Eternity

The actual author of this post is Karisa (http://www.blogger.com/profile/00463642332693746475) . We did a little skit based on this together in a camp a few months ago. The theme of the skit is Eternity.

CAST:
Carissa: A young girl about 6 years of age.
Gau Mau: A teenage young boy, about 12 years of age.
Gman: Gau Mau's twin brother.
Nerd: Another sibling, about 15 years of age.
Dad: Father of the kids.

ITS A TYPICAL AMERICAN FAMILY GOING OUT FOR A PICNIC IN A CAR. THEY'VE BEEN TRAVELING FOR A WHILE NOW

Carissa: Are we there yet?
Carissa: (LOUDER) Are we there yet?
Dad: No, sweetie. It's still a long way.
Carissa: Its taking eternity to get there.
Gau Mau: What's eternity?
Gman: Eternity is like ten thousand years.
Gau Mau: No no, its like the time mom takes to do her make up...
Gman: hmmm.... (WONDERING)
Gau Mau: (continuing)...or may be eternity is as long as grand pa has been alive
Gman: No... its not that... i don't know....
Nerd: You the dictionary says that eternity means a time without an end.
Gau Mau: What ever mr. smarty pants!! pbhttt....

AT THIS POINT DAD (WHO WAS DRIVING THE CAR) SPEAKS TO THE CHILDREN.

Dad: Well. kids I want you to understand this very well. Eternity is not ten thousand years, neither does your mother takes eternal time to put on her make up.
Eternity is way beyond what our minds can fathom. But you know what the good news is - We can choose where we life our eternal life.
Our eternity—where we will spend it—is decided by whether or not we accept the gift of salvation offered by Jesus. If we do, then we are privileged to spend eternity—forever—in the presence of God in Heaven. If we do not, then we are forever apart from God, in Hell.

KIDS ARE IN TREMENDOUS AWE AND THERE IS SILENCE AMONGST THE KIDS


Carissa: Are we there yet?

Happiness is...

In the bright blue sky,
After a rainy day.
In the glittering of stars,
on a dark night.

In trembling sound of waves,
at the ocean shore.
In cool breeze,
of the deep valleys.

In making stupid mistakes,
In giving your best, yet again.
In memories of the past,
In dreams of the future.

In the pain of leaving someone,
In the thought of the journey ahead.
In the dry autumn,
In the fresh spring.

In the rush of the day,
In peaceful sleep at night.
In losing things you most treasured,
In finding people you'll never lose

Its in rejection,
Its in approval.
Its here, its there.
Its elusive, its everywhere.

Bitter-Sweet is this Life

Bitter-sweet is this life
I don't know where to go
I don't know what to decide

Circumstances lead my way
Sometimes they brought me comfort
Sometimes they lead me astray
I desire to dwell in the fondness of someone
Who fills that space with love, with conversation
No foe, no doubt, no question.

Bitter-sweet is this life
I don't know where to go
I don't know what to decide

Not everyting withers away with time
Those precious moments together
When I said that you are mine
That ear-to-ear grin
You used to listen to me
You understood everything

Bitter-sweet is this life
I don't know where to go
I don't know what to decide

I am tired of living with borrowed expression
Of futile scathing, of useless criticism,
No more calculated steps, no more discretion
I realise what I need to do
And I won't look for a reason
To say that I've found you

Bitter-sweet is this life
I don't know where to go
I don't know what to decide

At Gun Point

RECENTLY GMAN AND VANNY GOT INTO IN A FIGHT WITH EVIL TJAY. HE WAS DRUNK AND HAD TWO BODY GAURDS, ONE OF THEM WAS CARRYING A GUN.

Djay: You fools. I'll kill you right now.
Gman: You say sorry and I'll let you go.
Vanny: Sorry
Gman: I was not talking to you. I am talking to Tjay.

AT THIS MOMENT THE GUN MAN GOT HOLD OF GMAN.

Gman: Vanny, now is the right time for you to say sorry.

NOW I DON'T THINK WE NEED AN INTERLUDE HERE TO LAY A PLATFORM OF WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT.
SO LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, HERE WE GO...
FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER...
YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBOURHOOD GMAN WILL DISPLAY HIS "SUPERPOWERS".

Gaurd: ha ha ha ha ha...
Vanny: Boo hoo hoo...
Gun Man: He he he he he...
Djay: Hu hu hu hu hu... (Bad breath)
Gman: ....................................(the silence of the gman)

VANNY IS SURPRISED WHEN HE NOTICES THAT GMAN HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING YET. BUT THEN SUDDENLY...

Vanny: hey! gman you've peed in your pants
Djay: ha ha ha ha ha...
Gaurd: He he he he he...
Gun Man: Eww... that's disgusting
(runs away)

AHA!! LOOKS LIKE GMAN HAD A PLAN THERE. NOW THE BATTLE IS EVEN, 2 ON 2 AND NO GUNS.

Gman: Bingo
Vanny: Bravo gman... yay!!

VANNY BEATS UP TJAY AND HIS GAURD AND THE DAY IS SAVED THANKS TO YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBOURHOOD GMAN.

Gman: Thank you Vanny you saved my life.
Vanny: No, it was your quick wits that saved our lives. I would have never done that (he he he he he...)

A WEEK LATER.

ON PHONE...

Gman: Did I ever tell you how I saved Vanny's life from a group of armed gangsters?
Bjam: Yup... but tell me once more.
Gman: So here goes...
Bjam: Aww... I wish I was there.

AT THE SAME TIME ON THE OTHER LINE

Vanny: Did I ever tell you how gman peed in his pants?
Paddy: Yup... but tell me once more.
Vanny: So here goes...
Paddy: LOL... I wish I was there.
