A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to

visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into

complaints about stress in work & life.

 

Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen & returned

with a large pot of coffee & an assortment of cups made of Porcelain,

Plastic, Glass, Crystal, some ordinary looking, some expensive, some

exquisite.

 

He told them to help themselves to hot coffee. When all the students had

a cup of coffee in their hands, the professor said: "If you noticed, all

the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain

and cheap looking ones. While it is but normal for you to want only the

best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.

 

What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you

consciously went for the best cups and worse, you were eyeing each

other's cups.

 

Now if life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are

the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, but the quality

of Life doesn't change. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we

fail to enjoy the coffee in it."

 

So folks, don't let the cups drive you..., enjoy the coffee instead!!

Some people are kind, polite, and sweet-spirited - until you try to sit in their pews.

 

Many folks want to serve God, but only as advisers.

 

It is easier to preach ten sermons than it is to live one.

 

The good Lord didn't create anything without a purpose, but mosquitoes come close.

 

When you get to your wit's end, you'll find God lives there.

Pretty good. I do actually get a little ticked when people are sitting in "my pew" especially because it says "Reserved for parishoners with children" and they don't have any! "Move up you fool, there's plenty of room up front! Father Ed doesn't bite."

What if the expensive cups were bigger and I just wanted more coffee??

Yeah, but the dudes with the better cups went home with the hottest broads.
