Touching thoughts

Reaction VS Response

2011-06-22T05:32:00.000-07:00

Suddenly, a cockroach flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. I wondered if this was the cockroaches response to all the glory that was spoken about it!

She started screaming out of fear. With panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group got cranky to what was happening. The lady finally managed to push the cockroach to another lady in the group.

Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behaviour of the cockroach on his shirt. When he was confident enough, he grabbed and threw it out with his fingers.

Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, the antenna of my mind picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their histrionic behaviour? If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed? He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos.

It is not the cockroach, but the inability of the ladies to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach that disturbed the ladies.

I realised even in my case then, it is not the shouting of my father or my boss that disturbs me, but its my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me. Its not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me. More than the problem, its my reaction to the problem that hurts me.

The Take-Away : The women reacted, whereas the waiter responded.

We should not react in life, we should always respond. Reactions are always instinctive whereas responses are always intellectual

Never Quit

2011-05-02T05:00:00.000-07:00

Never Quit... A small story

One day I decided to quit... I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality... I wanted to quit my life. I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.

"God", I said.

"Can you give me one good reason not to quit?" His answer surprised me... "Look around", He said. "Do you see the fern and the bamboo?"

"Yes", I replied.

"When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of them. I gave them light. I gave them water. The fern quickly grew from the earth. Its brilliant green covered the floor. Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed.

But I did not quit on the bamboo. In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful. And again, nothing came from the bamboo
seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo. He said.

In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit.

In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. I would not quit. He said.

"Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth. Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant...But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall. It had spent the five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."

He said to me. "Did you know that all this time you have been struggling, you have actually been growing roots?" "I would not quit on the bamboo. I will never quit on you."

"Don't compare yourself to others." He said. "The bamboo had a different purpose than the fern. Yet they both make the forest beautiful."

"Your time will come", God said to me. "You will rise high"

"How high should I rise?" I asked.

"How high will the bamboo rise?" He asked in return.

"As high as it can?" I questioned.

"Yes." He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can."

I left the forest and came back with this story.

I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on you.

"Sometimes we feel that we have certain weaknesses and we blame God, the circumstances and our self for it but we never know that our weakness can become our strength one day.._,___

OBITUARY

2009-12-18T22:26:00.000-08:00

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has
been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his
birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape..
He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
Knowing when to come in out of the rain; Why the early bird gets the
worm; Life isn't always fair; and maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend
more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children,
are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but
overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy
charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended
from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for
reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the
job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly
children.

It declined even further when schools were required to get parental
consent to administer sun lotion or an Aspirin to a student; but could
not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an
abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses;
and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a
burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to
realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in
her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by
his wife, Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son,
Reason.
He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers:
I Know My Rights
I Want It Now
Someone Else Is To Blame
I'm A Victim

Root Cause Analysis

2009-06-18T02:38:00.000-07:00

An Interesting Customer Complaint

This is a real story that happened between the customer of General
Motors and its customer-care executive. A complaint was received by
the Pontiac Division of General Motors: This is the second time I
have written to you, and I don't blame you for not answering me,
because I sounded crazy, but it is a fact that we have a tradition in
our family of ice cream for dessert after dinner each night. But the
kind of ice cream varies, so every night, after we've eaten the whole
family votes on which kind of ice cream we should have and I drive
down to the store to get it.

It's also a fact that I recently purchased a new Pontiac and since
then my trips to the store have created a problem. You see, every time
I buy a vanilla ice cream, when I start back from the store my car
won't start.

If I get any other kind of ice cream, the car starts just fine.

I want you to know I'm serious about this question, no matter how
silly it sounds: "What is there about a Pontiac that makes it not
start when I get vanilla ice cream, and easy to start whenever I get
any other kind?"

The Pontiac President was understandably skeptical about the letter,
but sent an engineer to check it out anyway. The latter was surprised
to be greeted by a successful, obviously well educated man in a fine
neighborhood. He had arranged to meet the man just after dinnertime,
so the two hopped into the car and drove to the ice cream store. It
was vanilla ice cream that night and, sure enough, after they came
back to the car, it wouldn't start.

The engineer returned for three more nights. The first night, they got
chocolate. The car started. The second night, he got strawberry. The
car started. The third night he ordered vanilla. The car failed to
start.

Now the engineer, being a logical man, refused to believe that this
man's car was allergic to vanilla ice cream. He arranged, therefore,
to continue his visits for as long as it took to solve the problem.
And towards this end he began to take notes, he jotted down all sorts
of data: time of day, type of gas used, time to drive back and forth
etc. In a short time, he had a clue: the man took less time to buy
vanilla than any other flavor. Why? The answer was in the layout of
the store. Vanilla, being the most popular flavor, was in a separate
case at the front of the store for quick pickup. All the other
flavors were kept in the back of the store at a different counter
where it took considerably longer to check out the flavor. Now, the
question for the engineer was, why the car wouldn't start when it took
less time. Once time became the problem and not the vanilla
ice-cream, the engineer quickly came up with the answer: "Vapor
lock". It was happening every night; but the extra time taken to get
the other flavors allowed the engine to cool down sufficiently to
start. When the man got vanilla, the engine was still to hot for the
vapor lock to dissipate.

Remember: Even crazy-looking problems are sometimes real and all
problems seem to be simple only when we find the solution with a cool
thinking.

LINDA's Bar

2009-05-05T05:06:00.000-07:00

LINDA's Bar

Linda is the proprietor of a bar in Cork . In order to
increase sales, she decides to allow her loyal customers - most of whom are
unemployed alcoholics - to drink now but pay later.

She keeps track of the drinks consumed on a ledger (thereby granting the
customers loans).

Word gets around and as a result increasing numbers of customers flood into
Linda's bar. Taking advantage of her customers' freedom from immediate
payment constraints, Linda increases her prices for wine and beer, the
most-consumed beverages. Her sales volume increases massively.

A young and dynamic customer service consultant at the local bank recognizes
these customer debts as valuable future assets and increases Linda's borrowing
limit. He sees no reason for undue concern since he has the debts of the
alcoholics as collateral. At the bank's corporate headquarters, expert
bankers transform these customer assets into DRINKBONDS, ALKBONDS and
PUKEBONDS. These securities are then traded on markets worldwide.

No one really understands what these abbreviations mean and how the securities
are guaranteed. Nevertheless, as their prices continuously climb, the
securities become top-selling items.

One day, although the prices are still climbing, a risk manager (subsequently
of course fired due to his negativity) of the bank decides that slowly the time
has come to demand payment of the debts incurred by the drinkers at Linda's
bar. However they cannot pay back the debts.

Linda cannot fulfill her loan obligations and claims bankruptcy. DRINKBOND
and ALKBOND drop in price by 95 %. PUKEBOND performs better, stabilizing in
price after dropping by 80%.

The suppliers of Linda's bar, having granted her generous payment due dates and
having invested in the securities are faced with a new situation. Her wine
supplier claims bankruptcy, her beer supplier is taken over by a competitor.

The bank is saved by the Government following dramatic round-the-clock
consultations by leaders from the governing political parties (and vested
interests). The funds required for this purpose are obtained by a tax levied on
the non-drinkers.

What is the right decision?

2009-05-05T02:17:00.000-07:00

*Insight into Decision Making - Good One:*

A group of children were playing near two railway tracks, one still in use

while the other disused. Only one child played on the disused track, the

rest on the operational track.

The train is coming, and you are just beside the track interchange. You can

make the train change its course to the disused track and save most of the

kids. However, that would also mean the lone child playing by the disused

track would be sacrificed. Or would you rather let the train go its way?

Let's take a pause to think what kind of decision we could make........

........

Scroll down

Scroll down further

Most people might choose to divert the course of the train, and sacrifice

only one child. You might think the same way, I guess. Exactly, to save most

of the children at the expense of only one child was rational decision most

people would make, morally and emotionally. But, have you ever thought that

the child choosing to play on the disused track had in fact made the right

decision to play at a safe place?

Nevertheless, he had to be sacrificed because of his ignorant friends who

chose to play where the danger was. This kind of dilemma happens around us

everyday. In the office, community, in politics and especially in a

democratic society, the minority is often sacrificed for the interest of the

majority, no matter how foolish or ignorant the majority are, and how

farsighted and knowledgeable the minority are. The child who chose not to

play with the rest on the operational track was sidelined. And in the case

he was sacrificed, no one would shed a tear for him.

The great critic Leo Velski Julian who told the story said he would not try

to change the course of the train because he believed that the kids playing

on the operational track should have known very well that track was still in

use, and that they should have run away if they heard the train's sirens..

If the train was diverted, that lone child would definitely die because he

never thought the train could come over to that track! Moreover, that track

was not in use probably because it was not safe. If the train was diverted

to the track, we could put the lives of all passengers on board at stake!

And in your attempt to save a few kids by sacrificing one child, you might

end up sacrificing hundreds of people to save these few kids.

While we are all aware that life is full of tough decisions that need to be
javascript:void(0)
made, we may not realize that hasty decisions may not always be the right

one. *

'Remember that what's right isn't always popular... and what's popular isn't

always right.'

Everybody makes mistakes; that's why they put erasers on pencils.*

Today I will invest

my most valuable resource:my time,

in the most trascendental work:

of today a different
and unique day in my life.

Today I will defy every obstacule
that appears on my way trusting

I will succeed.

Today I will resist

pesimism and will conquer

the world with a smile,
with the positive attitude

of expecting always the best.

Today I will make of every ordinary task
a sublime expression,

Today I will have my feet on the ground

understanding reality

and the stars' gaze

to invent my future.

Today I will take the time to be happy
and will leave my footprints and my presence

in the hearts of others.

Today, I invite you to begin a new season

where we can dream

that everything we undertake is possible

and we fulfil it,

with joy and dignity.

Nice poem

2008-12-24T08:48:00.000-08:00

Around the corner I have a friend,

In this great city that has no end,

Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,

And before I know it, a year is gone.

And I never see my old friend face,

For life is a swift and terrible race,

He knows I like him just as well,

As in the days when I rang his bell.

And he rang mine but we were younger then,

And now we are busy, tired men.

Tired of playing a foolish game,

Tired of trying to make a name.

"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on …….

Just to show that I'm thinking of him."

But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,

And distance between us grows and grows.

Around the corner, yet miles away,

"Here's a telegram sir," "….. died today."

And that's what we get and deserve in the end.

Around the corner, a vanished friend.

Remember to always say what you mean.

If you love someone, tell them.

Don't be afraid to express yourself.

Reach out and tell someone what they mean to you.

Because when you decide that it is the right time it might

be too late.

Seize the day. Never have regrets.

And most importantly, stay close to your friend

for they have helped

make you the person that you are today.

A Tooth Problem

A woman and her husband interrupted their vacation to go to the dentist. "I want a tooth pulled, and I don't want any pain killers because I'm in a big hurry," the woman said. "Just extract the tooth as quickly as possible, and we'll be on our way."

The dentist was quite impressed. "You're certainly a courageous woman," he said. "Which tooth is it?" The woman turned to her husband and said, "Show him your tooth, dear."
________________________________________

Importance of Sleep

A man can go two weeks without eating. But if he doesn't rest at all, he can only survive for one week. Sleeping provides us the time to rest our internal organs, eyes and brains. Poor sleep quality can cause internal damage to our internal organs and brains.
Therefore, sleeping is very important to us. If you wish to have a long life and stay healthy, please take note of the advice below.

5 DON'TS when you are sleeping :

1-DON'T SLEEP WITH WATCH :
Watches can emit a certain level of radioactivity. Though small, but if you wear your watch to bed for a long time, it might have adverse effects on your health.

3-DON'T SLEEP WITH PHONE :
Putting the phone beside your bed or anywhere near you is not encouraged. Though some of us will use phones as alarm clocks, but please put the phone as far as possible. Scientists have proved that electrical items including mobile phone and television sets emit magnetic waves when used. These waves can cause disruptions to our nervous system.
Therefore if you need to put your mobile phone near you, switch it off first.

4-DON'T SLEEP WITH MAKE UP :
People who sleep with make up might have skin problems in the long run. Sleeping with make up will cause the skin to have difficulty in breathing and problem in perspiring. You will also need a much longer time to go into deep sleep.

5-DON'T SLEEP WITH OTHERS' WIFE :
You may never wake up again.

Can you pass this test?

Below are the Interview Questions, which were asked in HR Round.....

No one will GET second chance to impress....

Very very Impressive Questions and Answers..... ...

Question 1: You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night, it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for a bus:

An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.

An old friend who once saved your life.

The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car?

This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.

* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first;

* or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to ! pay him back.

* However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.

The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer. Guess what was his answer?

He simply answered:

"I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams."

Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."

Question 2: What will you do if I run away with your sister?"

The candidate who was selected answered " I will not get a better match for my sister than you sir"

Question 3: Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) - What is one morning you woke up & found that you were pregnant.

Girl - I will be very excited and take an off, to celebrate with my husband.

Normally an unmarried girl will be shocked to hear this, but she managed it well. Why I should think it in the wrong way, she said later when asked

Question 4: Interviewer: He ordered a cup of coffee for the candidate. Coffee arrived kept before the candidate, then he asked what is before you?

Candidate: Instantly replied "Tea"

He got selected.

You know how and why did he say "TEA" when he knows very well that coffee was kept before.

(Answer: The question was "What is before you (U - alphabet)

Reply was "TEA" ( T - alphabet)

Alphabet "T" was before Alphabet "U"

Question 5: Where Lord Rama would have celebrated his "First Diwali"? People will start thinking of Ayodya, Mitila [Janaki's place], Lanka etc...

But the logic is, Diwali was a celebrated as a mark of Lord Krishna Killing Narakasura . In Dusavataar, Krishnavathaar comes after Raamavathaar.

So, Lord Rama would not have celebrated the Diwali At all!

Question 6: The interviewer asked to the candidate "This is your last question of the interview. Please tell me the exact position of the center of this table where u have kept your files."

Candidate confidently put one of his finger at some point at the table and told that this was the central point at the table. Interviewer asked how did u get to know that this being the central point of this table, then he answers quickly that sir u r not likely to ask any more question, as it was the last question that u promised to ask.....

And hence, he was selected as because of his quick-wittedness. .........

Mayonnaise Jar and 2 cups of coffee....

2007-01-21T08:37:00.000-08:00

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle,when 24 hours in
a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar .. and the 2 cups of
coffee... A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items
in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very
large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students if the jar was full.They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the
jar.He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then
asked the students again if the jar was full.

They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it in
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of
course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar
was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes."

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the
table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the
empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to
recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things -

God
- Family
- Your children
- Your health
- Your friends,
- and your favorite passions -- things that if everything else was
lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your
house,
and your car.

The sand is everything else -- the small stuff.

"If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is
no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small
stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

story writer: Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play with your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.
Play another 18.

There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal."

Take care of the golf balls first -- the things that really matter.

Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee
represented.

The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that
no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a cup of
coffee with a friend."

Story # 1

It's a fine sunny day in the forest and a lion is sitting
outside his cave,
lying in the sun. Along comes a fox, out on a walk.

Fox: "Do you know the time, because my watch is broken"

Lion: "Oh, I can easily fix the watch for you"

Fox: "Hmm... But it's a very complicated mechanism, and your
big claws will
only destroy it even more"

Lion: "Oh no, give it to me, and it will be fixed"

Fox: "That's ridiculous! Any fool knows that lazy lions with
great claws
cannot fix complicated watches"

Lion: "Sure they do, give it to me and it will be fixed"

The lion disappears into his cave, and after a while he
comes back with the
watch which is running perfectly. The fox is impressed, and
the lion
continues to lie lazily in the sun, looking very pleased
with himself.

Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the lazy lion in
the sun.

Wolf: "Can I come and watch TV tonight with you, because
mine is broken"

Lion: "Oh, I can easily fix your TV for you"
Wolf: "You don't expect me to believe such rubbish, do you?
There is no way
that a lazy lion with big claws can fix a complicated TV"

Lion: "No problem. Do you want to try it?"

The lion goes into his cave, and after a while comes back
with a perfectly
fixed TV. The wolf goes away happily and amazed.

Scene :

Inside the lion's cave. In one corner are half a dozen small
and intelligent
looking rabbits who are busily doing very complicated work
with very
detailed instruments. In the other corner lies a huge lion
looking very
pleased with himself.

Moral :

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY A MANAGER IS FAMOUS; LOOK AT THE
WORK OF HIS
SUBORDINATES.

Management Lesson
In the context of the working world :

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY SOMEONE UNDESERVED IS PROMOTED; LOOK
AT THE WORK OF
HIS SUBORDINATES.

Story # 2

It's a fine sunny day in the forest and a rabbit is sitting
outside his
burrow, tippy-tapping on his typewriter. Along comes a fox,
out for a walk.

Fox: "What are you working on?"
Rabbit: "My thesis."
Fox: "Hmm... What is it about?"
Rabbit: "Oh, I'm writing about how rabbits eat foxes."

Fox: "That's ridiculous ! Any fool knows that rabbits don't
eat foxes!"

Rabbit: "Come with me and I'll show you!"

They both disappear into the rabbit's burrow. After few
minutes, gnawing on
a fox bone, the rabbit returns to his typewriter and resumes
typing.

Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the hardworking
rabbit.

Wolf: "What's that you are writing?"
Rabbit: "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat wolves."

Wolf: "you don't expect to get such rubbish published, do
you?"

Rabbit: "No problem. Do you want to see why?"

The rabbit and the wolf go into the burrow and again the
rabbit returns by
himself, after a few minutes, and goes back to typing.

Finally a bear comes along and asks, "What are you doing?

Rabbit: "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat bears."

Bear: "Well that's absurd ! "

Rabbit: "Come into my home and I'll show you"

Scene :

As they enter the burrow, the rabbit introduces the bear to
the lion.

Moral:

IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW SILLY YOUR THESIS TOPIC IS; WHAT
MATTERS IS WHOM YOU
HAVE AS A SUPERVISOR.

Management Lesson
In the context of the working world:

IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW BAD YOUR PERFORMANCE IS; WHAT MATTERS
IS WHETHER YOUR
BOSS LIKES YOU OR NOT.

WHY EMPLOYEES LEAVE ORGANISATIONS

2006-12-06T00:40:00.000-08:00

WHY EMPLOYEES LEAVE ORGANISATIONS ? - Azim Premji, CEO- Wipro

Every company faces the problem of people leaving the company for better
pay or profile.

Early this year, Mark, a senior software designer, got an offer from a
prestigious international firm to work in its India operations
developing
specialized software. He was thrilled by the offer.

He had heard a lot about the CEO. The salary was great. The company had
all
the right systems in place employee-friendly human resources (HR)
policies,
a spanking new office,and the very best technology,even a canteen that
served superb food.

Twice Mark was sent abroad for training. "My learning curve is the
sharpest
it's ever been," he said soon after he joined.

Last week, less than eight months after he joined, Mark walked out of
the
job.

Why did this talented employee leave ?

Arun quit for the same reason that drives many good people away.

The answer lies in one of the largest studies undertaken by the Gallup
Organization. The study surveyed over a million employees and 80,000
managers and was published in a book called "First Break All The Rules".
It
came up with this surprising finding:

If you're losing good people, look to their immediate boss .Immediate
boss
is the reason people stay and thrive in an organization. And he 's the
reason why people leave. When people leave they take
knowledge,experience
and contacts with them, straight to the competition.

"People leave managers not companies," write the authors Marcus
Buckingham
and Curt Coffman.

Mostly manager drives people away?

HR experts say that of all the abuses, employees find humiliation the
most
intolerable. The first time, an employee may not leave,but a thought has
been planted. The second time, that thought gets strengthened. The third
time, he looks for another job.

When people cannot retort openly in anger, they do so by passive
aggression. By digging their heels in and slowing down. By doing only
what
they are told to do and no more. By omitting to give the boss crucial
information. Dev says: "If you work for a jerk, you basically want to
get
him into trouble. You don 't have your heart and soul in the job."

Different managers can stress out employees in different ways - by being
too controlling, too suspicious,too pushy, too critical, but they forget
that workers are not fixed assets, they are free agents. When this goes
on
too long, an employee will quit - often over a trivial issue.

Talented men leave. Dead wood doesn't.

POLICIES & PROCEDURES

2006-10-14T06:40:00.000-07:00

POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

Put eight monkeys in a room. In the middle of the room is a ladder, leading
to a bunch of bananas hanging from a hook on the ceiling. Each time a monkey
tries to climb the ladder, all the monkeys are sprayed with ice water, which
makes them miserable. Soon enough, whenever a monkey attempts to climb the
ladder, all of the other monkeys, not wanting to be sprayed, set upon him and
beat him up. Soon, none of the eight monkeys ever attempts to climb the
ladder.
One of the original monkeys is then removed, and a new monkey is put in the
room. Seeing the bananas and the ladder, he wonders why none of the other
monkeys are doing the obvious, but, undaunted, he immediately begins to climb
the ladder. All the other monkeys fall upon him and beat him silly. He has no
idea why. However, he no longer attempts to climb the ladder.
A second original monkey is removed and replaced. The newcomer again
attempts to climb the ladder, but all the other monkeys hammer the crap out of him.
This includes the previous new monkey, who, grateful that he's not on the
receiving end this time, participates in the beating because all the other
monkeys are doing it. However, he has no idea why he's attacking the new monkey.
One by one, all the original monkeys are replaced.
Eight new monkeys are now in the room. None of them have ever been sprayed
by ice water. None of them attempt to climb the ladder. All of them will
enthusiastically beat up any new monkey who tries, without having any idea why.
AND THAT'S HOW VERY MANY COMPANY POLICIES & PROCEDURES GET ESTABLISHED.

A soldier stationed in Afghanistan recently received a letter from his
girlfriend back home. It read as follows:

Dear Ricky,
I can no longer continue our relationship. The distance between us is
just too great. I'm sorry. Please return the picture of me that I sent to
you.

Love, Becky

The soldier, with hurt feelings, asked his fellow soldiers for any
snapshots they could spare of their girlfriends, sisters or ex-girlfriends.

In addition to the picture of Becky, Ricky included all the other pictures
of the pretty gals he had collected from his buddies. There were 57 photos
in that envelope along with this note:

Dear Becky,
I'm so sorry, but I can't quite remember who the hell you are.
Please take your picture from the pile, and send the rest back to me.

Take Care,
Ricky

Moral of the story: If you can't change your fate, change your attitude.

Doctor

2006-10-06T02:12:00.000-07:00

A mechanic was removing the cylinder heads from the motor of a car when he spotted the famous heart surgeon in his shop, who was standing off to the side, waiting for the service manager to come to take a look at his car. The mechanic shouted across the garage, "Hello Doctor! Please come over here for a minute."

The famous surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic. The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked argumentatively, "So doctor, look at this. I also open hearts, take valves out, grind 'em, put in new parts, and when I finish this will work as a new one. So how come you get the big money, when you and me are doing basically the same work? " The doctor leaned over and whispered to the mechanic ...

2006-09-25T04:41:00.000-07:00

This is the story of a young bright man
Who was a qualified engineer
Who wanted to rise to the top of his clan
And have a scintillating career

He graduated from a premier t-school
With good if not the best grades
And like the rest of us, landed in the IT cesspool
Earned lotsa money, drove a fancy bike and wore Ray Ban shades

In the first year into his employment,
He learnt a lot, he worked hard and smart
His life was filled with work and enjoyment
He hoped it would all pay off, this was just a start

VB, VC, C++ and java,
Unix, Sun, Linux and windows
His tech skills were red hot like lava
Little did he know that these were to be his biggest foes

Things became a little monotonous, in the next year or two
There wasnt much to draw him to office on a monday morning
To advance his career, he tried everything he could do
But each time he was bypassed without prior notice or warning

He couldnt figure out what he did wrong
He wondered where he was going astray
Until one day, a bell in his mind went ding dong
And he realized "I need an MBA!!!"

So he studied for every management test
JMET, GMAT, XAT and CAT
For his job he lost all zest
He used to disappear from office at the drop of a hat

Bright as he was, he cracked every exam
And chose to go to the country's best b-school
His manager tried to retain him, he didnt give a damn
And to the annals of history was added the tale of another misguided fool

At b-school, the course-work hit him like a ton of bricks
He barely had time to eat and never enough sleep
Constantly toiling from eight to six
He felt like a bollywood villian, tied to the back of a speeding jeep

The stuff he studied, all seemed like simple common sense
But it was made out to be the cleverest thing around
It was embellished and polished with masterful pretense
Redundant with banalities, jargon abound

Thro two agonizing years he struggled
Barely managing to maintain a respectable GPA
But one question always had him puzzled
Why the hell was he doing all this anyway ?

Come placement season, there is tension in the air
There's fierce competition for every job on offer
Nobody takes chances, they all apply everywhere
Dressed in their best suits, clean shaven, prim and proper

He doesnt get a job on day zero or one
He apparently doesnt have what it takes
He gets a job on day two to the amazement of no one
The package is peanuts compared to what an i-banker makes

Another bright engineer following age-old tradition
Another reluctant manager, who does what he does because he must
Walking down the dark road to management perdition
Another one bites the dust

It was raining heavily outside. Dark clouds gathered in the sky and nature was in its ominous best. I took a break from my work and went to the pantry to grab a cup of coffee. I had a sip and went near the window to see the rain pouring down heavily outside the glass structure. I was inside our huge office building, unruffled by even the fierceness of the nature. Through the heavy transparent glass, I could see a small girl trying to hold on to her umbrella which the wind was snatching away from her. I felt sorry for the girl, and was happy that I was not in a similar pathetic situation. Yes. I take pride for the fact that I am a software engineer. . I have everything which a common man would envy; money, status, respect, you name it I have it. I always wanted to be software professional and here I am, working for one of the best firms in the world. But then, am I really happy? Now, I could see an imprint of my palm on the other glass window, through which I reminisced my past, basked in the warmth of the sun shine.

My childhood was so much of fun. I vividly remember those rainy days, when I hugged my mother tightly during sleeping listening to all the stories told by her. Now, I have a big house here, but then it is just a house, not a home. My parents are pretty far away from me now. I have a cell phone to talk to them everyday, but then I really miss those dinners which I had with my family everyday. I could easily afford to taste all the different cuisines these days, but the best of food there, lack the love and affection which is present in the food prepared by my mother.

I threw a lavish party for my colleagues for my birthday, but then they would never replace the birthdays when my friends secretly brought a cake and at the end, half of the cake would have ended up on my face. The couple of hundred bucks that u save for a long period just to give a treat to your friends in the road side chat shop can never give the pleasure even after spending a few thousand bucks these days.

The scene of me crying and refusing to have dinner on the day when I fought with my best friend came to my mind. Today, she has gone far away from me, taking away my love and with it my life, but I am sitting and coding here with a false smile on my face. Everyday I meet new people, but then I long ceased to make a new friend.

It's true that I have a lot of things now. I have a nice bed, but no time to sleep. Lots of money, but no friends to spend it with. The latest designer clothes, but a worn out body. Quite a few to flirt, but no one to love. Awards for technical excellence, but no reward for the crave for peaceful ambience. A confident demeanor, but a reluctant and apathetic mind. Full of rain, but no sunshine even in the farthest distance.

Now, I could see the small girl on the road enjoying in the rain with her umbrella firmly in her grip. She might not have all the comforts which I have, but then she has the innocence and fun which I lost a long time back. I have decided to come out of this false fantasy, even if it is at the expense of losing the tap of the software engineer. I am going to again enjoy my life. I am going to go out in the rain and play with the small kid now. I removed my tie, and went near my computer to shut it down. Just then, I saw a new mail alert in my mail box. I slowly opened outlook and I found a message from my manager with an attachment saying that there was a critical defect in the code and I have to fix it soon. I convinced myself that I am not going to get bogged down again by these pressures and stick to my decision. I ignored the mail and went to the rest room. After a couple of minutes, the software engineer in me came out, his shirt tucked in with the perfect tie knot, sat before the computer, and started typing,

XYZ,

I am looking into the defect and will send the patch files before EOD.

Regards,

Me.

Letter from GOD

2006-03-27T07:21:00.000-08:00

o My
Beloved........

As you got up this morning,
I watched you, and hoped
you would talk to me, even if it
was just a few words, asking
my opinion or thanking me
for something good that
happened in your life yesterday.
But I noticed you were too
busy, trying to find the
right outfit to wear.

When you ran around the house
getting ready, I knew there
would be a few minutes for
you to stop and say hello,
but you were to busy.
At one point you had to
wait fifteen minutes with
nothing to do except
sit in a chair.
Then I saw you spring to
your feet. I thought you
wanted to talk to me but
you ran to the phone and
called a friend to get
the latest gossip, instead.
I watched patiently all day long.
With all our activities I guess
you were too busy
to say anything to me.

I noticed that before lunch
you looked around, maybe
you felt embarrassed to
talk to me,that is why
you didn't bow your head.
You glanced three or four
tables over and you noticed
some of your friends talking
to me briefly before they ate,
but you didn't. That's okay.
There is still more time left,
and I hope that you will talk to me yet.

You went home and it seems
as if you had lots of things to do.

After a few of them were done,
you turned on the TV.
I don't know if you like TV or not,
just about anything goes there
and you spend a lot of time
each day in front of it not
thinking about anything, just
enjoying the show. I waited
patiently again as you watched
the TV and ate your meal, but
again you didn't talk to me.

Bedtime I guess you felt too tired.
After you said "goodnight" to your
family you plopped into bed and
fell asleep in no time.
That's okay because you
may not realize that
I am always there for you.....
I've got patience, more than
you will ever know. I even
want to teach you how to
be patient with others as well.

I love you so much that
I wait everyday for a nod,
prayer or thought, or a thankful
part of your heart.
It is hard to have a one-sided conversation.

Well, you are getting up once again. Once again I will wait, with
nothing but love for you. Hoping that today you will give me some time.

Have a nice day!
Yours
GOD

look inside

2006-03-27T01:37:00.000-08:00

We all have three eyes. Two for looking out and one for looking in. Why
would we want to look in when everything is happening 'out there'? Because
the treasure we seek is inside, not outside. What is treasure? Beauty,
truth, peace, happiness. You already have what you seek. You already are
stunningly beautiful. You are already peaceful and loving. How come you
don't know this? Simple, you never look inwards, beyond superficial memories
or recent experiences, so you never see your own riches. Take a moment to
stop, look in and see. Don't rush. Don't search. Just look. And be aware.

Dog's life

2006-03-27T01:35:00.000-08:00

A butcher watching over his shop is really surprised when he sees a dog coming inside the shop. He shoos him away. But later, the dog is back again. So, he goes over to the dog and notices it has a note in its mouth.

He takes the note and it reads "Can I have 12 sausages and a leg of lamb, please? The dog has money in its mouth, as well."

The butcher looks inside and, lo and behold, there is a ten dollar note there. So he takes the money and puts the sausages and lamb in a bag, placing it in the dog's mouth. The butcher is so impressed, and since it's about closing time, he decides to shut the shop and follow the dog.

So off he goes. The dog is walking down the street, when it comes to a level crossing; the dog puts down the bag, jumps up and presses the button. Then it waits patiently, bag in mouth, for the lights to turn. They do, and it walks across the road, with the butcher following him all the way.

The dog then comes to a bus stop, and starts looking at the timetable. The butcher is in awe as the dog stops a bus by pulling its left leg up and gets in it. The butcher follows the dog into the bus. The dog then shows a ticket which is tied to its belt to the bus conductor. The butcher is nearly fainting at this sight, so are the other passengers in the bus. The dog then sits near the driver's seat looking outside. As soon as the stop is in sight, the dog stands and wags its tail to inform the conductor. Then, without waiting for the bus to stop completely, it jumps out of the bus and runs to a house very close to the stop.

It opens the big Iron Gate and rushes inside towards the door. As it approaches the wooden door, the dog suddenly changes its mind and heads towards the garden. It goes to the window, and beats its head against it several times, walks back, jumps off, and waits at the door. The butcher watches as a big guy opens the door, and starts abusing the dog, kicking him and punching him, and swearing at him. The butcher surprised with this, runs up, and stops the guy.

"What in heaven's name are you doing? The dog is a genius. He could be on TV, for the life of me! "To which the guy responds: "You call this clever? This is the second time this week that this stupid dog's forgotten his key."

Moral of the story.....
You may continue to exceed onlookers expectations but shall always fall short of the boss' expectations.
It's a dog's life after all.....

Decision Making

2006-03-27T01:34:00.000-08:00

10 Steps To Better Decision Making

Considering The Possibilities

1. Making a difficult choice can seem harrowing when you feel you're working alone. Involve others in your decision making by asking for criticism and seeking advice from those who can approach the choice from a fresh perspective. Listen to opinions that fall on both sides of the topic at hand. You may also want to consult an expert.

2. Learn from your mistakes as well as your triumphs. Examine decisions you have made in the past as they will teach you more than you will learn from most other sources. Though some decisions will not seem important, all decisions shape our lives and should be regarded as educational. Apply that knowledge to your current dilemma.

3. A good decision acted upon in a timely matter is always better than a great one acted upon too late. It is important to recognize that you will never know enough to make the perfect decision. Don't become paralyzed by your need to foresee all possible outcomes to every possible choice.

4. Involve your head and your heart. Ask both practical questions and personal questions about the problem at hand. Considering the facts as well as your feelings (and the feelings of others) when examining your options will ensure that you make a balanced decision.

5. Before anything else, focus on the most basic, necessary results. Often, a decision maker will get bogged down thinking about the non-essential elements of a decision. Avoid considering extraneous factors and far-fetched perfect outcomes. Ask yourself, "What needs to be done?"

6. Consider the entire range of possibilities, no matter how unlikely. When faced with a complex decision, brainstorm by yourself or with others to find as many of the vital elements as possible. Evaluate those elements as they relate to the choice you must make.

7. It was a wise person who noted that, "you can't please all of the people all of the time." Almost all decisions will involve some dissatisfaction or conflict. Some decisions may even create new problems. Once you have made a decision, stand by it. Keep in mind that you have used your best judgment and it was the best choice at the time.

8. Don't waste time on poor choices. Reject poor choices, even if you've begun to implement them, and stop doing the things that aren't working, so you can focus on the solutions that have strong potential.

9. Consult with the people who will be directly affected by your decision. People appreciate being heard and enjoy when their opinions are seen as valuable. Even making a simple choice can have a profound impact on those around you.

10. It is easy to dismiss your intuition, but in doing so, you may be disregarding valuable insight and even solutions. Ask yourself what choices you would make if you weren't afraid and then see what your subconscious offers as an answer. Try to ignore the fear of error when consulting your "gut."

spirituality in the workplace

2006-03-27T01:33:00.000-08:00

7 ways to spirituality in the workplace

You are a spiritual being, even at work! Use your intuitive awareness and natural empathy and kindness in the workplace and you will be amazed by the way that others respond. Show them that their contribution is important...

Spirituality is not something we should practice only when it suits us according to time and place.It should be cherished and cultivated wherever we go. And since we spend most of our time in the workplace, it is imperative that we take our spiritual values with us even where we work. These values are creativity, communication, respect, vision, partnership, energy and flexibility. All these seven are related, and all are important.

By spirituality, we mean expressing more humanity; it has no religious component or preference. This interpretation is important since each person has their own beliefs, which should be respected.

1. Be creative

Creativity includes the use of color, laughter and freedom to enhance productivity. Creativity is fun. When people enjoy what they do, they work much harder.

Creativity includes conscious efforts to see things differently, to break out of habits and outdated beliefs to find new ways of thinking, doing and being.

Suppression of creativity leads to violence - people are naturally creative. When they are forced to crush their creativity, its energy force turns to destructive release - their inherent humanity must express itself!

2. Communicate

Communication, communication, communication! This is the vehicle that allows people to work together. In our society, our learning process is based on learning to communicate with teachers and parents.

So when we come to the real world, this social conditioning leads us to resort to subterfuge - trying to figure out how to beat the system,gain extra favours, say the “popular” thing or to keep our views to ourselves rather than “rock the boat.”

We should change this mindset and express what we feel about without fear and let others know where we stand. It doesn’t matter your views should match your superiors. Your peers will respect you as a man with principles.

3. Respect your colleagues

Respect of self and of others includes: respect for the environment; other people’s personal privacy, their physical space and belongings; different viewpoints, philosophies, religion, gender, lifestyle, ethnic origin, physical ability, beliefs and personality.

When we learn to respect our peers, we accept their differences. We can learn to use those differences for our mutual benefit. For example, the person who can sit all day in front of a computer and be productive can help the person who works best by talking and moving around. Both functions are important. Rather than criticising the other for being different, we can learn how different people see the world. Lack of respect and acceptance lead to conflict and hostility.

4. Have a vision

Vision means seeing beyond the obvious - seeing the unseen. It is a trait used to describe leaders and entrepreneurs. Where does vision come from? For some people, it is an inborn trait. They have always seen things that others cannot see. And, having seen the vision, they head straight for it ! They follow their vision in spite of obstacles or non-believers.

5. Learn to be a partner
Partnership encompasses individual responsibility and trust that other people will perform according to their commitments for the good of the team and partners. Partnership accepts that different people have different viewpoints and beliefs; those differences are used as positive aspects for broadening the team experience.
Partnership encourages the female and male aspects of ourselves to work together, without either one over-ruling or dominating the other. Lack of partnership leads to isolation and unhealthy competition.

6. Be energetic

Very positive energy forces are released when people feel creative, have the freedom to express their opinions, and feel respect from their management and their peers. The opposite energy force creates hostile workplace situations.

Your contribution to the collective positive energy is using your own creativity, communicating well, having respect for others, adapting to changing situations, working well with others and enjoying what you do. Your contribution to the collective negative energy is withholding your talents, communicating without respect, fighting and arguing with others, resisting changes, creating tension with others and hating what you do.

7.Be flexible

Flexibility includes the ability to adapt to changing situations and allowing one’s own beliefs and habits to change as needed. Learning to see trends and prepare for them is one way of learning flexibility. Another is to learn about ourselves, our own strengths and our weaknesses.

Then, work to operate from our strength, allowing others to help us with our weaknesses.
BUILDING SPIRITUALITY IN THE WORKPLACE
Verbally recognize the value of individuals in all you do
• Get to know the people with whom you work and know what is important to them
• State your personal ethics and your beliefs clearly
• Support causes outside the business
• Encourage leaders to use value-based discretion in making decisions
• Demonstrate your own self-knowledge and spirituality in all your actions
• Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

Stanford University story

2006-02-27T05:39:00.000-08:00

A lady in a faded gingham dress and her husband,dressed in a homespun
threadbare suit, stepped off the train in Boston, and walked timidly
without an appointment into the outer office of the President of Harvard
University.

The secretary could tell in a moment that such backwoods, country hicks
had no business at Harvard and probably didn't even deserve to be in
Cambridge. She frowned. "We want to see the president," the man
said
softly. "He'll be busy all day," the secretary snapped.
"We'll wait," the
lady replied.

For hours, the secretary ignored them, hoping that the couple would
finally become discouraged and go away. They didn't. And the secretary
grew frustrated and finally decided to disturb the president, even though
it was a chore she always regretted to do. "Maybe if they just see you
for a few minutes, they'll leave," she told him. And he signed in
exasperation
and nodded. Someone of his importance obviously didn't have the time to
spend with them, but he detested gingham dresses and homespun suits
cluttering up his outer office.

The president, stern-faced with dignity, strutted toward the couple. The
lady told him, "We had a son that attended Harvard for one year. He
loved
Harvard. He was happy here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally
killed. And my husband and I would like to erect a memorial to him,
somewhere on campus." The president wasn't touched; he was shocked.

"Madam," he said gruffly, "We can't put up a statue for
every person who
attended Harvard and died. If we did,this place would look like a
cemetery." "Oh, no," the lady explained quickly, "We
don't want to erect
a statue. We thought we would like to give a building to Harvard."
The president rolled his eyes. He glanced at the gingham dress and homespun
suit, then exclaimed, "A building! Do you have any earthly idea how
much a building costs? We have over seven and a half million dollars in the
physical plant at Harvard."

For a moment the lady was silent. The president was pleased. He could get
rid of them now. And the lady turned to her husband and said quietly,
"Is that all it costs to start a University? Why don't we just start our own?"
Her husband nodded. The president's face wilted in confusion and bewilderment.
And Mr. and Mrs. Leland Stanford walked away, traveling to Palo Alto,
California, where they established the University that bears their name, a
memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about.

Today Stanford University is the Best in the World in Technical Education.
BETTER than The BEST.

Sometimes first impressions are wrong. Someone might look like a chunk of
gold, and quickly rust. Or we might turn away someone with drive,loyalty,
ambition, determination, etc. We hear that what goes around,comes around.
Just in case that might actually be true and in case you have ever felt
under appreciated, then you might consider taking advantage of the next
opportunity to look a little deeper for the goodness in others.

LITTLE VITO ON MATH

2006-02-27T03:49:00.000-08:00

A teacher asks her class, "If there are five birds sitting on a fence,
and you shoot one of them, how many will be left?" She calls on Little
Vito.
He replies, "None. They will all fly away with the first gunshot."
The teacher replies, "The correct answer is four, but I like your
thinking."

Then, Little Vito says, "I have a question for YOU. There are three
women sitting on a bench having ice cream: One is delicately licking the
sides of the ice cream. The second is gobbling down the top and sucking
the cone. The third is biting off the top of the ice cream. Which one is
married?"
The teacher, blushing a great deal, replied, "Well, I suppose the one
that's gobbled down the top and sucked the cone."

To which Little Vito replied, "The correct answer is 'the one with the
wedding ring on', but I like your thinking."

LITTLE VITO ON MATH

Little Vito returns from school, and he says he got an "F" in
arithmetic.

"Why?" asks Little Vito's father?

"The teacher asked me: 'How much is 2x3'?. I said ' 6," replies Little
Vito.

"But that's right!" says Little Vito's Dad.

"Yeah, but then she asked me: "How much is 3x2?'"

"What's the fucking difference?" asks Little Vito's father..

"That's what I said!"

LITTLE VITO ON ENGLISH

Little Vito goes to school, and the teacher says, "Today, we are going
to learn multi-syllable words, Class. Does anybody have an example of a
multi-syllable word?"

Little Vito says, "Mas-tur-bate."

Miss Rogers smiles and says, "Wow, Little Vito, that's a mouthful."

Little Vito says, "No, Miss Rogers. You're thinking of a blow-job."

LITTLE VITO ON GRAMMAR

Little Vito was sitting in class one day. All of a sudden, he needed to
go to the bathroom. He yelled out, "Miss Jones, I need to take a piss!!"

The teacher replied, "Now, VITO, that is NOT the proper word to use in
this situation. The correct word you want to use is 'urinate.' Please
use the word 'ur-i-nate' in a sentence correctly, and I will allow you
to go."

Little Vito, thinks for a bit, and then says, "You're an eight, but if
you had bigger tits, you'd be a TEN!"

LITTLE VITO ON MORE GRAMMAR

One day, during lessons on proper grammar, the teacher asked for a show
of hands from those who could use the word "beautiful" in the same
sentence twice correctly.

First, she called on little Suzie, who responded with, "My father bought
my mother a beautiful dress, and she looked beautiful in it"

"Very good, Suzie," replied the teacher. She then called on little
Michael. "My mommy planned a beautiful banquet, and it turned out
beautiful."

She said, "Excellent, Michael!"

Then the teacher reluctantly called on Little Vito. He said, "Last night
at the dinner table, my sister told my father that she was pregnant, and
he said, "Beautiful, just fucking beautiful".

LITTLE VITO ON GETTING OLDER

Little Vito was sitting on a park bench munching on one candy bar after
another. After the 6th one, a man on the bench across from him said to
him,

"Son, you know eating all that candy isn't good for you. It will give
you acne, rot your teeth, and make you fat."

Little Vito replied, "My grandfather lived to be 107 years old."

The man asked, "Did your grandfather eat 6 candy bars at a time?"

Little Vito answered, "No, He minded his own fucking business!

The 90/10 Principle

2006-02-15T21:31:00.000-08:00

The 90/10 Principle
Author: Stephen Covey

Discover the 90/10 Principle. It will change your life (at least the way you react to situations). What is this principle?

10% of life is made up of what happens to you. 90% of life is decided by how you react. What does this mean?

We really have no control over 10% of what happens to us. We cannot stop the car from breaking down. The plane will be late arriving, which throws our whole schedule off. A driver may cut us off in traffic. We have no control over this 10%. The other 90% is different. You determinethe other 90%.

How? By your reaction.

You cannot control a red light., but you can control your reaction. Don't let people fool you; YOU can control how you react. Let's use an example.

You are eating breakfast with your family. Your daughter knocks over a cup of coffee onto your business shirt. You have no control over what just happened. What happens next will be determined by how you react. You curse. You harshly scold your daughter for knocking the cup over. She breaks down in tears. After scolding her, you turn to your spouse and criticize her for placing the cup too close to the edge of the table. A short verbal battle follows. You storm upstairs and change your shirt. Back downstairs, you find your daughter has been too busy crying to finish breakfast and get ready for school. She misses the bus. Your spouse must leave immediately for work.

You rush to the car and drive your daughter to school. Because you are late, you drive 40 miles an hour in a 30 mph speed limit. After a 15-minute delay and throwing $60 traffic fine away, you arrive at school. Your daughter runs into the building without saying goodbye. After arriving at the office 20 minutes late, you find you forgot your briefcase.Your day has started terrible. As it continues, it seems to get worse and worse. You look forward to coming home, When you arrive home, you find small wedge in your relationship with your spouse and daughter.

Why? Because of how you reacted in the morning. Why did you have a bad day?

A) Did the coffee cause it?
B) Did your daughter cause it?
C) Did the policeman cause it?
D) Did you cause it?

The answer is " D".

You had no control over what happened with the coffee.How you reacted in those 5 seconds is what caused your bad day. Here is what could have and should have happened.

Coffee splashes over you. Your daughter is about to cry. You gently say, "It's ok honey, you just need, to be more careful next time".Grabbing a towel you rush upstairs. After grabbing a new shirt and your briefcase, you come back down in time to look through the window and see your child getting on the bus. She turns and waves. You arrive 5 minutes early and cheerfully greet the staff. Your boss comments on how good the day you are having.

Notice the difference?

Two different scenarios. Both started the same. Both ended different.Why? Because of how you REACTED.

You really do not have any control over 10% of what happens. The other

90% was determined by your reaction.

Here are some ways to apply the 90/10 principle.

If someone says something negative about you, don't be a sponge. Let the attack roll off like water on glass. You don't have to let the negative comment affect you! React properly and it will not ruin your day. A wrong reaction could result in losing a friend, being fired, getting stressed out etc.

How do you react if someone cuts you off in traffic? Do you lose your temper? Pound on the steering wheel? A friend of mine had the steering wheel fall off)
Do you curse? Does your blood pressure skyrocket? Do you try and bump them? WHO CARES if you arrive ten seconds later at work? Why let the cars ruin your drive? Remember the 90/10 principle, and do not worry about it.

You are told you lost your job. Why lose sleep and get irritated? It will work out. Use your worrying energy and time into finding another job. The plane is late; it is going to mangle your schedule for the day.Why take out your frustration on the flight attendant? She has no control over what is going on. Use your time to study, get to know the other passenger. Why get stressed out? It will just make things worse.

Now you know the 90-10 principle. Apply it and you will be amazed at the results. You will lose nothing if you try it. The 90-10 principle is incredible. Very few know and apply this principle.The result? Millions of people are suffering from undeserved stress, trials, problems and heartache.We all must understand and apply the 90/10 principle. It CAN change your life!!!

how they got their names!

Love and Marriage

2006-01-21T02:12:00.000-08:00

Love in the heart was not meant there to stay. Love is not love till you give it away". For love to be ever lasting and eternal every one should be aware of the different stages of love and know its significance. Following are the different phases through which you will travel in your love life and only those who pass it will have an endless love.

ATTRACTION
Attraction can be defined as something, which is more than friendship and is a step towards getting ready for a relationship. Now attraction is of two types:

Physical Attraction
happens when your body reacts to another person. Heart rate increases; temperature rises, palms get sweaty; stomach flutters; throat tightens; etc. This is what will tell you that you are ready for the first contact and also whether you are comfortable in the company of the other person.

Emotional Attraction
develops next if the circumstances are right. After being drawn to a person physically, you then begin to come closer. If you find you have things in common -- hobbies, ideologies, career, education, or some other common ground -- then an emotional attraction starts to form. Sometimes an emotional attraction can occur even when a physical attraction does not. And in this case, the bond will be stronger between the two who connect, since no preconceived notions based on physical appearance has occurred.

INTIMACY
Intimacy is something, which a person experiences when you learn to trust and believe your lover. It is a close association with another person of the deepest nature. You share you thoughts, feelings, and dreams. You feel free to discuss everything with this person and you are absolutely comfortable in his company. Thus intimacy develops gradually. If you can't establish intimacy with your partner, your relationship may work for a while, but is unlikely to endure throughout the years. Intimacy is actually the path to a true, healthy and beautiful relationship.

ROMANCE
Romance is the essence of a relationship. Without romance your love life will not exist. Romance is the true identity of your love. It brings out your true self and helps you be a better lover, husband and partner. Romance is a celebration of the life you live as part of a couple. It springs naturally and originates from within your heart. It makes you do things that you possibly couldn't have imagined to do otherwise. It shows you who you are and reminds you of the role you play in a relationship. Romance is not responsibility but it is caring about your responsibilities towards your lover and partner. Romance is the appreciation of two people who are celebrating the lucky coincidence that they found each other.

PASSION
The third stage is passion, which basically means a desire for another person, which has grown to an intensity that can't be ignored. This is often where an emotional relationship turns into a physical relationship. The passion stage is very important. For from here you will understand the true meaning and nature of your relationship. If there is no passion then its best to let go but if there is passion in your relationship then it is time to go on to the next stage.

COMMITMENT
The last stage is commitment. This is when you know that you want to spend your whole life with this person you love and you can do anything for him. It is when your whole world just revolves round your lover and you take a pledge to remain true to your mate throughout good and bad times, be by his side whenever he needs you.

I need you

Time is short

2006-01-07T05:42:00.000-08:00

from internet

Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round
Or listened to the rain
lapping on the ground?

Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down
Don't dance so fast
Time is short
The music won't last

Do you run through each day on the fly?
When you ask "How are you?"
Do you hear the reply?

When day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?

You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast
Time is short
The music won't last

Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow
And in your haste, not see his sorrow?

Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say "Hi"?

You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast
Time is short
The music won't last

When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.

When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away...

Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

Letter to GOD

2006-01-05T00:13:00.000-08:00

*A little boy wanted Rs.50 very badly and prayed for weeks,
But nothing happened.

Finally he decided to write God a letter requesting the Rs.50.
When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to
God ,PAKISTAN ,they decided to forward it to the Finance Minister of
Pakistan as a joke.

The Finance Minister was so amused, that he instructed his secretary to send
the little boy Rs.20.
The Finance Minister thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a
little boy, and he did not want to spoil the kid.

The little boy was delighted with Rs.20, and decided to write a thank you
note to God, which read:

"Dear God: Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed
that you sent it through the Finance Minister in Islamabad , and those
donkeys deducted Rs.30 in taxes ..."*

Happy Birthday

2005-12-27T05:02:00.000-08:00

"Happy Birthday" means much more
Than have a happy day.
Within these words lie lots of things
I never get to say.

It means I love you first of all,
Then thanks for all you do.
It means you mean a lot to me,
And that I'm proud of you.

But most of all, I guess it means
That I am thinking of
Your happiness on this, your day,
With pleasure and with love.

Good Morning

Don't miss this story!

2005-12-22T08:53:00.000-08:00

A jobless man applied for the position of "office boy" at
Microsoft.

The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning
The floor as a
Test. "You are employed" he said. "Give me your e-mail
Address and I'll
Send you the application to fill in, as well as the
Date
When you may start."

The man replied "But I don't have a
Computer, nor an email."

"I'm sorry", said the HR manager, "If you
Don't have an email, that
Means you do not exist. And who doesn't
Exist, cannot have the job."

The man left with no hope at all. He
Didn't know what to do, with
Only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to
Go to the supermarket and buy
A 10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the
Tomatoes in a door-to-door round.
In less than two hours, he succeeded
To double his capital. He repeated
The operation three times, and
Returned home with $60. The man realized
That he can survive by this
Way, and started to go everyday earlier, and
Return late. Thus, his
Money doubled or
Tripled everyday.

Shortly, he bought a cart, then a
Truck, and then he had his own fleet of
Delivery vehicles. 5 years later,
The man is one of the biggest food
Retailers in the US. He started to
Plan his family's future,
And decided to have a life insurance. He
Called an insurance broker, and
Chose a protection plan. When the
Conversation was concluded,
The broker asked him his email.

The man
Replied, "I don't have an email."

The broker answered curiously, "You
Don't have an email, and yet
Have succeeded to build an empire. Can you
Imagine what you could
Have been if you had an email?!!"

The man
Thought for a while and replied, "Yes, I'd be an office boy
At
Microsoft!"

Moral of the story

1. Internet / email is not the solution to your life.

2. If you don't have Internet / email and
Work hard, you can be a
Millionaire.

3. If you received this
Message by email, you are probably already an
Office boy/girl, and not any close to being a millionaire...

Have a great day!!!

The Voice & The Snake

The first bowl on the earth
The second bowl on the sea
The third bowl on the rivers
The fourth bowl on the sun
The fifth bowl on the beast
The sixth bowl on the stars
The seventh bowl on the air
And the earth turned grey
The sea turned black
The rivers turned red
The sun turned cold
The beast turned pale
The stars turned fast
The air turned to poison

Knocking On Forbidden Doors

Back to the Rivers of Belief

A: Way To Eternity

...quem quaerimus adjutorem, nisi te, Domine.
Sancte Deus, Sancte Fortis, Sancte misericors Salvator,
amarae morti ne tradas nos.

C: The Rivers Of Belief

Take me back to the rivers of belief
Take me back to the rivers of belief, my friend
I look inside my heart, I look inside my soul
I promise you I will return
And when the Lamb opened the seventh seal, silence covered the sky
Take me back to the rivers of belief
Take me back to the rivers of belief, my friend
I look inside my heart, I look inside my soul
I'm reaching out for you, let's hope one day
We'll rest in peace on my rivers of belief

The Cross Of Changes
The Cross Of Changes

Second Chapter

We came out from the deep to help and understand but not to kill
It takes many lives till we succeed to clear the debts of many, many hundred years.

The Eyes Of Truth

Return To Innocence

Love - Devotion
Feeling - Emotion
Don't be afraid to be weak
Don't be too proud to be strong
Just look into your heart, my friend
That will be the return to yourself
The return to innocence.
(The return to innocence)
And if you want, then start to laugh
If you must, then start to cry
Be yourself, don't hide
Just believe in destiny.
Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up, and use the chance
To return to innocence.
That's not the beginning of the end
That's the return to yourself
The return to innocence.
(That's the return to innocence)

I Love You ... I'll Kill You

I see love, I can see passion
I feel danger, I feel obsession
Don't play games with the ones who love you
Cause I hear a voice who says:
I love you...I'll kill you
Loneliness, I feel loneliness in my room
Look into the mirror of your soul
Love and hate are one in all
Sacrifice turns to revenge and believe me
You'll see the face who'll say:
I love you...I'll kill you
But I'll love you forever.
Loneliness, I feel loneliness in my room

Silent Warrior

Long ago, for many years, white men came in the name of GOD.
They took their land, they took their lives, a new age has just begun.
They lost their GODS, they lost their smile, they cried for help for the last time.
Liberty was turning into chains, but all the white men said: "That's the cross of changes."
In the name of GOD - the fight for gold, these were the changes.
Tell me - is it right - in the name of GOD, these kind of changes?
They tried to fight for liberty, without a chance in hell, they gave up
White men won in the name of GOD with the cross as alibi.
There's no GOD who ever tried to change the world in this way.
And for the ones who abuse His name, there'll be no chance to escape on judgment day.
In the name of GOD - the fight for gold, these were the changes.
Tell me - is it right - in the name of GOD, these kind of changes?
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why the white man said: "That's the cross of changes"?
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why, in the name of GOD - these kind of changes.

The Dream Of The Dolphin

In every color there's the light
In every stone sleeps a crystal
Remember the Shaman when he used to say:
"Man is the dream of the dolphin."

Age Of Loneliness (Carly's Song)

Tosonguyn oroygoor toosrood
Carly, don't be sad
Life is crazy, life is mad
Don't be afraid
Carly, don't be sad
That's your destiny, the only chance
Take it, take it in your hands
Tosonguyn oroygoor toosrood
Carly, don't be sad
Life is crazy, life is mad
Tosonguyn oroygoor toosrood

Out From The Deep

We came out from the deep to learn to love, to learn how to live
We came out from the deep to avoid the mistakes we made.
That's why we are here.
We came out from the deep to learn and to understand, but not to kill
It takes many lives till we succeed to clear the debts of many hundred years.
That's why we are here.
That's why we are here.

The Cross Of Changes

If you understand or if you don't
If you believe or if you doubt
There's a universal justice
And the Eyes of Truth are always watching you.

Le Roi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi!
Le Roi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi!

Le Roi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi!

X-Ray Delta One, this is Mission Control. Roger you are one niner-three zero.
Things are changing
But nothing changes
And still, there are changes
Le roi est mort, vive le roi!

Morphing Thru Time

Earth, a biosphere. A complex, subtly-balanced life support system.
...et turtur nidum, ubi reponat pullos suos:
altaria tua, Domine virtutum, Rex meus, et Deus meus.
We are floating over the line, let us follow our mind
All our life we'll wait for the answer, and the question is: Why?
If we're following our mind, we can glide into light
No one knows if there'll be an answer while we're morphing thru time.
We are floating over the line, let us follow our mind
All our life we'll wait for the answer, and the question is: Why?
(We're just travellers in endless space.)
If we're following our mind, we can glide into light
No one knows if there'll be an answer while we're morphing thru time.

Third Of It's Kind

The first is the father
The second is the mother
And the third is the child.

Beyond The Invisible

I look into the mirror
See myself, I'm over me
I need space for my desires
Have to dive into my fantasies
I know as soon as I'll arrive
Everything is possible...
Cause no one has to hide
Beyond the invisible
Sajaja brammani totari ta, raitata raitata, radu ridu raitata, rota
Close your eyes...
Just feel and realize
It is real and not a dream
I'm in you and you're in me
It is time
To break the chains of life
If you follow you will see
What's beyond reality
Ne irascaris Domine,
ne ultra memineris iniquitatis.
Ecce civitas Sancti facta est deserta:
Sion deserta facta est:
Jerusalem desolata est.
Domus sanctificationes tuae et gloriae tuae...
Sajaja brammani totari ta, raitata raitata, radu ridu raitata, rota
Close your eyes...
Just feel and realize
It is real and not a dream
I'm in you and you're in me
It is time
To break the chains of life
If you follow you will see
What's beyond reality
Close your eyes...
Just feel and realize
It is real and not a dream
I'm in you and you're in me
It is time
To break the chains of life
If you follow you will see
What's beyond reality

Why! ...

I was childish and unfair to you, my only friend
I regret, but now it's too late
I can't show you anymore, the things I've learned from you
Cause life just took you away
I'm asking why
I'm asking why
Nobody gives an answer
I'm just asking why
But someday, we'll meet again
And I'll ask you...
I'll ask you why, why it has to be like this
I'm asking you why, please give me an answer
Many years of stupid fights til we accept to see
How it was and would always be
Why it has to be like this, why we don't realize
Why we're too blind to see the one who's always on our side
I'm asking why
I'm asking why
Nobody gives an answer
I'm just asking why
Just tell me why, why it has to be like this
That the good ones disappear
I'm asking you why
I'm asking why
I'm asking why
Nobody gives an answer
I'm just asking why
I'm asking why

T.N.T. For The Brain

Smell your skin, feel your breath
You on my side, I couldn't resist
I hope I'll understand some day
What's the meaning of this crazy game?
It is real and pure...
T.N.T. for the brain
If there's no pain, rules are still the same
I'm with you, just lead me, I'm ready to play
T.N.T. for the brain
Don't be scared and have no fear
I will show you what it means
If there's no pain, rules are still the same

The Roundabout

Life is a wheel of changes, but changes are life
And someday we will have to say goodbye, but our spirit will survive
Love is phasing, love is moving, to the rhythm of your sight
In the darkness, I get closer to the crossing point of light
Reason is lasting, passion is living, and dying is teaching us how to live.

Prism Of Life

I am hunted by the future, will the future be my past?
Or is time a fade-out picture of my everlasting cast?
Love is phasing, love is moving to the rhythm of your sight
...I get closer to the crossing point of light.
Sanctus, Sanctus Dominus, Deus Sabaoth.
Pleni sunt caeli et terra gloriae.
Hosanna in excelsis. Benedictus...
Let us try to live our lost illusions; they're the sun at night
If we don't, we'll never taste the spice of life
And when it seems that we're in a dead-end street, there's no reason to cry
Cause we have a helping hand who's always aside
Forever light.
Sanctus, Sanctus Dominus, Deus Sabaoth.
Pleni sunt caeli et terra gloriae.
Hosanna in excelsis. Benedictus...

Push The Limits

Basic instincts, social life
Paradoxes side by side.

Be yourself and not a fool.
Don't accept average habits
Open your heart and push the limits.
Open your heart and push the limits
Open your heart and push the limits

Gravity Of Love

Turn around and smell what you don't see
Close your eyes ... it is so clear
Here's the mirror, behind there is a screen
On both ways you can get in
Don't think twice before you listen to your heart
Follow the trace for a new start
What you need and everything you'll feel
Is just a question of the deal
In the eye of storm you'll see a lonely dove
The experience of survival holds the key to the gravity of love
o Fortuna, velut Luna
The path of excess leads to the tower of wisdom.
The path of excess leads to the tower of wisdom.
Try to think about it ...
That's the chance to live your life and discover what it is
What's the gravity of love
o Fortuna, velut Luna
Look around, just people, can you hear their voice
Find the one who'll guide you to the limits of your choice
But if you're in the eye of storm, just think of the lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key to the gravity of love.

Don't look back, the time has come
All the pain turns into love
We're not submissive, we're not aggressive
But they think we can't defend
Stand up, join us, modern crusaders alive
We have the power to face the future
Cause we are the fighters, just fighting for our rights
They're accusing, like always without knowing
What is just fiction or what is the truth
They have no mission, they have no passion
But they dare to tell us what's bad and what's good!
Stand up, join us, modern crusaders alive
We are the power who'll face the future
Cause we are the fighters just fighting for our rights
est affectus, et defectus, semper in angaria
quod per sortem sternit fortem, mecum omnes plangite!

Between Mind & Heart

Kyrie, Kyrie altissime.
Kyrie, Kyrie altissime.
It's hard to find the balance when you are love.
You're lost in the middle cause you have to decide between mind & heart.
Between mind & heart.
Heart is the engine of your body but brain is the engine of life.
Between mind & heart.
Heart is the engine of your body but brain is the engine of life.

Silence Must Be Heard

Look into the others' eyes, many frustrations
Read between the lines, no words, just vibrations
Don't ignore hidden desires
Pay attention, you're playing with fire
Silence must be heard, noise should be observed
The time has come to learn that silence...silence must be heard
Or diamonds will burn, friendly cards will turn
Cause silence has the right to be heard
People talk too much for what they have to say
Words without a meaning, they are fading away
Silence must be heard, noise should be observed
The time has come to learn, that silence...silence must be heard
Or diamonds will burn, friendly cards will turn
Cause silence has the right to be heard.
Silence must be heard...
Silence must be heard, noise should be observed (etc.)

Incognito

Like a shadow on the wall
If you come or if you go
Who you are, nobody knows
Can't get behind…incognito

You are capturing my soul
If I want, or if I don't
Not protected by the law
But still… incognito

Like a shadow on the wall
Free access around the world
Who you are, nobody knows
Eyes without face… incognito

Boum-Boum

My heart goes boum boum boum
Every time I think of you
Heart's going boum boum boum
Lost control what shall I do?

Cos I wanna be your lover
Till the end of our lives
I could never miss again
These loving eyes

My heart goes boum boum boum
Every time I think of you
I feel that boum boum boum
No control of what I'll do

Simplicity, complexity, oh what a tragedy
Reality, insanity, strange normality
Incredible, untouchable, but just visual
And I want you, just you but natural

My heart goes boum boum boum
When any mind is touching you
Inside that boum boum
Only light inside my gloom

Total Eclipse of Moon

Miles away from light at noon
Total eclipse of the moon
Many reasons to believe in life
Just listen what it's telling you

Come and have a look inside
Total eclipse of the moon
Don't be childish, don't be so cruel
I'm feeling just lonely without… without you

I can see the wide horizons
But debts have to be paid
Our ways will cross again someday
Believe, and come back to you…I'll see you soon

Time doesn't say hello
Total eclipse of the moon
Many nights in our lives before
I was dreaming to be just beside…beside you

Total eclipse of the moon…I'll see you soon

Look of Today

Come in and see the newest things
Feel what just money can bring
Don't you know, that's the load of today

You have a problem, I can help
Buy it and be yourself
Cos you know, that's the look of today

So many trends just fade away
Before you can wear it, it's a passé
But you know, that's the look of today

You are so stylish, you are so vain
Sometimes I think you have no brain
But you know, that's the look of today

In the shadow, in the light

I promise you, for all my life
I’ll be Always on your side
In the shadow, in the light

I’ll follow you, wherever life goes
But I’ll always be aside
In the shadow, in the light

But if we don’t understand…
Hell is happy, heaven is sad
And that’s the result of our brain…
Insane…

Caravan of life
By day and by night
Every tile’s a part of life
If it’s shadow, or if it’s light

I promise you, even when the tide is high
I’ll be always on your side
In the shadow, in the light

Weightless

Weightless, my baby's asleep
Some things just disappear…

Weightless, my baby's asleep
Floating, dreaming
No danger - just sweet...

Following the Sun

Following the sun, to find the one
Who's giving you the wings to fly
Following the sun, the golden one
Losing sense for space and time

Can you feel the waves of life
(Can you) hear the sigh of love
Do you believe in it ?

Following the sun, just for the one
Till you'll find the door you thought
Following the sun, like everyone
Searching for a sign of hope

Have a look up to the sky
See the billion stars above
Cos (maybe) on one of them
You'll spend your further life

The Rivers Of Belief [Radio Edit]

If you believe in light, it's because of obscurity
If you believe in joy, it's because of sadness
And if you believe in God, it's because of the devil
Take me back to the rivers of belief
Take me back to the rivers of belief, my friend
I look inside my heart, I look inside my soul
I promise you I will return
And when the Lamb opened the seventh seal, silence covered the sky.
Take me back to the rivers of belief
Take me back to the rivers of belief, my friend
I look inside my heart, I look inside my soul
I'm reaching out for you, let's hope one day
We'll rest in peace, on my rivers of belief.

stress in work and life

2005-12-02T03:23:00.000-08:00

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university lecturer.

Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the lecturer went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups: porcelain, plastic, glass, some plain-looking and some expensive and exquisite, telling them to help themselves to hot coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the lecturer said: "If you noticed, all the nice-looking, expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is but normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the better cups and are eyeing each other's cups."

"Now, if Life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, but the quality of Life doesn't change. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in it.So folks, don't let the cups drive you...enjoy the coffee instead"

Mirrors should be able to think before reflecting the images.

A friend is someone who knows the song of your heart and who can sing it for you when you have forgotten it

Friend: someone who tells you things while you are alive, things that others tell after you die

When i'm walking in front of u,I'm protecting u. When i'm beside u i'm there for u, when i'm behind u, I'm watching over u. When i'm alone,I'm thinking of u.

A ring is round and has no end.... and that's how long I'll be your friend.

A friend is never a coincidence in your life, they are meant to enter your life to bring you joy and laughter. So, i will treasure the friendship between us.

Everyone hears what you say... Friends listen to what you say... Best friends listen to what you don't say...

FRIENDSHIP is like a tree... It is not MEASURED on how TALL it could be, but is on how DEEP the ROOTS HAVE GROWN...

In this WORLD, where everything seems UNCERTAIN, only one thing is DEFINITE. You'll always be my FRIEND, beyond WORDS, beyond TIME & beyond DISTANCE!

I believe in angels, the kind that heaven sends. I'm surrounded by angels but I call them my best friends.

Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was choice, but falling in love with you was completely out of my control.

A memory lasts forever, and never does it die. True friends stay together and never say good bye.

The ship that will never sink is my friendship with you.

I met U as a stranger, I leave U as a friend, as long as the world stands, our friendship nv ends. All friends nv split N even if they do they will meet again.

I always thought loving some1 was the greatest feeling, but I realised tat loving a friend is even better, we lose ppl we love but we never lose true friends.

A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

Never say ur happy when ur sad? never say ur fine when ur not ok? never say u feel good when u feel bad? and never say ur alone when I m still alive.

If I could pull down the rainbow I would write ur name with it & put it back in the sky to let everybody know how colorful my life is with a friend like u!!
Life is 4 u, death is 4 me, being happy is 4 u, being sad is 4 me, being together is 4 u, being lonely is 4 me, everything 4 u but u r 4 me.

If I m in hell & u in heaven, I always look up & be proud of u. but if I were In heaven & u in hell, I beg God 2 send me down coz heaven wont be heaven without u.

Knowing a friend like u has made me happy in a million ways And if Ever I Have to Let you go???..I would Find a million reasons to make u stay!!!!
How can u tell the rain not 2 fall when clouds exist? How can u tell the leaves not 2 fall when wind exist? How can u tell me not to fall in friendship when u exist.
Wat u see as truth wat u see as lies remember that true friendship never dies although we may change & drift apart, ill always value u deep within my heart!
As long as we have memories, yesterday remains; as long as we have hope, tomorrow awaits. As long as we have Friendship, each day is never a waste.
Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
Friends are like stars. You can't always see them, But you know they are always there for you...
I want u 2 know that our friendship means a lot 2 me. U cry, I cry. U laugh.. I laugh. U jump out of d window.. I look down n then.. I laugh again.. hahaha
Everyone hears what you say... Friends listen to what you say... Best friends listen to what you don't say...
A friend is never a coincidence in your life, they are meant to enter your life to bring you joy and laughter. So, i will treasure the friendship between us.
Never abandon old friends. They are hard 2 replace. Friendships is like wine: it gets BETTER as it grows OLDER. Just like us... i get BETTER, u get OLDER.
There r many stars but the moon is u, there are many friends but the best is u,, To forget me that?s up to u,,, To forget u I will never ever do.

How to Deal With Loneliness

2005-11-25T01:51:00.000-08:00

How to Deal With Loneliness

People feel lonely for a number of reasons, such as not having enough friends, not knowing how to be close to the people you know, or simply because being lonely is part of the human condition. Here's how to cope with loneliness when it comes your way.

Steps

1. Realize that we all get lonely. It doesn't mean there is anything wrong with you or that you have to stay lonely. We're particularly prone to loneliness when we're making transitions, especially for the better. If you're changing, such as exploring new alternatives and paths for yourself, you're bound to get a little lonely as you look for people who share your new interests and thoughts.
2. Call or get together with the people you know, even if they aren't who you want to be with right now. Human contact makes more contact easier. This includes your mother and the guy at the deli counter. Talk until the feeling eases. Make as many calls as necessary.
3. Get involved in anything where you will meet people. If you are very shy, find a group for social anxiety, even if it has to be online (obviously it's better if it's not). Look on places like Craig's List for activities in your area. Volunteering can help.
4. Challenge yourself to take the initiative in social relationships whenever you can. YOU ask the person if they want to chat, get a coffee, whatever. Remember how much you like it when people are attracted to you.
5. Take risks about revealing yourself. Say what's on your mind, if it seems at all likely the other person will be receptive. It can hurt when it backfires, but it's worth it a million times over when it works out.
6. Befriend someone lonelier than you are. This will not be the last friend you make.
7. Remember that we are all alone inside our heads; we are born and die alone; it's nothing special. Every person who has ever lived has been lonely. Love wouldn't exist without loneliness to inspire it. Look at your loneliness with detachment.
8. Notice the difference between loneliness and solitude. Imagine this is the last day you will ever be alone. What would you do?

Tips

* Forget about the 'perfect' friend or lover. Connect with anyone around you.
* Set up social activities when you're not feeling lonely. Anticipate.
* Read literature and go to museums/theater/dance. Art reaches inside.

How to Meet Your Girlfriend's Parents

2005-11-16T21:47:00.000-08:00

Have you ever been in the nerve-wracking situation of meeting your girlfriend's parents for the first time? Afraid of what impression you will make? Follow these instructions and you'll surely be invited back for baked ziti dinner night.

Steps

1. Dress to impress. Going to meet someone's parents in your vintage, hole-ridden, acid-washed jeans and Che Guevara t-shirt that you got from the thrift store the other day for three dollars probably won't get you their utmost respect. This doesn't mean wear a suit - just be presentable (e.g. a polo shirt or t-shirt that doesn't spread the Communist agenda).
2. Park your car in front of their house, and lock both doors. This will be explained later.
3. Be confident. When you meet them for the first time, give them a firm handshake. Nothing says "I can't take care of your daughter" more than a limp-noodle handshake. Not to mention, when it's firm, it shows you mean business. All men-who-mean-business use the firm shake, sometimes with an additional forearm grab. If you are feeling brave, throw in a pound. If you are feeling brave and foolish, try a low-five.
4. Make good conversation. One of the most pivotal parts of meeting anyone - parents, girls, the president - is the conversation. If you have mastered the art of conversation, you are a deadly force just waiting to disarm parents at every turn. Use anecdotes and, most importantly, well-timed (and appropriate) jokes. Timing is the key--an ill-timed comment could be the difference between "father-in-law" and "law-suit". Take lessons from your past experiences; i.e., look at your conversations with your ex-girlfriend's parents (see, that's EX-girlfriend for a reason).
5. Be prepared for the Q & A session. There comes a time in every first meeting where you will be assaulted with questions that end only upon the submission of your manhood. It is very important to answer most of these questions in the affirmative, unless they begin with, "Have you ever...," "When is the last time you...," "Have you ever committed a felony..." - in which case it is best to use your discretion. Be warned that you may have to swallow your pride at times. By the end of this session, you will most likely feel out of breath, beaten, and less of a man - however, if done correctly, you will soon be on to step six. If not, a 'family emergency' might suddenly come up that somehow doesn't allow you to go out with your date tonight. You didn't even know she had an Uncle Pedro in Taipei, or that myxomatosis affected humans - but you hope he gets better soon.
6. Say farewell. This is the most relieving part of the entire parental-unit-meeting-situation, but only for the champions who have made it past the first five steps. Usually characterized by a dark, evil stare by the father as he opens the door to let you out, and accompanied by a "Have her home by ____," - in which case you respond you will have her home within plenty of time to make that deadline - this is the green-mile. Once you exit the door, it is imperative not to look back - because you know darn well that her parents are watching until you are out of sight.
7. Once you reach your car, be certain to unlock her door first, and open it for her. Turn around and flash her parents a smile while you close the door if you are feeling dangerous. Once you get in, make sure she is buckled-up and do the same, otherwise you will notice her father's face twist and distort behind the screen door. Finally, give a single-hand acknowledgment of her parent's presence behind their door, and drive away at no faster than fifteen miles-an-hour until you are out of their sight.
8. Congratulations! You've made it this far, the rest of the night is up to you. Good luck.

Tips

* Always keep a smile on your face if possible.
* If she has a curfew, bring her home a little bit early. That shows the father that you respect his boundaries. After doing that a few times, you will be amazed when you hear from him, "Stay out as long as you want. We know that you are in good hands."

Dear...

2005-11-09T06:20:00.000-08:00

Dear Husband,

I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you for
good. I've been a good woman to you for seven years and I have
nothing to show for it.

These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell me
that you had quit your job today and that was the last straw.
Last week, you came home and didn't notice that I had gotten my
hair and nails done, cooked your favorite meal and even wore a
brand new negligee.

You came home and ate in two minutes, and went straight to sleep
after watching the game. You don't tell me you love me anymore,
you don't touch me or anything. Either you're cheating or you
don't love me anymore, what ever the case is, I'm gone.

P.S. If you're trying to find me, don't. Your BROTHER and I are
moving away to West Virginia together! Have a great life!

Your Ex-Wife

*****************************************************************
Dear Ex-Wife

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's
true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a
good woman is a far cry from what you've been.

I watch sports so much to try to drown out your constant nagging.
Too bad it doesn't work.

I did notice when you cut off all of your hair last week. The
first thing that came to mind was "You look just like a man!", but
my mother raised me to not say anything if you can't say anything
nice.

When you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused
with MY BROTHER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago.

I went to sleep on you when you had on that new negligee because
the price tag was still on it. I prayed that it was a coincidence
that my brother had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that
morning and your negligee was $49.99.

After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work
it out. So when I discovered that I had hit the lotto for ten
million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to
Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone!

Everything happens for a reason I guess.

I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer
said with your letter that you wrote, you won't get a dime from
me. So take care.

P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this but Carl, my brother was
born Carla. I hope that's not a problem.

poem on love

2005-11-04T20:29:00.000-08:00

Its love that I live for

Its love for which I die

If anything on earth is worth standing for

Its my love for which I shall stand by

Love is the tenderness of a woman’s bosom

When enraged could raise a tempest

And flourishes like the spring’s blossom

Over the millennia had withstood many tests

Only love produces the courage

In men who fight the world

And maidens with pure hearts and souls

Who give their life without a word

Everything of this world is mortal

Except the love which is eternal

And I am proud to be a lover

For I have reason to live and die for

2005-10-24T05:22:00.000-07:00

If electricty comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

Moblie phones are the only subject on which men boast about who's got the smallest

A friend will bail u out of jail, but a best friend will be there with u saying, Damn that was fun!

Trying is the first step towards failure

If you hate me, I love you too. It ain't my fault I'm better than you

If you are drinking to forget, pay in advance

The funny thing about Common sense is that it's not very common

Just For Husbands!

2005-10-21T05:55:00.000-07:00

Have you cleaned the house? Is dinner ready? Have you fed the kids? Did you wash my clothes?

These are some of the questions that women hear, day in and day out, from husbands who assert that wives are nothing more than servants and baby machines. But a wife is neither.

Nevertheless, amidst busy schedules on the parts of both women and men, some husbands forget the real reasons behind marriage and likewise the rights of their wives. Subsequently, they deprive themselves, their mates and their children of the happiness and tranquility that is the bedrock of a successful family. This unbalanced vision towards a couple's ideal relationship is bad enough to plunge the family into a situation laden with troubles and worries.

Even among religious families, you will find some husbands who still do not have a proper understanding of rights of their wives, nor a clear vision of the intended relationship between a married couple.

It is both painful and distressing to see a Muslim husband practicing Allah's orders on the one hand, but forgetting to follow His guidance regarding how to treat his wife. Outside the home he is kind, patient and smiling. But, as soon as he returns home, the smiling face becomes angry and sad and the kindness and gentleness turn into nervousness and adversity. He starts shouting and screaming his orders at his wife.

He forgets that although he faces many challenges and pressures outside the house, his wife can also be overwhelmed with the housework and her responsibilities to the children.

He forgets that she also needs rest after a long day of working. Although his duty is to work outside the house and to provide for his family, a wife's role inside the house is not any less important. On the contrary, her role is often more important as she is the one charged with raising the children and guarding the family.

We often see this scenario: A wife feels tired and asks her husband to help her with the cleaning, washing or cooking. He refuses, as though it is shameful for a man to help his wife. Doesn't he know that Prophet Mohammad (SAW), the most beloved person to Allah (SWT), helped his wives with the housework? Doesn't he know that Omar Ibn al-Khattab provided recipes to a group of women in order to teach them how to cook? Could Omar teach others if he himself did not know how to cook?

No husband, regardless of how much work he has, can ever be busier than our Prophet (SAW) whose duty it was to spread Islam. Likewise, no one is busier than Omar who had to bear the responsibility of a Khalifah.

It shocks me to hear that some wives have never heard a loving or appreciative word from their husbands. When asked about the person he loved the most, the Prophet (SAW) did not hesitate to name his wife, A'ishah. Thus, he declared very clearly, that a husband should not be ashamed of loving his wife or even of declaring that love in front of other people.

It is also painful to hear that some husbands do not speak to their wives or spend time with their families, under the pretenses of a busy schedule and da'wa work. While it is noble to be involved in da'wa outside the home, it is also necessary that the wife and children also be recipients of a husband's efforts.

I wonder how married couples can live without ever talking or spending time together or how they can feel happiness and tranquility with this gap separating them. Who else can share in happiness and sadness better than one's wife? Who else can encourage one to confront the challenges of life with perseverance and patience? Who can listen and keep one's secrets better than a wife? Who can help renew iman and intentions better than a wife?

The Prophet (SAW) taught us that the best among men is the one who best treats his wife. Shouldn't we follow the Prophet's example in every issue of our lives?

The Prophet (SAW) spent time with his wives, talking to them, laughing with them, and even playing with them. He listened to his wife, Om Salama's (RAA), advice in the Hudaybiya conciliation, when she advised him to start shaving and butchering. It was her mature advice that solved the predicament and protected the Muslim nation. So why have we strayed from that example?

Raising children is not just the mother's job, as some mistakenly think. It is intended as a mutual responsibility to be shared by both parents. Everyone has his/her complimentary role to undertake regarding family. There is no doubt that the mother bears the bigger burden of responsibility, but the role of the father is likewise important and has tremendous effects on the stability of the family.

Children need the presence and input of a father. They need him to ask them about their homework, help them memorize the Qur'an and understand religion. They need to feel that he is there for them.

Dear husbands, your wife is your partner, your other half and your life mate. She can be your hassanah in this world and "the blessing of your life," but only if you give her the chance to be. She is the one who can bring a smile to your face and dry the tears of pain from your eyes. She has the potential to provide your family with iman, happiness, encouragement, and patience in the face of challenges you may face. Your wife is always ready to sacrifice everything in order to bring happiness and success to the family.

No one can claim that marriage is always blissful or that there will never be any hardships to face. But, if the basis of the relationship is strong and if each person has a clear vision of his partners' rights, then challenges can easily be overcome.

I do not mean to blame all husbands for the problems facing couples today. I am addressing a specific type of husband within the Muslim community: the misinformed one who does not understand that a happier and stronger Muslim family can only be built under a strong partnership between the couple.

A girl and guy were speeding over 100 mph on the road on a
motorcycle...
Girl: Slow down. Im scared.
Guy: No this is fun.
Girl: No its not. Please, its too scary!
Guy: Then tell me you love me.

Girl: Fine, I love you. Slow down!
Guy: Now give me a BIG hug.

Girl hugs him

Guy: Can you take my helmet off & put it on
yourself ? Its bugging
me.
In the paper the next day A motorcycle had crashed into a
building because of brake failure. Two people were on it,
but
only
one had survived.
The truth was that halfway down the road, the guy realized
that
his brakes broke, but he didn't want to let the girl know
Instead,
he had her say she loved him & felt her hug him one last
time,
then had her wear his helmet
so that she would live even though
it
meant that he would
die.

If there is anyone in life you love this much!!!

F A M I L Y

I ran into a stranger as he passed by,
"Oh excuse me please" was my reply.

He said, "Please excuse me too;
I wasn't watching for you."

We were very polite, this stranger and I.
We went on our way and we said goodbye.

However, at home a different story is told,
How we treat our loved ones, young and old.

Later that day, cooking the evening meal,
My son stood beside me very still.

When I turned, I nearly knocked him down.
"Move out of the way," I said with a frown.

He walked away, his little heart broken.
I did not realize how harshly I had spoken.

While I lay awake in bed,
God's still small voice came to me and said,

"While dealing with a stranger,
common courtesy you use,
but the family you love, you seem to abuse.

Go and look on the kitchen floor,
you will find some flowers there by the door.

Those are the flowers he brought for you.
He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.

He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise;
you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes."

By this time, I felt very small,
and now my tears began to fall.

I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
"Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.

"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.

I picked 'em because they are pretty like you.
I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."

I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;
I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."
He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay.
I love you anyway."

I said, "Son, I love you too,
and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."

FAMILY
Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company
that we are working for could easily replace us in
a matter of days.
However, the family we left behind will feel the loss
for the rest of their lives.

And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
into work than into our own family,
an unwise investment indeed,
don't you think?
