This is a true story and it will give you the chills. This is a beautiful and touching story of love and perseverance. Well worth the read.
At the prodding of my friends I am writing this story. My name is Mildred
Honor and I am a former elementary school music teacher from DesMoines ,
Iowa .
I have always supplemented my income by teaching piano lessons - something I have done for over 30 years.
During those years I found that children have many levels of musical ability and even though I have never had the pleasure of having a prodigy, I have taught some very talented students.
However, I have also had my share of what I call musically challenged'
pupils - one such pupil being Robby..
Robby was 11 years old when his mother (a single mom) dropped him off for
his first piano lesson. I prefer that students (especially boys) begin at an earlier age, which I explained to Robby. But Robby said that it had always been his mother's dream to hear him play the piano, so I took him as a student.
Well, Robby began his piano lessons and from the beginning I thought it was a hopeless endeavor. As much as Robby tried, he lacked the sense of tone and basic rhythm needed to excel. But he dutifully reviewed his scales and some elementary piano pieces that I require all my students
to learn. Over the months he tried and tried while I listened and cringed
and tried to encourage him.
At the end of each weekly lesson he would always say 'My mom's going to hear me play someday'. But to me, it seemed hopeless, he just did not have any inborn ability.
I only knew his mother from a distance as she dropped Robby off or waited in her aged car to pick him up. She always waved and smiled, but never dropped in.
Then one day Robby stopped coming for his lessons. I thought about calling him, but assumed that because of his lack of ability he had decided to pursue something else. I was also glad that he had stopped coming - he was a bad advertisement for my teaching!
Several weeks later I mailed a flyer recital to the students' homes. To my
surprise, Robby (who had received a flyer) asked me if he could be in the
recital. I told him that the recital was for current pupils and that
because he had dropped out, he really did not qualify.
He told me that his mother had been sick and unable to take him to his piano lessons, but that he had been practicing. 'Please Miss Honor, I've just got to play' he insisted. I don't know what led me to allow him to play in the recital - perhaps it was his insistence or maybe something inside of me saying that it would be all right.
The night of the recital came and the high school gymnasium was packed with parents, relatives and friends. I put Robby last in the program, just before I was to come up and thank all the students and play a
finishing piece. I thought that any damage he might do would come at the end of the program and I could always salvage his poor performance through my curtain closer'.
Well, the recital went off without a hitch, the students had been practicing and it showed. Then Robby came up on the stage. His clothes were wrinkled and his hair looked as though he had run an egg beater through it. 'Why wasn't he dressed up like the other students?' I thought. 'Why didn't his mother at least make him comb his hair for this
special night?'
Robby pulled out the piano bench, and I was surprised when he announced that he had chosen to play Mozart's Concerto No. 21 in C Major. I was not prepared for what I heard next. His fingers were light on the keys, they even danced nimbly on the ivories. He went from pianissimo to fortissimo, from allegro to virtuoso his suspended chords that Mozart demands were magnificent!
Never had I heard Mozart played so well by anyone his age.
After six and a half minutes he ended in a grand crescendo, and everyone was on their feet in wild applause! Overcome and in tears, I ran up on stage and put my arms around Robby in joy. 'I have never heard you play like that Robby, how did you do it?
Through the microphone Robby explained: 'Well, Miss Honor .... remember I
told you that my mom was sick? Well, she actually had cancer and passed away this morning. And well ...... she was born deaf, so tonight was the first time she had ever heard me play, and I wanted to make it special.'
There wasn't a dry eye in the house that evening. As the people from Social Services led Robby from the stage to be placed in to foster care, I noticed that even their eyes were red and puffy. I thought to myself then how much richer my life had been for taking Robby as my pupil.
No, I have never had a prodigy, but that night I became a prodigy ....... of Robby. He was the teacher and I was the pupil, for he had taught me the
meaning of perseverance and love and believing in yourself, and may be
even taking a chance on someone and you didn't know why.
Robby was killed years later in the senseless bombing of the Alfred P.
Murray Federal Building in Oklahoma City in April, 1995.
And now, a footnote to the story. If you are thinking about forwarding this message, you are probably wondering which people on your address list aren't the 'appropriate' ones to receive this type of message. The person who sent this to you believes that we can all make a difference!
So many seemingly trivial interactions between two people present us with a choice
Do we act with compassion or do we pass up that opportunity and leave the
world a bit colder in the process?
Well I decided to POST this on this blog as it just shows that NONE OF US KNOW WHAT OTHERS ARE REALLY GOING THROUGH.
Stop Judging lest WE be judged.......Matthew 7

THE KILLER GOING INTO YOUR MOUTH
For many years we have used Natural means of healing as far as we can. We try to be careful about what we eat and drink. We do not smoke, we drink very little alcohol and use Herbs and other natural remedies rather than Drugs.
When we went to Turkey for our Getaway trip in October organised by an American group of Christians, we had the free use of Doctors, Chiropracters and foot massagers.
I had my blood pressure taken and was rather shocked to that see it was quite elevated. My BP has been fairly steady for many years.
Rather than take a pill to reduce the BP, I began researching the net for Natural products to help lower it. I purchased a unit called a Resperate, which helps slow down the breathing. Christine also got me on the best available herbs she knows to lower the BP.
Since October I have been doing these things and yet my BP is still around the same as it was in Turkey. As we were talking about it on Thursday, Chris had a revelation that it could be some kind of metal, such as lead or similar as as she knows all about Heavy Metals and what they can cause.
We have been very mindful over the years about the dangers of Amalgum in the teeth and also FLOURIDE used in toothpaste.
Both Mercury and flouride are deadly poisons. So we have used a toothpaste called Kingfisher brand that is claimed to be safe and uncontaminated.
When we were in the UK a friend purchased 4 tubes for us, but they contained flouride. We normally always use the non flouride version. However we decided to use it up and when its gone, get the other one.
But as Chris was determined to get to the bottom of my elevated BP, she did some searches and found the terrible truth about deadly FLOURIDE and its effects on the human body over time.
Fluoride is an interesting molecule. In the second world war Hitler wanted to put fluoride in the water of the occupied countries in order to make people MORE DOCILE. Thats why fluoride is also a component of many tranquilizers.
In Germany the addition of fluoride to the drinking water is considered unvoluntary medication. In many european countries no fluoride is added to the drinking water. In the Netherlands they give children fluoride pills instead. In the US almost all the drinking water contains fluoride. Its for maintaining good teeth says the goverment. This is garbage, because in europe, where there is no fluoride in drinking water, peoples teeth are as healthy as in the US. In the UK and especially the Midlands where we lived for 20 years they use the highest quanitity of flouride in the public water system
The real reason to add fluoride to the drinking water is reducing peoples IQ and to make them more docile. NEW WORLD ORDER tactics.
Fluoride accumulates in calcified tissues. One of these tissues is in our brains. In Britain they found very high levels in the tissue of people who had died. Some people say that exposure to fluoride is linked to Alzheimers disease. Some time ago they did an interesting experiment in a US town. Half of the town got fluoride in the water. The other half got normal unpoisend water. They found that woman living in the side of the town with fluoride in the water got their period earlier. Probably this has something to do with the organ in the brain in which fluoride accumulates.
Dr. Phyllis Mullenix became well known in the field of neurotoxicology when she developed a new, more accurate system of analyzing chemicals effects on the brain and central nervous system. The new technology was called the Computer Pattern Recognition System.
She received funding from a variety of high profile sources, and consulted with Exxon, Mobil, 3M, DuPont and others in her early career. She was very well received until she began to investigate the effects of fluoride on the central nervous system. Ultimately, her career was destroyed because of her investigation.
This presentation by Mullenix at Clark University in 1996 was done two years after she was fired from her toxicology position at Forsyth Dental Center. Mullenix covers vital information regarding secrecy surrounding Fluoride and the Manhattan Project and much more. For more information be sure to check out Christopher Bryson’s book The Fluoride Deception.
A vital piece of information that Mullenix covers is a communication that took place between Harold Hodge (head toxicologist for the Manhattan Project) and Lt. Col. Rhodes on May 1, 1946. Hodge writes in the letter, in which he uses “F” to abbreviate Fluoride,
http://www.all-natural.com/fleffect.html
The above site gives proof of all the detrimental cases of flouride poisoning.
Christine went on to find that it also causes Kidney Disease and is also implicated in many heart conditions as well. Our studies are ongoing, but I felt it wise to warn all those who visit the blog.
Satan is a destroyer and he uses the powers of darkness to pollute us and to get rid of us.
Keep awake and stop using the Colgate, Mouthwashes and any product containing FLOURIDE and get a water filter for your tap water.
Blessings as always

EARTHQUAKES IN ONE PLACE AFTER ANOTHER
What with huge floods like they have had in Australia and now earthquakes in ENGLAND, we are seeing an increase in the END TIME scenario.
Jesus warned that in the LAST DAYS there would be an increase in EARTHQUAKES and many other things.
This is the quotation from Matthew 24:7-14
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and realm against realm, and there shall be famine, and pestilence, and EARTHQUAKES IN DIVERS PLACES.
8 All these are but the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you, and ye shall be hated of all nations for my Name’s sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall arise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall be increased, the love of many shall be cold.
13 But he that endureth to the end, he shall be saved.
14 And this Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached through the whole world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come.
THE SECOND EARTHQUAKE TO SHAKE ENGLAND WITHIN TWO WEEKS
An earthquake has shaken northern England for the second time in a fortnight.
The tremor, measuring 3.6 on the Richter scale, struck near Ripon, North Yorkshire, at 9.02pm on Monday and was felt as far afield as West Yorkshire, Tyne & Wear, and Cumbria.
Residents living near the epicentre described hearing crockery rattling and doors shaking on their hinges for several seconds. The rumble followed a quake of magnitude 3.5 which struck in Coniston in the Lake District shortly on December 21.
Chris Allinson, 17, was watching television with his family when he felt last night's quake hit his home in Ripon.
The A-level student, who is studying at Giggleswick School, said: "I heard a loud rumbling like the sound of a big tractor passing the house outside. Things started shaking and the dogs started barking. It got louder and louder and I jumped up to get outside.
"Then there was just this rush of sound like a snowdrift falling from a tiled roof, and after that, silence. We stood outside and stared at each other."
Staff at the Swinton Park Hotel in Masham, 10 miles from the epicentre of the quake, also felt the earth move. One of the front of house staff, a 27-year-old who did not wish to be named, said two quakes hit the hotel.
She said: "The first lasted three seconds or so and rattled everything on the shelves. Seconds later there was a second quake, shorter this time. I thought, 'That was an earthquake', but then thought it could not have been - you don't get earthquakes in Yorkshire."
The British Geological Survey said the tremor struck about six miles west of Ripon. "Many people throughout the region have reported having felt this event," the organisation said.
Dr Aoife O'Mongain from the BGS added: "It would have only lasted for a couple of seconds. And at that strength it is not likely that it would have caused any damage. People living in the vicinity may have felt their windows rattling as if a lorry was going past."
Mankind thinks he knows what is going on and yet so many are BLIND to the real things that are happening in the Supernatural realm. These are wake up calls, but IS ANYONE TAKING ANY NOTICE that we are living in the FINAL DAYS.
Let us proclaim the GOSPEL and take on the MISSION of JESUS CHRIST as recorded in chapter 24 of Matthew. Go ye there forth and preach the GOOD NEWS that our Lord and King is getting ready to take over.
Every blessing for this Nea Chronia
