While gathering the votes, the teacher noticed that one quiet student hadn’t returned 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 Smell
6. To Speak
7. To Feel,

The room became so quiet that one could have heard a pin drop as there are people in the world who do not have these abilities.

The things we overlook as simple and ordinary and which we take for granted are truly wondrous!
