Growing Old......

My dear girl, the day you see I'm getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I'm going through. If when we talk, I repeat the same thing a thousand times, don't interrupt to say: "You said the same thing a minute ago"... Just listen, please. Try to remember the times when you were little and I would read the same story night after night until you would fall asleep.

When I don't want to take a bath, don't be mad and don't embarrass me. Remember when I had to run after you making excuses and trying to get you to take a shower when you were just a girl?

When you see how ignorant I am when it comes to new technology, give me the time to learn and don't look at me that way ... remember, honey, I patiently taught you how to do many things like eating appropriately, getting dressed, combing your hair and dealing with life's issues every day... the day you see I'm getting old, I ask you to please be patient, but most of all, try to understand what I'm going through.

If I occasionally lose track of what we're talking about, give me the time to remember, and if I can't, don't be nervous, impatient or arrogant. Just know in your heart that the most important thing for me is to be with you.

And when my old, tired legs don't let me move as quickly as before, give me your hand the same way that I offered mine to you when you first walked. When those days come, don't feel sad... just be with me, and understand me while I get to the end of my life with love. I'll cherish and thank you for the gift of time and joy we shared. With a big smile and the huge love I've always had for you, I just want to say, I love you ... my darling daughter/ daughter-in-law

DEATH........ WHAT A WONDERFUL WAY TO EXPLAIN IT !!!!!

      A sick man turned to his doctor,
      as he was preparing to leave the examination room and said,
      "Doctor, I am afraid to die.
      Tell me what lies on the other side."

      Very quietly, the doctor said, "I don't know."

      "You don't know?
      You, a Christian man, do not know what is on the other side?"

      The doctor was holding the handle of the door;
      on the other side came a sou nd of scratching and whining,
      and as he opened the door,
      a dog sprang into the room
      and leaped on him with an eager show of gladness.

      Turning to the patient, the doctor said,
      "Did you notice my dog?
      He's never been in this room before.
      He didn't know what was inside.
      He knew nothing except that his master was here,
      and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear.
      I know little of what is on the other side of death,
      but I do know one thing...
      I know my Master is there and that is enough."

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 only 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 only 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?

Be Happy   

"What do you think she shouted?"

A cruise ship met with an incident at sea, on the ship was a pair of couple, after having made their way to the lifeboat, they realized that there was only space for one person left.

At this moment, the man pushed the woman behind him and jumped onto the lifeboat himself.

The lady stood on the sinking ship and shouted one sentence to her husband.

The teacher stopped and asked, "What do you think she shouted?"

Most of the students excitedly answered, "I hate you! I was blind!"

Now, the teacher noticed a boy who was silent throughout, she got him to answer and he replied, "Teacher, I believe she would have shouted - Take care of our child!"

The teacher was surprised, asking "Have you heard this story before?"

The boy shook his head, "Nope, but that was what my mum told my dad before she died to disease".

The teacher lamented, "The answer is right".

The cruise sunk, the man went home and brought up their daughter single-handedly.

Many years later after the death of the man, their daughter found his diary while tidying his belongings.

It turns out that when parents went onto the cruise ship, the mother was already diagnosed with a terminal illness.
At the critical moment, the father rushed to the only chance of survival.

He wrote in his diary, "How I wished to sink to the bottom of the ocean with you, but for the sake of our daughter, I can only let you lie forever below the sea alone".

The story is finished, the class was silent.

The teacher knows that the student has understood the moral of the story, that of the good and the evil in the world, there are many complications behind them which are hard to understand.

Which is why we should never only focus on the surface and judge others without understanding them first.

Those who like to pay the bill, does so not because they are loaded but because they value friendship above money.

Those who take the initiative at work, does so not because they are stupid but because they understand the concept of responsibility.

Those who apologise first after a fight, does so not because they are wrong but because they value the people around them.

Those who are willing to help you, does so not because they owe you any thing but because they see you as a true friend...

The ...E... life !!!!!

In this world of E-mails, E-ticket, E-paper, E-recharge, E-transfer and the latest E-Governance...

Never Forget "E-shwar ( God )" who makes e-verything e-asy for e-veryone e-veryday.

"E" is the most Eminent letter of the English alphabet.

Men or Women don't exist without "E".

House or Home can't be made without "E".

Bread or Butter can't be found without "E".

"E" is the beginning of "existence" and the end of "trouble."

It's not at all in 'war' but twice in 'peace'.

It's once in 'hell' but twice in 'heaven'.

"E" represented in 'Emotions'

Hence, all emotional relations like Father, Mother, Brother, Sister,wife & friends have 'e' in them.

"E" also represents 'Effort' & 'Energy'
Hence to be 'Better' from good both "e" 's are added.

Without "e", we would have no love, life, wife, friends or hope

& 'see', 'hear', 'smell', or 'taste' as 'eye' 'ear', 'nose' & 'tongue' are incomplete without "e".

Hence GO with "E" but without E-GO.

The ...E... life !!!!!

A Mother

In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the other: “Do you believe in life after delivery?” The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.”
“Nonsense” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?”   

The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.”

The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.”

The second insisted, “Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.”

The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover if there is life, then why has no one has ever come back from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery there is nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.”

“Well, I don’t know,” said the second, “but certainly we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.”

The first replied “Mother? You actually believe in Mother? That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?”

The second said, “She is all around us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her this world would not and could not exist.”

Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.”

To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and you really listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.” 

The Race...

It was a Sports Stadium...

8 boys were standing on a track for racing.

Ready ! Steady ! Bang !           

At the crack of the Pistol all the boys started running.

Hardly, had they covered 10 to 15 steps, when
1 boy slipped & fell.

He started crying as he was hurt by the fall.

When the other 7 Boys heard him, all of them STOPPED running..

STOOD for a while, turned BACK & RAN towards him.

All the 7 Boys LIFTED the Boy, pacified him,
joined hands together, walked together & reached the WINNING Post.

The Officials were shocked.

Many Eyes were filled with tears.

It happened at the Village School, and

the Race was conducted by the Institute of Mental Health...

All participants were Mentally RETARDED.

What did they teach us ?
Teamwork, Humanity, Sportsman spirit, Love, Care, & Equality..

We Surely can NEVER Do this because.......

We have Brains....  Ego... and Attitude
