When a BOY...

2 important moments of your life

The 2 important moments of a person's life:
1st - When (s)he was born!
and
2nd - When (s)he proves why (s)he was born... !!

So, go ahead and prove yourself.

Expression vs Emotions

Respect the emotions in someone's heart,
Rather than the expressions in someone's face.
Coz expression is just the formality,
But emotions are the reality.

When a GIRL...

Tell me, what's your name?

A college student needed a small two-hour course to fill his schedule and the only one available was wildlife Zoology. So he joined in and after one week of study, a test was held. The professor passed out a sheet of small paper where in each square was a carefully drawn picture of a bird's legs. No bodies, no feet, just legs.


The test asked each student to identify the birds from their legs. Our student sat and stared at the test getting angrier every minute. Finally he stomped up to the front of the classroom and threw the test on the teacher's desk. "This is the worst test I have ever written."

The teacher looked up and said: "Young man, you have not filled in anything and you definitely have failed the test. Tell me, what's your name?"

The student pulled up his pant to the knee showing his legs and said, "You tell me..."

Keep your garbage to yourself...!!

This is a message I had received long back... and wanted to keep it in my treasure box, in this case my blog. This is not my story, but some great personnel's story (can't remember the name at the moment). Hope it inspires you.

One day I hopped in a Taxi and we took off for the Airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.

My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly. So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!' This is when my Taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck'

Your woman...

The woman in your life...very well expressed...

Tomorrow you may get a working woman, but you should marry her with these facts as well.

Here is a girl, who is as much educated as you are;

Who is earning almost as much as you do;

One, who has dreams and aspirations just as you have because she is as human as you are;

One, who has never entered the kitchen in her life just like you or your Sister haven't, as she was busy in studies and competing in a system that gives no special concession to girls for their culinary achievements;

One, who has lived and loved her parents and brothers and sisters, almost as much as you do for 20-25 years of her life;

Love is...

Love is Blind because... My Mom started to Love me before seeing My Face.

Smiling without any reasons...

People say we are crazy when we smile, with no reason, when we are alone.
They never know that it's the real smile, with sweetest reason, with someone special in thoughts.

Never loose it...

Sacrifice is greater than Love,
Character is greater than Beauty,
Humanity is greater than Wealth,
Never loose it...

Open...

An open heart receives love;
Open mind receives wisdom;
Open hand receives gifts and
Only the cute persons read my blogs... :)

Two words

These two words will open many doors in life...

Determination

The only difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is extraordinary determination.

Touch the best corners of life...

"Without crossing the worst situations,
No one can touch the best corners of life..."

Dare to face anything in our mysterious life... !!!

Best-friend's...

A best friend is one who:
Excuses before you say sorry...
Understands before you explain...
Waits forever when you say just a minute...
Stays with you when you say leave me...

Searching for good people?

Don't search for good people all over the world because

Truth and Trust...

Truth and Trust are God's own virtues!!
Never play with anyone's feelings!
Never break anyone's trust!

You are remembered...

Heart doesn't forget those special people for whom it cares.
Though daily struggle of life put us a bit apart;
You are remembered always by this little heart.

I know how special you are...

Butterflies don't know the color of their wing,
however, our eyes can see how nice it is.
Likewise you don't know how sweet you are,
but I know how special you are to me.

Height of social networking...

Height of social networking:
A man get heart attack when his house maid said, "साहेब (Sir), I've sent you a friend request in FACEBOOK. Please accept it!!"

Pearls of Wisdom...

Pearls of Wisdom -
Money can't buy happiness,
But somehow its more comfortable to cry on a BMW than on a tricycle.

Friendship means... Tai Tai Phis

Friendship means:
U Happy, I Happy
U Sad, I Sad
U Cry, I Cry
U Laugh, I Laugh
U fall down in muddy water, I will dance

Newton is wrong...

Science doesn't work everywhere. Because the time taken to love someone, is never equal to time taken to forget them. This time newton is wrong!!!

Freedom and Happiness

Doing what you like is freedom;
Liking what you do is happiness.

Is it true?

Silent eyes...

Heart speaks more when eyes start looking at someone silently,
                   but life seems to be more exciting when someone starts reading those eyes silently.

Most beautiful thing in the world is...

The most beautiful thing in this world is to see your parents smiling and next best thing is to know that you are the reason behind that smile...

I am a puppy...

Husband and wife fighting in front of child...
Wife: "तू साला कुत्ता" [you are a dog]
Husband: "तू साली कुत्ती" [you are a bicche (bitch)]
Child: hehehehehehe.... "मैं साला पप्पी!!" [I am a puppy]

Why do people in love won't get sleep?

A: Why do people in love won't get sleep?
L: Coz when in love You feel reality more wonderful than dreams.
A: Ha ha ha ha.... what a joke LOL.

Pretending that you are happy

The Day u ACCEPT the Fact that you are not at all IMPORTANT for the person who is MOST IMPORTANT for you is the day you start PRETENDING that you are HAPPY.

Pumpkin in a Jug

This is Earl Nightingale's, "Pumpkin in a jug."

In the fall when the leaves are turning, a chill is in the air and roadside merchants offer fall apples, squash and pumpkins, I am reminded of the farmer who was walking through his pumpkin patch early in the growing season, and while walking near the road that ran by his farm, he found a one-gallon glass jug that some motorist had tossed into his field. He stood looking at the jug for a few moments, and then, for no particularly good reason, he poked a small pumpkin into the jug without damaging the vine.

Later when the pumpkins were full grown and were being picked and stacked, he came across the jug again, this time completely filled with the pumpkin he'd poked inside. The pumpkin had filled the jug completely, and had stopped growing; it was the size and shape of the jug. The farmer took that pumpkin in the jug home and put it on his front porch as a curiosity.

A few days later his son and his wife came to the farm for dinner. They examined the pumpkin in the jug, and after looking at it in silence for a while, the son asked if he could take it to the local college where he taught psychology. "Sure, take it," his father said. "But what are you going to do with it?"

"I'm going to show it to my class and remind them that, that's what happens to things that get poked into pre-determined spaces. That pumpkin never got the chance to reach its full growth, whatever that might have been, because it had been poked into pre-determined limits. Someone had decided what the shape and size of that pumpkin was going to be, and it didn't have any choice in the matter. I want my students to learn a lesson from that pumpkin in a jug. We cannot outgrow the limitations we place on ourselves, or the limits determined by other if we go along with them, so I want them to understand that if they find themselves, as adults, living in cramped circumstances in their work or any other way, it was they who did the poking - it's their responsibility. That pumpkin is a good argument for the importance of education."

Neither the farmer nor his wife had looked at the pumpkin in the jug in just that way, but they thought it could provide a good example. And it did. After the story got out just about every student in the university came to take a look at it and retell the story the young assistant professor had told. And I suppose most of them realized then that if we wind up in spaces too small, if we don't grow to our full stature, it's because we made the decision to stop and not grow any further - if was our decision. It was because we poked ourselves into a space.

People are responsible for their own lives. If they have the power to limit their growth in someway, they also have the power to break through those limitations and grow again.

It takes courage to chart our own courses and choose the higher plateaus of achievement and reward.

The moments are passing faster...

The moments are passing faster - try to go with the stream.. before you loose the sight of the shore.

To give people a second chance...

It is strength, not weakness, to give people a second chance when they are truly sorry for their mistakes and want to do better.

NOTE: when truly sorry.. do not forgive like the saints...

Ah... if you are a saint then you may forgive.. :D

From WalkTheTalk... 01 - WELCOME THE RAIN

As the first raindrops fall to the ground
A businessman lets out an angry sigh.
Knowing traffic will be slow he thinks,
Why me? Why today? Just tell me why!

Outside of town, a farmer scans the horizon
As the storm clouds begin to roll in.
With joy and celebration he calls out,
We are blessed! At last! This drought will end!


In every life storms will come:
Adversity, Inconvenience, or Pain.
Only we can choose how we will respond:
To be overwhelmed or to Welcome The Rain.


It's not about what happens to us,
It's what we think, internalise and perceive.
It's not about the external events;
It's about what we choose to believe.
Believe that difficult times help us grow;
They build our characters, strength and wisdom.
Believe our challenges can truly be blessings.

And with this understanding, comes freedom.
For we are no longer at the mercy of the wind, 
being forcefully tossed around.
When we can see a life through different eyes -  
the world's joys and beauties about.

So, as you continue on life's journey,
and feel the presence 
of rain's first dew, 
stand strong, be determined, remain focused 
and remember, what is so true - 
when we choose to see beyond life's storms, 
a new perspective we will gain; 
Since we will only find our rainbow, 
after we Welcome The Rain.

Our challenges, adversities can become our blessings, if we stand strong, be determined, remain focused, believe on ourself, face the challenges and we can see the life beyond the storms.

Choose to see beyond life's storms…

because it is only after the rain that you will find your rainbow.
- By Michelle Sedas

This is a powerful song from the book written by Michelle Sedas "Welcome the Rain..."


Listen to the audio clip here...
It's in Michelle Sedas's own voice.


Reflect yourself in the mirror and try to see how challenges have ultimately turned into your blessings... You gotta smile and welcome the storms of your life.. and try to see beyond the storm...

I love this message... You can embrace this too.

Here's vedio:

Jingle Bells

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, jingling all the way

Dashing through the snow
On a one-horse open sleigh,
Over the fields we go,
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bob-tail ring,
making spirits bright,
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
jingle all the way!
O what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

A day or two ago,
I thought I'd take a ride,
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank;
Misfortune seemed his lot;
He got into a drifted bank,
And we, we got up sot.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Jingle all the way!
What fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

A day or two ago,
the story I must tell
I went out on the snow
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh,
He laughed as there
I sprawling lie,
But quickly drove away.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Jingle all the way!
What fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Now the ground is white
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls tonight
And sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bob-tailed bay
two-forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack! you'll take the lead.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Jingle all the way!
What fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

I wish... you too would jingle bells of happiness, love, care and affection to all those people who really count in your life.

Life is too short to live... So... if you have someone whom you love the most or/and someone who loves you the most... then make a resolution this year too as you have done earlier, that you will keep yourself surrounded by them always...

Wish the year should be filled with peace and prosperity for all in this universe...

Keep smiling... Keep rocking...

Your smile can help others spread and have peace and joy in their lives... :)

When your Management decides to Screw You...

Once PVNR (PV Narasimha Rao), L.K.Advani and Laloo Prasad Yadav were travelling in an autorickshaw. They met with an accident and all three of them died.

Yama Raja was waiting for this moment at the doorstep of death.

He asks PVNR and Advani to go to HEAVEN.

But, for Laloo, Yama had already decided that he should be sent to HELL.
Laloo is not at all happy with this decision.

He asks Yama as to why this discrimination is being made. All the three of them had served the public. Similarly, all took bribes, all misused public positions, etc.

Then why the differential treatment?

He felt that there should be a formal test or an objective evaluation before a decision is made; and should not be just based on opinion or pre-conceived notions.

...I shall start with myself

"But where was I to start? The world is so vast. I shall start with the country I know best, my own. But my country is so very large. I had better start with my town. But my town, too, is large. I had best start with my street. No: my home. No: my family. Never mind, I shall start with myself."

~ Elie Wiesel

Meaningful

"The word 'meaningful' when used today is nearly always meaningless."
~ Paul Johnson

True measure of a man

"The true measure of a man is how he treats someone who can do him absolutely no good."
~ Samuel Johnson

How to measure the value of a man?

"You can tell the value of a man by the way he treats his wife,
by the way he treats a subordinate,
and by the way he treats someone who can do nothing for him."
~ Ken Babcock

Life is now

"It is good to appreciate that life is now.
Whatever it offers, little or much, life is now – this day – this hour."
~ Charles Macomb Flandrau

Successful vs Unsuccessful

"The only thing that separates successful people from the ones who aren't, is the willingness to work very, very hard."
~ Helen Gurley Brown

... We admire their astuteness

"Those who agree with us may not be right, but we admire their astuteness."
~ Cullen Hightower

Character is...

"Character is what you have left when you've lost everything you can lose."
~ Evan Esar

We remember

"We do not remember days,
                      we remember moments."
~ Cesare Pavese

Sense of humor

"A sense of humor is part of the art of leadership, of getting along with people, of getting things done."
~ Dwight D. Eisenhower

When you become a leader...

"Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others."
~ Jack Welch

... See in the mirror

"Ultimately, it's up to each of us to choose how we will live our lives, hold ourselves to high standards, and continually evaluate what's inside the image we see in the mirror."
~ Eric Harvey

Lion for a day...

"It is better to be a lion for a day than a sheep for all your life."
~ Elizabeth Kenny

How do you want other to remember you?

"The way we choose to respond when others make mistakes can cause them to feel ashamed or can allow them to remember our kindness and share our stories with future generations."
~ Michelle Sedas

Hello...

The Word 'Hello' means

How R U?
Everything all right?
Like 2 hear 4rm U.
Love 2 C U soon.
Obviously, I miss you!

What is Love?

In a classroom there were several kids, when one of them asked the teacher:

- Teacher, what is LOVE ?

The teacher felt the kid deserved the best answer she could give to that intelligent question. Since it was almost time for a break, she asked every student to go around the school and come back with something that would bring the feeling of love.

The kids rushed out the classroom, and when they came back the teacher said:

- So, I want everybody to show what you brought to the whole class.

The first kid said:

- I brought this FLOWER, isn't it beautiful ?

The second kid said:

- I brought this BUTTERFLY. Look at these colorful wings, I am gonna put it in my collection !

The third kid said:

- I brought this YOUNG BIRD. It had fallen with another one from the nest. Isn't it cute ?

And the kids were showing what they brought.

After almost everybody had showed their discoveries, the teacher noticed that there was a kid who had been quiet all the time. She was ashamed because she had not brought anything.The teacher went to her and asked:

- My dear, why haven't you brought anything ?

She then answered in an innocent voice:

- I am sorry teacher. I saw the FLOWER, and felt its perfume. I was going to take it, but I preffered to leave it so its perfume would last longer and others could feel it. I also saw the BUTTERFLY, soft, colorful..she seemed so happy that I did not want to disturb it. I also saw the YOUNG BIRD that had fallen between the leafs, but as I climbed the tree, I noticed the sad look of it's mother, so I decided to return it to the nest. Therefore, I only bring with me: the perfume of the flower, the feeling of liberty of the butterfly and the gratefulness of the look of the little bird's mother. How can I show you what I brought?

The teacher thanked the young kid and gave her an A, because she was the only one that realized that we can only bring LOVE in our hearts.

Excellence leads to Perfection

Here I share an important story of my life, which influences me a lot every time I recollect it to proceed in my life everyday ...

A man once visited a temple under construction where he saw a sculptor making an idol of God. Suddenly he noticed a similar idol lying nearby. Surprised, he asked the sculptor, "Do you need two statues of the same idol?"

"No," said the sculptor without looking up, "We need only one, but the first one got damaged at the last stage."

The gentleman examined the idol and found no apparent damage. "Where is the damage?" he asked.

"There is a scratch on the nose of the idol." said the sculptor, still busy with his work.

"Where are you going to install the idol?" The sculptor replied that it would be installed on a pillar twenty feet high.

"If the idol is that far, who is going to know that there is a scratch on the nose?" the gentleman asked.
The sculptor stopped his work, looked up at the gentleman, smiled and said, "I will know it."


The desire to excel is exclusive of the fact whether someone else appreciates it or not. "Excellence" is a drive from inside, not outside.

Excellence is not for someone else to notice but for your own satisfaction and excellence.

Now, I realise why Aamir is called as a Perfectionist... You can surely find out every bit of perfection in his movies. He is my fav. actor. Rather he is an artist in every sense.

A Love Story

There was once this guy who was very much in love with his girl. This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces of paper cranes as a gift to his girl. Although, at that time he was just a small fry in his company and his future didn't seem too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she could not visualize any future for the two of them, so they went their own ways there and then... Heartbroken, the guy agreed. But when he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make something out of himself.

Don't be Over-excited

A new vacuum cleaner salesman knocked on the door on the first house of the street. A tall lady answered the door.

Before she could speak, the enthusiastic salesman barged into the living room and opened a big black plastic bag and poured all the cow droppings onto the carpet.

"Madam, if I could not clean this up with the use of this new powerful Vacuum cleaner, I will EAT all this s**t!" exclaimed the eager salesman.

"Do you need chilly sauce or ketchup with that" asked the lady.

The bewildered salesman asked, "Why, madam?"

"There's no electricity in the house..." said the lady.

MORAL: Gather all resources before working on any project and committing to the client...!!!

How Friendship Break?

HOW FRIENDSHIPS BREAK ?

Both Friends Will Think The Other Is Busy


And Will Not Contact 
Thinking It May Be Disturbing...

As Time Passes

Both Will Think Let The Other Contact

After That each Will Think "Why I Should Contact First?"

Finally Without Contact The Memory Becomes Weak

They Forget Each Other.

So Keep In Touch With All And Pass This TO All Your Friends...

I Don`t Want To be One Of This Kind.

Delighted Father - Poor Groom

Everyone in the wedding ceremony was watching the radiant bride as her father escorted her down the aisle to give away to the groom. They reached the altar and the waiting groom; the bride kissed her father and placed some thing in his hand. Everyone in the room was wondering what was given to the father by the bride.

The father could feel the suspense in the air and all eyes were on him to divulge the secret and say something. So he announced "Ladies and Gentlemen today is the luckiest day of my life." Then he raised his hands with what his daughter gave him and continued, "My daughter finally, finally returned my credit card to me."

The whole audience including the priest erupted in laughter .......... all except the poor Groom!

The Guardian Angel

A Man was walking down a street when he heard a voice from behind, "If you take one more step, a brick will fall down on your head and kill you." The man stopped and a big brick fell right in front of him.. The man was astonished.

He went on, and after a while he was going to cross the road. Once again the voice shouted, "Stop! Stand still! If you take one more step a car will run over you, and you will die." The man did as he was instructed, just as a car came careening around the corner, barely missing him.

The man asked. "Who are you?" "I am your guardian angel," the voice answered. "Oh, yeah?" the man asked "And where the hell were you when I got married?"

School teaches you something or the other always

This is a Story I received from one of my friend... Another treasure in my blog box

"you have done a brilliant work Rajesh. You have been given….rrrrhhhhh……Raaaajjjeeeessshhhh………… Raaaajjjeeeessshhhh."- what!! I woke up from a sudden jerk. 'Raaajeeessshhh….'…I heard my wife yelling. What's w/ her? Always yelling for something or the other. I can't be in peace even in my dreams. Shucks!! Angrily, I kicked my blanket and got down. 'Raaajesssh….'  'Coming Meera..what's w/ you. Why are you shouting like this..'.

Sometimes people are beautiful...

“Sometimes people are beautiful.
Not in looks.
Not in what they say.
Just in what they are.”
