Examples of use word admiration Example 1Once upon a time in the kingdom of Heaven, God
went missing for seven days. Eventually, Michael the archangel
found
him. He inquired of God, "Where were you?". God sighed a deep
sigh of
satisfaction and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds;
look my
child, look what I've just finished making. Archangel
Michael looked
puzzled and said what is it? God replied, "its another
planet, but this
time, I' ve decided to put LIFE on it. I've named
it earth and
there's going to be a balance between evertyhing on
it.
For example, there's North America and South America. North
America is
going to be rich and South America is going to be poor,
and the narrow
bit joining them - that's going to be a hot spot.
Now look over here.
I've put a continent of white people in the
North and another one of
black people in the South".
And then
the archangel said, "and what's that long white line
there?"
And God said "ahhh that's the land of the long white cloud -
Aotearoa - (New Zealand) that's a very special place. That's going to be
the most glorious spot on earth; Beautiful mountains, lakes,
rivers,
streams and an exquisite coastline. These people here are going
to be
modest, intelligent and humorous and they're going to be fond
of travelling
the world. They'll be extremely sociable, hard
working and high
achieveing. And I'm going to give them this
superhuman, undefeatable rugby
team which will be blessed with the most
talented, and charasmatic
specimens on the planet, and they will be
admired and feared by all who come
across them". Michael the archangel
gasped in wonder and
admiration (synonyms of word admiration above)
but then seeming startled
proclaimed, "hold on a second, what about the
BALANCE, you said ther was
going to be a balance....."
God replied wisely, "wait until you see
the neighbours I'm going to
give them".

house next door
to a vacant lot. One day a construction crew turned up
to start
building a house on the empty lot.
The young family's 6 year old
daughter naturally took an interest in
all the activity going on next
door and started talking with the
workers. She hung around and
eventually the construction crew - gems in the
rough, all of them - more
or less adopted her as a kind of project
mascot. They chatted with
her, let her sit with them while they had coffee
and lunch
breaks,and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make
her feel
important.
At the end of the first week they even presented her with
a pay
envelope containing a dollar. The little girl took this home
to her mother who
said all the appropriate words of
admiration (synonyms of word admiration above) and
suggested that they
take the dollar pay she had received to the
bank the next day to start a
savings account.
When they
got to the bank the teller was equally impressed with the
story
and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own pay check
at such a young age.
The little girl proudly replied, "I've
been working with a crew
building a house all week". "My goodness
gracious", said the teller,
"and will you be working on the house
again this week too"?
"I will if those useless morons at the lumber
yard ever bring us the
f****** bricks", replied the little girl.
