......weakness of attitude-->>weakness of character......

The Japanese have always loved fresh fish. But the water close to Japan has
not held many fish for decades. So to feed the Japanese population, fishing
boats got bigger and went farther than ever. The farther the fishermen
went, the longer it took to bring the fish. If the return trip took more
time, the fish were not fresh. To solve this problem, fish companies
installed freezers on their boats. They would catch the fish and freeze them
at sea. Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.However,
the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen fish. And
they did not like the taste of frozen fish. The frozen fish brought a lower
price. So, fishing companies installed fish tanks. They would catch the fish
and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. After a little thrashing around,
they were tired, dull, and lost their fresh-fish taste. The fishing industry
faced an impending crisis! But today, they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan .

How did they manage? To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing
companies still put the fish in the tanks but with a small shark. The fish
are challenged and hence are constantly on the move. The challenge they face
keeps them alive and fresh!

MORAL:
Have you realized that some of us are also living in a pond but most of the
time tired and dull ? Basically in our lives, sharks are new challenges to
keep us active. If you are steadily conquering challenges, you are
happy.Your challenges keep you energized. Don't create success and revel in
it in a state of inertia. You have the resources, skills and abilities to
make a
difference. Put a shark in your tank and see how far you can really go!

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 is doing basically the same work? "


The doctor leaned over and whispered to the mechanic.....

He said: "Try to do it when the engine is running".

A Rebellion!!

 (Disclaimer : Taken from internet. With due credits to the original author)

There was once a little bird who decided to rebel against tradition, and when it came time to fly south for the winter, he decided to stay behind. All the other birds flew south for the warmer weather, leaving the rebellious one alone.


Of course, it wasn't long before the little bird discovered he had made a terrible mistake. Winter set in and it became very cold. So, he decided that he had better take off and fly south like his friends.


He started flying, but didn't get very far before the cold north wind began to freeze his wings, and he went plummeting down, down, down ... He fell straight down from the sky, through an open hole in the rooftop of a nearby barn, and directly into a fresh pile of cow dung.


Well, the warmth thawed out his wings, and soon he was feeling fine again. But, as his little head popped out from the smelly dung, along came a cat who plucked him up and ate him.


So,whenever you end up in a pile of DoDo it may not necessarily be a bad thing, and everyone that comes to pull you out of your DoDo may not necessarily be a good thing.

Until I.......

I feared being alone
Until I learned to like Myself.
I feared failure
Until I realized that I only Fail when I don't try.
I feared success
Until I realized that I had to try in order to be happy with myself.

I feared
people's opinions
Until I learned that people would have opinions about me anyway.
I feared rejection
Until I learned to have faith in myself.
I feared pain
Until I learned that it's necessary for growth

I feared the
truth
Until I saw the ugliness in lies.
I feared life
Until I experienced its beauty .
I feared death
Until I realized that it's not an end, but a beginning.

I feared my destiny,
Until I realized that I had the power to change my life.
I feared hate
Until I saw that it was nothing more than ignorance.
I feared love
Until it touched my heart, making the darkness fade into endless sunny days.

I feared ridicule
Until I learned how to laugh at myself.
I feared growing old
Until I realized that I gained wisdom every day.
I feared the future
Until I realized that Life just kept getting better.
I feared the past
Until I realized that It could no longer hurt me.

I feared the dark
Until I saw the beauty of the starlight.
I feared the light
Until I learned that the Truth would give me Strength.
I feared change,
Until I saw that even the most beautiful butterfly had to undergo a Metamorphosis before it could fly.

just be happy
and unreasonable about it
dont look for reasons
dont doubt it


just be happy
and away from yourself
dont look too deep or close
or you`ll tumble into the well


just be happy
and know enough to fuel a smile
dont rip the skies for answers
or beg for Heavenly droppings in style


just be happy
know just as much u need to
to get through this sleep we call Life

just be happy
about the twins, Worry-Fear if she gets too close
draw yourself back, far enough to see her
and study and measure,
make clear the noodle thoughts between your ears


just be happy
not too much to ask of yourself Happiness,
bubbles from the tummy floating its way up,
up the lungs, up the throat, up the tongue
and when u make faces at the mirror there`s two of you smiling,
not just one...

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE!

 (Disclaimer : Taken from internet. With due credits to the original author)

Some time ago, a man punished his 4 year old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated when the small child tried to decorate a box to put under the tree. Nevertheless the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said "This is for you Daddy." He was embarrassed by his earlier over reaction... He opened the box and his anger flared again when he found the box was empty.

Then he yelled at her:

DON'T YOU KNOW when you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside of it???



The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said,



Oh Daddy it's not empty, I blew kisses into the box, all for you Daddy.



The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged her for forgiveness. He kept that gold box near his bed for years.

Whenever he was discouraged he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there. In a very real sense each of us has been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses. There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

HOUSE OF 1000 MIRRORS....

Long ago in a small, far away village, there was place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors.


A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he bounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house.


He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and friendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself, "This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often."




In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door.


When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, "That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again."





All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet?

No God OR Know God??

 (Disclaimer : Taken from internet. With due credits to the original author)

An atheist professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem
Science has with God, The Almighty.

He asks one of his new students to stand and.....

Prof: So you believe in God?

Student: Absolutely, sir.

Prof: Is God good?

Student: Sure.

Prof: Is God all-powerful?

Student: Yes.

Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him.

Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn't. How is
this God good then? Hmm? (Student is silent.)

Prof: You can't answer, can you? Let's start again, young fellow. Is God
good?

Student: Yes.

Prof: Is Satan good?

Student: No.

Prof: Where does Satan come from?

Student: From...God.. .

Prof: That's right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?

Student: Yes.

Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything. Correct?

Student: Yes.

Prof: So who created evil?

(Student does not answer.)

Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible
things exist in the world, don't they?

Student: Yes, sir.

Prof: So, who created them?

(Student has no answer.)

Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the
world around you. Tell me, son...Have you ever seen God?

Student: No, sir.

Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?

Student: No, sir.

Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you
ever had any sensory perception of God for that matter?

Student: No, sir. I'm afraid I haven't.

Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?

Student: Yes.

Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says
your GOD doesn't exist. What do you say to that, son?

Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.

Prof: Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.

Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?

Prof: Yes.

Student: And is there such a thing as cold?

Prof: Yes.

Student: No sir. There isn't.

(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)

Student: Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega
heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat. But we don't have anything
called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat,

but we can't go any further after that. There is no such thing as cold. Cold
is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure
cold.

Heat is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of
it.

(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)

Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?

Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn't darkness?

Student: You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You
can have low light, normal light, bright light, flashing light....But if you
have no light constantly, you have nothing and its called darkness, isn't
it? In reality, darkness isn't.

If it were you would be able to make darkness darker, wouldn't you?

Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?

Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.

Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?

Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is
life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the
concept of God as something finite, something we can measure.

Sir, science can't even explain a thought. It uses electricity and
magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one.

To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that
death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of
life: just the absence of it. Now tell me, Professor. Do you teach your
students that they evolved from a monkey?

Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of
course, I do.

Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?

(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the
argument is going.)

Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and
cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavour, are you not
teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher?

(The class is in uproar.)

Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor's
brain?

(The class breaks out into laughter.)

Student: Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor's brain, felt
it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to
the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science
says that you have no brain, sir.

With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?

(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face
unfathomable. )

Prof: I guess you'll have to take them on faith, son.

Student: That is it sir... The link between man & god is FAITH.

That is all that keeps things moving alive!!

E X A M S!!

Exams....d most avoided thng by students! But in d recent past events i've realised dat being able to write xamz is also an blessing! we need to b in proper health to study nd appear fr d xam....its a true blessing vch we often overluk. Here's an xplanation to y i say so.... In d frst year of MBBS [in AP,dunno else wer] if u fail in ny of d subject u'll lag behind ur batch by whole 6 mnths...Its really peak of gettin tensed while preparing fr dese xams! Not able to tak d heat,few of my classmates ran away[lodging a false complaint dat dey got kidnaped]..And worst of all one of my oldest classmate since my inter days wz severly ill. D day i saw her bfor d beginning of d xam i wz so shocked to c her helpless,she wzn't even able to walk on her own.But her family supported her to mak it to xam hall,so dat she doesn't waste her 6 mths! Even aftr all dis she cudn't mak it up for d last subject,i'm afraid now she has 6 mnths of long waiting dan rest of her batch to get d MBBS degree. At d same tym even i wz having a severe neck pain nd wazn't able to prepare well fr d xamz[no matter how long i tried stayin up at nyts,d pain wz horrible] And d frnds of my ill-classmate wer facing hell,seeing der close frnd in such state[GOD must really hav given dem great strength to maintain der nerves in such a testing tym]. So,finally i realised dat evry test v r writingi in full health,giving our best during preparations,vchs enabling us to get into nxt accdemic year...is really a blessing in disguise!

ACTUAL ME!!

Hmm... So what am I actually made up of?? Muscles, tissues, nerves, fat,lymph, blood vessels...that’s a biological answer for you. But there’s still more to that for each one of us, for which even science fails to answer. As I already put little intro about me at "about me" column; adding to that.. I am someone who wishes to be like a perfect disciplined girl, but that would not stop me from trying out any wild stuff!! Sometimes I feel I am an invisible being! People around me rarely acknowledge about my existence, but sometimes I feel all eyes are on me, judging each and every move I make. Shy, introvert, pessimist, what not!! But things are changing; don’t know if it’s for good or bad though.

Well we all have our own lives to lead and if we get into microscopic viewing of all the happenings of our life alone, then hardly there is any time left to bother about anyone else. But humans are social beings right, so even if all are messed up with their own lives they can surely take some time out to find out was sup with their fellow beings. So the final direct point which I want to make is that someday this blog will surely get some other readers. (right now me being the sole follower)!! And who knows I might even get some comments too :D
