Food-landscapes-by-Carl-Warner 
The following short quiz consists of 4 questions
and will tell you whether you are qualified to be a
"professional." Scroll down for each answer.

The questions are NOT that difficult.
1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?
Shred it?
Wrong answer

The correct answer is:
Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the door.
This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly complicated way.

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?
Did you say, "Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the refrigerator?"
(Wrong Answer) 

Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in the elephant
and close the door. This tests your ability to think through the repercussions
of your previous actions.

3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference.
All the animals attend except one. Which animal does not attend?

Did you say the jitter bug?
(wrong answer)

Correct Answer: The Elephant.
The elephant is in the refrigerator. - You just put him in there.
This tests your memory.

OK, even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you still have one
more chance to show your true abilities.

4. You have to cross a river inhabited by crocodiles.
How do you manage it?

Did he fly? No No
Did he cut down a tree and drop it? No No
Did he make a Tarzan vine? No No
Did he fetch Moses? NO NO

Correct Answer: You swim across.
All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting.

This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.
According to Anderson Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all questions
wrong. But many preschoolers got several correct answers.

Through the Eyes of Children
When I look at a patch of dandelions, 
I see a bunch of weeds that are going to take over the yard.
My kids see flowers for Mom
and blowing white fluff to wish upon a star.

When I look at an old drunk and he smiles at me,
I see a smelly, dirty man
 who probably wants money and I look away.
My kids smile back and hold out their hand.

When I hear music I love, I know I can't carry a tune
 and don't have good rhythm, so I just listen or hum really low.
My kids feel the beat and move. They sing out the words.
 If they don't know them, they make up their own.

When I feel wind on my face, I brace myself against it. 
I feel it messing up my hair and pulling me back.
My kids close their eyes, spread their arms and fly with it, 
until they fall to the ground in a laughing attack.

When I pray, I say thee, thou and grant me this, give me that.
My kids say, "Hi God!  Please keep the bad dreams away tonight. 
Thanks for my toys and my friends. Sorry,
I don't want to go to Heaven yet. I would miss Mommy and Daddy, alright."

When I see a mud puddle I step around it. 
I see muddy shoes and dirty carpets.
My kids sit in it. They see dams to build,  worms,
rivers to cross, in the love of playing in the wet.

I wonder if we are given kids to teach, but also to learn from?
 No wonder God loves the little children so!
Let's enjoy the little things in life,
for one day we may realize, they were the biggest things to know.

1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked,
“Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 
2 He called a little child and had him stand among them. 
3 And he said: “I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children,
you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 
4 Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
 5 “And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. 
Matthew 18

But Jesus called the children to him and said, 
“Let the little children come to me, 
and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 
Luke 18:16
