The Christianville Spirit
The Spirit that touches Your Life
September 2, 2009-TCS # 163
So, This past Sunday, My Mom and I where watching church online like we always do and our Pastor was talking about Passion; Well, here’s a test how much passion people have today, someone did a study where they sent a someone to play a Violin in the middle a busy Washington DC METRO station to see what would happen. Well, after he started playing the violin it took 30 minutes for someone to stop only for a minute or two and then, they continued walking along their normal busy lives. A couple children turned their heads and wanted to stop and listen to this guy but, the parents pulled the children away so, that they could continue going. The sad thing is that very 30 or 45 minutes later, someone would stop for a second to listen and then move on to work or wherever they were going. Now, here is the most shocking part of this study, the violin player was the most famous violin player in the world and actually, he sold out seats at his concert the night before. So, what’s the point here? Well, it says that people these days are such in a hurry and don’t have a lot of passion that they don’t “Stop and smell the roses”. But, you know that if you did stop and smell the roses you would actually be very enlightened and even surprised at what you’ll find or see. So, all in all here don’t be one of those people who hurry on with your lives, stop and enjoy it. Talk to someone with Special Needs and see what enlightening things they tell you, drive through a small town on a US or State Highway/Route and see what amazing things you’ll find in that town, or literally stopping the smell roses, other flowers, or even trees. And, you’ll be surprised what you find or learn.
Thanks for reading The Christianville Spirit. Have passion to stop see things for what they are and you will be surprised, learn a lot, and be enlightened.
