Life Without Black People
.
A very humorous and revealing story is told about a group of white people who were fed up with African Americans, so they joined together and wished themselves away. They passed through a deep dark tunnel and emerged in sort of a twilight zone where there is an America without black people.
.
At first these white people breathed a sigh of relief.
.
‘At last’, they said, ‘no more crime, drugs, violence and welfare.’
. All of the blacks have gone! Then suddenly, reality set in. The ‘NEW AMERICA’ is not America at all - only a barren land. Read More

Let Go
=======
.
One day while climbing towards a high cliff a man slipped and
fell over the edge.
.
Frantic - he grabbed at a branch jutting out from a tree and
yelled out,
.
“Oh, God, help me.”
.
He looked down while holding on tight and saw only jagged rocks.
.
Clutching even tighter to the branch he cried out again,
.
“God…Please help me.”
.
Suddenly he felt God’s presence and heard God ask,
.
“My son, what can I do for you?’
.
The man, somewhat relieved, answered,
.
“Please God, help me. Save me.”
.
God said quietly,
.
“Do you love me?
.
Do you trust me?
.
Do you believe in me?”
.
“Yes, yes, I love you. I trust you and I believe in you,”
the man shouted.
.
“Well, if indeed you love me, trust me, and believe in me,
.
LET GO.”
.
With some hesitation and another look below at the jagged rocks,
the man asked,
.
“Is there anybody else up there I can talk to?”
.
We often seek other answers when our real answer can only come
when we “Let Go” of some things.
.
Though the above is an often-told joke, it is a true parable.
So often in counseling, I tell people the same thing.
.
“You have got to let go. That situation is killing you.
It is killing your peace, your finances, and your future.
.
You must let go!”
.
Often they will inwardly feel just as the hanging man asked,
.
“Is there anybody else that I can talk to, because I am afraid
to let go? I know the situation is killing me, that’s why I’m
here. I know that what I am holding on to is destined to die.
I know I cannot fully live while I remain embraced with it.
.
But I am soooo… afraid.
.
Afraid that I might fall if I let go.”
.
Like a person on drugs, you often must “come down” before you

Plato said that work should be play. Some airline employees have taken his injunction seriously. After landing, one flight attendant announced, “Thank you for flying Delta Business Express. We hope you enjoyed giving us the business as much as we enjoyed taking you for a ride.” There’s a flight attendant who knows how to turn her work into play.
She may have been the same one who, as the passengers disembarked from the aircraft, announced, “Last one off the plane must clean it.”
A British insurance agent has fun with the accident reports he reads from some of his clients. Like the one who wrote: “I started to slow down but the traffic was more
