This is indeed touching.........

This is indeed touching.........
A certain rich businessman had a beautiful daughter,
who fell in
love with a guy who was a cleaner.

When the girl's father came to know about their love,
he did not
like it at all, and so began to protest about it.

Now it happened that the two lovers decided to leave
their homes
for a happy future. The girl's father started
searching for the two
lovers but could not find them.

At last, he accepted their love and asked them to come
back home in
a local newspaper. Her father said "If you both come
back I will
allow youto marry the guy you love, I accept that
you loved each
other truly."

So in this way, their love won and they returned home.
The couple went to town to shop for the wedding dress.
He was
dressed in white shirt that day. While he was
crossing the road to the
other side to get some drinks for his wife, a car came
and hit him and he
died
on the spot. The girl lost her senses. It was only
after sometimes that
she recovered from her shock. The funeral and
cremation was the very
next day because he had died horribly.

Two nights later, the girl's mother had a dream in
which she saw an
old lady. The old lady asked her mother to wash the
blood stains of the
guy from her daughter's dress as soon as possible. But
her mother
ignored the dream.

The next night her father had the same dream, he also
ignored it.
Then when the girl had the same dream the next
night, she woke up in
fear and told her mother about the dream. Her mother
asked her to wash
the clothes which have blood stains immediately.

she washed the stains but some remained. Next night

she again had
the same dream she again washed the stains but some
still remained.

Next night she again had the same dream and this time
the old lady
gave her a last warning to wash the blood stain, orelse something
terrible will happen. This time the girl tried herbest to wash the
stains, andthe clothes nearly tore, but some stainsstill
remained.

She was very tired.
In the late evening the same day while she was aloneat home,
someone knocked the door. When she opened the door shesaw the same
oldlady of her dream standing at her door. She got veryscared
and fainted.

The old lady woke her up... and gave her a blueobject, which
shocked the girl. She asked "What is this...?"
The old lady replied...

"Try Surf Exel Washing powder... just a dab and itwill remove all
stubborn stains!!!" .



I know how you all are feeling now... I have been through this too.
But don't look at me like that . I'm also hunting for the idiot who
 mailed this to me!

Why worry?

Why Worry?
There are only two things in life to worry about:


Whether you are well

or whether you are sick.



If you are well,

then there is nothing to worry about.



But if you are sick,

there are o nly two things to worry about:



Whether you are going to get well

or whether you are going to die.




If you get well,

then there is nothing to worry about.



But if you die,

there are o nly two things to worry about:


Whether you are going to go to heaven

or whether you are going to go to hell.



If you go to heaven,

then you have nothing to worry about.



But if you go to hell,

you'll be so busy shaking hands with all your friends,

that you won't have time to worry!

So, Why Worry?

Modern Panchtantra Story [ IT HUMOR ] 

Once upon a time , there was a software engineer who used to develop programs on his Pentium machine, sitting under a tree on the banks of a river. He  used to earn his bread by selling those programs in the Sunday  market.
One day, while he was working, his machine tumbled off the table and fell in the river. Encouraged by the Panchatantra story of his childhood   ( the woodcutter and the axe He started praying to the River Goddess. The River Goddess wanted to  test him and so appeared only after one month of rigorous prayers. The engineer told her that he had lost his computer in the river.As usual, the Goddess wanted to test his honesty. She showed him a  match box and asked, "  Is this your computer ?" Disappointed by the Goddess' lack of computer awareness, the  engineer replied, " No."She next showed him a pocket-sized calculator and asked if that was  his. Annoyed, the engineer said "No, not at all !!"Finally, she came up with his own Pentium machine and asked if it was his.The engineer, left with no option, sighed and said "Yes." The River Goddess was happy with his honesty. She was about to give him all three items, but before she could make the offer, the engineer asked her, "Don't you know that you're supposed to show me some better computers before bringing up my own ?"The River Goddess, angered at this, replied, "I know that, you  stupid donkey! The first two things I showed you were the Trillennium and the Billennium, the latest computers from IBM !". So saying, she disappeared with the Pentium!!

  Moral: If you're not up-to-date with technology trends, it's better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you're a genius than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Money is not the destiny.

Story of Validad

Once there lived a poor carpenter called Validad in his small hut. He was living alone and had no kith and kin. He worked hard all the day and was accepting only reasonable money for that.  Since he was spending very little and saving the rest, his money box was full with coins after some time.

He wanted to spend his money fully and went to a gold merchant.

"Please give me some ornament equivalent to the value of the whole coins in my box" Validad said to the merchant.

The gold merchant gave him a beautiful golden bangle and Validad liked it also. But he thought that he didn't have any use of it.  At that time a cloth merchant came there on his horse.

"Where are you going to" asked Validad

" I am going to the palace to sell some silk clothes to the princess" said the cloth merchant.

"Dear friend, please give this golden bangle to the princess and tell her that it is a gift from Validad"

The cloth merchant gave that gift to the princess and she liked it very much.  In return she sent some very costly silk clothes to Validad.

" What  I will do this costly silk clothes?" Validad asked the merchant when he got the gift from princess.

" You can gift this to somebody" said the merchant

"to whom ?  Because this is very costly and only kings wear such clothes" said Validad

"I am going to the sultan of nearby province. I can give it to him" said the merchant

"Okay, please give it to him and tell that it is a gift from Validad"

Sultan was so happy to get the precious silk clothes. In return he sent six majestic horses to Validad through the merchant. 

Validad gifted those horses to the princess again. She wondered who this Validad was.

Princess ordered " Let Validad know that we too know how to give gifts.  Send twenty big boxes of silver to him on twenty donkeys."

When Validad got the valuable gift from princess she sent it to the sultan.  Sultan wondered who this wealthy person would be and in return he sent twenty carts full of diamonds and gold to Validad.

Validad gifted all those diamonds and gold to the princess. This time princess really surprised and wanted to know who this Validad was. She set out to visit Validad.  When she reached the hut of Validad the sultan also was there who came there to visit Validad.  They knew about the poor hardworking Validad.

 Both the sultan and princess liked each other and married. They asked Validad to stay with them in the Palace which Validad humbly refused. Then they sent a lot of money and gifts to Validad to him. Seeing the soldiers coming with big gift boxes Validad fled away from that country.

This is an Indian tale.

Is there any person like Validad in the Earth who doesn't have even a grain of interest in wealth and money?  The majority is running after wealth, money and power. They are not satisfied with the wealth and money they amassed and they struggle to amass more and reluctant to share it with others.

We need reasonable wealth and money to live in this earth comfortably. Apart from that if the very purpose of life itself is amassing wealth and money our life will be a disaster.

In many wealthy families even brothers and sisters fight each other just for money.  

If at all we are not becoming like Validad, at least let us not be influenced by the power of money.

Money is not the destiny. 

It is like 'pea nuts' to eat while we travel the great journey of our life

Confessions of a Kid


Little Bobby came into the kitchen where his mother was making dinner. His birthday was coming up and he thought this was a good time to tell his mother what he wanted.

"Mom, I want a bike for my birthday."


Little Bobby was a bit of a troublemaker. He had gotten into trouble at school and at home. Bobby's mother asked him if he thought he deserved to get a bike for his birthday. Little Bobby, of course, thought he did. Bobby's mother wanted Bobby to reflect on his behavior over the last year.

"Go to your room, Bobby, and think about how you have behaved this year.Then write a letter to God and tell him why you deserve a bike for your birthday."

Little Bobby stomped up the steps to his room and sat down to write God a letter.
Letter 1

Dear God,

I have been a very good boy this year and I would like a bike for my birthday. I want a red one.

Your friend,
Bobby

Bobby knew that this wasn't true. He had not been a very good boy this year, so he tore up the letter and started over.
Letter 2

Dear God,

This is your friend Bobby. I have been a good boy this year and I would like a red bike for my birthday. Thank you.

Your friend,
Bobby

Bobby knew that this wasn't true either. So, he tore up the letter and started again.
Letter 3

Dear God,

I have been an OK boy this year. I still would really like a bike for my birthday.

Bobby

Bobby knew he could not send this letter to God either. So, Bobby wrote a fourth letter.
Letter 4

God,

I know I haven't been a good boy this year. I am very sorry. I will be a good boy if you just send me a bike for my birthday.

Please! Thank you,

Bobby

Bobby knew, even if it was true, this letter was not going to get him a bike. Now, Bobby was very upset. He went downstairs and told his mom that he wanted to go to church. Bobby's mother thought her plan had worked, as Bobby looked very sad.

"Just be home in time for dinner", Bobby's mother told him.

Bobby walked down the street to the church on the corner. Little Bobby went into the church and up to the altar. He looked around to see if anyone was there. Bobby bent down and picked up a statue of the Mary. He slipped the statue under his shirt and ran out of the church, down the street, into the house, and up to his room. He shut the door to his room and sat down with a piece of paper and a pen.

Bobby began to write his letter to God.
Letter 5

God,

I'VE KIDNAPPED YOUR MAMA. IF YOU WANT TO SEE HER AGAIN, SEND ME THE 
BIKE!!!!!!

KEEPING HOPES MAY NOT IMPROVE YOUR FUTURE, BUT IT WILL CERTAINLY REDUCE THE PAIN OF TODAY!!!


 
EK GADHA :-  YAAR MERA MALIK MUJHE BAHUT MAARTA HAI.
DUSARA GADHA :- TO TU BHAAG KYON NAHI JATA.

Wonderful story..Life is abt correcting mistakes


Wonderful story..Life is abt correcting mistakes


Monica married Hitesh this day. At the end of the wedding party, Monica's mother gave her a newly opened bank saving passbook. With Rs.1000 deposit amount.  

Mother: 'Monica, take this passbook... Keep it as a record of your marriage life. When there's something happy and memorable happened in your new life, put some money in. Write down what it's about next to the line. The more memorable the event is, the more money you can put in. I've done the first one for you today. Do the others with Hitesh. When you look back after years, you can know how much happiness you've had.'
Monica shared this with Hitesh when getting home. They both thought it was a great idea and were anxious to know when the second deposit can be made.
This was what they did after certain time:
 - 7 Feb: Rs.100, first birthday celebration for Hitesh after marriage
 - 1 Mar: Rs.300, salary raise for Monica
 - 20 Mar: Rs.200, vacation trip to Bali
 - 15 Apr: Rs.2000, Monica got pregnant
 - 1 Jun: Rs.1000, Hitesh got promoted..... and so on...
 However, after years, they started fighting and arguing for trivial things. They didn't talk much. They regretted that they had married the most nasty people in the world.... no more love...Kind of typical nowadays, huh?
 One day Monica talked to her Mother:
 'Mom, we can't stand it anymore. We agree to divorce. I can't imagine how I decided to marry this guy!!!'
 Mother: 'Sure, girl, that's no big deal. Just do whatever you want if you really can't stand it. But before that, do one thing first. Remember the saving passbook I gave you on your wedding day? Take out all money and spend it first. You shouldn't keep any record of such a poor marriage.'
Monica thought it was true. So she went to the bank, waiting at the queue and planning to cancel the account.  
While she was waiting, she took a look at the passbook record. She looked, and looked, and looked. Then the memory of all the previous joy and happiness just came up her mind. Her eyes were then filled with tears. She left and went home.
When she was home, she handed the passbook to Hitesh, asked him to spend the money before getting divorce.
 The next day, Hitesh gave the passbook back to Monica. She found a new deposit of Rs.5000. And a line next to the record: 'This is the day I notice how much I've loved you thru out all these years. How much happiness you've brought me.'
 They hugged and cried, putting the passbook back to the safe.
 Do you know how much money they had saved when they retired? I did not ask. I believe the money did not matter any more after they had gone thru all the good years in their life.
"When you fall, in any way,
Don't see the place where you fell, I
instead see the place from where you slipped."
"Life is about correcting mistakes."

Good Morning



Morning is not only sunrise but a beautiful miracle of god
that defeats darkness and spreads light.
May this one be a beautiful day for you.

The desire to excel...

A gentleman was once visiting a temple under construction. In the temple premises, he saw a sculptor making an idol of God. Suddenly he saw, just a few meters away, another identical idol was lying.  
Surprised he asked the sculptor, "Do you need two statutes of the same idol". "No" said the sculptor. "We need only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage". The gentleman examined the sculptor. No apparent damage was visible.

"Where is the damage" asked the gentleman.
"There is a scratch on the nose of the idol " replied sculptor  
 Where are you going to keep the idol? " asked the gentleman 
"The sculptor replied that it will be installed on a pillar 20 feet high  "
"When the idol will be 20 feet away from the eyes of the beholder, who is going to know that there is scratch on the nose?" The gentleman asked.

The sculptor looked at the gentleman, smiled and said "God knows it and I know it.

The desire to excel should be exclusive of the fact whether someone appreciates it or not. Excellence is a drive from "Inside" not "Outside

WHEN THERE IS MORE DOUBTS THAN TRUST
BUT IT'S STRONGEST
WHEN THERE IS MORE TRUST THAN DOUBTS

when to say sorry


  • Think of an apology as a commitment to the relationship rather than an act of weakness.
  • Be honest. Only apologize for things you truly feel responsible for; don't apologize just to make an unpleasant situation go away.
  • Say it in writing if a personal confrontation is just way too scary.
  • Give the other person some time to sort out his or her feelings - don't be discouraged if you aren't completely forgiven the moment you apologize.

Put the Glass Down!

Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He held it up for all to see & asked the students 
"How much do you think this glass weighs?"
'50gms!' ..... '100gms!' .....'125gms' ...the students answered.
 

"I really don't know unless I weigh it," said the professor, "but, my question is: 
What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?"
'Nothing' ..the students said.
'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the professor asked.
 
'Your arm would begin to ache' said one of the student
"You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?"
"Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress & paralysis & have to go to hospital for sure!"
.. ventured another student & all the students laughed
"Very good. 
But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?"
asked the professor.
'No'. Was the answer.
"Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress?" 
The students were puzzled.
"What should I do now to come out of pain?" asked professor again.
"Put the glass down!" said one of the students
"Exactly!" said the professor.

Life's problems are something like this.
Hold it for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK.
Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache. 
Hold it even longer & they begin to paralyze you. You will not be able to do anything.
It's important to think of the challenges or problems in your life, 
But EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to 'PUT THEM DOWN' at the end of every day before You go to sleep.. 

That way, you are not stressed, you wake up every day fresh &strong & can handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way!
Remember to

'
PUT THE GLASS DOWN !'
