Words of Wisdom
Standing for what you believe in,
Regardless of the odds against you,
And the pressure that tears at your
Resistance, means courage
Keeping a smile on your face,
When inside you feel like dying,
For the sake of supporting others,
Means strength
Stopping at nothing,
And doing what’s in your heart,
What you know is right, means determination
Doing more than is expected,
To make another’s life a little more bearable,
Without uttering a single complaint,
Means compassion
Helping a friend in need,
No matter the time or effort,
To the best of your ability, means loyalty
Giving more than you have, and
Expecting nothing
But nothing in return, means selflessness
Holding your head high,
And being the best you know you can be
When life seems to fall apart at your feet,
Facing each difficulty with the confidence
That time will bring you better tomorrows,
And never giving up,
Means confidence.

Where's God
He was just a little boy, on a week’s first day. He was wandering home from Sunday School, and dawdling on the way.
He scuffed his shoes into the grass; he found a caterpillar. He found a fluffy milkweed pod, and blew out all the “filler.”
A bird’s nest in a tree overhead, so wisely placed on high Was just another wonder that caught his eager eye.
A neighbor watched his zig zag course, and hailed him from the lawn. Asked him where he’d been that day and what was going on.
“I’ve been to Bible School,” he said and turned a piece of sod. He picked up a wiggly worm replying, “I’ve learned a lot about God.”
“M’m very fine way,” the neighbor said, “for a boy to spend his time.” “If you’ll tell me where God is, I’ll give you a brand new dime.”
Quick as a flash the answer came! Nor were his accents faint. “I’ll give you a dollar, Mister, if you can tell me where God ain’t.

Love is more than words….
There are times when we are timid and shy about expressing the love we feel. For fear of embarrassing the other person, or ourselves, we hesitate to say the actual words “I love you.” So we try to communicate the idea in other words.
We say ‘take care’ or ‘don’t drive too fast’ or ‘be good.’ But really, these are just other ways of saying ‘I love you,’ ‘you are important to me,’ ‘I care what happens to you,’ ‘I don’t want you to get hurt.’
We are sometimes very strange people. The only thing we want to say, and the one thing that we should say, is the one thing we don’t say. And yet, because the feeling is so real, and the need to say it is so strong, we are driven to use other words and signs to say what we really mean. And many times the meaning never gets communicated at all and the other person is left feeling unloved and unwanted.
Therefore, we have to LISTEN FOR LOVE in the words that people are saying to us. Sometimes the explicit words are necessary, but more often, the manner of saying things is even more important. A joyous insult carries more affection and love within the sentiments which are expressed insincerely.
An impulsive hug says I LOVE YOU even though the words might be saying very different.
Any expression of a person’s concern for another says I love you. Sometimes the expression is clumsy, sometimes even cruel. Sometimes we must look and listen very intently for the love that contains. But it is often there, beneath the surface.
A mother may nag her son constantly about his grades or cleaning his room. The son may hear only the nagging, but if he listens carefully, he will hear the love underneath the nagging. His mother wants him to do well, to be successful. Her concern and love for her son unfortunately emerge in her nagging. But it is love all the same.
A daughter comes home way past her curfew, and her father confronts her with angry words. The daughter may hear only the anger, but if she listen carefully, she will hear the love under the anger. “I was worried about you,” the father is saying. ‘Because I care about you and I love you. You are important to me.’
We say I love you in many ways - with birthday gifts, and little notes, with smiles and sometimes with tears. Sometimes we show our love by just keeping quiet and not saying a word, at other times by speaking out, even brusquely. We show our love sometimes by impulsiveness. Many times we have to show our love by forgiving someone who has not listened to the love we have tried to express.
The problem in listening for love is that we don’t always understand the language of love which the other person is using. A girl may use tears or emotions to say what she wants to say, and her boyfriend may not understand her because he expects her to be talking his language. Thus, we have to force ourselves to really listen for love.
The problem with our world is that people rarely listen to each other. They hear the words, but they don’t listen to the actions that accompany the words or the expression on the face. Or people listen only for rejection or misunderstanding. They do not see the love that is there just beneath the surface, even if the words are angry. We have to listen for love in those around us.
If we listen intently we will discover that we are a lot more loved than we realize. Listen for love and we will find that the world is a very loving place, after all.
LOVE is a happy thing.
It makes us laugh.
It makes us sing.
It makes us sad.
It makes us cry.
It makes us seek the reason why.
It makes us take.
It makes us give.
Above all else it makes us LIVE.
It is not the presence or absence of people that makes the difference because a person need not be lonely even if he is alone. Sometimes it is good to be alone. But that does not make us lonely. It is not a matter of being present WITH someone. It is a matter of being present TO someone.
So remember…If you love someone, tell them. Remember always to say what you mean. Never be afraid to express yourself. Take this opportunity to tell someone what they mean to you. Seize the day and have no regrets.
Most importantly, stay close to your friends and family, for they have helped make you the person that you are today and are what it’s all about anyway.

Friendship vs. Love
Friendship is a quiet walk in the park with the one you trust
Love is when you feel like you are the only two around
Friendship is when they gaze into your eyes and you know they care
Love is when they gaze into your eyes and it warms your heart
Friendship is being close even when you are far apart
Love is when you can still feel their hand on your heart when they are not near
Friendship is hoping that they experience the very best
Love is when you bring them the very best
Friendship occupies your mind
Love occupies your soul
Friendship is knowing that you will always try to be there when in need
Love is when you will give up everything to be at their side
Friendship is a warm smile in the winter
Love is a warming touch that sends a pulse through your heart
Love is a beautiful smile to which nothing compares
A tender laugh, which opens your heart
A single touch that melts away your fears
A smell that reminds you of the tenderness of heaven
A voice that reminds you of the innocence of youth
Friendship can survive without love
Love cannot live without friendship

The Mom Song Sung to William Tell Overture with Lyrics
What a mom says in 24 hours, condensed into 2 minutes and 55 seconds! Hilarious and talented! “The Mom” song, sung to the William Tell Overture, by Anita Renfroe.
‘The Mom Song’ - lyrics
Get up now
Get up now
Get up out of bed
Wash your face
Brush your teeth
Comb your sleepyhead
Here’s your clothes and your shoes
Hear the words I said
Get up now! Get up and make your bed
Are you hot? Are you cold?
Are you wearing that?
Where’s your books and your lunch and your homework at?
Grab your coat and gloves and your scarf and hat
Don’t forget! You gotta feed the cat
Eat your breakfast, the experts tell us it’s the most important meal of all
Take your vitamins so you will grow up one day to be big and tall
Please remember the orthodontist will be seeing you at 3 today
Don’t forget your piano lesson is this afternoon so you must play
Don’t shovel
Chew slowly
But hurry
The bus is here
Be careful
Come back here
Did you wash behind your ears?
Play outside, don’t play rough, will you just play fair?
Be polite, make a friend, don’t forget to share
Work it out, wait your turn, never take a dare
Get along! Don’t make me come down there
Clean your room, fold your clothes, put your stuff away
Make your bed, do it now, do we have all day?
Were you born in a barn? Would you like some hay?
Can you even hear a word I say?
Answer the phone! Get off the phone!
Don’t sit so close, turn it down, no texting at the table
No more computer time tonight!
Your iPod’s my iPod if you don’t listen up
Where are you going and with whom and what time do you think you’re coming home?
Saying thank you, please, excuse me makes you welcome everywhere you roam
You’ll appreciate my wisdom someday when you’re older and you’re grown
Can’t wait till you have a couple little children of your own
You’ll thank me for the counsel I gave you so willingly
But right now I thank you not to roll your eyes at me
Close your mouth when you chew, would appreciate
Take a bite maybe two of the stuff you hate
Use your fork, do not burp or I’ll set you straight
Eat the food I put upon your plate
Get an A, get the door, don’t get smart with me
Get a grip, get in here, I’ll count to three
Get a job, get a life, get a PHD
Get a dose of,
“I don’t care who started it!
You’re grounded until you’re 36″
Get your story straight and tell the truth for once, for heaven’s sake
And if all your friends jumped off a cliff would you jump, too?
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said at least a thousand times before
That you’re too old to act this way
It must be your father’s DNA
Look at me when I am talking
Stand up straighter when you walk
A place for everything and everything must be in place
Stop crying or I’ll give you something real to cry about
Oh!
Brush your teeth, wash your face, put your PJs on
Get in bed, get a hug, say a prayer with mom
Don’t forget, I love you
And tomorrow we will do this all again because a mom’s work never ends
You don’t need the reason why
Because, because, because, because
I said so, I said so, I said so, I said so
I’m the mom, the mom, the mom, the mom, the mom!!
Ta da!!!
As the Lord God was
As the Lord God was
creating the world
he called upon his archangels.
The Lord asked his archangels
to help him decide where to put
the Secret of Life
“Bury it in the ground,” one angel replied.
“Put it on the bottom of the sea,” said another.
“Hide it in the mountains,” another suggested.
The Lord replied, “If I see to do any of those
only a few will find the Secret of Life.
The Secret of Life must be accessible
to EVERYONE!”
One angel replied, “I know; put it in each
man’s heart. Nobody will think to look there.”
“Yes!” said the Lord.
“Within each man’s heart.”
And so it was -
The SECRET OF LIFE
lies within all of us.

The Rose
And upon a day, while walking among the flowers of his teacher’s garden, did the child speak unto the Mystic:
“Some men claim that this life
is the darkness of a curse,
and a punishment to be endured
for all our wicked ways.
Oh Mystic, what say you of life ?”
And the Mystic answered:
“I say that life is neither a curse nor a punishment,
But a rose filled with the beauty of desire.
The stem of the rose is your life upon this earth,
The thorns, painful lessons you bring unto
yourself, that you might learn.
The leaves are those joys that enter
your life with the tenderness of an unseen Love.
Curse not the sorrow of your thorns,
for the deeper they cut unto the heart of
your being, the greener the leaves of joy shall be.
The tiny bud is your soul, waiting to
bloom with the truth of God among its petals.
Slowly will your flower unfold,
that you might not become lost
within the fragrance of its secret.
And when the rose is at the height of its beauty,
Shall you not see the pureness of God
smiling from the very center of your Being ?”
Interview With God
I dreamed I had an interview with God.
“Come in,” God said. “So, you would like to interview Me?”
“If you have the time,” I said.
God smiled and said:
“My time is eternity and is enough to do everything; What uestions do you have in mind to ask me?”
“What surprises you most about mankind?”
God answered:
“That they get bored of being children, are in a rush to grow up, and then long to be children again…
That they lose their health to make money and then lose their money to restore their health…
That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live neither for the present nor the future…
That they live as if they will never die, and they die as if they had never lived.”
God’s hands took mine and we were silent for awhile and then I asked… “As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons you want your children to learn?”
God replied with a smile:
“To learn that they cannot make anyone love them. What they can do is to let themselves be loved…
To learn that what is most valuable is not what they have in their lives, but who they have in their lives…
To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others. All will be judged individually on their own merits, not as a group on a comparison basis…
To learn that a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is one who needs the least…
To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in persons we love, and that it takes many years to heal them…
To learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness…
To learn that there are persons that love them dearly, but simply do not know how to express or show their feelings…
To learn that money can buy everything but happiness…
To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it totally different…
To learn that a true friend is someone who knows everything about them, and likes them anyway…
To learn that it is not always enough that they be forgiven by others, but that they have to forgive themselves.”
I sat there for awhile enjoying the moment. I thanked Him for his time and for all that He has done for me and my family, and He replied, “Anytime. I’m here 24 hours a day. All you have to do is ask for me, and I’ll answer.”

Why Me..?
I went to a party Mom,
I remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,
So I drank soda instead.
I really felt proud inside, Mom,
The way you said I would.
I didn’t drink and drive, Mom,
Even though the others said I should.
I know I did the right thing, Mom,
I know you are always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom,
As everyone is driving out of sight.
As I got into my car, Mom,
I knew I’d get home in one piece.
Because of the way you raised me,
So responsible and sweet.
I started to drive away, Mom,
But as I pulled out into the road,
The other car didn’t see me, Mom,
And hit me like a load.
As I lay there on the pavement, Mom,
I hear the policeman say,
“The other guy is drunk,” Mom,
And now I’m the one who will pay.
I’m lying here dying, Mom….
I wish you’d get here soon.
How could this happen to me, Mom?
My life just burst like a balloon.
There is blood all around me, Mom,
And most of it is mine.
I hear the medic say, Mom,
I’ll die in a short time.
I just wanted to tell you, Mom,
I swear I didn’t drink.
It was the others, Mom.
The others didn’t think.
He was probably at the same party as I.
The only difference is, he drank
And I will die.
It can ruin your whole life.
I’m feeling sharp pains now.
Pains just like a knife.
The guy who hit me is walking, Mom,
And I don’t think it’s fair.
I’m lying here dying
And all he can do is stare.
Tell my brother not to cry, Mom.
Tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven, Mom,
Put “Daddy’s Girl” on my grave.
Someone should have told him, Mom,
Not to drink and drive.
If only they had told him, Mom,
I would still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter, Mom.
I’m becoming very scared.
Please don’t cry for me, Mom.
When I needed you, you were always there.
I have one last question, Mom.
Before I say good bye.
I didn’t drink and drive,
So why am I the one to die?
Someone took the effort to write this poem. Please, spread this to as many people as you can. This will make people understand that drinking and driving don’t mix.

Love someone
Breathless
Just to hear your voice
is all i need
to know whats in your heart, and not lies
Just one touch
is all i need
to turn you into being my crush
Just one kiss
is all i need
to make me miss this
You are the rainbow in my life
The reason the birds sing
Life is beautiful when you are around
You take all my sorrows away.
WHY DID I EVER LET YOU GO?
Many things are meant to be said
Many things are meant to be done
But nothing compares to what is in my heart.
The way you woo my life
I can imagine how it feels like being with you
I’ll be your fairytale
You can be my knight
I want you to know i’d do it all for L.O.V.E

Be brave enough to live creatively
Be brave enough to live creatively. The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. You can’t get there by bus, only by hard work, risking, and by not quite knowing what you’re doing. What you’ll discover will be wonderful: yourself.

Lovely Love Quotes
Young love is when you love someone because of what they do right. Mature love is when you love someone in spite of what they do wrong.
The most important ingredient we put into any relationship is not what we say or what we do, but what we are.
Love and kindness are never wasted. They always make a difference. They bless the one who receives them, and they bless you, the giver.
One must not lose desires. They are mighty stimulants to creativeness, to love, and to long life.
Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.
The best portion of a good man’s life is in his little nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love.
It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year-Andy Williams
Christmas is just round the corner and every one is shopping for gifts and decorations. Where family comes in and food and everyone is happy. I just think christmas is one of the most biggest holidays in the world
Be brave enough to live creatively
Be brave enough to live creatively. The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. You can’t get there by bus, only by hard work, risking, and by not quite knowing what you’re doing. What you’ll discover will be wonderful: yourself.

MAMMA MIA - MOVIE
This movie was AMAZING!! It's good for all ages and it's fun. Meryl Streep plays the hilarious Donna who's daughter tries to find her long lost father. She secretly invites to the wedding three men from her mother's past in hopes of meeting her real father and having him escort her down the aisle on her big day. With hits from ABBA woven perfectly into the story line, this movie is a must see!
The winner takes it all FULL [Meryl Streep - Mamma Mia!]
I actually laughed out aloud but tears rolled when Donna was helping Sophie dress for her wedding and during the number "Winner Takes it All" between Meryl Streep and Peirce Brosnan. Overrall the movie was GREAT.

IF YOU LOVE SOMEONE...
Well, I have always believed and still do believe that if you love someone set them free….love is like sand..the more you try to tighten your grip it will slip away at a greater rate…and ultimately you will be left with nothing in your palm except a few grains in the form of memories. OK….enough of this serious talk…actually this old quote goes something like this:
If you love someone, set them free.
If they come back they’re yours;
If they don’t they never were.
However, in today’s world, this quote finds its own MODERN VERSIONS depending on the kind of people you are:
Pessimist:
If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she ever comes back, she’s yours,
If she doesn’t, as expected, she never was
Optimist:
If you love someone,
Set her free …
Don’t worry, she will come back .
Suspicious:
If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she ever comes back, ask her why.
Impatient:
If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she doesn’t come back within some time forget her.
Patient:
If you love someone, set her free ..
If she doesn’t come back,
continue to wait until she comes back …
Playful
If you love someone,
Set her free …
If she comes back, and if you love her still,
set her free again, repeat …
C++ Programmer:

Animal-Rights Activist:
If you love someone,
Set her free,
In fact, all living creatures deserve to be free!!
Lawyers:
If you love someone,
Set her free,

Statisticians :
If you love someone,
Set her free,
If she loves you, the probability of her coming
back is high
If she doesn’t, your relation was improbable
anyway.
Schwarzenegger’s fans:
If you love someone,
Set her free,
SHE’LL BE BACK!
Over possessive person :
If you love someone
don’t set her free.
MBA :
If you love someone set her free instantaneously
and look for others simultaneously
Psychologist :
If you love someone
set her free
If she comes back her super ego is dominant
If she doesn’t come back her id is supreme
If she doesn’t go, she must be crazy.
Somnambulist :
If you love someone
set her free
If she comes back it’s a nightmare
If she doesn’t, you must be dreaming
So people which category do you belong to?? Me am a romantic at heart so I still believe in the original quote!!!

HOW DO I CHANGE?
If I feel depressed I will sing.
If I feel sad I will laugh.

IS IT THE END OF ROMANCE?
They’re all saying it these days — in schools and colleges, in parks and restaurants, at workplaces and in bedrooms, over the phone and through the e-mail. They first say it as a declaration, then as an assurance.
Even people who normally don’t converse in English, when it comes to expressing this primary emotion, prefer ‘I love you’ to its vernacular equivalent. Just as the way it happens in the movies: the hero or the heroine will flirt in the regional language, but the flirtation usually culminates with the mouthing of the inevitable ‘I love you.’
But when people say ‘I love you’ to each other, what exactly do they mean?
That they want to get married?
That they find each other irresistible?
Or is it an expression of affection or admiration?
Or an unstated agreement to have sex?
No one knows!!
The answer is bound to be as complicated as the definition of love.
But one thing is certain.
Ten years ago, when you said ‘I love you’, no matter what you meant by that, it was taken not only as a declaration of love but also of commitment. It was sacred as a vow. And you usually said it only once in your lifetime — to the person who eventually became your spouse. And the pleasure of saying it was similar to using a smuggled French perfume.
Today, you can get the same perfume in the neighborhood departmental store. Similarly, ‘I love you’ is now a free commodity.
Today, ‘I love you’ no longer means you are the only one I love. It is only an expression of feeling,” says psychiatrist. “People are in a great hurry to fall in love. Having an affair has become a status symbol, especially on campuses.”
So today, people are falling in love more often than ever before. And not just with one person. Today you might be in love with someone, but you are free to walk out if the relationship is stifling and fall in love with someone else. Unlike the days of the past
when only death could do you apart.
Does that mean the present generation is less sincere when it says ‘I love you’? I doesn’t think so. They no longer say it to express a commitment. I believe they mean it when they say it. Perhaps, with culture and tradition, relationships have become flexible too. Rarely do we see a love affair culminating in marriage. Often we find that the victim of an unsuccessful affair soon gets into another one!
This casual attitude of today’s youth can be viewed as a dangerous trend. “When one runs from one relationship to another, it becomes a character trait, only to be continued in future.”
So where does this leave love?
As I heard someone say,”The word love means nothing to me at the moment, but I know when I meet my knight in shining armor, then it will have a lot of significance. At this point in time, if someone said it to me, I would not believe him.”
Why not?
The answer is simple — ‘I love you’ is no longer the smuggled French perfume.
Say it to any woman today and she’s unlikely to be impressed
Instead, she’s likely to turn back and ask:
“How many people you have said this to before?”
In any case, no one falls in love with a Tom, Dick or Harry these days — something that still happens in movies, where a autorickshaw driver wins the heart of a millionaire’s daughter.
In real life, it’s among equals (something that the strict father of the erring heroine is looking for when pushing her into a room and locking her up). We see this as a natural phenomenon. “By and large, we are drawn to people who are compatible, who we can relate to. That’s the in-built safety mechanism love has. Unless it is an act of rebellion.” So you fall in love with and marry someone compatible.
After that what?
“As long as you are in love minus the responsibilities, you are crazy about it. Once married, the colors start fading. Moreover, where is the time for romance after you have a child?”
So the question is :
Is it really worth falling in love?
For that, we have to first define love. And that’s not as easy as saying, I love you.

IS LOVE ALWAYS PAINFUL?
Had told myself always am never gonna fall in love…cos i know from experiences of my friends that love brings with it lots of pain…so never had the courage to fall in love cos didn’t have the heart to bear the pain the fall would ultimately give in return. Have never let my heart rule the mind……had been the strongest person in my group of friends but then am also human and one weak moment led to the fall and the hurt and pain was inevitable. They say loving him is my biggest mistake but how can it be so wrong if it feels so right?
But me being the strong person I am (some people think so..I m not telling this on my own, ok?) will definitely overcome this trauma, will take time…but I know I can and I will!!
It goes that to love someone is nothing, to be loved by someone is something, to love someone who loves you is everything.
So does that make my love zilch …nothing….?? I’m still wondering…..
“In life when you have to make a choice between the one you love and the one who loves you,
Choose the one who loves you.
Because you can learn to love someone….
But cannot teach someone to love you!!”

MOVE ON...
Have u ever missed someone and felt terrible because
u think that
he/she
doesn’t miss u?
Missing someone is terrible but at the same time,
a
sweet feeling.
U will be sitting around wondering if u meant
anything to him/her.
Thinking if he/she ever cares about u.
Rushing to the phone once it rings hoping that
it’s
him/her.
Looking out of the window hoping that he/she will
surprise u by
appearing
downstairs.
Sitting in front of the television but thinking of
him/her,
missing the final episode of your favorite show.
Laying on your bed, thinking of the last time u
were
out together.
Thinking of how nice it will be to sit under the
stars again,
talking about everything, your dreams,
plans,future.
Logging on to the internet hoping to see him/her
online.
When u realise that he/she isn’t online and did
not
return your mail,
u will start worrying if he/she is okay.
Missing someone is a way of growing up i guess.
It exposes u to loneliness.
It teaches u how to cope with being lonely and let
u
know that there is
actually a feeling known as emptiness.
Sometimes it feels good to miss someone.
U know that u really care and u indulge in the
feeling of loving/caring
for
him/her.
But missing someone and not knowing if he/she is
feeling the same is
terrible.
U feel as if u are being left alone.
So if u miss someone, tell him/her and let them
know.
At the same time, ask if they miss u.
Don’t let the feeling of missing someone become
jealousy or paranoia.
If u are the one being missed and u know it, let
the
other party know.
If u miss him/her too, tell them. Don’t let them
wait.
And if the one you are missing can’t/doesn’t
reciprocate,
MOVE ON !!
Life is short, so instead of being hurt & waiting
around-Move on!!
Believe in yourself & life, there’s someone out there
waiting to miss U
too!!
u think that
he/she
doesn’t miss u?

Just Three Words
LET ME HELP
Good friends see a need and then try to fill it. When they see a hurt they do what they can to heal it. Without being asked, they jump in and help out.
I UNDERSTAND YOU
People become closer and enjoy each other more when the other person accepts and understands them. Letting your spouse know - in so many little ways - that you understand them, is one of the most powerful tools for healing your relationship. And this applies to any relationship.
I RESPECT YOU
Respect is another way of showing love. Respect demonstrates that another person is a true equal.This strengthens bonds and brings closeness.
I MISS YOU
Perhaps more relationships could be saved and strengthened if couples simply and sincerely said to each other “I miss you”. This powerful affirmation tells partners they are wanted, needed, desired and loved. Consider how important you would feel, If you received an unexpected phone call from your partner in the middle of your workday, just say “I miss you.”
MAYBE YOU’RE RIGHT
This phrase is very effective in diffusing an argument. the implication when you say “may be you’re right” is the humility of admitting with someone, all you normally do is solidify the other person’s point of view. They or you, will not likely change their position and you run the risk of seriously damaging the relationship between you. Saying “may be you’re right” can open the door to explore the subject more. You may then have the opportunity to express your view in a way that is understandable to the other person.
PLEASE FORGIVE ME
Many broken relationship could be restored and healed if people would admit their mistakes and ask for forgiveness. All of us are vulnerable to faults, foibles and failures. A man should never be ashamed t own up that he has been in the wrong which is saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.
I THANK YOU
Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy. People who enjoy the companionship of good, close friends are those who don’t take daily courtesies for granted, They are quick to thank their friends for their many expressions of kindness. On the other hand, people whose circle of friends is severely constricted often do not have the attitude of gratitude.
COUNT ON ME
A friend is one who walks in when others walk out. Loyalty is an essential ingredient for true friendship. It is the emotional glue that bonds people. Those that are rich in their relationships tend to be steady and true friends. when troubles come, a true friend is there indicating “you can count on me”.
I’LL BE THERE
If you have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the night, to take a sick child to to hospital or when your car has broken down some miles from home, you will know how good it feels to hear the phrase “I’ll be there. Being there for another person is the greatest gift we can give. When we are truly present for other people important things happen to them and us. We are renewed in love and friendship. We are restored emotionally and spiritually. Being there is at the very core of civility.
GO FOR IT
We are all unique individuals. Dont try to get your frie3nds conformto your ideals. Support them in pursuing their interests, no matter how far out they seem to you.. God has given everyone dreams, dreams that are unique to that person only. Support and encourage your friends to follow their dreams. Tell them to “go for it”.
I LOVE YOU
Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling someone that you truly love them satisfies a person’s deepest emotional needs. The need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted. Everyone need to hear those three little words: “I LOVE YOU”. Love is a choice. you can love even when the feeling is gone.
Good friends see a need and then try to fill it. When they see a hurt they do what they can to heal it. Without being asked, they jump in and help out.
I UNDERSTAND YOU
People become closer and enjoy each other more when the other person accepts and understands them. Letting your spouse know - in so many little ways - that you understand them, is one of the most powerful tools for healing your relationship. And this applies to any relationship.
I RESPECT YOU
Respect is another way of showing love. Respect demonstrates that another person is a true equal.This strengthens bonds and brings closeness.
I MISS YOU

Is silence always gold?
Someone just told me the other day that “Speak less to people whom who love the most, cos if they can’t understand your silence, they can never understand your words.” Well I know speech is silver, silence is gold.
But dear I believe that silence is a text easy to misread and I think spiteful words can hurt your feelings but silence breaks your heart and do you know silence propagates itself, and the longer talk has been suspended, the more difficult it is to find anything to say?
So now on if I call up someone and someone speaks little and I do the blah blah, which is the case most of the time……..what am I supposed to make out of it? Is that someone listening …or..rather…..reading?
Love Marriage vs Arranged Marriage
Love Marriage: Resembles procedural programming language. We have some set functions like flirting, going to movies together, making long conversations on phone and then try to fit all functions to the candidate we like.
Arranged Marriage: Similar to object oriented programming approach. We first fix the candidate and then try to implement functions on her. The main object is fixed and various functions are added to supplement the main program. The functions can be added or deleted.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Love Marriage: It is a throwaway type of prototype as client requirements rises with time thus it is a dynamic system and difficult to maintain.
Arranged Marriage: Requirements are well defined so use of waterfall model is possible.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Love Marriage: Family system hangs because hardware called parents are not responding.
Arranged Marriage: Compatible with hardware Parents.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Love Marriage: You are the project leader so u are responsible for implementation and execution of PROJECT- married life.
Arranged Marriage: You are a team member under project leader parents so they are responsible for successful execution of project Married life.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Love Marriage: Client expectations include exciting feature as spouse cooking food, washing clothes etc.

Beautiful Thoughts For Life
No one can go back and make a brand new start. Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
God didn’t promise days without pain, laughter, without sorrow, sun, without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Disappointments are like road bumps, they slow you down a bit but you enjoy the smooth road afterwards. Don’t stay on the bumps too long. Move on!
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
When you feel down because you didn’t get what you want, just sit tight and be happy, because God has thought of something better to give you.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
When something happens to you, good or bad, consider what it means.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
There’s a purpose to life’s events, to teach you how to laugh more or not to cry too hard.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
You can’t make someone love you, all you can do is be someone who can be loved, the rest is up to the person to realize your worth.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
It’s better to lose your pride to the one you love, than to lose the one you love because of pride.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
We spend too much time looking for the right person to love or finding fault with those we already love, when instead we should be perfecting the love we give.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Never abandon an old friend. You will never find one who can take their place. Friendship is like wine, it gets better as it grows older.

Seeds Of Friendship
Life is a vicious cycle
We live it everyday
Reaching out to help each other
In a very special way.
A kind word now and then
Sometimes is what it takes
Creating lasting friendship
Is what your effort makes.
Holding hands together
No matter when or where
Understanding and respect
Just showing that you care.
Like a lovely garden
Nurture it each day
Plant the seeds of friendship
All along the way.

What are you?
A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her.
She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose.
Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and in the last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil, without saying a word.
In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled the coffee out and placed it in a bowl.
Turning to her daughter, she asked, “Tell me what you see.”
“Carrots, eggs, and coffee,” she replied.
Her mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. The mother then asked the daughter to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard boiled egg.
Finally, the mother asked the daughter to sip the coffee. The daughter smiled as she tasted its rich aroma.
The daughter then asked, “What does it mean, mother?”
Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity — boiling water. Each reacted differently.
The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak.
The egg had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water, its inside became hardened.
The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water.
“Which are you?” she asked her daughter. “When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?”
Think of this: Which am I? Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength?
Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the heat?
Did I have a fluid spirit, but after a death, a breakup, a financial hardship or some other trial, have I become hardened and stiff?
Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and hardened heart?
Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that brings the pain. When the water gets hot, it releases the fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you.
When the hour is the darkest and trials are their greatest, do you elevate yourself to another level? How do you handle adversity? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?

Echo Of Life
A son and his father were walking on the mountains. Suddenly, the son falls, hurts himself and screams: “AAAhhhhhhhhhhh! !!”
To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating, somewhere in the mountain: “AAAhhhhhhhhhhh! !!”
Curious, he yells: “Who are you?”
He receives the answer: “Who are you?”
Angered at the response, he screams: “Coward!”
He receives the answer: “Coward!”
He looks to his father and asks: “What’s going on?”
The father smiles and says: “My son, pay attention.” And then he screams to the mountain: “I admire you!” The voice answers: “I admire you!”
Again the man screams: “You are a champion!”
The voice answers: “You are a champion!”
The boy is surprised, but does not understand. Then the father explains: “People call this ECHO, but really this is LIFE. It gives you back everything you say or do. Our life is simply a reflection of our actions.”
If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart. If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.
This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life. Life will give you back everything you have given to it.

Tears From The Heart
Emotion is the trigger
that births a tiny tear
Could be love or happiness
or sadness and/or fear.
Tear drops start their flowing
from deep within our heart
When feelings overwhelm us
through our eyes they will depart
Tears of Sorrow - Tears of Joy
Tears of sheer delight
But when the tear drops finish
a sense of calm is there
For tears are an expression
of an experience that we share
that births a tiny tear
Could be love or happiness
or sadness and/or fear.
Tear drops start their flowing
from deep within our heart
When feelings overwhelm us
through our eyes they will depart
Tears of Sorrow - Tears of Joy
Tears of sheer delight

LOVE IS MEANT TO BE FREE
I once had a friend who grew to be very close to me.
Once when we were sitting at the edge of a swimming pool, she filled the palm of her hand with some water and held it before me, and said this: “You see this water carefully contained on my hand? It symbolizes Love.”
This was how I saw it: As long as you keep your hand caringly open and allow it to remain there, it will always be there. However, if you attempt to close your fingers round it and try to posses it, it will spill through the first cracks it finds.
This is the greatest mistake that people do when they meet love…they try to posses it, they demand, they expect… and just like the water spilling out of your hand, love will retrieve from you .
For love is meant to be free, you cannot change its nature. If there are people you love, allow them to be free beings.
Give and don’t expect.
Advise, but don’t order.
Ask, but never demand.
It might sound simple, but it is a lesson that may take a lifetime to truly practice. It is the secret to true love. To truly practice it, you must sincerely feel no expectations from those who you love, and yet an unconditional caring.

A poem wrote for you
I think of no one else
for there is only you
your smile quickly melts me
what am i to do
i worry and i fret
when you are not near
the thought of you hurt
is my greatest fear
i send you kisses at night
where ever you may be
i ask my guardian angel
to protect you, instead of me
i can not pretend
or lie anymore
no longer can my feelings hide
closed behind a door
in my eyes you're perfect
there's no wrong that you can do
for i finally realize
that I'm in love with you
for there is only you
your smile quickly melts me
what am i to do
i worry and i fret
when you are not near
the thought of you hurt
is my greatest fear
i send you kisses at night
where ever you may be
i ask my guardian angel
to protect you, instead of me
i can not pretend
or lie anymore
no longer can my feelings hide
closed behind a door
in my eyes you're perfect
there's no wrong that you can do
for i finally realize
that I'm in love with you
Count Your Blessings
