Be beautiful ..be positive.. be together



Human society exists because

it is impossible for us to live in

isolation. Since we must live

together we should do so with

a positive attitude of concern

for one another.

Faith in parents gives happiness and confidence ....never loose it


The Story of a small girl & her father




We feel bad when some thing goes against our 
wish...this story will help us understand what
 Bad can do to our lives...

(Story of a small girl and her father)
-------------------------------------------
She was very cute girl at the age of 8 years. 
Everybody in the family
was found of her.
She was also loving her family. But, she had a 
special faith and affection with her father.
Her father was working in a bank. He was used 
to play with her every day.
One day, she demanded a Pearl ornament. The 
father bought a Plastic Ornament (looking like 
pearl).
She was so happy. Then, she was playing with 
that ornament from morning till evening.

After one month,
One day, her father was talking with her.

The father : "Beti, do you love me?"
Daughter : "Yes, papa."

The father : "If I will ask something, 
will you give it to me? "
Daughter(with smile) : "Sure, papa."

The father :"Please give me that ornament."
Daughter (with Tension): "what?"

The father :"Beti, give it to me."
Daughter (Crying face): "Take my games, 
not ornament."

The father (with Sad face):"No need."

Second day.
-----------------
The father : "Do you love me?"
Daughter : "Yes Papa, I love you."

The father : "If I will ask something, 
will you give it to me? "
Daughter(little alert) : "What is that?"

The father :"Please give me that ornament."
Daughter (tense face): "Will it be ok, if 
you give you my piggy bank."

The father didn't answer and went to his bedroom.

Third day.
-----------------
Daughter (with sorry on face): "Papa, you can 
take the ornament."

Father keep it in his pocket and went to his 
bedroom.The daughter was looking at him with 
tears in her eyes.

After few minutes, the father came with a box. 
She was not in mood to
look at the box.
The father gave her the box and asked her to open. She opened with tears.
The sadness converted in to happiness. It was real pearl ornament.
She hugged him with pleasure.

======================
----end of the story-----

When we loose something, we become unhappy.
We don't see any opportunity and good luck coming 
on our way thence. 

It is better to find new openings (the real pearl)by having patience and believing in 
God and parents who can never do wrong to you though it may seem so due to ur
narrowness of experience.

.smartness can not change destiny



For changing destiny u have to earn good karmas ......Alok 

Death came to a guy and said, "My friend, today is your day"
Guy: "But I'm not ready!".
Then death said, "Well, your name is the next on my list..."

Guy: "Okay why don't you take a seat and I will get you something to eat before we go?"
Then death said, "All right..."

The guy gave death some food with sleeping pills in it, death finished eating and fell into a deep sleep.

The guy took the list & removed his name from top of the list and put into the bottom of the list.

When death woke up he said to the guy,
"Because you have been so very nice to me, I will start from the BOTTOM of the list!"

But may everyone not get this chance to mend their way....


A Moment in Life
 It was 25th January 2008. Nisha was waiting for her husband Akshaye . It was their marriage anniversary.
Things have got changed since their marriage.  Nisha gave up thinking that Akshaye must have forgotten their anniversary and surely won’t be back home on time. Akshaye too didn’t like how the things were going. She was so loving, so caring before marriage how everything got changed so radically. Yet they still love each other.
 It was 4:00 pm. The bell rang. Nisha was surprisingly happy...  Akshaye finally remembered.She ran to open the door. Indeed Akshaye was standing outside. He was smiling and had a bunch of flowers at his hand. There were champagne, light music and it was raining a little outside..Overall the weather too seemed to get romantic along with them.
 But the moment came to a slight pause.. The phone in the bedroom was ringing.. Quite agitated Nisha went to pick up the phone. It was a man on the other side.. Hello madam I am calling from the police station. Is it Mr Akshaye Malhotras number??? There was an accident and a Man. died. We got your number from the man’s purse. We need you to come here and identify the body..
Nishas heart sank. Whhhhaaat?? B-but my husband is here with me? Nisha was about to lose her senses. How could this happen? She knew this type of things. She had heard about this. The soul of the person comes to meet you before it parts..She ran to the drawing room.. Akshaye was not there It is true? Has something that bad really happened to Akshaye??? Has he left her forever?? Oh God had she been given another chance she would have mended all her faults .
She rolled down on the floor awestruck. Suddenly there was noise from the bathroom.. Akshaye came out I forgot to tell u dear my purse was stolen while I was returning home .
 Life might not give u a second chance..So never waste a moment when u can make up and mend all your faults with some one close to you.
 Live life as you wish without hurting anyone, avoid quarrel & fights and even if it happens, don’t let it overshadow your love for others.

Even I shout sometime when impatient but...



Subject: "The Doctor Who Was In A Hurry" 

A doctor entered the hospital in hurry after being called in for an urgent surgery. He answered the call asap, changed his clothes and went directly to the surgery block. He found the boy's mother going and coming in the hall waiting for the doctor. On seeing him, the mother yelled:

"Why did you take all this time to come? Don't you know that my son's life is in danger? Don't you have the sense ...of ...responsibility?"

The doctor smiled and said:

"I am sorry, I wasn't in the hospital and I came the fastest I could after receiving the call.. And now, I wish you'd calm down so that I can do my work"

"Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now, would you calm down? If your own son dies now what will you do??" said the mother angrily.

The doctor smiled again and replied: "I will say what Job said in the Holy Book "From dust we came and to dust we return, blessed be the name of God".
Doctors cannot prolong lives. Go and intercede for your son, we will do our best by God's grace"

"Giving advice when we're not concerned is so easy" Murmured the mother.

The surgery took some hours after which the doctor went out happy, "Thank goodness!, your son is saved!" And without waiting for the mother's reply he carried on his way running. "If you have any question, ask the nurse!!"

"Why is he so arrogant? He couldn't wait some minutes so that I ask about my son's state" Commented the mother when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.

The nurse answered, tears coming down her face: "His son died yesterday in a road accident, he was in the burial when we called him for your son's surgery. And now that he saved your son's life, he left running to finish his son's burial."

Moral:- Never Judge Anyone Because You never know how their life is & what they're going through!


"You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore."

'Friends are God's way of taking care of us.'



What an incredible story. Please read it .
 

Psalm 55:22 --- you really need to read this
'Friends are God's way of taking care of us.'


This was written by a Metro Denver Hospice Physician:

I was driving home from a meeting this evening about 5, stuck in traffic on Colorado Blvd., and the car started to choke and splutter and die - I barely managed to coast , cursing, into a gas station, glad only that I would not be blocking traffic and would have a somewhat warm spot to wait for the tow truck. It wouldn't even turn over. Before I could make the call, I saw a woman walking out of the quickie mart building, and it looked like she slipped on some ice and fell into a gas pump, so I got out to see if she was okay.
When I got there, it looked more like she had been overcome by sobs than that she had fallen; she was a young woman who looked really haggard with dark circles under her eyes. She dropped something as I helped her up, and I picked it up to give it to her. It was a nickel.

At that moment, everything came into focus for me: the crying woman, the ancient Suburban crammed full of stuff with 3 kids in the back (1 in a car seat), and the gas pump reading $4.95.

I asked her if she was okay and if she needed help, and she just kept saying 'I don't want my kids to see me crying!,' so we stood on the other side of the pump from her car. She said she was driving to California and that things were very hard for her right now. So I asked, 'And you were praying?' That made her back away from me a little, but I assured her I was not a crazy person and said, 'He heard you, and He sent me.'

I took out my card and swiped it through the card reader on the pump so she could fill up her car completely, and while it was fueling, walked to the next door McDonald's and bought 2 big bags of food, some gift certificates for more, and a big cup of coffee. She gave the food to the kids in the car, who attacked it like wolves, and we stood by the pump eating fries and talking a little.

She told me her name, and that she lived in Kansas City . Her boyfriend left 2 months ago and she had not been able to make ends meet. She knew she wouldn't have money to pay rent Jan. 1, and finally, in desperation, had called her parents, with whom she had not spoken in about 5 years. They lived in California and said she could come live with them and try to get on her feet there.

So she packed up everything she owned in the car. She told the kids they were going to California for Christmas, but not that they were going to live there.
I gave her my gloves, a little hug and said a quick prayer with her for safety on the road. As I was walking over to my car, she said, 'So, are you like an angel or something?'

This definitely made me cry. I said, 'Sweetie, at this time of year angels are really busy, so sometimes God uses regular people.'

It was so incredible to be a part of someone else's miracle. And of course, you guessed it, when I got in my car it started right away and got me home with no problem. I'll put it in the shop tomorrow to check, but I suspect the mechanic won't find anything wrong.

Sometimes the angels fly close enough to you that you can hear the flutter of their wings...

Psalms 55:22 ' Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee. He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.'


My instructions were to pick people that I wanted God to bless, especially for the months left in
2010, and I picked you.
Please pass this to people you want to be blessed and a copy back to me..
Here is the prayer:


'Father, I ask You to bless my children, grandchildren, friends, relatives and email buddies reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there is self doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace, In Jesus' precious name. Amen.'


I know I picked more -- you can, too.
