Script:

At the 7-Eleven Store

One night, while I was working in the 7-Eleven Store, I saw

an old woman walking as if each step were painful. She slowly

pushed open the glass door. The moment she entered, she

presented a sharp contrast to the store. The store had bright

lighting and neatly arranged shelves. On such a cold night, she

was wearing only an old dress, a thin sweater too small to button

and a pair of black slippers.

After walking around the aisle for several minutes, the old

woman stopped in front of the rows of canned vegetables. She

picked up a can of corn and looked at the label. I decided to be

a good employee and asked her if she needed help. As I stood

close to her, my smile became harder to maintain. Her hands

were covered with layer upon layer of dirt, and the smell of sweat

rose from her clothes.

“Can I help you?” I asked brightly.

“I need some food,” she muttered.

“Are you looking for corn, madam?”

“I need some food,” she repeated. “Any kind.”

“Well, the corn is ninety-five cents,” I said in my most

helpful voice.

“I can’t pay,” she said.

For a second, I was tempted to say, “Take the corn.” But the

employee rules said, “Remain polite, but do not let customers

get the best of you”. For a moment, I even believed that this

woman was someone from the head office testing my loyalt y. I

replied, “I’m sorry, ma’am, but I can’t give away anything

for free.”

The old woman’s hands trembled as she put the can back

on the shelf. She hobbled past me toward the door. Her torn and

dirty clothing barely covered her bent back.

For the rest of my shift, the image of the woman stayed in

my mind. I was young and healthy, while she was old and sick. I

wished with all my heart that I had acted like a human being

rather than a robot.

An Invitation

A woman saw three old men sitting in her front yard. She

said, “I don’t think I know you, but you must b e hungry. Please

come in and have something to eat.”

“We do not go into a house together,” they replied.

“Why is that?” she wanted to know.

One of the old men explained: “His name is Wealth, this is

Success, and I am Love.” Then he added, “Now go in and

discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your

home.”Then the woman went in and told her husband what was

said. Her husband said, “Let’s invite Wealth. Let him come and

fill our home with wealth.” His wife disagreed, “My dear, why

don’t we inv ite Success?” Then the daughter made a

suggestion: “Wouldn’t it be better to invite Love? Our home

will then be filled with love.” “Let’s take our daughter’s

advice,” said the father.

So the woman went out and asked, “Which one of you is

Love? Please come in and be our guest.” Love got up and started

walking toward the house. The other two also got up and

followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: “I

only invited Love. Why are you coming in?”

The old men replied together: “If you had invit ed Wealth

or Success, the other two of us would have stayed out, but since

you invited Love, wherever HE goes, we go with him. Wherever

there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success.”

A Reason, a Season and a Lifetime

We meet thousands of people in our life. Some come into

our life for a reason, some for a season, and some for a lifetime.

When you figure out which it is, you will know exactly what to do.

When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to

meet a need you have expressed inwardly or outwardly. They

have come to help you out of a difficulty, or to provide you with

guidance and support.

Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at a certain

time, this person will say or do something to bring the

relationship to an end. Sometimes they die; sometimes they just

walk away; and sometimes they force you to do something that

you do not like.

When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is time for

you to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an experience

of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you

have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount

of joy, but only for a season. LIFETIME friendships are based on

trust and understanding between you and your friend. Together,

you have gone through good times as well as bad times. Lifetime

friendships teach you lifetime lessons. And your job is to accept

the lessons and love the people who teach you how to be good.

So, what is a lifetime friend? It is a single soul in two bodies.

Script:

Jogging

These days it is not easy to find the time to exercise.

Nonetheless, doing exercise regularly can help you live a

healthier and happier life. Jogging is a great way to get at least

part of the exercise your body needs, and most healthy

individuals are capable of jogging without the need to buy

special exercise equipment.

There are a few jogging tips to keep in mind if you plan to

take advantage of these benefits. The

first tip is that running should ideally be an aerobic exercise.

Starting off, you should find a pace at which you can jog for about

half an hour. Try to keep this pace each time you jog until you

have worked your way up to a full hour. Then, if you still want to

keep building endurance, begin to increase your pace. Always be

careful not to push yourself too hard; doing so can be dangerous,

especially if you are jogging alone.

Once you have gained enough strength and endurance and

started to consider increasing your pace, however, you should

consider other options first. Anyone who knows great jogging

tips can tell you that jogging, though great exercise, is not always

good to your knees. Consider jogging on a route that takes you

up more hills if you are looking for a more intense workout.

Running downhill is actually worse for your knees than running

on a flat surface.

In addition, it is important to be hydrated when you jog, but

you should not have a stomach full of water. Wait at least thirty

minutes after drinking any fluids or eating to start jogging. Also

be careful jogging in extreme heat or cold. If it is hot, drink extra

water and stop to rest if you feel faint. If it is cold, make sure your

hands and feet are protected and try to breathe through your

nose as much as possible to warm your breath before it reaches

your lungs. Jogging can be a great form of exercise, but you

should always do it safely.

2) There are TWO processes to prevent new HIV infections:

one is to give people information about HIV and the other is to

teach people how to put this information to use and act on it

practically.

3) HIV positive people need to get medical services and drug

supplies. And they also need to find appropriate emotional and

practical support and help.

4) Many people fear those who are HIV-positive. Some

extreme cases can be found in India, where AIDS patients were

burned to death_.

Script:

AIDS Education

Each year there are more and more new HIV infections. This

shows that people either aren’t learning the message about the

dangers of HIV, or are unable or unwilling to act on it. Many

people are dangerously ignorant about the virus. A survey in the

UK found recently that a third of teenagers thought there was a

“cure” for AIDS. So education is important in preventing the

spread of HIV.

There are three main reasons for AIDS education, the first of

which is to prevent new infections from taking place. This actually

consists of two processes: first, giving people information about

HIV — what HIV and AIDS are, how they are transmitted, and how

people can protect themselves from infections; then teaching

people how to put this information to use and act on it practically.

A second reason is to improve the quality of life for HIV-positive people. Too often, AIDS education is only aimed at how

to curb the HIV infection. But the needs of HIV-positive people

are often neglected. HIV-positive people have varying needs, but

among them are the need to be able to get medical services and

drug supplies and the need to be able to find appropriate

emotional and practical support and help.

The third reason is to reduce fear. In many countries there is

a great deal of fear of people who are HIV-positive. In some

extreme cases in India, AIDS patients were burned to death. Fear

can only help AIDS to spread. You see, if people are fearful of

being tested for HIV, then they are more likely to pass the

infection to someone else without knowing it. So AIDS education

benefits both AIDS patients and the rest of the community.

required reading.

Finally, how do you find course providers? The best approach

search engines such words as “online learning” and “distance

education” and you can easily get what you want. Before you
