I thank God

I thank God for all that i'm blessed with....

Today, i was waiting in the station for my train in the morning and there came a train to the opposite direction. And in few minutes the platform was full with people moving around and i could notice many of them walking even without footwear. They walk like that everyday in mud, stones..... And i thought about the hardship they lead and also ablout how blessed i'm for i dont walk bare foot even inside my house.

I really felt very sorry for them. Let there be a time when even they enjoy all pleasures and luxuries in life.

Not only footwear, but many of them dont even have the basic amenities and thousands of them without jobs and what not... While one section of the people suffer like this for every square of meal the other side keeps growing richer and richer and also turn miser.... They keep plannign for world tours, parties...get togethers, birthday parties and lavish weddings... what not??????

Why this discrimination?????????

I thank God for whatever i'm blessed with...... :-)

A lesson learnt...

Learnt a valuable lesson yesterday in the hard way....

Never to forget whatever happened in your life. For that, will help you not to repeat the same mistake again.

Always remember the past, but dont cling to it, keep moving forward.....

My parents 25th anniversary party went on well as planned.... Though had to slog, it was all fun doing it.... They were really very happy.....

Learn to say NO!!!!!!!!

Today i wanted to do something useful and so started to go through some e learning materials.Wherein i came across a beautiful concept which is stated below.

Learning to say "NO" is not negativism. It actually frees you to say "YES" to the matter that actually matters.

What a powerful statement?????

We generally tend to be submissive or accept everything because we like to please everybody and tend to do everything despite of the fact that we really dont wish to do it.We overburden ourselevs and also dont have enthusiasm in doing it, for we started to do it for others. As a result, end up messing up things, put ourselevs into immense stress andend up the relationship for which we started doing all these.

Whats wrong in saying a NO when you really dont want to do it. Fine, we need not be aggressive in turning down but still we can be polite in refusing or denying, which i would suggest is far better than messing up things.

Saying NO doesnt create an image that we turn down everything or also that we are adamant or a person with too much head weight. Its in the way how we tell them. We need to give priority toour work too.

And with the same idea running in my mind during lunch came back and started writing the same in board near me. I did not notice that someone was standing behind me. I just sat after writing andwas startled hearing the voice behind me. It was one of the PM's in my dept.From his talk on this topic i realised he also ahd the same idea in his mind. It was nice talking to him about this.This was the first time i have spoken to him. A nice ice breaker though...:-)

Now can you see???????

I never get to tell you what I really need to say
How I long to hold you each and every day
You mean more to me than words can ever express
Without you my life would be a total mess
As I look into your eyes, and at your perfect face
I know there will never be anyone to take your place
No matter what problems we may go through
That place in my heart will always be for you
If I am having a hard time letting you in
It's because I have played the game, and never win
Your love means so much to me
I just don't know how to make you see
I don't care what people say
We can stick together anyway
When they come to me, all I see is your face
When they start to speak your voice takes their place
It's a voice that promises to always be there
No matter what they say, I know you still care
Always and Forever is what this means to me
I LOVE YOU, now can you see?
