If you want to become a millionaire, become friends with the right one!
People will become attracted to you through those you associate with, whether it happens by accident or by choice...
Allow me to explain:
One day, Pope John Paul was on his way to the United States. His mission? Deliver the anuual Thanksgiving Day message at the White House.
While sitting on the plane, waiting patiently to arrive on American soil, he grabbed the latest issue of "Car and Driver," from his carry on bag...
Dreaming of the opportunity to actually drive one day (versus having people drive him from place to place), he prayed that God would allow him this blessing, if only one time.
Upon his arrival at the airport, sure enough, there was was the usual chauffer, waiting as always.
This time, however, something was different! They hadn't sent an ordinary limo...
in fact, they had sent him the limo of his prayers and dreams... the new, top of the line Hummer, just like the one featured in "Car and Driver!"
The Pope was elated that God had heard and answered his plea!
"Ask and it shall be given," God told him in his heart, so the Pope asked the chauffer if he could drive.
The chauffer strenuosly objected to the Pontiffs' request, but after "sharing his story of always being driven from place to place and never being able to drive himself", the chauffer was touched by the story and agreed to let him drive, but only through the parking lot, as he didn't have a drivers license.
Once they had reached the end of the parking lot, the Pope pleaded for a little road time, and of course, the chauffer objected. Again, the Pope continued with his story of days gone by without his hands on the wheel, and the chauffer was compelled to let him continue.
It just so happened that they came upon the Interstate, and before the chauffer could object, the Pope had hit the on ramp and was accelerating to highway speed...
50, 60, 70, 80 miles per hour... the Hummer Limo rolled down the highyway smooth and mean.
The Pope rolled down the window, rested his elbow on the door, smiling from ear to ear and thanking God for the experience and how it was everything he had ever dreamed it would be.
Unfortunatley, once the speedometer hit 90, they passed a state police officer (who was not only monitoring traffic speed, but as also happened to a devout Catholic) and were immediately pulled over for going to fast.
As the officer approached the window of the limo, he was (at first) oblivious to the fact that there sat the Pope, elbow still resting on the window, cool as the morning breeze.
"What seems to be the problem officer," the Pope asked, beaming from ear to ear?
The officer asked "Sir, do you know how fast..."
And then he stopped in mid sentence... his mouth falling open slightly, amazed that the leader of his church and the model of his faith was the man sitting behind the wheel.
He then peered into the back of the limo, surprised to see who was sitting in the back. Nonetheless, he smiled at the man... bowing his head slightly as to say "hello"... with all due reverence and respect.
He then looked back at the Pope and said, "Sir, I'll be right back with you!"
Quickly, he turned away and raced back to his patrol car!
In an instant, he radioed the captain back at the station, hardly able to contain the excitement and confusion.
The officer said, "Captain, you aren't going to believe who I just pulled over..."
"This better be good," the captain warned... "who did you pull over... the mayor," he asked?
"No sir," replied the officer, he's more important than that..."
"More imoprtant than the mayor? Is it the governor," asked the captain?
"No sir," the officer conitnued... "much more important than that..."
"Well who is it man?", the captain demanded... "the President, the Queen? Who?"
Unable to contain his jubilation he said, sir... I believe it has to be God because the Pope is his chauffer!"
Are those you are chosing to surround yourself with attracting others to you?
