THE RAIN...............Truly Awesome

Live with laughter and love with all your heart.......  The Rain

It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly

gentleman in his 80's arrived to have stitches removed from

his thumb. He said he was in a hurry as he had an appointment

at 9:00 am. I took his vital signs and had him take a seat,

knowing it would be over an hour before someone would to

able to see him. I saw him looking at his watch and

decided, since I was not busy with another patient,

I would evaluate his wound. On exam, it was well

healed, so I talked to one of the doctors,

got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and

redress his wound. While taking care of  his wound, I asked him

if he  had another doctor's appointment  this

morning, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to

the nursing home to eat breakfast  with his wife.

I inquired as to her health.

He told me that she had been there for a while

and that she was a victim of Alzheimer's Disease. As we talked, I asked if she would be upset

if he was a bit late.

He replied that she no longer knew who he was,

that she had

not recognized him in five years now.

I was surprised, and asked him, 'And you still go every

morning, even though she doesn't know who you are?' He smiled as he patted my hand and said,

'She doesn't know me, but I still know who she is.' I had to hold back tears as he left, I had goose bumps

on my arm, and thought,'That is the kind of love

I want in my life,  but  dont want do anything at my end'.

True love is neither physical, nor romantic it is the true

feeling of care , respect and giving.

True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been,

will be, and will not be. With all the jokes and fun that are in e-mails, sometimes

there is one that comes along that has an important

message.

This one I thought I could share with you.

The happiest people don't necessarily have the best of

everything;

they just make the best of everything they have. I hope you share this with someone you care about.

I just did..

'Life isn't about how to survive the storm, But how to dance in the rain.' We are all getting Older .

Tomorrow may be our turn.

THANK YOU

THANK YOU

Thank you to all my friends who continue to send me such important emails!

It's so wonderful that you included me in your quest to inform!

Because of all of you I stopped drinking Coca-Cola after I found out from you that it's good for removing toilet stains and rusting the arse out of 40-gallon drum.

I stopped going to the movies for fear of sitting on a needle infected with a disease.

I smell like a homeless f*@k, but thank goodness I stopped using deodorant because you said it causes cancer.

I don't leave my car in any parking lot even though I sometimes have to walk about seventeen blocks, because you said that someone might drug me with a perfume sample and then try to rob me.

I also stopped answering the phone because you said that they will ask me to dial a stupid number and then I get a high phone bill with calls to Uganda, Singapore, Tokyo and maybe the Mars Rover.

I stopped eating chicken and hamburgers because you told me they are nothing more than horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers that are bred in a lab so that places like McDonalds and KFC can sell their wares.

I also stopped drinking anything out of a can - you said that I would get sick from the rat faeces and urine.

When I go to parties, I now don't mix with anybody or talk to anybody - you said that someone would take my kidneys and leave me taking a nap in a bathtub full of ice.

However, the police are also after me at present because you said not to pull over, as they could be fake policemen trying to kidnap me.

I went bankrupt from bounced checks that I wrote, in anticipation of the $15,000 that Microsoft and AOL were supposed to send me when I participated in their special e-mail program.

It's weird, though, that my new free cell phone never arrived, and neither did the passes for my paid vacation to Disneyland. But I am positive that all this is because of the chain I broke or forgot to follow and I got a curse.

गब्बर सिंह का चरित्र चित्रण - A must read

गब्बर सिंह का चरित्र चित्रण 1. सादा जीवन, उच्च विचार : उसके जीने का ढंग बड़ा सरल था . पुराने और मैले कपड़े , बढ़ी हुई दाढ़ी , महीनों से जंग खाते दांत और पहाड़ों पर खानाबदोश जीवन . जैसे मध्यकालीन भारत का फकीर हो . जीवन में अपने लक्ष्य की ओर इतना समर्पित कि ऐशो - आराम और विलासिता के लिए एक पल की भी फुर्सत नहीं . और विचारों में उत्कृष्टता के क्या कहने ! ' जो डर गया , सो मर गया ' जैसे संवादों से उसने जीवन की क्षणभंगुरता पर प्रकाश डाला था . २ . दयालु प्रवृत्ति : ठाकुर ने उसे अपने हाथों से पकड़ा था . इसलिए उसने ठाकुर के सिर्फ हाथों को सज़ा दी . अगर वो चाहता तो गर्दन भी काट सकता था . पर उसके ममतापूर्ण और करुणामय ह्रदय ने उसे ऐसा करने से रोक दिया . 3. नृत्य - संगीत का शौकीन : ' महबूबा ओये महबूबा ' गीत के समय उसके कलाकार ह्रदय का परिचय मिलता है . अन्य डाकुओं की तरह उसका ह्रदय शुष्क नहीं था . वह जीवन में नृत्य - संगीत एवंकला के महत्त्व को समझता था . बसन्ती को पकड़ने के बाद उसके मन का नृत्यप्रेमी फिर से जाग उठा था . उसने बसन्ती के अन्दर छुपी नर्तकी को एक पल में पहचान लिया था . गौरतलब यह कि कला के प्रति अपने प्रेम को अभिव्यक्त करने का वह कोई अवसर नहीं छोड़ता था . 4. अनुशासनप्रिय नायक : जब कालिया और उसके दोस्त अपने प्रोजेक्ट से नाकाम होकर लौटे तो उसने कतई ढीलाई नहीं बरती . अनुशासन के प्रति अपने अगाध समर्पण को दर्शाते हुए उसने उन्हें तुरंत सज़ा दी . 5. हास्य - रस का प्रेमी : उसमें गज़ब का सेन्स ऑफ ह्यूमर था . कालिया और उसके दो दोस्तों को मारने से पहले उसने उन तीनों को खूब हंसाया था . ताकि वो हंसते - हंसते दुनिया को अलविदा कह सकें . वह आधुनिक यु का ' लाफिंग बुद्धा ' था . 6. नारी के प्रति सम्मान : बसन्ती जैसी सुन्दर नारी का अपहरण करने के बाद उसने उससे एक नृत्य का निवेदन किया . आज - कल का खलनायक होता तो शायद कुछ और करता . 7. भिक्षुक जीवन : उसने हिन्दू धर्म और महात्मा बुद्ध द्वारा दिखाए गए भिक्षुक जीवन के रास्ते को अपनाया था . रामपुर और अन्य गाँवों से उसे जो भी सूखा - कच्चा अनाज मिलता था , वो उसी से अपनी गुजर - बसर करता था . सोना , चांदी , बिरयानी या चिकन मलाई टिक्का की उसने कभी इच्छा ज़ाहिर नहीं की . 8. सामाजिक कार्य : डकैती के पेशे के अलावा वो छोटे बच्चों को सुलाने का भी काम करता था . सैकड़ों माताएं उसका नाम लेती थीं ताकि बच्चे बिना कलह किए सो ऍ --------------------------------------

HAPPINESS BY KUSHWANT SINGH.................

What is Happiness? EIGHT CLUES TO HAPPINESS By- KHUSHWANT SINGH Having lived a reasonably contented life, I was musing over what a person should strive for to achieve happiness. I drew up a list of a few essentials which I put forward for the readers' appraisal. 1. First and foremost is GOOD HEALTH. If you do not enjoy good health you can never be happy. Any ailment, however trivial, will deduct from your happiness.  2. Second, A HEALTHY BANK BALANCE. It need not run into crores but should be enough to provide for creature comforts and something to spare for recreation, like eating out, going to the pictures, travelling or going on holidays on the hills or by the sea. Shortage of money can be only demoralizing. Living on credit or borrowing is demeaning and lowers one in one's own eyes.  3. Third, A HOME OF YOUR OWN. Rented premises can never give you the snug feeling of a nest which is yours for keeps that a home provides: if it has a garden space, all the better. Plant your own trees and flowers, see them grow and blossom, cultivate a sense of kinship with them.  4. Fourth, AN UNDERSTANDING COMPANION, be it your spouse or a friend. If there are too many misunderstandings, they will rob you of your peace of mind. It is better to be divorced than to bicker all the time.  5. Fifth, LACK OF ENVY towards those who have done better than you in life; risen higher, made more money, or earned more fame. Envy can be very corroding; avoid comparing yourself with others.  6. Sixth, DO NOT ALLOW OTHER PEOPLE to descend on you for gup-shup. By the time you get rid of them, you will feel exhausted and poisoned by their gossip-mongering. 7. Seventh, CULTIVATE SOME HOBBIES which can bring you a sense of fulfilment, such as gardening, reading, writing, painting, playing or listening to music. Going to clubs or parties to get free drinks or to meet celebrities is criminal waste of time.  8. Eighth, every morning and evening, devote 15 minutes to INTROSPECTION. In the morning, 10 minutes should be spent on stilling the mind and then five in listing things you have to do that day. In the evening, five minutes to still the mind again, and ten to go over what you had undertaken to do. RICHNESS is not Earning More, Spending More  Or Saving  More, but ...  "RICHNESS IS WHEN YOU NEED NO MORE"
