Woman In Your Life

Here is a girl, who is as much educated as you are; who is earning almost as much as you do...

One, who has dreams and aspirations just as you have because she is as human as you are...

One, who has never entered the kitchen in her life just like you or your sister haven't, as she was busy in studies and competing in a system that gives no special concession to girls for their culinary achievements...

One, who has lived and loved her parents & brothers & sisters, almost as much as you do for 20-25 years of her life...

One, who has bravely agreed to leave behind all that, her home, people who Love her, to adopt your home, your family, your ways and even your family Name...

One, who is somehow expected to be a master-chef from day #1, while you sleep oblivious to her predicament in her new circumstances, environment and that kitchen...

One, who is expected to make the tea, first thing in the morning and cook food at the end of the day, even if she is as tired as you are, maybe more, and yet never ever expected to complain; to be a cook, a mother, a wife, even if she doesn't want to; and is learning just like you are as to what you want from her; and is clumsy and sloppy at times and knows that you won't like it if she is too demanding, or if she learns faster than you...

One, who has her own set of friends, and that includes boys and even men ather workplace too, those, who she knows from school days and yet is willing to put all that on the back-burners to avoid your irrational jealousy, unnecessary competition and your inherent insecurities; Yes, she can drink and dance just as well as you can, but won't, simply because you won't like it, even though you say otherwise...

One, who can be late from work once in a while when deadlines, just like your's are to be met...

One, who is doing her level best and wants to make this most important Relationship in her entire life a grand success, if you just help her some and trust her...

One, who just wants one thing from you, as you are the only one she knows in your entire house - your unstinted support, your sensitivities and mostimportantly - your understanding, or love, if you may call it...

But not many people understand this...

Well... Give it a thought now!!

One Paragraph That Explains LIFE!

Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player was dying of AIDS which he gotdue to infected blood he received during a heart surgery in 1983. Fromworld over, he received letters from his fans, one of which conveyed: "Why does GOD have to select you for such a bad disease"?To this Arthur Ashe replied: The world over -- 5 crore children startplaying tennis, 50 lakh learn to play tennis, 5 lakh learn professionaltennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the grand slam, 50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi final, 2 to the finals, When I was holding a cup Inever asked GOD "Why me?". And today in pain I should not be asking GOD"Why me?"Happiness keeps u Sweet, Trials keep u Strong, Sorrow keeps u Human, Failure Keeps u Humble, Success keeps u Glowing, But only God Keeps uGoing.....Keep Going.....

Voice Of GOD

The Voice of God I ran across a bumper sticker the other day that actually stopped me in my tracks. It went like this: "Why is it when we talk to God we're praying but when God talks to us we're neurotic?" Now personally I've never considered myself neurotic although I'm sure I have many family members and friends that would rise to argue the contrary, And yet I hear the voice of God everyday.
When I wake each morning and start to prepare for the day I hear God whispering, "I've given you another day my child." And as I head out the door to go to work again God says, "I've provided for you a good job and good people to work with." When I sit to eat the voice of God reminds me, "I shall not let you hunger this day." Ok, I think you get my point here. God speaks to each and every one of us throughout the day and for all our lives.
Gods voice is always present in the laughter of children, the beauty of a sunrise, the smile of a friend and in the gentle breathing of that someone you love as they sleep beside you. It can be heard in every flower and in every song.
It can even be heard in the problems and disasters that come our way, Saying, "I love you enough to make you grow, Even in ways you may not want to."
If you can't hear the voice of God, its not that the voice isn't there...its because you, my friend, are not listening.

A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day & said 'Lord, I would like to know what Heaven & Hell are like.' The Lord led the holy man to two doors.He opened one of the doors & the holy man looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious & made the holy man's mouthwater. The people sitting around the table were thin & sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms & each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew & take a spoonful. But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery & suffering. The Lord said, 'You have seen Hell.' They went to the next room & opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth water. The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished & plump, laughing & talking. The holy man said, 'I don't understand.' 'It is simple,' said the Lord. 'It requires but one skill. You see,they have learned to feed each other, while the greedy think only of themselves.'

A Beautiful Prayer

I asked God to take away my habit.
God said, No. It is not for me to take away,
But for you to give it up.
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.
God said, No. His spirit is whole
His body is temporary.
I asked God to grant me Patience.
God said, No. Patience is a byproduct of tribulations,
It isn't granted it is learned.
I asked God to give me happiness.
God said, No. I give you blessings,
Happiness is upto you.
I asked God to spare me pain.
God said, No. sufferings draw you apart from
Worldly care and brings you closer to me.
I asked God to make my spirit grow.
God said, No. you must grow on your own,
But I will prune you to make you fruitful.
I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life.
God said, No. I will give you life
So that you may enjoy all things.
I ask God to help me love others,
As much as he loves me.
God said… ahhhh, finally you have the idea.
