The Mystery Cat!

Bus drivers have nicknamed a white cat "Macavity" after it has started using the No. 331 several mornings a week.

The feline, which has a purple collar, gets onto the busy Walsall to Wolverhampton bus at the same stop most mornings - he then jumps off at the next stop 400 m down the road, near a fish and chip shop. The cat, nicknamed Macavity, has one blue eye and one green eye.
The cat was nicknamed Macavity after the mystery cat in T.S Elliot’s poem. He gets on the bus in front of a row of 1950s semi-detached houses and jumps off at a row of shops down the road which include a fish and chip shop.

Driver Bill Khunkhun, 49, who first saw the cat jumping from the bus in January, said: “It is really odd, the first time I saw the cat jumping off the bus with a group of passengers. I hadn’t seen it get on which was a bit confusing. The next day, I pulled up on Churchill Road to let a couple of passengers on. As soon as I opened the doors the cat ran towards the bus, jumped on and ran under one of the seats, I don’t think any of the passengers noticed. Because I had seen it jump off the day before I carried on driving and sure enough when I stopped just down the road he jumped off - I don’t know why he would catch the bus but he seems to like it. I told some of the other drivers on this route and they have seen him too.”

Since January, when the cat first caught the bus he has done it two or three times a week and always gets on and off at the same stops.

Three Bullets!

There once was a man who had nothing for his family to eat. He had an old rifle and three bullets. So, he decided that he would go out hunting and kill some wild game for dinner.

As he went down the road, he saw a rabbit. He shot at the rabbit and missed it. The rabbit ran away. Then he saw a squirrel and fired a shot at the squirrel and missed it. The squirrel disappeared into a hole in a cottonwood tree.

As he went further, he saw a large wild "Tom" turkey in the tree, but he had only one bullet remaining. A voice spoke to him and said, "Pray first, aim high and stay focused." However, at the same time, he saw a deer which was a better kill. He brought the gun down and aimed at the deer, but then he saw a rattlesnake between his legs about to bite him so he naturally brought the gun down further to shoot the rattlesnake.

Still, the voice said again to him, "I said, Pray, Aim high and Stay focused."

So, the man decided to listen to God's voice. He prayed, then aimed the gun high up in the tree and shot the wild turkey.

The bullet bounced off the turkey and killed the deer. The handle fell off the gun and hit the snake in the head and killed it. And when the gun had gone off, it knocked him into a pond. When he stood up to look around, he had fish in all his pockets, a dead deer and a turkey to eat for his family.

The snake was dead, simply because the man listened to God!!!

My Love Has Come to Me!

My heart is like a singing bird
whose nest is in a water'd shoot…
My heart is like an apple tree
whose boughs are bent with thick-set fruit…
My heart is like a rainbow shell
that paddles in a halcyon sea…
My heart is gladder than all these,
because my love has come to me!

Raise me a dais of silk and down:
Hang it with fair and purple dyes!
Carve it in doves and pomegranates
and peacocks with a hundred eyes!
Work it in gold and silver grapes,
in leaves and silver fleurs-de-lis,
because the birthday of my life
has come, my love has come to me!

God Is Where You Are!

Today I am very happy… I can’t tell you how much! I can't tell you how I feel!
I just wanted to share my happiness with my friends and wanted to say that God is always with you, me, all of us…
Always be hopeful, because there is a light of hope even in the darkest night when you think every thing is going wrong…
Always know that God is thinking of you when you think He has forgotten you…
Always know that you are not alone…
He is always with you, me, all of us!
Be strong, act for the best, and hope for the best…
