My Next Life:
My next life I want to live backwards.
I start out dead and get that out of the way.
Then you wake up in an old people's home feeling better every day.
You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a gold watch and a party on your first day.
You work for 40 years until you are young enough to enjoy your retirement.
You party, drink alcohol and are generally promiscuous, and then you are ready for high school.
You then go to primary school, you become a kid, and you play. You have no responsilities, you become a baby until are born. And then you spend your last 9 months floating in luxurious spa like condition with central heating and room service on tap, larger quarters every day and then, Voila!
You finish off as an orgasm!
I rest my cause.

"Even this shall pass away"

Once a king called upon all of his wise men and asked them,"Is there a mantra or suggestion which works in every situation, in every circumstance, in every place and in everytime. Something which can help me when none of you is available to advise me. Tell me is there any mantra?" All wise men got puzzled by King's question. One answer for all question? Something that works everywhere, in every situation? In every joy, every sorrow, every defeat and every victory?

They thought and thought. After a lengthy discussion, an old man suggested something which appealed to all of them. They went to the king and gave him something written on paper. But the condition was that king was not to see it out of curiosity. Only in extreme danger, when the King finds himself alone and there seems to be no way, only then he'll have to see it.The King put the papers under his Diamond ring.

After a few days, the neighbors attacked the Kingdom. It was a collective surprise attack of the King's enemies. King and his army fought bravely but lost the battle. King had to fled on his horse. The enemies were following him. His horse took him far away in the Jungle. He could hear many troops of horses following him and the noise was coming closer and closer. Suddenly the Kingfound himself standing at the end of the road - that road was not going anywhere. Underneath there was a rocky valley thousand feet deep. If he jumped into it, he would be finished…and he could not return because it was a small road… The sound of enemy's horses was approaching fast. King became restless. There seemed to be no way. Then suddenly he saw the Diamond in his ring shining in the sun, and he remembered the message hidden in the ring. He opened the diamond and read the message. The message was very small but very great.The message was - "Even this shall pass away."

The King read it. Again read it. Suddenly something struck him- Yes! it too will pass. Only a few days ago, I was enjoying my kingdom. I was the mightiest of all the Kings. Yet today, the Kingdom and all his pleasure have gone. I am here trying to escape from enemies.However when those days of luxuries have gone, this day of danger too will pass. A calm come on his face. He kept standing there.The place where he was standing was full of natural beauty. He had never known that such a beautiful place was also a part of his Kingdom. The revelation of the message had a great effect on him. He relaxed and forgot about thosefollowing him. After a few minutes he realized that the noise of the horses and the enemy coming was receding. They moved into some other part of the mountains and were not on that path.The King was very brave. He reorganized his army and fought again. He defeated the enemy and regained his lost empire. When he returned to his empire after victory, he was received with much fan fare at the door. The whole capital was rejoicing in the victory. Everyone was in a festive mood.Flowers were being thrown on the King from every house, from every corner. People were dancing and singing. For a moment King said to himself," I am one of the bravest and greatest King. It is not easy to defeat me".With all the reception and celebration he saw an ego emerging in him.Suddenly the Diamond of his ring flashed in the sunlight and reminded him of the message. He open it and read it again:"Even this shall pass away."He became silent. His face went through a total change - from the egoist he moved to a state of utter humbleness.If this too is going to pass, it is not yours. The defeat was not yours, the victory is not yours.

You are just a watcher. Everything passes by we are witness of all this. We are the perceiver. Life comes and goes.Happiness comes and goes. Sorrow comes and goes.Now as you have read this story, just sit silently and evaluate your own life.. Think of the moments of joy and victory in your life. Think of the moment of Sorrow and defeat. Are they permanent? They all come and pass away. Life just passes away. There were friends in the past. They have gone.There are friends today. They too will go. There will be new friends tomorrow. They too will go.There were enemies in the past. They have gone. There may be enemies in the present. They too will go. There will be new enemies tomorrow and……they too will go.There is nothing permanent in this world. Every thing changes except the law of change. Think over it from your own perspective. You have seen all the changes. You have survived all setbacks, all defeats and all sorrows.All have passed away. If there are problems in the present, they too will pass away. Because nothing remains forever.Joy and sorrow are the two faces of the same coin. They both will pass away. Who are you in reality? Know your real face. Your face is not your true face. It will change with the time. However, there is something in you, which will not change. It will remain unchanged. What is that unchangeable?It is nothing but your true self. You are just a witness of change.

Experience it, understand it…Have a great life ! :)

REfLeTiOn- Life

Reflection:
Where am I going& for what.............
Long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered. Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible. Came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and
he was exhausted and was dying.
Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself."

The above story is similar with the journey of our Life.We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health ,time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.
One day when we look back,we will realize that we don't really need that much ,but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed. Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition. .

______________________ _________ _________ _________ _________
Life is definitely not about WORK!
Work is only necessary to keep us living SO as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life.
Life is a BALANCE of Work and Play, Family and Personal time.
You have to decide how you want to balance your Life.
Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts.
Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of Life, the whole aim of human existence.
So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature.
Life is fragile , Life is short..
Do not take Life for granted.
Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy Life!
Watch your thoughts ; they become WORDs.

Watch your words ; they become ACTIONs.
Watch your actions ; they become HABITs.
Watch your habits; they become CHARACTER .
Watch your character; it becomes your DESTINY
So enjoy every day.

11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321

111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321

Now, take a look at this...
101%

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:

What Equals 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to GIVE OVER 100%.
How about ACHIEVING 101%?
What equals 100% in life?
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help answer these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.
If:
H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K
8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 = 98%
And:
K-N-O-W-L-E- D-G-E
11+14+15+23+ 12+5+4+7+ 5 = 96%
But:
A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E
1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%

THEN, look how far the love of God will take
you:

L-O-V-E-O-F- G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101%
Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:
While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!

It's up to you if you share this with your friends & loved ones just the way I did..

Wonderful Reasoning

Saint asked his disciples, 'Why do we shout in anger?
Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?'
Disciples thought for a while, one of them said,
'Because we lose our calm, we shout for that.' 'But, why to shout when the other person is just next to you?' asked the saint.
'Isn't it possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice?
Why do you shout at a person when you're angry?'
Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the saint. Finally he explained, 'When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. Tocover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, thestronger they will have to shout to hear each other through that great distance.' Then the saint asked, 'What happens when two people fall in love? They don't shout at eachother but talk softly, why? Because their hearts are very close.
The distance between them is very small...' The saint continued, 'When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they get even closer to each other in their love. Finallythey even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that's all. That is how close twopeople are when they love each other.'

"When Rival turns Friends"

Well I am hoping for a possibilty there! Imagine if two of the biggest parties in the elections join hands together- What a blessing will it be for the nation? When One party claims it had done so much in its ruling......imagine a joint effort. I wonder it can do wonders for any country and specially for a developing countries- where its always hard to find a majority. I feeel its no shame either......because both of the parties are Ruling. I feel its not only good for the parties but for the nation as a whole.........an old saying " A combined effort is far better than a single effort".....I feel this is worth a try..........besides when so many unprecendated things are happening in this era....why not this one..........
