The Seven Wonders


Recommended Posts

A group of students 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. Egypt's Great Pyramids

2. Taj Mahal

3. Grand Canyon

4. Panama Canal

5. Empire State Building

6. St. Peter's Basilica

7. China's Great Wall

While gathering the votes, the teacher noted that one quiet student hadn't turned in her paper yet. So she asked the girl if she was having trouble with her list. The girl replied, "Yes, a little. I couldn't quite make up my mind because there were 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. and to love.

The room was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. The things we overlook as simple, ordinary & take for granted are truly wondrous! We know the architects of the seven wonders of the world and admire them too....but how about the architect who has designed not just seven but millions of wonders in the world? How about the creator of the Universe? That architect whose wonders no one can count or copy?

A gentle reminder of the most precious things in life! Don't forget Waheguru who granted them to all of us!

Tum Bad Daatay Day Rahay,

You are the Great Giver; You continue to give,

Jeea Praan Meh Rav Rahay,

You permeate and pervade my soul, and my breath of life,

Deenay Saglay Bhojan Khaan,

You have given me all sorts of food and dishes,

Mohi Nirgun Ik Gun Na Jaan ll1ll

I am unworthy; I know none of Your virtues at all ll1ll
