"Those are the same stars, and that is the same moon, that look down upon your brothers and sisters, and which they see as they look up to them, though they are ever so far away from us, and each other."

The good deed you do today For a brother or sister in need Will come back to you some day For humanity's a circle in deed.

Our siblings. They resemble us just enough to make all their differences confusing, and no matter what we choose to make of this, we are cast in relation to them our whole lives long.

To the outside world, we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other's hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys.

"Sisters is probably the most competitive relationship within the family, but once sisters are grown, it becomes the strongest relationship."

Sisters share the scent and smells... the feel of a common childhood."

Valentine Day SMS

2009-01-11T02:03:00.000-08:00

Luv meanz to see someone with closed eyez,
to miss some1 in crowd,
2 find some1 in every thought,
to live 4 some1, luv some1, but sure tht sum1 is ONLY one!

Love isn't a decision, it's a feeling. If we could decide who to love, then, life would be much simpler, but then less magical.

Aapki muskan hamari kamzori hai, Keh na pana hamari majburi hai, Aap kyon nahin samajhte is khamoshi ko, Kya khamoshi ko zuban dena zaruri hai?

Ikraar mein shabdon ki ehmiyat nahi hoti,
Dil ke jazbaat ki awaaz nahi hoti,
Aankhen bayaan kar deti hain dil ki daastan,
Mohabbat lafzon ki mohtaaz nahi hoti!

Kitna bhi chaho na bhol paoge
Kitna bhi chaho na bhol paoge
Hum se jitna dur jao nazdik pao ge
Humein mita sakte ho to mita do
yaadein meri, magar..
kya sapno se juda kar pao ge humein.

Yaadon ki parchayee mein ab to aaye tera hi cehra
Tu abhi tak iss baat se hai anjaan main hoon deewana tera
Izhaar-e-mohabaat karne to bahot baar socha maine
Par har baar tere hi aks ne roka hai rastaa mera

2009-01-11T02:01:00.000-08:00

If i reached for your hand , will u hold it ?
If i hold out my arms, will u hug me ?
If i go for your lips, will u kiss me ?
If i capture ur heart , will u love me ??

When i look at you,
i cannot deny there is God,
cause only God could have created some one
as wonderful n beautiful as you

I dream about you evey night
I shiver when your in sight
I long to hold you close n tight
I wanna be there with all my might
I m just hoping I'm the girl whos right

If Your asking if I Need U the answer is 4Ever..
If Your askin if I'll Leave U the answer is Never..
If Your askin what I value the Answer is U..
if Your askin if I love U the answer is I do.

Khushi se dil ko aabad karna...
Aur gham ko dil se azad karna,
Hamari bus itni gujarish hai ke hame bhi
Din me ek baar YAAD karna...

Main Story Behind Dashera & Diwali biggest light festival in india comming soon

2008-08-31T00:31:00.000-07:00

All Hindu festivals are according to the Hindu lunisolar calendar, and so, in the solar calendar of the west, it varies from year to year within a month. The months of autumn, which according to the Hindu calendar are Ashvina and Kartika (September-October-November), are packed with Hindu festivals of which Dashera and Diwali are the most widely observed. This period marks the season of celebration following the harvests of summer and the rainy season. Many schools are on vacation for this period to celebrate the Dashera-Diwali festivals. The stories of Dashera and Diwali are our focus today.

Immediately prior to the nine-day worship (Navaratri) of Durga, is the fortnight of ancestral worship or tarpan, called Peetri Paksha. It starts on the first day of moon in Ashvin and ends on the new moon day. Devout Hindus remember their ancestors and offer water and black sesame seed (til) with prayers for these fifteen days. The last day, the new moon day, is called Mahalaya.

The present day Durga Puja, celebrated in autumn, was introduced by Rama who worshipped Durga for nine days in order to defeat Ravana, the demon king of Shri Lanka. Ravana was slain on the tenth day which is now commemorated by the celebration of Dashera. Hence, in many parts of India, the story of Rama (Ramayana) is enacted as Ramlila for a month prior to Dashera and the effigy of Ravana is burnt on the Dashera day with the display of fireworks. Dashera is the occasion for Hindus to exchange presents and messages of good will. Apart from religious prayers, it is a season full of communal festivities.

Now let us hear the story of Durga. Long ago, there was a powerful demon king named Mahishashur (a demon who could take the shape of a buffalo). Mahishashur prayed to Brahma, one of the forms of supreme power, and sought his blessings to become immortal. Brahma said "Mahisha, once born, one must die. I cannot grant immortality." However, according to his desire, Brahma blessed Mahisha that he will be killed only by a woman. Mahishashur, with his extraordinary power, very soon drove away the gods from heaven and took over the throne of their king Indra. Finally, the gods joined their forces to create the goddess Durga. Durga later killed Mahishashur and brought peace back to earth. According to mythology, Durga was married to Shiva, the god of destruction. She has four children - Luxmi, the goddess of wealth, Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge, Kartikeya, the god of war and the elephant-headed younger son Ganesh the god of success and remover of obstacles. Durga comes to the earth every year for ten days, along with her four children, to meet her people on the earth where she was born. The images are made of clay or paper maché and decorated with silk sarees, and jewels. Goddess Durga is depicted slaying the demon Mahishashur while riding a lion. On the back drop of the image is the picture of Shiva in the center surrounded by other gods and goddesses. The image is worshipped on the 7th, 8th, and 9th days of Navaratri. On the tenth day, or Dashera, the images are immersed into a river symbolizing the return of Durga and her children to Lord Shiva. On the tenth day begins Vijaya Dashami or Dashera. This is the day when Ram had slain Ravana. During Durga Puja, Hindus celebrate the victory of mother goddess Durga or divine forces, over Mahishashur, the evil forces.

Diwali follows Dashera. It is a spectacular religious festival held in late autumn. The celebration takes place on the darkest night of autumn, the new moon day (Amabashya), at the beginning of Kartika (October-November), eighteen days after the celebration of Dashera. Diwali means cluster of lights. On the Diwali day, rows of lamps decorate the houses and presents are exchanged.

Diwali, in the north of India, is associated with the coronation of Rama when he returned to Ayodhya (in Uttar Pradesh) after vanquishing the demon Ravana on the day of Dashera. Ram had been in exile for fourteen years and his followers were pleased to see his return to Ayodhya. They welcomed him by decorating their houses with lamps and rejoiced with the display of fireworks at night. Diwali is seen as a renewal of life. Houses are painted and new purchases are made at this time. In Maharasthra, Diwali is seen as a festival for warding off king Bali, the ruler of the underworld. In the western part of India, many Hindus believe that the souls of their ancestors come to visit their homes during the new moon day of Diwali. Lamps are lit to guide the way of the departed souls. In Gujrat, Diwali is associated mostly with the worship of Luxmi, the goddess of wealth. It is believed Luxmi on this day emerges to bring prosperity to the world. Luxmi puja in Gujrat lasts for five days which starts with Dhanterash, the worshipping of wealth. The fourth day is Gujratís New Years Day. Luxmi is believed to visit the homes that are well lit. So, families decorate their houses with light, flowers and paper chains. It is believed that lighting the new lamps will drive away evil and poverty from the world and heralds better times. In the eastern part of India, especially in West Bengal, Luxmi puja is celebrated five days after Dashera, on the full moon day (Purnima). On the following new moon day (Amabashya), coinciding with Diwali, goddess Kali is worshipped. Kali has a terrifying look. She destroys all evils. Lamps are lit in her honor, and in return, she promises a renewal of life and justice on earth.

Four days after Diwali is the brotherís day or Bhiadweej (or Bhaiphonta). Sisters put sandalwood mark on brotherís forehead praying to Yama, the god of death, to grant a long and prosperous life for her brother.

Lord Krishna Positive message for all perosn in the world...

2008-07-26T04:23:00.000-07:00

No matter what conditions you encounter in life, your right is only to the works - not to the fruits thereof. You should not be impelled to act for selfish reasons, nor should you be attached to inaction.
-Bhagavad Gita 2.47

He who sees me in all things, and all things in me, is never far from me, and I am never far from him.
-Lord Krishna from Chapter 6, Bhishma(P. Lal); also part of Bhagavad Gita

Wherever there is Krishna, the Lord of Yoga, and wherever there is Arjun, the wielder of the bow, there will indeed abide, prosperity, victory, glory, and righteousness; this is my firm conviction.
-Bhagavad Gita 18.78

Quotes about life inspiration.... by Swami Vivekananda

2008-07-26T04:21:00.000-07:00

1> God is merciful to those whom He sees struggling heart and soul for realization. But remain idle, without any struggle, and you will see that His grace will never come.

2> We must have friendship for all; we must be merciful toward those that are in misery; when people are happy, we ought to be happy; and to the wicked we must be indifferent. These attitudes will make the mind peaceful.

3> Purity, Patience, and Perseverance are the three essentials to success and, above all, Love.

4> Every action that helps us manifest our divine nature more and more is good; every action that retards it is evil.

5> Great work requires great and persistent effort for a long time. Character has to be established through a thousand stumbles.

Of seniors down a highway
When he is tapped on his shoulder by a little old lady.
She offers him a handful of peanuts,

Which he gratefully munches up.

After about 15 minutes, she taps him on his shoulder

Again and she hands him another handful of peanuts.

She repeats this gesture about five more times.

When she is about to hand him another batch again

He asks the little old lady,

"why don`t you eat the peanuts yourself?".

"We can't chew them because we've no teeth", she replied.

The puzzled driver asks,

"Why do you buy them then?"

The old lady replied,

"We just love the chocolate around them."

People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived,

reclaimed, and redeemed;

Never throw out anybody.

Remember, If you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm.

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears,

The figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes,

Because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.

The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole,

But true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.

It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows.

And the beauty of a woman, with passing years, only grows!

cute love story love has no reason

2008-02-28T07:30:00.000-08:00

Lady: Why do you like me..? Why do you love me?

Man : I can't tell the reason. But I really like you...

Lady : You can't even tell me the reason... how can you say you like me? How can you say you love me?

Man : I really don't know the reason, but I can prove that I love you.

Lady : Proof? No! I want you to tell me the reason. My friend's boyfriend can tell her why he loves her but not you!

Man : Ok..ok!!! Erm... because you are beautiful,

because your voice is sweet,

because you are caring,

because you are loving,

because you are thoughtful,

because of your smile,

because of your every movements.

The lady felt very satisfied with the man's answer.

********

Unfortunately, a few days later, the Lady met with an accident and went into the coma stage.

The Guy then placed a letter by her side, and here is the content:

Darling,

Because of your sweet voice that I love you...Now can you talk? No! Therefore I cannot love you.

Because of your care and concern that I like you...Now that you cannot show them, therefore I cannot love you.

Because of your smile, because of your every movement that I love you...Now can you smile? Now can you move?

No, therefore, I cannot love you.

If love needs a reason, like now, there is no reason for me to love you anymore.

Does love need a reason? NO!

Therefore, I still love you...And love doesn't need a reason

With love always,

Forever yours.

*******

Relationships are hard to handle......might even seem impossible at times.
There will be many fights and many quarrels,

many disagreements and many tears.....

The easiest thing would be to give up.

But if we spent half the energy we use in fighting with each other,

and spend that energy in fighting to keep the relationship strong, then that is love……

Remember, in a relationship, giving up is not the solution Disagreements, fights and quarrels will always be there.

But you must always fight harder to stay together.

Some fights are truly worth fighting!

Happy International Woman's Day

2008-02-28T07:28:00.000-08:00

Having begun as a recognition of Women's struggle to make their workplaces better, International Women's Day celebrates Woman, all that they do, and their achievements.It honours those who began the struggle and those who continue to work for change and recognition of all the efforts to improve the lives of Women, both locally and globally.
The History

International Women's Day (8 March) is an occasion marked by women's groups around the world. This date is also commemorated at the United Nations and is designated in many countries as a national holiday. When women on all continents, often divided by national boundaries and by ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic and political differences, come together to celebrate their Day, they can look back to a tradition that represents at least nine decades of struggle for equality, justice, peace and development.

International Women's Day is the story of ordinary women as makers of history; it is rooted in the centuries-old struggle of women to participate in society on an equal footing with men. In ancient Greece, Lysistrata initiated a sexual strike against men in order to end war; during the French Revolution, Parisian women calling for "liberty, equality, fraternity" marched on Versailles to demand women's suffrage.

The idea of an International Women's Day first arose at the turn of the century, which in the industrialized world was a period of expansion and turbulence, booming population growth and radical ideologies. Following is a brief chronology of the most important events:

if u can stay calm while every1 else is goin mad ... u probably havnt completely understood the situation!

FRIENDS are like stars…you do not ALWAYS SEE them but you know they are always there!..

A Person Who Asks A Question Is A Fool For Five Minutes. A Person Who Doesn't Is A Fool Forever

Dont b afraid 2 expose yourself.Reach out and tell sum1 wot they mean 2 u coz when u decide its the right time it might b 2 late!

Sumtimes its harder 2 say no wen u really mean yes.Its hard 2 close ur eyes wen u really want 2 see.But the hardest thing 2 do is to let go wen u want to stay

What do you do when the only person who can stop you crying, is the person who makes you cry in the first place?

You might regret what you do- but you'll you regret what you don't do SO much more

2 let go doesnt mean 2 stop carin.2 let go is to learn theres sumthin beyond.2 let go means acceptin reality.2 let go is lovin more coz u only want the best.

If you are the flame you can't be burned

Yesterday is history tomorrow is a mystery.today is a gift that is why we call it the present!

Intelligence is like a river. The deeper it is the less noise it makes

Annoying Boy on Bus

2008-02-04T08:34:00.000-08:00

A little kid walks into a city bus and sits right behind the driver and starts yelling, "If my dad was a bull and my mom a cow I'd be a little bull."

The driver starts getting mad at the noisy kid, who continues with, If my dad was an elephant and my mom a girl elephant I would be a little elephant."

The kid goes on with several animals until the bus driver gets angry and yells at the kid, ''What if your dad was gay and your mom was a prostitute?!''

Smart Student's Question

2008-02-04T08:31:00.000-08:00

The college professor had just finished explaining an important research project to his class. He emphasized that this paper was an absolute requirement for passing his class, and that there would be only two acceptable excuses for being late. Those were a medically certifiable illness or a death in the student's immediate family.
A "smart" student in the back of the classroom waved his hand and spoke up. "But what about extreme sexual exhaustion, professor?"

As you would expect, the class exploded in laughter. When the students had finally settled down, the professor froze the young man with a glaring look. "Well," he responded, "I guess you'll just have to learn to write with your other hand."

india republic day today 26 january 2008 , i am proud , i am an indian.....

2008-01-24T23:14:00.000-08:00

The independent republic of India is officially born today, after nearly 100 years of British rule.

A public holiday has been declared throughout the country, and millions of people have been celebrating with processions and ceremonies to hoist the new flag of India for the first time.

India has been running her own affairs since the actual transfer of power from British to Indian hands on 15 August 1947.

But today's ceremonies mark the cutting of her last ties to Britain. India's first president has been sworn in, replacing the King as the country's head of state, and the new constitution ratified.

ORIGIN OF REPUBLIC DAY IN INDIA

2008-01-12T02:09:00.000-08:00

When India gained independence, the country was lost in a world preoccupied with the destruction brought about by the Second World War. All of a sudden, we were responsible for everything we did. Piggy-backing on another country's mistakes would no longer work. The Indian National Congress in those days could effectively speak for the people of India, but it was not an elected body. There was not even a constitution to guide us.

The Indian Constituent Assembly met on December 9, 1946. The Assembly appointed a number of committees to report on the various aspects of the proposed constitution. The Indian Constitution was finalised with 395 Articles and eight Schedules, and was adopted by the Constituent Assembly on November 26, 1949. The Indian Republic officially came into being on January 26, 1950.

January 26 was not some random date picked out of the calendar. It was on this date in 1927, that the Indian National Congress, then fighting its non-violent war for freedom, voted for complete independence as against 'dominion status'. It was the date when members of the INC took the pledge to work towards a 'sovereign democratic republic' of India.

After the Constitution was written and adopted on November 1949, January 26 the following year was chosen as the day when India would finally arrive as a nation, complete with the lengthiest and the most detailed constitution in the world. With this, Republic Day became the most important day in the history of India. Indeed, India had become a geographical entity on August 15, 1947, but it was on January 26, 1950 that it became a nation in the true sense, with a constitution and elected representatives of the people.

REPUBLIC DAY OF INDIA 26 january

2008-01-12T02:00:00.000-08:00

Republic Day is India's great national festival. It is celebrated every year on January 26, in New Delhi with great pomp and pageant and in capitals of the States, as well as at other headquarters and important places with patriotic fervour.

It was the Lahore Session of the Indian National Congress at midnight of December 31, 1929 - January 1, 1930, that the Tri-Colour Flag was unfurled by the nationalists and a pledge taken that every year on January 26, the "Independence Day" would be celebrated and that the people would unceasingly strive for the establishment of a Sovereign Democratic Republic of India. The professed pledge was successfully redeemed on 26 January, 1950, when the Constitution of India framed by the Constituent Assembly of India came into force, although the Independence from the British rule was achieved on August 15, 1947.

Christmas gift suggestions:
To your enemy, forgiveness.
To an opponent, tolerance.
To a friend, your heart.
To a customer, service.
To all, charity.
To every child, a good example.
To yourself, respect.

Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love!

Christmas is doing a little something extra for someone.

And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.

A lovely thing about Christmas is that it's compulsory, like a thunderstorm, and we all go through it together.

Never worry about the size of your Christmas tree. In the eyes of children, they are all 30 feet tall.

Unless we make Christmas an occasion to share our blessings, all the snow in Alaska won't make it "white".

There's nothing sadder in the world than to awake Christmas morning and not be a child.

The only blind person at Christmastime is he who has not Christmas in his heart.

He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree.

I love Christmas. I receive a lot of wonderful presents I can't wait to exchange.

Aren't we forgetting the true meaning of Christmas? You know, the birth of Santa.

SIN BEYOND REDEMPTION

2007-11-19T23:03:00.000-08:00

The blind desire for the baby boy,
Brings them to the sound machine,
Blinking dot on the screen,
Is the heart, which can’t even scream.

The pious Hippocratic oath,
To protect the human life,
Is defeated,
When the protector stands affront,
The mother to be, of the female baby to be.

As the instruments make the tinkling sound,
He wears the gloves for assault,
The baby asleep in the womb,
The womb,
Which will become the tomb, from now.

The blood effusing out from the vault,
Smears the surgeon’s hand,
Testifies the murderous attack,
On the baby, still to be born.

Saith the (in) human desire,
Kill the baby for the son,
Do they heal the humanity,
Or do they commit the feticide for money.

MINDLESS THOUGHTS

2007-11-19T23:02:00.000-08:00

Practice makes a person perfect – but nobody is perfect………

So why to practice????

If its true that we are here to help others……

Then what exactly are others here for????

Since light travels faster than sound…….

Similarly people appear bright till the time you hear them speak.

Money is not everything

There is MasterCard and Visa.

Love the neighbor…..

But don’t get caught.

Behind every successful man there is a woman

And behind every unsuccessful man there are ‘two women’

Every man should marry……

After all, happiness is not only thing in life.

The wise never marry……

And those who marry may become otherwise.

Love is photogenic……

It needs darkness to develop

Your future depends on your dreams….

So go and sleep.

Hard work never kills anybody…..

But why take risk????

Work fascinates me…..

I can look at it for hours!!!

A dress is a like barbed fence

It protects the premises without restricting the view

The more you learn, the more you know

The more you know the more you forget

The more you forget the less you know

So why you learn???

A WORLD – WIDE SURVEY

VALUES OF GOOD LIFE

2007-11-19T22:58:00.000-08:00

More quantity, less quality

We write more, but learn less, plan, more, but accomplish less.

We have learned, to rush, but not to wait.

We have higher incomes, but lower morale.

More food but less appeasement, more types of food, but less nutrition.

More acquaintances, but fewer friends.

More efforts, but less success.

We build better computers to hold more information

To produce more copies than ever, but have less communication

We have become long on quantity but short on quality

These are the times of fast foods & slow digestion

Tall men & short characters,

Steep profits & Shallow relationships

These are days of fancier incomes, but broken homes.

It is a time there is much in the show window & very little in the stockroom.

Indeed, it is all very true! Even I did not believe it! However, it is the eternal truth!

Think about it…………………………

Read, it again! It may not make a difference

However, we may end up living better!

GOD IS ALWAYS WITH YOU

2007-11-19T22:57:00.001-08:00

One night, I had a dream. I was walking along the beach with God and across the skies flashed scenes from my life. In each scene, I noticed two set of footprint in the sands, and to my surprise, I noticed that along the path of my life there was only one sets of footprint, and I noticed that it was the lowest and saddest time in my life. I asked God about it, “God you said once, I decided to follow you; you will walk with me all the way. However, I noticed that during the most troublesome time in my life, there was only one set of footprint. I do not understand why you left my side when I needed you most”. God said, “My precious child, I never left you during your time of trial. Where you see only one set of footprint, I was carrying you”.

The Nature Of the man

2007-11-19T22:56:00.001-08:00

Man comes into this without his consent and leaves it against his will.

On earth, he is misjudged and misunderstood.

In infancy he is an angel, in boyhood, he is a devil, in manhood he is a fool.

If he has a wife and a Family, he is a champion. If he is a Bachelor, he is a bachelor, he is
Inhuman and mean.

If he enters a public house, he is Drunkard.

If he steps out, he is Temperate, Fanatic and Miser.

If he is Rich, he has all the luck in the world and he is a Crook.

If he has Brains, he is considered to be smart.

If he goes to Religious place he is a Hypocrite, if he stays away he is Sinful.

If he gives in Charity into the world, everyone wants to kiss him, before he goes out of
this world, every one wants to kick him.

If he dies Young, there was great Future for him.

If lives to a ripe Old Age every body hopes he has made a will capital.

It is therefore impossible to please everybody, so do your duty and be fearless.

Use your own common sense and if you make a mistake, its better than doing nothing.

So keep smiling as no one wants to hear about your troubles or better still, nobody wants
anything about your troubles.

RISKS

2007-11-19T22:55:00.000-08:00

To laugh is to risk appearing fool;

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental;

To reach out for another is to risk involvement;

To expose your feeling is to risk exposing your true self;

To love is to risk not being loved in return;

To place your ideas, your dream before the crowd is to risk the loss;

To live is to risk dying;

To hope is to risk failure;

To try at all is to risk failure;

However, risk we must.

Because the greatest hazards to life is to risk nothing;

The man who risks nothing

Does nothing…have anything…is nothing…?

He may avoid suffering...but he simply cannot learn,

Feel, change, grow, love or live.

Chained by his certitudes, he is a slave.

He has forfeited freedom.

Only the person who risk can be called a free man.

Fast Life.

2007-11-19T22:51:00.000-08:00

In era of fast life, every body wants to, over take others. The same concept applied to our driving also, specially the youngsters. They enjoy driving rashly, ignoring the traffic rules, which sometimes proves fatal. Here are few messages for those people who enjoy fast and rash driving.

• If you drive like hell, you will soon reach there.

• If is better to reach home late rather reaching heaven before time.

• If you do not wear helmets, you might become hell-mate.

• Rash driving may lead to crash bones & cash bills.

• There is no shortcut to hospital from here had better follow traffic rules.

• Driving fast as the ball was hitter by baseball bat will lead you to hospital bistre.

Things you would NOT want to see happen at the ATM

2007-11-19T22:50:00.002-08:00

• You go to get a balance inquiry, and instead of printing out a receipt the screen says: "Not worth wasting paper", and ejects your card. You try to get a balance inquiry, and the screen says: "Account not found." and keeps your card.

• You insert your card, and try to get some cash, and the ATM laughs and spits out your shredded card.

• You withdraw some money to pay some bills, count it, and the screen says: "What, you thought there was some EXTRA there? HA!", and ejects your card clear across the room.

• You think you've got $100 in your account and go to take out $50, and the screen says: "Not in this lifetime." and laughs as you bang on the machine, trying desperately to get your card back that the machine has taken.

• You go to the ATM, and there's a picture of you a-la-"Most Wanted" staring forlornly at the ATM camera with a caption that reads: "Wanted for trying to get water from a dry well."

Approximately ten excuses for not doing homework:

2007-11-19T22:50:00.001-08:00

• I accidentally divided by zero and my paper burst into flames.

• I could only get arbitrarily close to my textbook. I couldn't actually reach it.

• I have the proof, but there isn't room to write it in this margin.

• I was watching the World Series and got tied up trying to prove that it converged.

• I have a solar powered calculator and it was cloudy.

• I locked the paper in my trunk but a four-dimensional dog got in and ate it.

• I couldn't figure out whether I am the square of negative one or I am the square root of negative one.

• I took time out to snack on a doughnut and a cup of coffee, and then I spent the rest of the night trying to figure which one to dunk.

• I could have sworn I put the homework inside a Klein bottle, but this morning I couldn't find it.

Excuse to smoke

2007-11-19T22:48:00.000-08:00

Two teens had been lovers for a few weeks, but the boy was
always after the girl to quit smoking. One afternoon, she lit up
after some love making, and he said, "You really ought to quit."

She, getting tired of his nagging, said, "I really enjoy a good
cigarette after sex."

He replied, "But they stunt your growth." She asked if he ever
smoked, and he replied that he had never.

Smiling and lifting her gaze to his groin, she said, "So, what's
your excuse then?"

True Love

2007-11-19T22:47:00.002-08:00

Three men were drinking at a bar -- a doctor, an attorney
and a biker. As the doctor was drinking his white wine he said, "For
her birthday, I'm going to buy my wife a fur coat and a diamond ring.
This way, if she doesn't like the fur coat she will still love me
because she got a diamond ring."

As the attorney was drinking his martini he said, "For my wife's
birthday, I'm going to buy her a designer dress and a gold bracelet.
This way, if she doesn't like the dress she will still love me because
she got the gold bracelet."

As the biker was drinking his shots of whiskey he said, "I'm going to
buy my wife a T-shirt and a vibrator. This way, if she doesn't like
the T-shirt she can go fuck herself!"

Five Fingers

2007-11-19T22:45:00.000-08:00

A beautiful young woman marries this seventy year old bloke for his money.
On their wedding night she joyfully jumps into bed and he holds up five
fingers.

"Oh darling!" she squeals with delight, Does that mean five times?"

Nature of Hell

2007-11-19T22:44:00.001-08:00

A thermodynamics professor had written a take home exam for
his graduate students. It had one question: Is Hell exothermic (gives
off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Support your answer with a
proof."

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law
(gas cools off when it expands and heats up when it is compressed) or
some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So,
we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell and the rate
they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul
gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As
for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different
religions that exist in the world today.

Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their
religion, you will go to Hell. Since there are more than one of these
religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we
can project that all people and all souls go to Hell. With birth and
death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to
increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because
Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in
Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand as souls are
added. This gives two possibilities:

#1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase
until all Hell breaks loose.

#2. Of course, if Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase
of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until
Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Ms. Therese Banyan during my
Freshman year, "That it will be a cold night in Hell before I sleep
with you," and take into account the fact that I still have not
succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then #2 cannot be true,
and so Hell is exothermic.

The student got the only A.

Beep – beep

2007-11-19T22:42:00.000-08:00

The eighty-eight-year-old millionaire married an eighteen-year-
old country girl. He was quite content, but after a few weeks
she told him that she was going to leave him if she didn't get
some loving real soon. He had his chauffeured limousine take
him to a high-priced specialist who studied him and then gave
him a shot of spermatozoa. "Now look," the doctor said, "the
only way you're going to get it up is to say "beep," and then to
get it soft again, you say, "beep, beep."

"How marvelous," the old man said.

"Yes, but I must warn you," the doctor said," it's only going to
work three times before you die."

On his way home, the man decided he wasn't going to live
through three of them anyway, so he decided to waste one
trying it out. "Beep!" he said. Immediately he was UP. Satisfied,
he said, "beep, beep," and he was down again. He chuckled
with delight and anticipation. At that moment, a little yellow
Volkswagen pulled past his limousine and went "beep," and the
car in the opposite lane responded with "beep beep."

Alert to his jeopardy, the old man instructed his chauffeur to
"speed it up." He raced into the house as fast as he could for
his last great lay. "Honey," he shouted at her, "don't ask
questions. Just drop your clothes and hope into bed." Caught
up in his excitement, she did. He undressed nervously and
hurried in after her. Just as he was climbing into bed, he said,
"beep," and he was UP.

He was just starting to enter his young wife when she said,,
"What's all this "beep beep" shit?"

A Purple Heart

2007-11-19T22:41:00.000-08:00

A decorated war veteran, fresh off the bus, is looking for a place to
stay. He hears that room and board is available from the three old
spinsters at the edge of town, but is advised they are very picky in
letting strangers stay there. He decides to chance it, and limps on up to
the front door.

His knock is answered by Gladys. "What do you want, sonny?" she asks him.
"Ma'am, I'm just looking for a hot meal and a room for the night," he
answers.

The other two old spinsters gather around the door. "Who's out there?
Does he look decent?" they ask.

Gladys says, "It's a soldier, and he's got a Purple Heart on."

The other two spinsters giggle and say, "The hell with what color it is...
let him in!"

Poof! jokes

2007-11-19T22:22:00.000-08:00

An old lady sits on her front porch, rocking away the last days of her long life, when all of a sudden, a fairy godmother appears and informs her that she will be granted three wishes.

"Well, now," says the old lady, "I guess I would like to be really rich."

*** POOF *** Her rocking chair turns to solid gold.

"And, gee, I guess I wouldn't mind being a young, beautiful princess."

*** POOF *** She turns into a beautiful young woman.

"Your third wish?" asks the fairy godmother. Just then the old woman's cat wanders across the porch in front of them. "Ooh - can you change him into a handsome prince?" she asks.

*** POOF ***

There before her stands a young man more handsome than anyone could possibly imagine. She stares at him, smitten. With a smile that makes her knees weak, he saunters across the porch and whispers in her ear, "Bet you're sorry you had me neutered."

Palak Paneer Recipes

2007-11-19T21:45:00.000-08:00

Ingredients

2 - fresh palak bunches

5 - garlic flakes

1 inch - ginger piece

1 cup - boiled milk

250 gms - paneer

2 to 3 - medium sized onions

2 - green chilies

2 tbsp - olive oil

salt to taste

For Paneer:
1. Cut about 250 gms of paneer into cubes.
2. Heat oil at medium temperature and then fry the paneer pieces.
3. Once fried, add them into milk.
4. Milk helps to keep them soft.

For Palak:
1. Chop the cleanly washed palak, along with leaves.
2. Stem can be added only if they are tender.
3. Add the chopped palak and a small piece of ginger into the boiling milk (1 cup).
4. Let it boil till the palak becomes very soft.
5. Remove milk and keep palak aside to cool.
6. The significance of using milk is to remove the typical raw smell of palak that usually exists even after cooking whereas ginger adds extra flavour to it.
7. Cut 2 of medium sized onions and green chilies into thin long pieces.
8. Fry onion, chilies in little oil till onion turns golden brown in colour.
9. It is very important to add onions proportionately as excess of onion may result in loss of palak colour (usually palak looks black instead of green)

11. Fry the finely chopped onion in rest of the oil till its colour changes to golden brown.

Valentine's Gift Ideas

2007-11-19T21:37:00.000-08:00

Don't fall behind in the game of love. St. Valentine's Day is right around the corner, so start thinking about buying some gifts before it's too late. Stuck for ideas? That's not a problem, let help you.

It's marked in your calendar and this year, there's no way you're forgetting. Cupid has swung his bow and the arrow landed right at your bottom -- you're full-blown smitten with this woman, and you want to show her just that.

So what do you get her without having to ask your mother and sister for advice? Your woman keeps hinting that she wants a new pair of shoes, and she's continually saying that she's sick of her CDs and wants new ones. Are these clear hints that these are what you should be getting your Valentine this year?

Although this is an important date that signifies love and romance, there's no need to get stressed about what to get your sweetheart. Chances are you know her well enough, and even if you don't, there are always gifts that you just can't go wrong with. If you're lucky, you may even get the chance to win her a beautiful piece of jewelry that she'll treasure forever -- just read on to find out more.

So fear not -- check out these gifts that are sure to make her happy, and you even happier.

the usual

The simplest gifts that you can get your girlfriend for Valentine's Day are flowers, chocolates and teddy bears. And these are fine because it is possible to make a somewhat generic gift more personal.

Flowers
This may seem like a cop-out gift, but it doesn't have to be. Flowers can say a million words by the colored roses you choose, and the arrangements you prepare. Personally, I'd be impressed with a bouquet of a dozen red roses.

It's important to know what each colored rose represents, so you can impress her with your knowledge and high culture by telling her what they mean -- and in case you get one with the wrong message; and she does know what it means.

Here are the different meanings of rose colors, according to the Rose Information Bureau:

ROSE COLOR	MEANING OF COLORS
Red	"I love you," respect and courage.
White	"You're heavenly," reverence and humility, innocence and purity, secrecy and silence, and "I'm worthy of you."
Red + White	Unity
Pink	Grace and gentility
Deep pink	Gratitude and appreciation
Yellow	Joy and gladness
Red + Yellow	Cheerful, happy feelings
Coral or Orange	Enthusiasm and desire
Deep burgundy	Unconscious beauty
Pale colors	Sociability and friendship
Rosebuds	Beauty, youth, a heart innocent of love, "you are young and beautiful."
Red rosebuds	Pure and lovely
A single rose	Simplicity
A single rose in full bloom	"I love you" or "I love you still" (in this case, you can justify not getting a full bouquet)
Hybrid tea roses	"I'll remember you always"
Withered white roses	Beware of these! They stand for fleeting beauty and "you made no impression".
Two roses taped or wired together (to form one stem)	Engagement or coming marriage (don't do it unless you mean it).

Chocolate
A woman always appreciates a box of her favorite chocolates, so if you do opt for these, get her a flavor you know she likes and would appreciate (chocolate is said to be a fine substitute for sex for some women, so you may not want to get her too many). But if they're truffles, my personal favorite, then get them by the truckload.

Wine
If you know that she has a penchant for fine wine, then get her a bottle of her favorite stuff. From Amaretto to Zinfandel, there's sure to be a drink she prefers -- and you can't go wrong with a bottle of french wine. You can even get drunk together (while you have beer).

let's get personal

A teddy bear is always a safe option, but you may want to get her this combined with chocolates or flowers, so that she gets a nice gift that she can enjoy right away, and have something to cuddle with while you're not around.

These are more generic gifts that are perfect for newer couples, when you're really at a loss for what to get her, or if you know she really just appreciates chocolates or flowers.

But like I said, you can make these even more special by having them delivered to her at work (and make all her co-workers jealous) or send her twelve single roses all day, until she can make a bouquet herself. For example, leave a rose on her doorstep in the morning, have others delivered to her throughout the day, give one to her personally when you see her, and finally leave one on your bed if you know you're going back to your place after dinner, to really celebrate Valentine's Day.

Women also love to keep their flowers as a sentimental item, so you can have a bouquet of roses delivered to her, and then give her a beautiful vase, so that she can keep her flowers for a long-time once she dries them (women know how to dry their flowers, so don't even ask).

Sher-O-Shayri

2007-11-19T21:34:00.000-08:00

Chalanaa jinhe aayaa thaa pakad kar meri ungalee
woh log mere kad ke baraabar nikal aaye.
Us Shakhs ka sar kaatate hai yeh ahale kabeela
jo gaon ke sardaar se behatar nikal aaye.
Sach bolane ka maine iraadaa hee kiya
mehafil me har eah samta se khanjar nikal aaye.

main jaanta hoon kee yeh khawaab zhuthe hain aur yeh kusheeyaan adhuree hai,
magar zindaa rahane ke leeye mere dost , kuchch galatphamiyan zaruree hain.

Keetana kahaa thaa usasase ki daaman samet lein,
ab woh bhee mere saath pareshaneeyion mein hain.

Woh laash meri pairon tale rauond rahe the
zinhe bachaane ke liye main katla hua tha.

Koi phulon se payaar se karata hai , koi kaanton se payaar karata hai,
ham unse payyar karate hain , zo hamase payaar karata hai.

Sirf eak kadam uthaa tha galat rah-a-shouk mein,
manzilen tamaam umra muzhe dudnanti rahee.

Kuchch log khud apani koshish se , toofan kee zad se bachch neekale,
kuchch log magar mallahoan kee himmat ke sahaare doob gaye.

Dost hee dost ka saath deeya karate hain,
dost hee dost ko gam deeya karate hain.
Zindagee mein kuchch pal aaise bhee aate hain,
jab dost hee dost ko badnaam kiya karate hain.

Muddat ke baad eak tabassum meela hamen,
woh bhee kuchch yaisa talkh kee aansu nikal pade.

Main kabhi na muskuraata zo muzhe yeh ilam hota,
ki hazar gam milenge muzhe eak khushee ke pehale.

Yahee hai Zindagi... kuchch khawaab , chand ummeende,
Inahi khilloane se tum bhee bahal sako to chalo.

Armaan tamaam umara ke seene mein dafan hai
ham chalate feerate log mazaaron se kam nahin.

Baha gaya waqt ke sailab mein wo bhee aakhir,
eak lamha jo guzarane me tha sadiyon jaisa.

Ab dhool se ate huye rastoan pe hai safar
woh deen gaye ki kadamoan tale narm ghaas thi.

Har shaam ghar to laut ke aataa rahaa magar
ghar mein kabhi main khud ko mukammal na laa saka.

Main chup raha to aaur bhi galataphamiyian badi,
wo bhi suna hai usane jo maine kabhi kaha nahin.

Mera har din teri raat se achchaa hoga,
mera har sher tery jasabataa se achchaa hoga,
inahi niganhon se dekhana...... ye bewafa,
mera janaza teri baaraat se achchaa hoga.

Muzhe chchedane ko sakee ne deeya zo zaam ultaa
to kiya bahak ke maine use eak salaam ultaa.

Massom apne aap mein woh bhee bala ke the,
tohamat hamaare katla kee zin katilon pe thi.

Sahar foonkane walon yeh khayal bhi rakhana ,
doston ke ghar bhi hain dushamano ke basti mein.

AAz basti mein utha hai dhuan , to uthataa rahe,
aag keesake ghar lagi , pad lenge kal ke akhbaa mein.

Apno kee chaahaton ne bhee kya-kya deeye fareb,
rote rahe leepat ke har eak azanabi se ham.

Bas ,ab ye nakhudaa toofan me hamko doob jaane de
woh rote hain zinhe kashtee keenare pe uttaar aayee.

Bahut dinon ke se meela bhi to yun khaamosh raha
ki jaise meri tarah woh bhi akelaa hai.

Baton baton mein koi baat khatak jaati hai,
eak-do lafza hee begaanaa banaa deten hain.

Dil ke saahil pe kya sukoon milataa hai,
dekh aaye tadap samunder kee.

Mere yaar muzhe loot ke luate hain aabhi
mere dushman tuzhe is baar bhi der ho gayee.

Yeh muhabbat hai zara soch samazh kar rona
eak aansoo bhi zo toota to sunaayee dega.

Na thee jinko fikre-manzil unhe raas aayee manzil,
woh kadam kadam bhatake zo chale bahut sambhal ke.

Kisi ko ghar se nikalte hee meel gayee manzil,
koai hamari tarah umar bhar safar mein raha.

Jo chal ke aaten hain khud dushamon ke ghere mein,
faraar hone kaa woh raastaa bhee rakhaten hain.

Baha ke ley gayaa sailaab waqt kaa unako
zo baithe soch rahe the ki kya keeya jaaye.

Kal samazhata thaa jisako vidwaane hyat
haath mein patthar leeye woh paagalon ke saath hai.

Eak umra baad meela hai to muskura ke meel,
zo kuska ho chuke un aansunyo kee baat na kar.

Woh eak baar mare jinko thaa zidagi se pyaar,
zi zindagi se bhaagate the , roz marate the.

Azanabi kee tarah mil jayo keesi mod pe tum,
gujare kal ki har baat bhulaa di maine.

Iazahar par to pahale bhee pabandiyan na thee
lekin badon ke saamane ham bolten naa the.

Mumkin hai kal zubaano-kalam par ho bandishein
aankhon ko guftago kaa salikaa sikhayeeye.

Har mod pe guman hai kee apani galee hai yeh
kitane aazeeb mod hain zaalim ke shahar mein.

Zahan huyee hai zarurat muzhe sahaare ki,
huyen hain aap isee mode par zudaa muzhase.

Lafzon kee raftaa raftaa zarurat nahin rahi,
aab wo bhee sun liya hai zo usane kahaa na thaa.

Eas zindagi ko kaise kahun apani zindagi,
eak saans bhi nahin hai mere yekhteeyaar mein.

Eak dushare se woh bhi pareecheet na ho sake
zinake gharon ke beech mein deewaar bhi na thee.

Muddat huyee eas shahar mein rahate huye lekin
dil hai kee abhi tak to akelaa hee rahaa hai.

Gar-chiraango ki hifaazat unahen saunpee gayee
roshani ke eas shahar mein bas eak dhuyan rah jayegaa.

Kaisi mashaal leke chale andhere mein aap
zo roshani thee wo bhee salaamat nahin rahi.

Ban kamaron mein bhi sannaaton se ghabaraataa nahin,
saath mere silasile hain aapaki aawaz ke.

Bachche hoshiyaar hain , jamane kee khabar rakhaten hain,
bude kahate hain kee bachchon ko pataa hee kyaa hai.

Raatbhar chaand ki thandak main sulagataa hai badan
koi tanhai ke dojakh se nikaale muzhako.

Eak umar se hai deel main khandahar ki khaamoshee
eash dar pe dastakon kee sadaa chahiye muzhe.

Kuchchch samazh kar hi khudaa tuzhako kahaa hai waranaa
kaun see baat kahee eatane yakeen se hamane.

Suna hai woh bhee muhabbat kaa shouk rakhane lage
jinhe khabar hee nahin kuchch wafaa ke baare mein.

Do ghadi dil ke bahalane kaa sahaaraa bhee gayaa
liziye aaz tasavvoor mein bhee tanhayee hai.

Dekhane aaye to woh apani muhabbat kaa asar
kahane ko yeh hai ki aaye the ayaadat karane.

Jisane kuchch yehasaan kiya , eak bozh ham par rakh diya
sar se tinakaa kyaa uttaaraa , sar pe chchappar rakh diya.

Yeh bhee fareb hain darde-ashiqui ke
ham mar ke kyaa karenge , kyaa kar liya hai jee ke.

Faryaad kar rahee hai , yeh tarasee huyee nigaah
dekhe huye kisi ko bahut din gujar gaye.

Muddat ke baad usane jo kee prem kee nigaah
jee khush ho gayaa magar aansoo neekal pade.

Tukade tukade din beetaa , dhajji-dhajji raat meeli,
jisakaa jitanaa aanchal thaa , uatani hi saugaat meeli.

Ham AAH bhi karaten hain to ho jaate hain badanaam.
woh qatla bhi karate hain to charchaa nahin hotaa.

Eas sadagi pe kaun na mar jaaye ye khudaa
ladate hain aur haath main talwaar bhee nahin.

Tum unake waade ka jikra unase kyon karon gaalib
yeh kyaa kee tum kaho aur woh kahen kee yaad nahin.

Won chod gayaa muzhako to yakeen aayaa
koi bhee shakhsh jaruree nahin kisi ke liye.

Eak zara si baat par barson ke yaarane gaye
lekin itanaa to hua kuchch log pahachchaane gaye.

Abhi kamsin ho rahane do , kahin kho doge dil mera,
tumaahre hee liye rakhaa hai , le lena jawan hokar.

Friendship Quotes

2007-11-19T21:33:00.000-08:00

Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.

True friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable.

Don't flatter yourself that friendship authorizes you to say disagreeable things to your intimates. The nearer you come into relation with a person, the more necessary do tact and courtesy become.

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief

The greatest sweetener of human life is Friendship. To raise this to the highest pitch of enjoyment, is a secret which but few discover.

The friendship which is to be practised or expected by common mortals, must take its rise from mutual pleasure, and must end when the power ceases of delighting each other.

Friendship is the union of spirits, a marriage of hearts, and the bond thereof virtue

The friendship between me and you I will not compare to a chain; for that rains might rust, or the falling tree might break.

That friendship will not continue to the end which is begun for an end.

I cannot concentrate all my friendship on any single one of my friends because no one is complete enough in himself.

No one person can possibly combine all the elements supposed to make up what everyone means by friendship.

A simple friend thinks the friendship over when you have an argument. A real friend knows that it's not a friendship until after you've had a fight

A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out. Friendship is one mind in two bodies.

The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship.

Life without friendship is like the sky without sun.

Friendship often ends in love; but love in friendship--never

Friendship is a single soul living in two bodies.

A new friendship is like an unripened fruit - it may become either an orange or a lemon

Friendship with oneself is all-important because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

True friendship is never serene.

Friendship is a special kind of love.

The secret to friendship is being a good listener.

Nothing is great like friendship on earth, No jewel No pearl has got it's worth. No one except a friend can be trusted, Your life will never ever get rusted.

It is important for our friends to believe that we are unreservedly frank with them, and important to friendship that we are not.

When you're looking for a friend don't look for perfection, just look for friendship.

The holy passion of Friendship is of so sweet and steady and loyal and enduring a nature that it will last through a whole lifetime, if not asked to lend money.

True friendship starts the moment one person says to another, 'What? You too? I thought I was the only one!

Friendship is the golden thread that ties all hearts together

Friendship is a horizon-- which expands whenever we approach it.

Friendship improves happiness, and abates misery, by doubling our joys, and dividing our grief

Friendship is the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words.

Good friends must not always be together; It is the feeling of oneness when distant That proves a lasting friendship.

Romantic poems

The Key To Your Heart

Give me please the keys I need. The keys of your fair heart.
Let me find your love inside. Lets us never part.
Don’t lock me out I love you so. It’s more than I can take.
If I can’t open your fair heat my own heart will break.

What is the secret of your love? Tell me what to say.
What is the price of your hearts key? Tell me I will pay.
I have loved you from afar. You did not even know.
I saw you looking lovely. Saw you face aglow.

Let me now, please, come inside and love you tenderly.
Let me show you my true love. Show what love can be.
Let me open your fair heart. Give me now the key.
I can love you easily. Can you please love me?

Happy Valentine's Day My Love

Express our love in many ways
sometimes in the words we say
Always make it extra special
especially on Valentine's day

You're the sunshine of my life
when cloudy days appear
You bring joy in my heart
every time that you are near

My love for you grows deeper
with every passing day
So I'm send all you my love
on this very special day

Valentine Quotes

2007-11-19T21:29:00.000-08:00

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.
It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer;
no disease that enough love will not heal;
no door that enough love will not open;
no gulf that enough love will not bridge;
no wall that enough love will not throw down;
no sin that enough love will not redeem...
It makes no difference how deeply seated may be the trouble;
how hopeless the outlook; how muddled the tangle; how great the mistake.
A sufficient realization of love will dissolve it all.
If only you could love enough you would be
the happiest and most powerful being in the world...

Love is friendship set to music.

Of all the earthly music, that which reaches farthest into heaven is the beating of a truly loving heart

Love is a fire.
But whether it is going to warm your heart or burn down your house,
you can never tell."

Time is too slow for those who wait,
too swift for those who fear,
too long for those who grieve,
too short for those who rejoice,
but for those who love, time is eternity.

Gravitation can not be held responsible for people falling in love"
"How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics
so important a biological phenomenon as first love?"
"Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour.
Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute.
THAT'S relativity."

And now here is my secret, a very simple secret;
it is only with the heart that one can see rightly,
what is essential is invisible to the eye.

LOVE SMS for all overs

If you were a tear I would never dare to cry. I might lose you !

Heaven is the place where I would be, the day you would stop loving me!

It must have been a rainy day when you were born, but it wasn't really rain, the sky was crying because it lost his most beautifull angel...!

I miss you ... I need you ... More and more .... each day ... I love you ... more than words ... can ever say

If your heart was a prison, I would like to be sentenced for life

If a big fat man creeps into your bedroom one night and stuffs you into a bag, Then do not worry 'cause I told Santa I wanted you for christmas!

3 words made my heart beat faster, 3 words made my legs shake 3 words made my head spin, 3 words: I love you!

To the whole world you are somebody....but to somebody you are the whole world

If you are mad at me, you might just as well give me all my kisses back !

The world is so more beautiful with you around!

All beautiful moments do not last long, except in our memory.

A kiss that tells it all is seldomly a first edition.

Being in love is when she looks at you and says: I would like to be a cannibal.

Real love is the history of enormous patience.

Love stops being a joy when it stops being a secret.

a sweet little rabbit, just like you, because I love you!! kisses...

Grow old with me! ...... The best is yet to come...

the hardesd thing in life is watching someone you love , loving someone else

Tears in my eyes ......... Tears for you ...... Tears that realise how much I love you

Roses are red and the sky is blue ........ and I love you

Push down if you miss me... that is sweet of you ...... Very sweet indeed .... You can stop now ..... You really miss me, hé :-) .... me too xxx

In the morning I do not eat because I think of you, at noon I do not eat because I think of you, in the evening I do not eat because I think of you, at night I do not sleep because I am hungry.

Love is as a war, easy to start but hard to end..

When I think, I think of you, when I look, I want to look at you. I am crazy about you, even if it seems to become an obsession

I would like to be a tear, born in your eyes, alive passing your cheeks and dieing on your lips.

If a raindrop would mean ... I love you and you would ask me how much I love you, i bet you that it would …. rain all day !

They say that kids tell the truth, but am I a child too when I tell you that I love you enormously ?

Yesterday I did love you, tomorrow I will only think of you. You know whant... I love you!

people are children............life is love...........and you are sunshine.

A rose for you
Because I love you

don't love 1, don't love 2, but love the 1 who loves you

Hearts could only love for a while, feets could only walk for some miles, clothes won't 4ever be in style, but having U as my 'lover' is 4ever worthwhile....

t's a luvly feeling 2 stand on d top of a hill & feel on ur face d touch of d
cool soft wind, he same is d feeling wenevr I hear ur voice & c ur smyl.

There would come a time when we have to stop loving someone not because that
person has started hating us but because we found out that they'd be happier if
we let them go.

Days wil b spnt lyk yirs f dos days wil b spnt w/out u, smiles r lyk frwn f its

Luv not one, Luv not two Luv d one who luvs u true Luv not three, Luv not four
Luv d one who luvs u more Luv not five, Luv not six Luv d one who really sticks
Luv not seven, Luv not eight Luv d ne who really waits...

If I had the letter "HRT", I can add "EA" to get heart or a "U" and get "HURT".
But Id rather choose "U" and get "HURT" than to have a "HEART" without "U".

There would come a time when we have to stop loving someone not because that
person has started hating us but because we found out that they'd be happier if
we let tham go.

I would give up happines to never see you sad, I would give up eternity to be
with you always, I would give up my life so that yours would be new... I'd give
up everything... except you...

the pain inflicted, is because the good times (no matter how brief) make it all
worthwhile.

Unconditional Love - motivating story

2007-11-02T21:50:00.000-07:00

Keywords- Motivating story, beutiful thoughts, motivating story, touching words, love story

A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco.
"Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend I'd like to bring home with me."
"Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him."
"There's something you should know the son continued, "he was hurt pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mind and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to come live with us."
"I'm sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find somewhere to live."
"No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us."
"Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden on us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own."
At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building, they were told. The police believed it was suicide. The grief-stricken parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue to identify the body of their son. They recognized him, but to their horror they also discovered something they didn't know, their son had only one arm and one leg.

The parents in this story are like many of us. We find it easy to love those who are good-looking or fun to have around, but we don't like people who inconvenience us or make us feel uncomfortable. We would rather stay away from people who aren't as healthy, beautiful, or smart as we are. Thankfully, there's someone who won't treat us that way. Someone who loves us with an unconditional love that welcomes us into the forever family, regardless of how messed up we are.

A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she had stayed by his bedside every single day.
One day, when he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer. As she sat by him, he whispered, eyes full of tears,
" You know what? You have been with me through all the bad times.
When I got fired, you were there to support me.
When my business failed , you were there.
When I got shot, you were by my side.
When we lost the house, you stayed right here.
When my health started failing, you were still by my side... You know what?"

" What dear?",
she gently asked, smiling as her heart began to fill with warmth.

"I think you're bad luck!!!!!!!! !!!!!

What is happiness? u find and i am also find.......pls read and tell me.....

2007-10-22T08:34:00.001-07:00

Happiness means different things to different people but for me, happiness is a term that covers a range of positive emotions. As humans, we experience a wide array of moods and feelings including “negative” ones (such as depression, frustration, anxiety etcetera) and “positive” ones (such as satisfaction, joy and happiness).

I think of happiness as something that encompasses all of the positive emotions from what I call the “low arousal” ones, such as contentment, calm and satisfaction through to the “high arousal” ones such as joy and excitement.

It’s important to note, that none of these emotions are necessarily better or worse than any others but that some people will definitely tend more towards some than others. Although not exclusively, “extroverts” tend to seek out and experience more of the high arousal positive emotions while “introverts” tend to seek out and experience more of the lower arousal positive emotions.

Happiness, then, is a positive state of wellbeing characterised by these positive emotions and happiness comes from practising a few simple disciplines on a daily basis

Should happiness come naturally?

2007-10-22T08:32:00.000-07:00

The simple answer to this question is yes, if you’re lucky but no, if you’re like most people.

That is, for some people happiness does come naturally and easily in the same way that for some people, other skills or abilities (such as athletics and sports, problem solving, and even interpersonal relationships) come easily. For many people, however, whether it comes naturally or not is irrelevant. If you want to achieve greater happiness then you can – if you find out what to do and do it (and then practice it until you master it).

Consider the following example: how many of you were born able to drive a car? I bet the answer is “none of you”.

Despite this, because it’s something that can make our lives easier to manage, most of us put in the effort to learn how to drive and then we practice until we’re good enough to do it easily.

Happiness can be viewed in much the same way. If achieving happiness is important to you then whether it comes naturally or easily or not, need not stop you from (1) finding out what to do and then (2) practicing it until you’re really good at it.

Gross National Happiness why u not count plese count and tell me......

2007-10-22T08:25:00.000-07:00

Happiness and well-being are complicated. Researchers cite many factors, like education, nutrition, freedom from fear and violence, gender equality, and perhaps most important, having choices, write Authur Max and Toby Sterling.

The tiny Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan long ago dispensed with the notion of Gross National Product as a gauge of well-being. The king decreed that his people would aspire to Gross National Happiness instead.

That kernel of Buddhist wisdom is increasingly finding an echo in international development models, which seek to establish scientific methods for finding out what makes us happy and why.

New research institutes are being created at venerable universities like Oxford and Cambridge to establish methods of judging individual and national well-being. Governments are putting ever greater emphasis on promoting mental well-being - not just treating mental illness.

“In much the same way that research of consumer unions helps you to make the best buy, happiness research can help you make the best choices,” said Ruut Veenhoven, who created the World Database of Happiness in 1999.

When he started studying happiness in the 1960s, Veenhoven used data from social researchers who simply asked people how satisfied they were with their lives, on a scale of zero to 10. But as the discipline has matured and gained popularity in the past decade, self-reporting has been found lacking.

By their own estimate, “drug addicts would measure happy all the time,” said Sabina Alkire, of the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Institute.

New studies add more objective questions into a mix of feel-good factors: “ability to be an agent, to act on behalf of what matters to them, is fundamental,” said Alkire.

But if people say money can’t buy happiness, they’re only partially right.

Veenhoven’s database, which lists 95 countries and regions, is headed by Denmark with a rating of 8.2, followed by Switzerland, Austria, Iceland and Finland, all countries with high per capita income. At the other end of the scale are much poorer countries: Tanzania rated 3.2, behind Zimbabwe, Moldova, Ukraine and Armenia.

The United States just makes it into the top 15 with a 7.4 index rating. While choice is abundant in America, nutrition and violence issues helped drag its rating down.

Wealth counts, but most studies of individuals show income disparities count more. Surprisingly, however, citizens are no happier in welfare states, which strive to mitigate the distortions of capitalism than in purer free-market economies.

“In the beginning, I didn’t believe my eyes,” said Veenhoven of his data. “Icelanders are just as happy as Swedes, yet their country spends half what Sweden does (per capita) on social welfare,” he said.

In emphasizing personal freedom as a root of happiness, Alkire cited her study of women in the southern Indian state of Kerala, which showed that poor women who make their own choices score highly, compared with women with strict fathers or husbands.

Adrian G. White, of the University of Leicester, included twice as many countries as Veenhoven in his Global Projection of Subjective Well-being, which also measures the correlation of happiness and wealth. He, too, led his list with Denmark, Switzerland and Austria.

Bhutan, where less than half the people can read or write and 90 percent are farmers, ranks No. 8 in his list of happy nations. Its notion of GNH is based on equitable development, environmental conservation, cultural heritage and good governance.

US researchers have found other underlying factors: married people are more content than singles, but having children does not raise happiness levels; education and IQ seem to have little impact; attractive people are only slightly happier than the unattractive; the elderly - over 65 - are more satisfied with their lives than the young; friendships are crucial.

But the research also shows that many people are simply disposed to being either happy or disgruntled, and as much as 50 percent of the happiness factor is genetic. Like body weight, moods can swing only so much from their natural “set point.”

So can you do anything about it? Some educators say you can.

People “can be taught emotional resilience, self-control, the habits of optimism, handling negative thoughts and much else,” Anthony Seldon, ex-British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s biographer and the headmaster of Wellington College in Britain, wrote recently in the Financial Times.

Seldon is developing happiness courses, working with the Institute of Well-being at Cambridge which was founded last November.

One recent book seeking to cash in on the well-being craze bears the English title “Dutch Women Don’t Get Depressed,” though it’s written in Dutch. Veenhoven says the title is off base: statistically, women get depressed more often than men, and Dutch women aren’t happier than others in the wealthy West.

Veenhoven says that with the right combination of individual choices and government policy, nations can raise their happiness quotient by as much as five percent.

In an influential 2004 academic paper, Martin Seligman, the University of Pennsylvania psychologist, credited with launching the positive psychology movement in 1998, and Ed Diener of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign encouraged policymakers to consider more than economic development in their planning.

“Although economic output has risen steeply over the past decades, there has been no rise in life satisfaction during this period, and there has been a substantial increase in depression and distrust,” they wrote.

British opposition leader David Cameron recently established a Quality of Life Policy Group to examine ways governments can legislate to boost national contentment levels.

“It’s time we admitted that there’s more to life than money, and it’s time we focused not just on GDP, but on GWB - general well-being,” he said in a speech last year.

Even experts acknowledge the difficulty of assigning numerical scales to feelings, and they are still grappling with how best to refine definitions.

At Cambridge’s Institute of Well-being, another group has expanded the standard happiness questionnaire to 50 items, and is incorporating it into a European Social Survey of 50,000 people.

It aims to weigh not only personal feelings (”I’m always optimistic about my future”), but how people function (”I feel I am free to decide for myself how to live my life”) and their relationships with others (”To what extent do you feel that people in your local area help one another?”).

“Happiness is more complicated than we originally thought..............say somebody
