20 Key Ideas for a Happy Marriage.

20 Key Ideas for a Happy Marriage...

1.  Keep your mind on your main goal, which is to have a happy marriage. Say and do what will enable you and your spouse to have a happy marriage. Avoid the opposite. Everything else is commentary.

2.  Keep asking yourselves, What can we do to have a happy, loving atmosphere in our home?

3.  Focus on giving, rather than taking. Say and do as many things as possible to meet your spouses needs.

4.  Keep doing and saying things that will give your spouse a sense of importance.

5.  Frequently ask yourself, What positive things can I say and do to put my (husband or wife) in a positive emotional state?

6.  Before speaking, clarify the outcome you want. The meaning of your communication is the response you actually get. If the first thing you say is not achieving your goal, change your approach. Remember that mutual respect and happiness is your real goal. Do not needlessly argue. Silence is often the wisest choice. Constantly be mutually respectful.
.

7.  Show appreciation and gratitude in as many ways as possible. Say something appreciative a few times a day.

8.  Be a good listener. Understand your spouse from his or her point of view.

9.  Be considerate of the feelings and needs of your spouse. Think of ways that you have lacked consideration and be resolved to increase your level of consideration.

10.  Instead of blaming and complaining think of positive ways to motivate your spouse. If your first strategies are not effective, think of creative ways.
.
11.  Give up unrealistic expectations. Do not expect your spouse to be perfect and do not make comparisons.

12.  Do not cause pain with words. If your spouse speaks to you in ways that cause you pain, choose outcome wording, Lets speak to each other in ways that are mutually respectful.

13.  Be willing to compromise. Be willing to do something you would rather not do in return for similar behavior from your spouse.

14.  Write a list of ways that you have benefited from being married to your spouse. Keep adding to the list and reread it frequently
.

15.  Write a list of your spouses positive patterns and qualities. Keep adding to the list and read it frequently
.

16.  Keep thinking about what you can do to bring out the best qualities of your spouse. Reinforce those qualities with words and action
.

17.  Focus on finding solutions to any problems that arise. Be solution oriented. Do not just blame and complain. Do not focus on who is more wrong. For a happy marriage, work together to find mutually acceptable solutions
.

18.  Remember your finest moments. What did you say and do when you felt best about each other? Increase them
.

19.  Look for positive activities you can do together
.

20.  Live in the present. What went wrong in the past is the past. You create the present and future with your thoughts, words, and actions right now. Choose them wisely.

The Tale Of A Date.!!!

    She is my first and the only love till this point. Her name is Nivedita, a software engineer by profession. She is turning twenty-four shortly and she is undoubtedly the most beautiful girl on earth. I made it a point to share my feelings today with her, hoping this letter would do it all. I have not written any letters in my life till now, and this is perhaps the first time I pen down my thoughts and expectations for the person I love the most on earth.


    It's been four years since we met each other and a strong bond has grown between us through these years. I was unaware of her love for a long time. In fact, I hadn't spoken a word with her till about a year I had seen her for the first time. It was in one long journey in train, I understood her love for me. It happened a year ago.


It was a trip from Kanyakumari to Chennai in Kanyakumari Express. We had passed Vizhupuram and it was 3 am in the morning. I thought I was the only one who was awake in the whole compartment in that early hour. But to my surprise, she was also awake.


I didn't know then that it was for me she had got up that early. Hardly had she seemed to move her sight away from me. She smiled at me very often and every time I encountered that cute smile, I started eagerly awaiting the next battle with her smile and shining eyes. Her smile had everything in it, the story of unbelievable affection, care and what not.


From that moment, till now, I too have loved her to a great extent. We have never exchanged words about the love we have towards each other, but words are too less to reflect the amount of affection and love we share. I have always thought that the love would remain throughout our life and it happened to be the same till three months back.


Vivek had come into my life three months back. In fact I myself had waited his arrival for quite a long time, but from the moment he arrived, he has been the worst enemy in my life. Nivedita and he had grown close over times, and the fraction of time she spent with me got lowered to a great extent. Even the latest Sensex fall would be less compared to the fall in her affection for me.


I have wondered how it could suddenly happen, after near to four long years of understanding and love amidst us. At times, I have felt like killing that guy Vivek, but I have not had that much strength or braveness to do that. Still, what can he do? He did no mistake to his part, except for being born charming, cute and fair.
Two days before when I saw her, she was feeding food for him and I was hurt to the core on seeing the incident. My anger had boiled down to tears, and I broke. It took almost close to three hours for me stop crying, I felt I had cried more than how much I would have cried when I was born.


I have been trying to understand where it all went wrong, but to my fortune, till now, I haven't been able spot it out. Once for all, I decided to tell all my feelings to her, no matter how she is going to deal with it. I have heard my dad saying a lot of times 'Something is better than nothing!' and I made up my mind to do 'something'.


I fixed today to be the 'DATE' for throwing open in front of her the 'TALE' of my pure love for her. I don't know whether I will get a positive response from her, but I pray God that only the best happens.


Trrrrriinnnnnnggggg...


 My school bell has rung. The lunch break is over. My 'UKG' classmates would be ready to welcome me with the same cute smile as ever.
I hope my 'MOTHER' Nivedita will be alright, understands me and shares some time with me also, apart from that she spends with my three months old rascal 'BROTHER' Vivek.


See you after a break!!!


With Love,
Deepak UKG-B

Mgmt/ Four Hats for Success...!!!

Four Hats for Success…!!!!

 

In any business there must be four hats worn each day. Your company
could consist of just you, the owner and operator, or it could
consist of over 2,000 employees. By managing these four hats, you
will increase revenue through efficiency and decrease costs by
eliminating waste and disorganization.

1. The Captain (General Manager/Owner). The Captain oversees,
delegates and organizes. Captains are individuals usually known as
the General Manager. They see the broader picture and make sure the
smaller jobs are done: bills are paid, files are organized, the
accounts receivable are up to date, etc. They do not actually do the
small task jobs, they make sure the jobs are fulfilled and the
company runs smoothly. It is also necessary that they step back to
notice and acknowledge the company's short and long term goals.

2. Deck Support (Office Assistant). Deck Support makes sure the
small details are done. This hat is usually worn by employees such
as the office assistant, the runner and/or the logistics person.
They complete small-detail tasks such as filing, data entry, paying
bills and making sure the office is clean and organized. This person
will report to the Captain.

3. The Technician (Worker). The Technician makes and installs the
windows, installs the computers or cleans the carpets. The
Technician gets the product to the consumer so that money can be
collected.

4. The Dreamer (Entrepreneur). The Dreamer can't sleep nights
because they are imagining how great things will be. Dreamers are
the visionaries of the company and dream about logos, expansion,
fulfillment, money, power, fun and energy.
All of these jobs are very important. When a company loses its
Captain, it runs into an iceberg and drowns. With no Deck Support,
things get lost and the company crashes. Without a Technician, no
product is delivered; thus no revenue. If a company loses its
Dreamer the company's vision is lost and the company experiences a
slow death.

If hats are worn by employees other than the General Manager, the
Captain needs to hold the employee accountable to staying on task
and completing the job. The General Manager also needs to hold the
Captain accountable to receive appropriate information and complete
necessary tasks.

A ship cannot run without a crew. Although the hats and tasks are
separate and different, it is imperative to hold a weekly staff
meeting to stay on the same page. Nothing hurts a company faster
than the right hand not knowing what the left hand is doing; having
hats sprawled all over the place and getting lost. Staff meetings
can be rewarding when they are consistent and will result in your
company's progress.

The human mind can get confused easily. The unconscious can only
attend to about five tasks at once so juggling four hats is a skill
that needs to be developed. Do this by separating the four hats in
your mind. Realize and recognize which hat you are wearing and focus
on the job that you are doing. Be clear in your mind what task you
are completing and consciously switch your hat when needed.
The Captain needs to assess when each hat needs to be worn and when.
Sometimes the Captain's hat will take all day and the Dreamer's hat
is saved for the weekend. It may be that the Technician hat is not
worn for a few weeks until a job needs to be completed.

This expertise is valuable and becomes more thorough when the
Captain steps back and looks at the whole company from a broader
perspective.

Each hat is fulfilling and rewarding in its own way. Take
satisfaction in tasks well done, keep your hats in order and enjoy
smooth sailing!

Why mothers are special....???

Why mothers are special….???

Mum and Dad were watching TV when Mum said, 'I'm tired, and it's getting late. I think I'll go to bed.'
She went to the kitchen to make sandwiches for the next day's
lunches. Rinsed out the popcorn bowls, took meat out of the
freezer for supper the following evening, checked the cereal box
levels, filled the sugar container, put spoons and bowls on the
table and started the coffee pot for brewing the next morning.
She then put some wet clothes in the dryer, put a load of clothes
into the washer, ironed a shirt and secured a loose button. She
picked up the game pieces left on the table, put the phone back
On the charger and put the telephone book into the drawer. She
watered the plants, emptied a wastebasket and hung up a towel to
dry. She yawned and stretched and headed for the bedroom.
She stopped by the desk and wrote a note to the teacher,
counted out some cash for the excursion and pulled a text book
out from hiding under the chair. She signed a birthday card for a
friend, addressed and stamped the envelope and wrote a quick
note for the  grocery store. She put both near her bag.

Mum then washed her face with 3 in 1 cleanser, put on her Night
Solution & age fighting moisturizer, brushed and flossed her
teeth and filed her nails.

Dad called out, 'I thought you were going to bed.'

'I'm on my way,' she said. She put some water into the dog's dish
and put the cat outside, then made sure the doors were locked
and the patio light was on. She looked in on each of the kids and
turned out their bedside lamps and radios, hung up a shirt, threw
some dirty socks into the hamper, and had a brief conversation
with the one up still doing homework.

In her own room, she set the alarm; laid out clothing for the next
day, straightened up the shoe rack. She added three things to
her 6 most important things to do list. She said her prayers, and
visualized the accomplishment of her goals. About that time, Dad
turned off the TV and announced to no one in particular. 'I'm
going to bed.' And he did...without another thought.

Anything extraordinary here? Wonder why women live longer...?

'CAUSE THEY ARE MADE FOR THE LONG HAUL....

and they can't die sooner, they still have things to do!!!!

I guess now you know why women are so special :).....!!!

Masters of the Modern Art...!!!

 

 

Sree...


From: Vasu, Sreenath
Sent: Monday, March 31, 2008 12:37 AM
To: 'heartgraphs@googlegroups.com'; heartgraphs@yahoogroups.com
Subject: Masters of the Modern Art...!!!

 

It’s almost impossible to talk about modern art without tipping your hat to these greats. Here are the masters who gave birth to the modern.


Pablo Picasso (1881 – 1973)

Picasso is the undisputed master of the modern movement. You have to go back to Michelangelo to find anyone of equal genius or stature. Convivial and energetic, he had a voracious appetite for the female sex, although his relationships with women were not always happy.

Creator of a vast output of work, he was equally inventive as a painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicists, and theater designer. His work displays a bewildering change of technical and stylistic originality with a wide-ranging Freudian response to the human condition, including many intimate references to sex and death, sometimes blissful, sometimes anguished.

Always highly autobiographical, Picasso had the rare ability to turn self-comment into universal truths about mankind.

Henri Matisse (1869 – 1954)

Matisse was the king of color and celebrated the joy of living through the exploration of his palette.One of the founders of the modern movement, Matisse achieved a joyous combination of subject matter (notably the open window, the still life, and the female nude) and a glorious exploitation of color, and proclaimed a new freedom to do his own thing without necessarily imitating nature. Matisse explored color independently from subject matter and turned color into something you wanted to touch and feel.

While he was at his best with paint and paper cutouts, he was also a brilliant and innovative printmaker and a gifted sculptor. As a personality however, he was professorial, social, but a bit of a loner.

Wassily Kandinsky (1866 – 1944)

Kandinsky was one of the key pioneers of the modern movement and reputedly the creator of the first abstract picture. Russian born, he initially trained as a lawyer, which made him at ease with abstract modes of thought.

Possessor of a complex, multifaceted personality, Kandinsky cultivated an intellectual rather than an instinctive approach to art, backed up by much theoretical writing. Starting as a figurative artist, he worked his way via freely painted abstracts to a complex geometrical form of abstraction.

The common thread in all his work is color. He intellectualized his ideas and his art, but at the same time he had such a strong physical sensitivity to color that he could literally hear colors as well as see them (a phenomenon known as synesthesia)

How to Make Decisions: Six Hats Thinking...!!!

How to Make Decisions: Six Hats Thinking...!!!

 

The Six Hats Thinking technique enables you to break out of your
habitual thinking style and make better quality decisions. Six Hats
Thinking was created by Edward De Bono with the aim of looking at
the effect of a decision from a number of important, different
perspectives, and modifying your decision accordingly. This decision
making approach can be successfully used individually or in a group.

In short, you consider the effect of a decision by wearing
six "hats", and in turn, articulating the aspirations and concerns
of each group.

White Hat
This is the data hat, where you consider facts, figures and
information, identify any gaps in your knowledge and either fill or
acknowledge them. For example, you use historical data or case
studies to predict future behaviour, or do a cost benefit analysis.

Red Hat
This is the emotional hat, where intuition, instinct and irrational
responses are considered.

Black Hat
Is the negative, pessimistic, "the world is going to end" hat. This
viewpoint is useful as flaws and assumptions can be flushed out and
addressed, and contingency plans prepared.

Yellow Hat
Is the polar opposite of the black hat, where optimism prevails.
This is where benefits and added value are considered.

Green Hat
The Green Hat is used to put some creativity into the process. What
other options exist? Is there a trickier, smarter solution?

Blue Hat
Is the hat worn by the person facilitating the decision making
process, ensuring each hat is worn in turn and gets a fair amount of
air-time.

Here's an example of how Six Hats Thinking can be used.

A small training company are deciding on whether to deliver online
training. This is new territory for them as they have historically
only done face to face training. However, they need to grow the
business and think this is what customers want.

White Hat Thinking
The team look at their finances and see face to face training
numbers are generally stagnant, and declining for some courses.
Feedback from customers suggest a growing proportion would prefer a
training solution that could be delivered "on demand", wherever and
whenever the trainee requires. There are already a considerable
number of successful training companies with an online presence.

Red Hat Thinking
The team are nervous about their lack of experience in managing
online training. They are concerned their roles will change into
being technical support and no longer doing what they enjoy or are
good at.

Black Hat Thinking
Black hat thinking flushes out concerns about the cost and
complexity of building a website and creating an online training
platform, particularly if not all courses are suited to an online
environment. Also, how does this project fit with existing workload?

Yellow Hat Thinking
Yellow hat thinking frees the team up to believe that in a year's
time they will be wondering what they were worried about. They break
the project up into manageable chunks, with agreed deadlines and
deliverables. They realise that if all goes to plan, there may be a
new market in turning other companies training from off-line into on-
line training.

Green Hat Thinking
Spending some time wearing the green hat makes the team consider
other ways to deliver training, both off and on-line. They create
two different training solutions which they had not previously
considered.

Blue Hat Thinking
Throughout the discussion, one person wears the blue hat, ensuring
no thinking style dominates or colours the others.

Six Hats Thinking forces you to consider many different perspectives
when making a decision, and break out of your habitual thinking
style. This technique is particularly useful for both newly formed,
or established teams, as there is a transparent decision making
process to be followed

Ever wshed to start your own TV Channel...???

Ever wshed to start your own TV Channel...???

Here is an established way that you can do it…- Justin.tv

Justin.tv is building a destination site for broadcasting and watching live video online while chatting with friends. The company’s mission is to enable viewers and broadcasters to interact and exchange ideas in real time through chat and live video.

Their mission, in their own words:

“In the past, live broadcasting was only available to large media corporations who were willing to spend millions of dollars. Today, Justin.tv has democratized live video by shrinking all of the functionality of an expensive TV satellite trunk into a simple laptop or desktop computer.”

Justin.tv began as the crazy brainchild of its founder, Justin Kan, who decided it would be really cool if he could broadcast his entire life, 24/7, to the Internet. To make his idea a reality, he enlisted the help of his friends Michael, Emmett and Kyle, and raised a seed investment from Y Combinator. Together, the team launched “Justin.tv,” the very first lifecast, on March 19, 2007. After gaining the national media spotlight, hundreds of people started asking for the ability to broadcast their own live video. As a result, the team went back to work to build the ultimate platform for broadcasting live video to the web.

Love Touch and inspire others...

Love Touch and inspire others

                                                                            

 My wife called, 'How long will you be with that newspaper? Will you come here and make your darling daughter eat her food?'               

 I tossed the paper away and rushed to the scene. My only daughter Sindu looked frightened. Tears were welling up in her eyes. In front  

 Of her was a bowl filled to its brim with Curd Rice. Sindu is a nice child, quite intelligent for her age. She has just turned eight. She   

 Particularly detested Curd Rice. My mother and my wife are orthodox, and believe firmly in the 'cooling effects' of Curd Rice! I cleared my

 Throat, and picked up the bowl. 'Sindu, darling, why don't you take a few mouthful of this Curd Rice? Just for Dad's sake, dear.             

                                                                        

  Sindu softened a bit, and wiped her tears with the back of her hands.  'OK, Dad. I will eat - not just a few mouthfuls, but the whole lot of

 This. But, you should...'  Sindu hesitated. 'Dad, if I eat this entire   curd Rice, will you give me whatever I ask for?'....... ....Oh sure,  

 Darling'.... 'Promise? '........  .........   'Promise'. I covered the pink soft hand extended by my daughter with mine, and clinched the deal.                         

 'Ask Mom also to give a similar promise', my daughter insisted. My wife put her hand on  Sindu's, muttering 'Promise'.                 

                                                                        

 Now I became a bit anxious.  'Sindu dear, you shouldn't insist on getting a computer or any such expensive items. Dad does not have that 

 Kind of money right now.  OK?' No, Dad. I do not want anything expensive’. Slowly and painfully, she finished eating the whole quantity.                                     

 I was silently angry with my wife and my mother for forcing my child eats something that she detested.                                      

 After the ordeal was through, Sindu came to me with her eyes wide with expectation. All our attention was on her.........  ....'Dad, I want  

 To have my head shaved off, this Sunday!' was her demand.  'Atrocious!' shouted my wife, 'A girl child having her head shaved    

 Off? Impossible!' 'Never in our family!' had my mother rasped Shee has been watching too much of television. Our culture is getting totally  

 Spoiled with these TV programs!'   Sindu darling, why don’t you ask for something else? We will be sad seeing you with a clean-shaven head.'                                 

 'No, Dad. I do not want anything else', Sindu said with finality. 'Please, Sindu, why don't you try to understand our feelings?' I      

 Tried to plead with her. 'Dad, you saw how difficult it was for me to eat that Curd Rice'. Sindu was in tears. 'And you promised to grant me whatever I ask      

 For. Now, you are going back on your words. Was it not you who told me the story of King  Harish Chandra, and its moral that we should honor   

 Our promises no matter what?'                                          

                                                                        

 It was time for me to call the shots. 'Our promise must be kept.'  'Are you out your mind?' chorused my mother and wife.                 

 'No. If we go back on our promises, she will never learn to honor her own. Sindu, your wish will be fulfilled.'                              

 With her head clean-shaven, Sindu had a round-face, and her eyes looked big and beautiful.                                              

                                                                        

 On Monday morning, I dropped her at her school. It was a sight to watch my hairless Sindu walking towards her classroom. She turned       

 Around and waved. I waved back with a smile. Just then, a boy alighted from a car, and shouted, 'Sinduja, please   

 Wait for me!'  What struck me was the hairless head of that boy. 'May be, that is the in-stuff', I thought.                                              

 'Sir, your daughter Sinduja is great indeed!' Without introducing herself, a lady got out of the car, and continued,' that boy who is   

 Walking along with your daughter is my son Harish. He is suffering from... ... leukemia.' She paused to muffle her sobs. Harish could not

 Attend the school for the whole of the last month. He lost all his hair due to the side effects of the chemotherapy. He refused to come back  

 To school fearing the unintentional but cruel teasing of the schoolmates. 'Sinduja visited him last week, and promised him that   

 She will take care of the teasing issue. But, I never imagined she would sacrifice her lovely hair for the sake of my son!                                                              

 Sir, you and your wife are blessed to have such a noble soul as your daughter.'                                                             

 I stood transfixed. And then, I wept. 'My little Angel, you are teaching me how self-less real love is!'                              

 *The happiest people on this planet are not those who live on their own terms but are those who change their terms for the ones whom they love...*                                                              

                                                                        

 Love Touch and inspire others                                         

                                                                         

 "The life is short, the vanities of world are transient but they alone

 Live who live for others; the rest are more dead than alive."

Perspective is what matters :):)

Perspective is what matters!!!

 

The train has started moving. It is packed with people of all ages, mostly
with the working men and women and young college guys and gals. Near the
window, seated a old man with his 30 year old son. As the train moves
by, the son is overwhelmed with joy as he was thrilled with the scenery
outside..

 

" See dad, the scenery of green trees moving away is very beautiful"

This behavior from a thirty year old son made the other people feel
strange about him. Every one started murmuring something or other about this
son."  This guy seems to be a krack.." newly married Anup whispered to his wife.

Suddenly it started raining... Rain drops fell on the travelers through the
opened window. The Thirty year old son , filled with joy " see dad, how
beautiful the rain is .."

 

Anup's wife got irritated with the rain drops spoiling her new suit.

 

Anup ," cant you see its raining, you old man, if ur son is not feeling
well get him soon to a mental asylum..and don’t disturb public henceforth"


The old man hesitated first and then in a low tone replied " we are on
the way back from hospital, my son got discharged today morning , he was a
blind by birth, last week only he got his vision, these rain and nature
are new to his eyes.. Please forgive us for the inconvenience caused..."


The things we see may be right from our perspective until we know the
truth. But when we know the truth our reaction to that will hurt even
us. So try to understand the problem better before taking a harsh action.

The person who has been hindering your growth is dead...!!!

The person who has been hindering your growth is dead...!!!

 

One day all the employees reached the office and they saw a big advice on the door on which it was written:

'Yesterday the person who has been hindering your growth in this company passed away. We invite you to join the funeral in the room that has been prepared in the gym'.

In the beginning, they all got sad for the death of one of their colleagues, but after a while they started getting curious to know who was that man who hindered the growth of his colleagues and the company itself.

The more people reached the coffin, the more the excitement heated up.

Everyone thought: 'Who is this guy who was hindering my progress? Well, at least he died!'.

One by one the thrilled employees got closer to the coffin, and when they looked inside it they suddenly became speechless. They stood nearby the coffin, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their soul.

There was a mirror inside the coffin: everyone who looked inside it could see himself.

There was also a sign next to the mirror that said:

'There is only one person who is capable to set limits to your growth: it is YOU.

You are the only person who can revolutionize your life. You are the only person who can influence your happiness, your realization and your success.

You are the only person who can help yourself.

Your life does not change when your boss changes, when your friends change, when your parents change, when your partner changes, when your company changes. Your life changes when YOU change, when you go beyond your limiting beliefs, when you realize that you are the only one responsible for your life.

'The most important relationship you can have is the one you have with yourself'

Examine yourself, watch yourself. Don't be afraid of difficulties, impossibilities and losses: be a winner, build yourself and your reality.

It's the way you face Life that makes the difference.

1 - First Important Lesson - Cleaning Lady. 

During my second month of college, our professor gave us a pop quiz. I was a conscientious student and had breezed through the questions until I read the last one:

"What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?"

Surely this was some kind of joke. I had seen the cleaning woman several times. She was tall, dark-haired and in her 50s, but how would I know her name?

I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank. Just before class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our quiz grade.

"Absolutely," said the professor. "In your careers, you will meet many people. All are significant. They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say "hello."

I've never forgotten that lesson. I also learned her name was Dorothy.

 

 

2. - Second Important Lesson - Pickup in the Rain

One night, at 11:30 p.m., an older African American woman was standing on the side of an Alabama highway trying to endure a lashing rainstorm. Her car had broken down and she desperately needed a ride. Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car. A young white man stopped to help her, generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960s. The MN took her to safety, helped her get assistance and put her into a taxicab.

She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his address and thanked him. Seven days went by and a knock came on the man's door. To his surprise, a giant console color TV was delivered to his home.  A special note was attached.

It read: "Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway the other night. The rain drenched not only my clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along. Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying husband's bedside just before he passed away... God bless you for helping me and unselfishly serving others."

 

 

3 - Third Important Lesson - Always remember those who serve.

In the days when an ice cream sundae cost much less, a 10-year-old boy entered a hotel coffee shop and sat at a table. A waitress put a glass of water in front of him.

"How much is an ice cream sundae?" he asked. "Fifty cents," replied the waitress. The little boy pulled is hand out of his pocket and studied the coins in it.

"Well, how much is a plain dish of ice cream?" he inquired.

By now more people were waiting for a table and the waitress was growing impatient.

"Thirty-five cents," she brusquely replied

The little boy again counted his coins.

"I'll have the plain ice cream," he said.

The waitress brought the ice cream, put the bill on the table and walked away. The boy finished the ice cream, paid the cashier and left. When the waitress came back, she began to cry as she wiped down the table. There, placed neatly beside the empty dish, were two nickels and five pennies.

You see, he couldn't have the sundae, because he had to have enough left to leave her a tip.

 

 

4 - Fourth Important Lesson. - The obstacle in Our Path.

In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the King for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way.

Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. After the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the King indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The peasant learned what many of us never understand!

Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve our condition.

 

 

5 - Fifth Important Lesson - Giving when it Counts...

Many years ago, when I worked as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Liz who was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the little boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister.

I saw him hesitate for only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, "Yes I'll do it, if it will save her." As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheeks. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded.

He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, "Will I start to die right away?"

Being young, the little boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood in order to save her.

"Work like you don't need the money, Love like you've never been hurt, and dance like you do when nobody's watching."

 

Dear Friends,

 

I guess there may be points of disagreements on various other situations mentioned earlier in this email but still the point that is being made is more intimate and to be felt by heart and not by mind. Hope we understand the content in the right sense and act wisely when it’s necessary to be ….

Hold every person Close to your Heart because you might wake up one day and realize that you have lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones. Remember this always in life.
