'Gold Wrapping Paper'

I received this from a friend who had a choice to make. It said that I had a choice to make too.

I've chosen. Now it's your turn to choose. The story goes that some time ago a mother punished her five-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and she became even more upset when the child used the gold paper to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.

Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift box to her mother the next morning and then said, this is for you, Momma.' The mother was embarrassed by her earlier over reaction, but her anger flared again when she opened the box and found it was empty. She spoke to her daughter in a harsh manner.” Don’t you know, young lady, when you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside the package?'

She had tears in her eyes and said, 'Oh, Momma, it's not empty! I blew kisses into it until it was full.' The mother was crushed. She fell on her knees and put her arms around her little girl, and she begged her forgiveness for her thoughtless anger.

An accident took the life of the child only a short time later, and it is told that the mother kept that gold box by her bed for all the years of her life.

Whenever she was discouraged or faced difficult problems she would open the box and take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there. In a very real sense, each of us, as human beings, have been given a g olden box unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and GOD. There is no more precious possession anyone could hold. You now have two choices:

1. Pass this on to your friends, or

2. Delete it and act like it didn't touch your heart.

As you can see, I took choice No. 1. Friends are like angels who lift us to our feet, when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.

If you receive this more than once in return just know that your friends have also thought of you.

It's the first song. It's a rap version of John Lennon's "Immagine". It's great and has a message for us.

It seems like my boyfriend's sex drive lately isn't so great.. It always has been, but lately it hasn't. He doesn't want oral as much, sex, not masturbating as often.. I know its not something I did, because we've always had great sex.. and he stills loves sex once or twice a week.. but it used to be everyday! Is this supposed to happen?

I got up early to come to the hospital to be with my mom, and I spilled my [delicious] coffee all over my car hood. Then I just got coffee at the cafe downstairs, and I swear to heaven above that it tastes like menthol. Yuck. I can't believe I paid .85 cents for this crap! Blech.

So my question: Don't you hate bad tasting coffee?

I am babysitting 2 little boys for the... third time in a row. They really like me as a babysitter.

The first time we played with TNT Pop-its and we colored.
The second time we made snowflakes.

Now I don't know what to do.
You guys have been so great in the past and I love your advice---I NEED IT AGAIN!

What do YOU think? I am not sure if I have enough time to cook something--but I might.

I have a few hours.
The boys are 4 and 6. I think.
Should I do Christmas crafts?
Color Christmas stuff?
Do something Christmassy?
They go to bed @ 7:00pm, and I have less than an hour to spend with them. About 45 min.

Please help!

the definition of music is: an art of sound in time that expresses ideas and emotions in significant forms through the elements of rhythm, melody, harmony, and color. by that standard rap is missing 2, possibly 3 of the key ingredients of being considered music. i am not saying all rap sucks and takes no talent. i am saying that rap is a form of poetry with beat and rhythm and shouldn't be held in the position with rock, jazz, blues, etc. I am not an advocate for "rock" as it may seem, but i am an advocate for good music and today's state of music is horrible. so what i am asking is this- is rap music or catchy poetry and why does modern music pale in comparison to other decades? i dont want you to defend your opinion on how rap is god, i want you to justify
