my friend said. I’m aware that the system isn’t foolproof so I might deal with ten different people today. If out of the ten I can make three happy, then eventually I can influence the attitudes of 3000 more”
“It sounds good on paper,” I admitted, “but I’m not sure it work in practice”
“Nothing lost if it doesn’t. It didn’t take any of my time to tell that man he was doing a good job. He neither received a larger tip or a smaller tip. If it fell on deaf ears, so what? Tomorrow there will be another taxi driver I can try to make happy.”
“You’re some kind of nut” I said
“That shows how cynical you have become. I have made a study of this. The thing that seems to be lacking, besides money of course for our postal employees, is that no one tells people who work for the post office what a good job they’re doing.”
“But they’re not doing a good job”
“They’re not doing a good job because they feel no one cares if they do or not. Why shouldn’t someone say a kind word to them?”
We were walking past a structure in the process of being built and passed five workmen eating their lunch. My friend stopped. “That’s a magnificent job you men have done. It must be difficult and dangerous work.”
The workmen eyed my friend suspiciously
“When will it be finished?”
”June” a man grunted.
“Ah. That really is impressive. You must all be very proud.”
We walked away. I said to him. “I haven’t seen anyone like you since Man of La Mancha”
“When those men digest my words, they will feel better for it. Somehow the city will benefit from their happiness. “
”But you can’t do this all alone!” I protested “You’re just one man”
“The most important thing is not to get discouraged. Making people in the city become kind again is not an easy job, but if I can enlist other people in my campaign…”
“You just winked at that woman” I said
“Yes, I know,” he replied “And if she’s a schoolteacher, her class will be in for a fantastic day”
