Apparently someone wasn't paying attention here because I came in to the following this morning:

I picked 9 people who I thought would DO this. Hope I chose the right nine. Please send this back to me (You'll see why). In case anyone is interested, Saint Theresa is known as the Saint of the Little Ways.
Meaning she believed in doing the little things in life well and with great love.

She is also the patron Saint of flower growers and florists. She is represented by roses. May everyone be blessed who receives this message.


Theresa's Prayer cannot be deleted. REMEMBER to make a wish before you
read the poem. That's all you have to do. There is nothing attached.
Just send this to 9 people and let me know what happens on the fourth
day. Sorry you have to forward the message, but try not to break this
please. Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive. There is no cost
but a lot of reward.



*Suggestion:* copy and paste rather than forward to protect email
addresses and access to e-virus. (Did you make a wish?) If you don't make a
wish, it won't come true. Last chance to make a wish.


St. Theresa's Prayer:


May today there be peace within.


May you trust your highest power that you are exactly where you are
meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born
of faith.

May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love
that has been given to you. May you be content knowing you are a child of
God.

Let his presence settle into our bones, and allow your soul the freedom
to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of
you.


Now, send this to 9 people within the next 5 minutes and your wish will
come true. And remember to send this back...I count as 1...you'll see
why

Admittedly, I can have my shameless moments of attention whoring (I've been known to IM or email people demanding that they "pay attention to me" - because, as we all know, my biggest pet peeve is being ignored), but I've never once even CONSIDERED resorting to the forwarded make-a-wish-and-prove-your-friendship poem of love.

And, seriously, people, if you believe down deep in your fuzzy rainbow and unicorn dotted heart that forwarding an email (that you didn't write and probably didn't even read) to 9 people in 5 minutes will make a wish come true, well... I don't really know what to say to you... other than SantaClausetheToothFairyandtheEasterBunnydon'texist
