Deep Thought from Kids - LOL break

[Are_grits_groceries]

I believe you should live each day as if it is your last, which is why I don't have any clean laundry because, come on, who wants to wash clothes on the last day of thier life -- Age 15

Give me the strength to change the things I can, the grace to accept the things I cannot, and a great big bag of money -- Age 13

It sure would be nice if we got a day off for the president's birthday, like they do for the queen, Of course, we would have a lot of people voting for a candidate born on July 3 or December 26, just for the long weekends -- Age 8

Democracy is a beautiful thing, except for that part about letting just any old yokel vote -- Age 10

Home is where the house is. --Age 6

I often wonder how come John Tesh isn't as popular a singer as some people think he should be. Then, I remember its because he sucks-- Age 15

For centuries, people thought the moon was made of green cheese. Then the astronauts found that the moon is really a big hard rock. That's what happens to cheese when you leave it out -- Age 6

My young brother asked me what happens after we die. I told him we get buried under a bunch of dirt and worms eat our bodies. I guess I should have told him the truth--that most of us go to hell and burn eternally--but I didn't want to upset him -- age 10

I gase at the brilliant full moon. The same one, I think to myself, at which Socrates, Aristotole and Plato gazed. Suddenly, I imagine they appear beside me. I tell Socrates about the national debate over one's right to die and wonder at the constancy of the human condition. I tell Plato that I live in the country that has come the closest to Utopia, and I show him a copy of the Constitution. I tell Aristotle that we have found many more than four basic elements and I show a periodic table. I get a box of kitchen matches and strike one. They gasp with wonder. We spend the rest of the night lighting farts. -- Age 15

When I go to heaven I want to see my grandfather again. But he better have lost the nose hair and the old-man smell -- Age 5

I once heard the voice of God. It said "Vrrrrmmmmm." Unless it was just a lawn mower -- Age 11

I believe a couple of teens or somebody made all of these up. Some still have the ring of truth. The scary one is about why people would vote for a presidential candidate. I believe they would.

1. This one cracked me up

It started out so profoundly and ended up as only a 15 year old could. LOL

2. That one has the stuff to become a writer

Providing that he/she gases at a spell check now and then.

3. But it didn't start out like a 15-year-old would start out.

I suspect it was written by an adult. In fact, I suspect they all were. (When's the last time you heard a kid use the word "yokel"? Really?)

Edited to add: Ask the average kid today who John Tesh is. I suspect you'll get back "Who?"

4. When my nephew was about 4 he was driving with his mother and older brother past a hospital.

His older brother said to his mom "Mom what is that thing for?" as he pointed to the helicopter pad. The four year old piped up with "It is for getting the dead people up to heaven".

I thought that was really cute.
