Don't worry be Happy

Friday night was called Don't worry be Happy and we first enjoyed some fun games....

First game was Cotton Ball Vacuum , a great challenge but done very well by all.

Go girls you can do it!!!

Next was in for string and lolly thread, where we had to thread a lolly though a string and then though an item of clothing and then with the whole team move to the other side of the room.

working well as a team...

then was the Monster game which proved to very hard. how do you move 5 team mates with only 3 body parts of the floor???

Thanks for the GREAT creative ads you all made for DropZone

and now for the last bit of fun...... the Newspaper Ninja which involved dressing some one up in newspaper and then all the dressed newspaper people had to attack each other and get the newspaper off... fun fun.

And then Martijn shared a talk about a WISE MAN

Isn't it true that most people think that being rich, famous or popular, are the things that make you happy?

We challenge you to think about your own goals and those you live with? Think how many of those are desigend to meet one of these goals: being rich, well known, or popular?

The strangest thing is,......the majority of the people that have pursued and achieved these things are really unhappy people......! Film stars, Rock stars and many politicians make up some of the most popular and richest people in the world, but they are also some of the most miserable.

Next we listened to the record and wisdom of the richest and wisest King ever lived on earth, who's gold alone, increased by about 1/4billion US$ annually, who wrote many songs which we still use today, who had his own private army.

At the height of his fame and wealth, this is what he had to say: A young person may be poor but wise,. He is better then a foolish old king.

At the end of the day, its not our fame or wealth that will give us our pleasure. Its all about the relationships you have with family and friends.

The other thing that is going to give you happiness, is something most people leave till the last option. The fact is that true, lasting happiness does not depend on circumstances, but on the security of knowing God, and following Him.

Just think about the life you want to live, and where you'd rather be?

Wish you a awesome week, and we'll see you back next week........
