Q. How long does it take to build a lasting relationship? 6 months? 1 Year? 2 Years? 5 Years? 10 years?

A. None of the above. It takes a lifetime of commitment. It is easy, perhaps, to start a romantic relationship. What takes effort, though, is to keep improving it while at the same time, not letting it fall. You may have gone out with someone for years and may think you have them figured out. That is unwise thinking. In the first place, you can't know another person's mind that well.

In the second place, people change, situations change. You are never "done" building your relationship. To make it last a lifetime, you have to work on it a lifetime. However, work does not mean a burden. True, it takes effort to do any work, but work can be satisfying and pleasurable. Seemingly tedious work done in building a relationship can lead to a lot of long term peace of mind, happiness, and even great pleasures.

A lasting relationship that gives pleasure throughout life and lets you have peace of mind is much better for your life than short term relationship that gives only pleasure on the short term.

Q. How does one find the right person?

A. When you look for the right person, don't look for someone with all the qualities you desire. The probability of finding such a person is low, unless you commit a major part of your life to the search.

(If you do that, other aspects of your life may suffer, making you a less desirable person.) Look for someone who shows the potential of someone willing and able to build a lasting, happy relationship. Look for someone who has commitment.

If you are both the types who will and continue to work hard to make it work, the chances are that you won't have to work too hard. Plan your life around long term goals. Before you start seriously dating someone, think if they are the right person for you in the long term.

Q. Is it ok to live with someone before marriage?

A. I'm not an authority on religious ethics, so that's something you should first check with your belief structure. I will give some practical reasons why I believe that it is often not a wise idea. By living together unmarried, you build barriers between the two of you that don't disappear after marriage.

For example, you get used to separating your certain key finances that (in my opinion) a husband and wife should share. You get used to living without the special commitment to each other that is required of a marriage.

What ends up happening often is that not much changes after marriage. Now if you were a special committed couple and were already sharing all aspects of your life that a couple should (certain finances, responsibility without keeping accounts of who did how much), you are fine. However, in many cases, the life together without marriage only looks like a marriage from the outside, but isn't anything like marriage on the inside.

There is major and fundamental difference between almost married and married. Marriage is not defined by sex. Marriage is not defined by a close friendship. Marriage is not even defined by having children.

Marriage is defined by an unfailing commitment to another human being. Your spouse is the relative that you choose, not a relative by birth. You should chose well, but then you should stick with what you choose.

(This does apply to a marriage, but it may not apply to other things in life like a job. They are different things.)

Some Things about gals u wont ever understand.


1. If u think a girl is beautiful, she'll always have a boyfriend to confirm that.

2. the nicer she is...the quicker u will be dumped!!!!!

3. The more the makeup, worse the looks...

4. "95% of girls in this world are beautiful. Remaining 5% would always b around "U".

5. The guy standing next to a beautiful girl can never be her brother.

The more desperate you are to tell your feelings to a girl on a private chat, the more probability the long lost friend she discovered is a handsome superman, who beats you in everything 9:1.

Axiom 1:
The more dedicated you are to the girl, the longer it takes before things work out, but ultimately it will (some smile for the guys)

1. You are dressed badly.

A woman accompanied her husband to the doctor's office.

After his checkup, the doctor called the wife into his office alone. He said, "Your husband is suffering from a very severe stress disorder. If you don't follow my instructions carefully, your husband will surely die.

"Each morning, fix him a healthy breakfast. Be pleasant at all times. For lunch make him a nutritious meal. For dinner prepare an especially nice meal for him.

"Don't burden him with chores. Don't discuss your problems with him; it will only make his stress worse. Do not nag him.

"If you can do this for the next 10 months to a year, I think your husband will regain his health completely."

On the way home, the husband asked his wife, "What did the doctor say?"

"He said you're going to die," she replied.
Save yourself a heart break by reading the warning signs from the beginning of your relationship.

When you first start dating a man or woman who you have been attracted to, you might be all starry-eyed and dreamy. But, a few years later, you probably end up asking yourself what was I thinking, or worst case scenario — you spare yourself a few years of wondering and end the relationship. It isn’t uncommon for couples to start dating, and in the beginning really get along. But as time goes by you realise the relationship was a mistake and then wish you had seen the problems right from the start. While there is no way of knowing in an instant, it is possible to gauge whether a relationship is over even before it has begun, if only you look for the signs. What are those signs? Read on to find out.

Oh! My problems
When you first start dating, there are several things that you can talk about; what the person does, their likes and dislikes etc. However, if your date can only talk about their unending problems and how hopeless a place the world is, please read the signs and back off. If all your man or woman can do is whine about their problems instead of trying to know you better, you are probably heading for a relationship that will end up being bitter. Yes, if they are truly suffering because they have experienced something tragic — fair enough. But, if they are just the complaining sort, you’d much rather be with someone a little more positive and with a brighter perspective on life.

Stood you up
If there is a genuine reason, he or she deserves a second chance. But if it is a silly reason and they did not even bother to inform you, walk away now. Don’t wait for a few more stand-ups before realising this person is only full of excuses and can’t respect someone enough to at least inform them that he or she won’t show up. You need to assert yourself from the beginning and if they can’t treat you decently enough to make plans and then, at least, show up, they’re probably not worth keeping anyway.

Secrets
When two people get together and the relationship is new, there is no reason that one would want to keep it a secret, unless they are unsure about it. This is a sign that your man or woman is not sure about you and wants to buy time before making the relationship ‘official.’ If the person you have recently started dating wants to keep your relationship a secret, confront them and ask why. If the reason is valid, it’s up to you whether or not you want to stay with them. But, if they are being evasive, watch out, maybe there is a third party involved.

Your friends don’t approve
Your friends probably know you better than anyone else. If they are apprehensive about the new man or woman in your life, listen to them. Hopefully your friends are the kind of people who look out for you. Not the type that get malicious and poison your mind because they are jealous. If your closest friend, who you trust and will only have your best interests at heart warns you — don’t be blinded by love; listen to them. The fact that your friends see something wrong, is a sign that maybe you’re ill-suited with this particular man or woman.

Lying
A sure sign that your relationship isn’t going to get very far is when there are lies being said right from the beginning. If you find out that your new partner has lied to you about something, remember that he or she probably has the capacity to tell bigger lies later on as well. A relationship cannot survive without trust, and only a fool would trust a liar. So be aware of how much your partner is willing to bend the truth.

When a relationship goes wrong it can cause a lot of hurt and anger. Of course, it is hard to be guarded when you’re in love heart break, but you can at least try to avoid heart break by reading the signs.

Here is an excerpt from MicroSoft Owner "Bill Gates" speech to Students of High School in California, USA. This is worthwhile reading specially youths of all ages to learn about 11 rules they did not & will not learn in school.

ELEVEN RULES OF LIFE :-

Rule 1:
Life is not fair >>> Get used to it.

Rule 2:
The world won't care about your self-esteem & will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3:
You will NOT make $40,000 a year - right out of high school & won't be a Vise-President with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4:
If you think your teacher is TOUGH, wait till you get a BOSS.

Rule 5:
Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity, your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping -- they called it opportunity.

Rule 6:
If you mess-up, it's not your parent's fault, so don't whine about your mistakes & learn from them.

Rule 7:
Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now, they got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes & listening to you talk about how cool you are. So, before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8:
Your school may have done away with Winners & Losers, but life has not. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades & they'll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9:
Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers Off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself - DO that on your own time.

Rule 10:
Television is NOT real life, in real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop & go to work.

Rule 11:
Be nice to nerds, chances are you'll end up working for one.

..11 Rules of Life..

The main causes of liver damage are:
1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are the main cause.
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3. Too much eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial sweetener.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil.
Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.
8. Consuming overly done foods also add to the burden of liver. Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.

We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our body to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to "schedule."


Because:
Evening at 9 - 11pm :
This is the time for eliminating unnecessary/toxic chemicals (de-toxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time duration should be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in an unrelaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this will have a negative impact on her health.

Evening at 11pm - 1am :
The de-toxification process in the liver, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 1 - 3am :
De-toxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 3 - 5am :
De-toxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the de-toxification process had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process.

Morning 5 - 7am :
De-toxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel.

Morning 7 - 9am :
Absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30am, for those who are sick.
Breakfast before 7:30am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late until 9 - 10am rather than no meal at all. Sleeping so late and waking up too late will disrupt the process of removing unnecessary chemicals.
Aside from that, midnight to 4am is the time when the bone marrow produces blood.

Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late.

My cat urinated on my laptop - Disklabs technicians had to thread gingerly in handling a Toshiba laptop which had been urinated on by a client's pet Persian Blue.

It fell off the roof of the car - A salesperson in a hurry placed his laptop on the roof of his car, while he placed all his demo products into the vehicle. He forgot the laptop on the roof and drove off. He stated: "I was doing about 40mph when I saw it in the rear view mirror".

I accidentally drove over it - An MP3 player was the victim of this roadside mishap. The client didn't realise that the MP3 player had fallen out of her pocket, and accidentally drove over the offending device.

We just sacked the IT manager and he started kicking the server - The IT manager wasn't up to the job so he was fired. The man in question threw a wobbler, deciding the server had to go before he did. He achieved this by kicking the server until it stopped working, causing data corruption and hardware damage to the hard drives.

There was a bit of oil on it - Quite an understatement. One Disklabs' client had approximately 120 barrels of crude spilt over his laptop, which was in use on an oil rig at the time.

I accidentally threw it out of a window - A student claimed he was 'messing around' with his roommate's laptop. But instead of pretending to throw the laptop out of the window, he chucked it for real – much to the dismay of his roommate.

She just got stroppy and snapped it in half - A client's wife thought he was playing away from home and snapped his mobile in a fit of pique. The phone, a Motorola V3 Razor, was literally snapped in half. Disklabs only received one half of the phone and was still able to retrieve all the SMS messages and contacts.

The dog has had a go at it - a Staffordshire bull terrier took a liking to its owner's camera and bit into it. The memory card inside sustained some damage and arrived still wet from dog saliva.

I was showing my friend how to delete data on the spare hard drive, but I deleted the wrong one - Enough said.

My wife threw my laptop down a well - Another marital dispute. Excuses offered failed to placate an irate wife who took her revenge by throwing her husband's laptop into a 60 foot well.
A class teacher of primary, one day braught a camera along with her to have some group photos of the childeren.

One student asked "Mam why did you bring a camera?"

The teacher exclaimed, "To have some group photos."

And when you people grow up these photos will make you to recall your childhood, and you will show it to your friends or relatives and say, "See this is Martin he is now a Lawer, this is Rick he is a doctor now, and this is Maria and she is a Journalist now."

A voice came forward from the back, "This is our class teacher she is dead now."
Constant as the sands of time, falling grain by grain
Higher than the skies above, that bring the springtime rain

Countless as the twinkling stars, scattered across the night
Hotter than the searing sun which burns by day so bright

Tender as a lover's touch with passion at its peak
More helpless than a newborn babe lying young and weak

Lovely as the sweetest bird singing loves sweet song
Longer than the end of time and then go twice as long

Sweet as all the honey ever made by any bee
Stronger than the mighty oak or any other tree

Lonely as the worlds last man, because we are apart
Deeper than the deepest hole, the hole that's in my heart

My love for you is all these things and more than I can say
My love for you is all I have to get me through each day.

A young wife, who was becoming frustrated with her young husbands constant demands for sex, decides to make a schedule for him, to cut down on the amount of times that they will have to make love for the rest of their marriage.

While getting ready for work, she writes on a piece of paper, "Honey, you know I love you, but your never ending requests for sex are leaving me drained and really tired. So I propose that we only have sex on days that start with the letter 'T', to minimize the frequency of our lovemaking sessions. Don't be mad at me honey, just understand where I am coming from, and let me know if my request is too demanding of you."

On her way out the door, she uses a refrigerator magnet and sticks the note to the fridge door, hoping that her sex craved husband will be understanding and accepting of her proposal when he reads it.

Upon returning home, she glances at the refrigerator and notices that her note has been replaced with a note from her husband that reads, "Baby, I didn't' realize that I was putting you under so much pressure and I'm sorry."

I accept your proposal and have even taken the extra step of listing at the bottom of this letter, those days starting with the letter 'T' to make sure that we are on the same page.

1. TUESDAY
2. THURSDAY
3. TODAY
4. TOMORROW

P.S. "I love you too, and remember it's still TODAY, I am waiting for you upstairs."

A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an American. She asks her students to raise their hands if they were American too.

Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher, their
hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks.

There is, however, one exception. A girl named Gita has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different.

"Because I am not an American." replied Gita.

"Then", asks the teacher, "What are you?"

"I'm a proud Indian," boasts the little girl.

The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks
Gita why she is an Indian.

"Well", my mom and dad are Indians, "so I'm an Indian too."

The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason", she says loudly "if your
mom was an idiot, and your dad was an idiot, what would you be then?"

A pause, and a smile.

"Then" says Gita, "I'd be an American."

Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.

However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.

A breath & a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs & coughing movements squeeze the heart & keep the blood circulating The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm.
Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack.

Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive...

Drinking Cold water after meal = Cancer!

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.

Once this "sludge" reacted with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine.

Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

In andheri raaton me
Hume tum awaaz mat do
Khawab me aane ka
Hume tum dawaat mat do

Tumhara dil itna buland nahin
Humare pyar ka bhojha utha sake
Tumhare baahein itne fauladi nahin
Humara astitva chupa sake

In pyar ki nazaron ne
Tere aham ko nahin dekha
Lekin tumhare swaroop ko saraha
Jo tumne khud nahin dekha

Ab yeh diya bina tel ke
Jale bhi to kab tak
Yeh aansoo bina ashkon ke
Chalke bhi to kab tak

Prabhu tumhare banaye insaan pe
Aasra kare wah pagal hai
Ek tuhi sab ke palan haar
Sab ke jeewan ka khewan haara hai

Kaun kehta hai Dost tumse hamari Judaai hogi,
Ye Khabar kissi aur ne Udaai hogi,
Shaan se rahenge aapke Dil mae hum,
Itne mail mae Humne kuchh toh Jagah banaai hogi.

dosti mein dil ka tamasha dekha nahi jata,
humse tuta hua sisa dekha nahi jata,
apne hisse ki khusiya bhi de du tujhe,
aye dost tera utra hua chehra dekha nahi jata
Falak Ke Teer Ka Kya Nishana Tha
Idhar Mera Ghar, Udhar Uska Aaashiyana Tha
Puhunch Rahi Thi Kinare Pe Kashti-E-Umeed
Usi Waqt Is Tofaan Ko Bhi Yahaan Aana Tha

Ruth gya hai mujhko manane waala
Ab koi nahi naaz mera uthaane wala
Per jaane kya sonchta hai
Yeh khula darwaaza
Shayad rasta bhool gaya, aaane waaala

Rait par likh ke mera naam mitaya na karo
aankhen sach bolti hain, pyaar chupaya na karo
log har baat ka afsana bana lete hain
sab ko haalaat ki rudaad sunaya na karo
ye zaroori nahin har shakhs masiha hi ho
pyaar ke zakhm amaanat hain dikhaya na karo
shahar-e-ehsaas mein pattharaav bahut hain "Mohsin"
dil ko shiishe ke jharonkhon mein sajaaya na karo

Humne kitni koshish ki unhe manane ki,
Na Jaana Kaha se seekh li unhone
Yeh Ada Zidd par utar jaane ki.

Mera Ikraar Tere Inkaar Se Behatar Hoga
Mera Din Bhi Teri Raat Se Behatar Hoga
Yakeen Nahin To Dolee Se Jhankke Dekhna
Mera Janazaa Teri Baaraat Se Behatar Hoga

Mere Honton ke mehaktay hue naghmo par na ja
Mere seenay main kaye aur bhi ghum paltay hain
Mere chehray par dikhaway ka tabassum hai magar
Meri aankhon main udaasi kay diye jalte hain

Rukta bhi nahi, theek se chalta bhi nahi
Yeh dil hai kay tere baad sambhalta hi nahi
Is umar key sehra say teri yaad ka baadal
Talta bhi nahi aur barasta bhi nahi

Daastaan-e-gham-e-dil unko sunaii na gayi
baat bigdii kuchh aisii ki banaii na gayi
Sab ko ham bhool gaye josh-e-junoon mein lekin
ek teri yaad thi aisi ki bhulaai na gayi
Ishq par kuchh na chalaa dida-e-tar ka jaadoo
usne jo aag lagaa di woh bujhaai na gayi

Mana teri nazar mein tera pyaar hum nahi,
kaise kahen ki tere talabgaar hum nahi,
Khud ko jala ke khak kar dala, mita diya,
lo ab tumhari raah mein dewaar hum nahi,
Jis ko sanwara humne tamannaon ke khoon se,
gulshan mein us bahar ke haqdaar hum nahi,
Dhokha diya hai khud ko muhobbat ke naam se,
kaise kahen ki tere gunahgaar hum nahi

Hui hum se ye nadani,
Kay teri mehfil mein aa baithe
Ho kay zameen ki khakh
Aasman se dil laga baithe

Dil si cheez hai, dene ko hai de day
Magar koi qabeel bhi to ho
Hum to jaan de kay bhi khush hain
Magar koi qateel bhi to ho

Yehi Wafaa ka silaah hai, to koi baat nahi
Yeh dard tum ne diya hai, to koi baat nahi
Yehi bohot hai ke tum dekhte ho sahil se
Safeena doob raha hai, to koi baat nahi
Rakha tha aashiyana-e-dil main choopa ke tumko
Woh ghar tumne chor diya hai to koi baat nahi
Tum hi ne aayena-e-dil mera banaya tha
Tum hi ne tor diya hai to koi baat nahi
Kise majaal kahe koi mujh ko deewana
Agar yeh tumne kaha hai to koi baat nahi

Kisi ki kishtiyon ko kinara nahin milta,
Kisi ko dhoodne se sahara nahin milta,
logo ki khushiyan bhi apni
Hamaien to gham bhi hamara nahin milta.

Her insaan kay ache naseeb nahi hote
Her insaan khuhiyon kay kareeb nahi hote
kuch aise bhi hain jo patay hai mohabbat
her insaan mujh jaise badnaseeb nahi hote

Aag jo dil main lagi hai
Usay duniya main laga doon main
Jo teri doli uthi kaheen aur
Zamanay ko jala doon main

Kyon banati ho rait ka mahal
Jis ko ek roze khud mita dogi tum
Aaj kehti ho is diljalay say hai mohabbat
Kal mera naam tak bhool jaogi tum

Hamain to loot liya apno nay
Parayo main kahan dum tha
Meri kishti wahan jaa kay doobi
Jahan paani bhi kam tha

Woh aaye hamari qabar per
Diya bujha ker chal diye
Nishaan to mita hi diya tha
Rooh ko bhi rula ker chal diye

Mere hum-nafas mere hum-nawaaz
mujhay dost ban ke dagaa naa de
Main hun dard-e-ishq ka maaraa huaa
mujhay zindagi ki duaa naa de.....

Kabhie Kisi Roz Yoon Bhi Hota,
Haamari Halat Tumahri Hoti
Jo Raatein Hum Ne Guzaari Mar Ke,
Vo Raatein Tumne Guzaari Hoti

Aye mohabbat tere anjaam pe rona aaya,
Jaane kyun aaj tere naam pe rona aaya..
Yun to har shaam ummeedon me guzar jaati thi,
Aaj kuch baat hai, jo shaam pe rona aaya..
Kabhi taqdir ka maatam, kabhi duniya ka gila,
Manzil-e-ishq me har gaam pe rona aaya...
Jab hua zikr zamaane me mohabbat ka
Mujhko apne dil-e-bekaam pe rona aaya

Is hasrat se mila kya mujhko
Ik jhalak mere dildaar ki
Is muhabbat se mila kya mujhko
Bechaini-o-beqarari yaar ki,
Is ashiqui se mila kya mujhko
Ik sunahari raah ishq ki,
Aur tere pyaar se mila kya mujhko
Ik raah jeene ki hamvaar si

Chaman ki bahaaron mein tha aashiyana
na jaane kahan kho gaya vo zamana
tumhen bhuulane ki main koshish karunga
ye vaada karo ke na tum yaad aana
mujhe mere mitne ka gam hai to ye hai
tumhen bevafaa kah raha hai zamana
Khudara meri qabr pe tum na aana
tumhen dekh kar shaq karega zamana

Wada to ker lete hain
Nibhana bhool jate hain
Lagaaa kar aaag seene main
Bujhana bhool jate hain

Kuchh na kisi se bolenge
tanhaaii mein ro lenge
hum be-rahabaron ka kyaa
saath kisi ke ho lenge
Khud to hue rusvaa lekin
tera bhaid na kholenge
jeevan zahar bharaa saagar
kab tak amrit gholenge
neend to kya aaegii 'Faraz'
maut aai to so lenge

Dost ban ban ke mile mujhko mitaane vaale
mai ne dekhe hain kai rang badalane vaale ........
Tumne chup rahkar sitam aur bhi dhaayaa mujh par
tumse acche hain mere haal pe hansne vaale...
Mai tou ikhlaaq ke haathon hi bikaa kartaa hoon
aur honge tere baazaar mein bikne vaale ......
Aakhrii daur pe salaam-e-dil-e-muztar le lo
phir naa lautenge shab-e-hijr pe ronevaale

Khoob aati hai jab bhi aati hai,
Yaad teri bahot sataati hai,
Dhoop main,chaanw main, ghataao.n mai.n,
Teri soorat ubhar ke aati hai

Bhoolne waale se koyi keh de zara
is tarah yaad aane se kya faaida,
Jab mere dil ki duniya basaati nahin
phir khayaalon mein aane se kya faaida
Kya kahoon aapse kitni umeeden thi
Aap kya badle duniya badal si gayi,
Aasra de ke dil tod te hain mera
Is tarah sataane se kya faaida,
Chaar tinke jala ke kya mil gaya
Mit sakana zamane se mera nishaan,
Mujhpe bijli girao to jaanu sahi
Aashiaan par girane se kya faaida

Daastaan-e-gham-e-dil unko sunaii na gayi
baat bigdii kuchh aisii ki banaii na gayi
Sab ko ham bhool gaye josh-e-junoon mein lekin
ek teri yaad thi aisi ki bhulaai na gayi
Ishq par kuchh na chalaa dida-e-tar ka jaadoo
usne jo aag lagaa di woh bujhaai na gayi

Yaaron mar bhi gaya to,
Aarti meri dafnaa dena
Utha kar janaza mera,
Unki gali ghuma dena
Agar wo mera pata puche to
Shamshaan ghaat bata dena

Yeh ladki jawani main, jawani se, jawano ko tarpaye gi
Aankhon se karegi qatal, aur labon se muskaraye gi

Raat itni haseen thi
Ke saare so rahe the
Hum hi aise badnaseeb the
Jo aap ki yaad main ro rahe the

Falak Ke Teer Ka Kya Nishana Tha Idhar Mera Ghar, Udhar Uska Aaashiyana Tha Puhunch Rahi Thi Kinare Pe Kashti-E-Umeed Usi Waqt Is Tofaan Ko ...
10th Grade

As I sat there in English class,
I stared at the girl next to me.
She was my so-called 'best friend'.
I stared at her long, silky hair,
and wished she was mine.
But she didn't notice me like that,
and I knew it. After class,
she walked up to me and asked me for
the notes she had missed the day before.
I handed them to her.
She said 'thanks' and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know
that I don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

11th Grade

The phone rang. On the other end,
it was her. She was in tears,
mumbling on and on about how her
love had broke her heart.
She asked me to come over because
she didn't want to be alone, So I did.
As I sat next to her on the sofa,
I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine.
After 2 hours, one Drew Barrymore movie,
and three bags of chips, she decided to go home.
She looked at me, said 'thanks' and gave me a kiss on the cheek..
I want to tell her, I want her to know that
I don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don t know why.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Senior Year

One fine day she walked to my locker.
"My date is sick" she said, "he's not gonna go" well,
I didn't have a date, and in 7th grade,
we made a promise that if neither of us had dates,
we would go together just as 'best friends'.
So we did. That night, after everything was over,
I was standing at her front door step.
I stared at her as She smiled at me
and stared at me with her crystal eyes.
Then she said- "I had the best time, thanks!"
and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her,
I want her to know
that I don t want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Graduation.

A day passed, then a week, then a month.
Before I could blink, it was graduation day.
I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel
up on stage to get her diploma.
I wanted her to be mine-but
she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it.
Before everyone went home,
she came to me in her smock and hat,
and cried as I hugged her.
Then she lifted her head from my shoulder
and said- 'you're my best friend, thanks' and
gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know
that I don t want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Marriage.

Now I sit in the pews of the church.
That girl is getting married now.
and drive off to her new life,
married to another man.
I wanted her to be mine,
but she didn't see me like that, and I knew it.
But before she drove away,
she came to me and said 'you came !'.
She said 'thanks' and kissed me on the cheek.
I want her to know that
I don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Death.

Years passed, I looked down at the coffin
of a girl who used to be my 'best friend'.
At the service, they read a diary entry
she had wrote in her high school years.
This is what it read:
"I stare at him wishing he was mine;
but he doesn't notice me like that,
and I know it. I want to tell him,
I want him to know that
I don't want to be just friends,
I love him but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.
I wish he would tell me he loved me !
.........'I wish I did too...'


I thought to my self, and I cried.
Dil ke kone se ek aawaz aati hai,
Hame har pal unki yaad aati hai.
Dil puchta hai bar-bar humse,
Jinhe hum yaad karte hai,
kya unhe bhi hamari yaad aati hai.

Dil ko adat si ho gayi hai chhot khane ki,
Bhigi palko k sang muskurane ki,
Kash anjam hum pehle se jaan jate,
To koshish bhi na karte dil lagane ki.

Haqiqat pehchaan lo bichard jane se pehle,
Meri sunlo apne sunane se pheele.
Ye soch lena bhulane se pehle,
Bhut royi hai ye aankhe muskurane se phele.
Tujhe Pyaar mera satayega
Yaadon ke toofan utthaye ga
Mera naam likh ker kitabon main
Tu logon ke darr se mitayega
Zikar mera aksar karne se pehle
Tu kuch soch ker muskuraye ga
Baatein meri yaad aayengi
Jitna tu unhain bhulaye ga
Tera Dil mujhe jo dekhna bhi chahe
Tu nazron ko phir bhi jhukaye ga
Jis ne mujhe itna sataya hai
Us ka chain bhi koi churaye ga

Zindagi ka har ek pal kiya hai tere naam maine...,
teri chaukhat pe aaya thha, bas itna hi main kehnay,
kya tha wo jo teri ankho me maine dekha,
laakh chupao tum, mujhse kuch na chupega,
pyar kiya hai tujhse, teri ankho ko samajhta hoon,
yunhi nahi daawa tujhse pyar karne ka karta hoon,
tumhari zuban se lekar tumhari khamoshi tak ko chaha hai,
pyar main maine tujhse kabhi kuch bhi nahi maanga hai......,
main jaanta hoon tumne mujhse kabhi pyaar nahi kiya,
isiliye shayad maine kabhi izhaar bhi nahin kiya.....,

**********************************************************

Mohabbat main itna door nikal jayenge kabhi socha na tha
Hum wafa karke bhi bewafa kehlaayenge kabhi socha na tha
Zamane se tanha hi takrayen ge kabhi socha na tha
Hum to Pyaar ke naam se hi na aashna the
Chahat ki itni bari saza payenge kabhi socha na tha
Us ka her andaaz doorson se judda lagta hai
Uske rang main hum rang jayenge kabhi socha na tha

*******************************************************

Jab Teri Dhun Main Jia Kartay Thay
Hum Bhi Chup Chaap Phira Kartay Thay
Aankhoon Main Pyaas Hua Karti Thi
Dil Main Toofan Utha Kartay Thay
Loog Aatay Thay Ghazal Sunanay Ko
Hum Teri Baatien Kia Kartay Thay
Sach Samajhtay Thay Terey Wadoon Ko
Raat Din Ghar Main Raha Kartay Thay
Woh Bhi Kya Din Thay Tujhay Bhula Kar
Hum Tujhay Yaad Kya Kartay Thay
Kal Tujhay Dekh Kar Yaad Aya
Hum Bhi Kabhi Mohabbat Kia Kartay Thay

A child was playing with a vase his Mother had left on the table for a few Moments. When the mother turned at the sound Of her son crying she saw that his hand was In the vase and was apparently stuck. She Tried to help him and pulled and pulled until The child cried out in pain. But the hand Was stuck fast. How would they get it out? The father suggested breaking the vase but It was quite valuable and the child's hand Might be cut in the process. Yet he knew that If all else failed there would be no Other alternative.

So he said to the boy, "Now, let's make one More try. Open your hand and stretch your Fingers out straight, like I'm doing, and Then pull!" "But Dad," said the boy, "if I do That I'll lose my penny!"

The boy had had a coin in his hand all the time And was holding it securely in his tight little fist. And he wasn't prepared to open his hand and lose the Penny. But once he opened his hand it Came out of the vase easily.

Story 01
It's a fine sunny day in the forest and a lion is sitting outside his cave, lying lazily in the sun. Along comes a fox, out on a walk.

Fox: "Do you know the time, because my watch is broken"

Lion: "Oh, I can easily fix the watch for you"

Fox: "Hmm... But it's a very complicated mechanism, & your big claws will only destroy it even more"

Lion: "Oh no, give it to me, and it will be fixed"

Fox: "That's ridiculous! Any fool knows that lazy lions with great claws cannot fix complicated watches"

Lion: "Sure they do, give it to me and it will be fixed"

The lion disappears into his cave, & after a while he comes back with the watch which is running perfectly. The fox is impressed, & the lion continues to lie lazily in the sun, looking very pleased with himself.

Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the lazy lion in the sun.

Wolf: "Can I come and watch TV tonight with you, because mine is broken"

Lion: "Oh, I can easily fix your TV for you"

Wolf: "You don't expect me to believe such rubbish, do you? There is no way that a lazy lion with big claws can fix a complicated TV"

Lion: "No problem. Do you want to try it?"

The lion goes into his cave, and after a while comes back with a perfectly fixed TV. The wolf goes away happily and amazed.

Scene: Inside the lion's cave. In one corner are half a dozen small & intelligent looking rabbits who are busily doing very complicated work with very detailed instruments. In the other corner lies a huge lion looking very pleased with himself.

Moral: IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY A MANAGER IS FAMOUS; LOOK AT THE WORK OF HIS SUBORDINATES.

Management Lesson: In the context of the working world: IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY SOMEONE UNDESERVED IS PROMOTED; LOOK AT THE WORK OF HIS SUBORDINATES.


Story 02
It's a fine sunny day in the forest and a rabbit is sitting outside his burrow, tippy-tapping on his typewriter. Along comes a fox, out for a walk.

Fox: "What are you working on?"

Rabbit: "My thesis."

Fox: "Hmm... What is it about?"

Rabbit: "Oh, I'm writing about how rabbits eat foxes."

Fox: "That's ridiculous ! Any fool knows that rabbits don't eat foxes!"

Rabbit: "Come with me and I'll show you!"

They both disappear into the rabbit's burrow. After few minutes, gnawing on a fox bone, the rabbit returns to his typewriter & resumes typing.

Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the hardworking rabbit.

Wolf: "What's that you are writing?"

Rabbit: "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat wolves."

Wolf: "you don't expect to get such rubbish published, do you?"

Rabbit: "No problem. Do y ou want to see why?"

The rabbit & the wolf go into the burrow & again the rabbit returns by himself, after a few minutes, & goes back to typing.

Finally a bear comes along and asks, "What are you doing?

Rabbit: "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat bears."

Bear: "Well that's absurd ! "

Rabbit: "Come into my home and I'll show you"

Scene : As they enter the burrow, the rabbit introduces the bear to the lion.

Moral: IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW SILLY YOUR THESIS TOPIC IS; WHAT MATTERS IS WHOM YOU HAVE AS A SUPERVISOR.

Management Lesson, In the context of the working world: IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW BAD YOUR PERFORMANCE IS; WHAT MATTERS IS WHETHER YOUR BOSS LIKES YOU OR NOT.
MUTUAL TRUST

TRUST is a very important factor for all relationships. When trust is broken, it is the end of the relationship. Lack of trust leads to suspicion, suspicion generates anger, anger causes enmity and enmity may result in separation.

A telephone operator told me that one day she received a phone call. She answered, "Public Utilities Board." There was silence. She repeated, "PUB." There was still no answer. When she was going to cut off the line, she Heard a lady's voice, "Oh, so this is PUB. Sorry, I got the number from my Husband's pocket but I do not know whose number it is."

Without mutual trust, just imagine what will happen to the couple if the telephone operator answered with just "hello" instead of "PUB".


NO POINTING FINGERS

A man asked his father-in-law, "Many people praised you for a successful marriage. Could you please share with me your secret?" The father-in-law answered in a smile, "Never criticize your wife for her shortcomings or when she does something wrong. Always bear in mind that because of her shortcomings and weaknesses, she could not find a better husband than you."

We all look forward to being loved and respected. Many people are afraid of losing face. Generally, when a person makes a mistake, he would look around to find a scapegoat to point the finger at. This is the start of a war. We should always remember that when we point one finger at a person, the other four fingers are pointing at ourselves. If we forgive the others, others will ignore our mistake too.

CREATING PERFECT RELATIONSHIPS?

A person visited the government matchmaker for marriage, SDU, and requested "I am looking for a spouse. Please help me to find a suitable one." The SDU officer said, "Your requirements, please." "Oh, good looking, polite, humorous , sporty, knowledgeable, good in singing and dancing. Willing to accompany me the whole day at home during my leisure hour, if I don't go out. Telling me interesting stories when I need companion for conversation and be silent when I want to rest." The officer listened carefully and replied, "I understand you need television."

There is a saying that a perfect match can only be found between a blind wife and a deaf husband ,because the blind wife cannot see the faults of the husband and the deaf husband cannot hear the nagging of the wife. Many couples are blind and deaf at the courting stage and dream of perpetual perfect relationship. Unfortunately, when the excitement of love wears off, they wake up and discover that marriage is not a bed of roses. The nightmare begins.

NO OVERPOWERING

Many relationships fail because one party tries to overpower another, or demands too much. People in love tend to think that love will conquer all and their spouses will change the bad habits after marriage. Actually, this is not the case. There is a Chinese saying which carries the meaning that "It is easier to reshape a mountain or a river than a person's character."

It is not easy to change. Thus, having high expectation on changing the spouse character will cause disappointment and unpleasantness. It would be less painful to change ourselves and lower our expectations..

RIGHT SPEECH

There is a Chinese saying which carries the meaning that "A speech will either prosper or ruin a nation." Many relationships break off because of wrong speech. When a couple is too close with each other, we always forget mutual respect and courtesy. We may say anything without considering if it would hurt the other party.

A friend and her millionaire husband visited their construction site. A worker who wore a helmet saw her and shouted, "Hi, Emily! Remember me? We used to date in the secondary school." On the way home, her millionaire husband teased her, "Luckily you married me. Otherwise you will be the wife of a construction worker." She answered ,"You should appreciate that you married me. Otherwise, he will be the millionaire and not you." Frequently exchanging these remarks plants the seed for a bad relationship. It's like a broken egg - cannot be reversed.

PERSONAL PERCEPTION

Different people have different perception. One man's meat could be another man's poison. A couple bought a donkey from the market. On the way home, a boy commented, "Very stupid. Why neither of them ride on the donkey? "Upon hearing that, the husband let the wife ride on the donkey. He walked besides them. Later, an old man saw it and commented, "The husband is the head of family. How can the wife ride on the donkey while the husband is on foot?" Hearing this, the wife quickly got down and let the husband ride on the donkey.

Further on the way home, they met an old Lady. She commented, "How can the man ride on the donkey but let the wife walk. He is no gentleman." The husband thus quickly asked the wife to join him on the donkey. Then, they met a young man. He commented, "Poor donkey, how can you hold up the weight of two persons. They are cruel to you." Hearing that, the husband and wife immediately climbed down from the donkey and carried it on their shoulders.

It seems to be the only choice left. Later, on a narrow bridge, the donkey was frightened and struggled. They lost their balance and fell into the river. You can never have everyone praise you, nor will everyone condemn you. Never in the past, not at present, and never will be in the future. Thus, do not be too bothered by others words if our conscience is clear..

BE PATIENT

This is a true story which happened in the States. A man came out of his home to admire his new truck. To his puzzlement, his three-year-old son was happily hammering dents into the shiny paint of the truck. The man ran to his son, knocked him away, hammered the little boy's hands into pulp as punishment. When the father calmed down, he rushed his son to the hospital.

Although the doctor tried desperately to save the crushed bones, he finally had to amputate the fingers from both the boy's hands. When the boy woke up from the surgery & saw his bandaged stubs, he innocently said, " Daddy,I'm sorry about your truck." Then he asked, "but when are my fingers going to grow back?" The father went home & committed suicide.

Think about this story the next time someone steps on your feet or u wish to take revenge. Think first before u lose your patience with someone u love. Trucks can be repaired.. Broken bones & hurt feelings often can't. Too often we fail to recognize the difference between the person and the performance. We forget that forgiveness is greater than revenge.


People make mistakes. We are allowed to make mistakes. But the actions we take while in a rage will haunt us forever.
The following gems of wisdom were gleaned from test papers and essays from elementary, junior high, high school, and college students of USA. As one teacher noted, "It is truly astonishing what weird stuff our young scholars can create under the pressures of time and grades!"

1. "Water is composed of two gins, Oxygin & Hydrogin. Oxygin is pure gin. Hydrogin is gin and water."

2. "Blood flows down one leg & up the other."

3. "Dew is formed on leaves when the sun shines down on them & makes them perspire."

4. "Mushrooms always grow in damp places & so they look like umbrellas."

5. "Momentum: What you give a person when they are going away."

6. "To prevent milk from turning sour, keep it in the cow."

7. "The parts of speech are lungs and air."

8. "The inhabitants of Moscow are called Mosquitoes."

9. "A census taker is a man who goes from house to house increasing the population."

10. "Most of the houses in France are made of plaster of Paris."

11. "The spinal column is a long bunch of bones. The head sits on the top & you sit on the bottom."

12. "The word trousers is an uncommon noun because it is singular at the top & plural at the bottom."

13. "Iron was discovered because someone smelt it."

14. "Syntax is all the money collected at the church from sinners."

15. Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf he wrote loud music. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling for him. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died for this.

One rainy afternoon I was driving along one of the main streets of town, taking those extra precautions necessary when the roads are wet and slick. Suddenly, my daughter, Aspen, spoke up from her relaxed position in her seat. "Dad, I'm thinking of something."

This announcement usually meant she had been pondering some fact for a while, and was now ready to expound all that her six-year-old mind had discovered. I was eager to hear.

"What are you thinking?" I asked.

"The rain!" she began, "is like sin, and the windshield wipers are like God wiping our sins away."

After the chill bumps raced up my arms I was able to respond. "That's really good, Aspen."

Then my curiosity broke in. How far would this little girl take this revelation? So I asked... "Do you notice how the rain keeps on coming? What does that tell you?" Aspen didn't hesitate one moment with her answer:

"We keep on sinning, and God just keeps on forgiving us." I will always remember this whenever I turn my wipers on.

In order to see the Rainbow, you must first endure some Rain.

As the dream of most parents I had acquired a degree in Software Engineer and joined a company based in USA, the land of braves and opportunity. When I arrived in the USA, it was as if a dream had come true. Here at last I was in the place where I want to be. I decided I would be staying in this country for about five years in which time I would have earned enough money to settle down in India.

My father was a government employee and after his retirement, the only asset he could acquire was a decent one bedroom flat. I wanted to do some thing more than him. I started feeling homesick and lonely as the time passed. I used to call home and speak to my parents every week using cheap international phone cards. Two years passed, two years of Burgers at McDonald's and pizzas and discos and 2 years watching the foreign exchange rate getting happy whenever the Rupee value went down.

Finally I decided to get married. Told my parents that I have only 10 days of holidays and everything must be done within these 10 days. I got my ticket booked in the cheapest flight. Was jubilant and was actually enjoying shopping for gifts for all my friends back home. If I miss anyone then there will be talks. After reaching home I spent home one week going through all the photographs of girls and as the time was getting shorter I was forced to select one candidate. In-laws told me, to my surprise, that I would have to get married in 2-3 days, as I will not get anymore holidays. After the marriage, it was time to return to USA, after giving some money to my parents and telling the neighbors to look after them, we returned to USA.

My wife enjoyed this country for about two months and then she started feeling lonely. The frequency of calling India increased to twice in a week sometimes 3 times a week. Our savings started diminishing. After two more years we started to have kids. Two lovely kids, a boy and a girl, were gifted to us by the almighty. Every time I spoke to my parents, they asked me to come to India so that they can see their grand-children. Every year I decide to go to India. But part work part monetary conditions prevented it. Years went by and visiting India was a distant dream. Then suddenly one day I got a message that my parents were seriously sick. I tried but I couldn't get any holidays and thus could not go to India. The next message I got was my parents had passed away and as there was no one to do the last rights the society members had done whatever they could. I was depressed. My parents had passed away without seeing their grand children.

After couple more years passed away, much to my children's dislike and my wife's joy we returned to India to settle down. I started to look for a suitable property, but to my dismay my savings were short and the property prices had gone up during all these years. I had to return to the USA. My wife refused to come back with me and my children refused to stay in India. My 2 children and I returned to USA after promising my wife I would be back for good after two years.

Time passed by, my daughter decided to get married to an American and my son was happy living in USA. I decided that had enough and wound-up every thing and returned to India. I had just enough money to buy a decent 2-bedroom flat in a well-developed locality. Now I am 60 years old and the only time I go out of the flat is for the routine visit to the nearby temple. My faithful wife has also left me and gone to the holy abode.

Sometimes I wondered was it worth all this? My father, even after staying in India, had a house to his name and I too have the same nothing more. I lost my parents and children for just ONE EXTRA BEDROOM.

Looking out from the window I see a lot of children dancing. This damned cable TV has spoiled our new generation and these children are losing their values and culture because of it. I get occasional cards from my children asking I am alright. Well at least they remember me. Now perhaps after I die it will be the neighbors again who will be performing my last rights, God Bless them. But the question still remains 'was all this worth it?'

I stopped at a florist shop after work to pick up roses for my wife.

As the clerk was putting the finishing touches on the bouquet, a young man burst through the door, Breathlessly requesting a dozen red roses.

"I'm sorry," the clerk said. "This man just ordered our last bunch."

The desperate customer turned to me and begged, "May I please have those roses?"

"What happened?" I asked. "Did you forget your wedding anniversary?"

"It's even worse than that," he confided. "I crashed my wife's hard drive!"
Two physicians opened an office in a small town & put up a sign Reading:

Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones
Psychiatry and Proctology

The town council was not happy with the sign, so the doctors changed it to
Hysterias and Posteriors

This was not acceptable either, so in an effort to satisfy the Council they changed the sign to
Schizoids and Hemorrhoids
No go.

Next, they tried
Catatonics and High Colonics
Thumbs down again.

Then came
Manic Depressives and Anal Retentives
Still no good.

Another attempt resulted in
Minds and Behinds
Unacceptable again.

So they tried
Lost Souls and Butt Holes
No way.

Analysis and Anal Cysts
Nope.

Nuts and Butts
Uh uh.

Freaks and Cheeks
Still no go.

Loons and Moons
Forget it.

Almost at their wit's end, the doctors finally came up with:

Dr Smith and Dr. Jones
Odds and Ends

The colonel had three Second Lieutenants eligible for promotion. The problem was, he only had one First Lieutenant Slot available.

The colonel called the first candidate his office and said, "This is a promotion test. If I was to tell you that I wanted a flag pole erected in front of Post HQ by 1500, what would you do?"

The Lt. thought about it for a second, and said, "Sir. I would get a shovel, head for HQ and start digging. "

"You're not ready to be promoted," the Colonel interrupted.

The colonel asked the same question of the next candidate.

"Sir," said the next Lt., "I would fill out a CE work order, making sure I made provisions for the appropriate environmental study and . . . "

"You are definitely not ready to be promoted," the Colonel said.

The Colonel asked the question of the final candidate.

Without hesitation, the Lieutenant said, "Sir. I would call the First Sergeant, and say, "Top, I want a @#$#@ flag pole in front of HQ by 1500!"

"You're ready to be promoted," the Colonel said.

I sit in the park where I dwell,
For this Girl I love so well.
She took my heart away from me,
Now She wants to set me free.
I see a boy on her arm,
She says things to him she never said to me.

I ran home to cry on my bed,
Not a word to mother was said.
Father came home late that night,
He looked at me from left to right.
He saw me hanging from a rope,

He took his knife to cut me down.
And on my dress a note was found:

Dig my grave, Dig it deep.
Dig my grave, From head to feet.
And on the top place a dove.
And remember this, I died for love.

''Dream as if you will live forever, Live as if you will die today''

A pizza gets to our house faster than an ambulance.

There are handicap parking places in the front of skating rinks.

Drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

People order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.

Banks leave two sets of front doors unlocked and open and then chain their pens to the counter.

We leave cars worth thousand of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

We use answering machines to screen our calls and then have "call waiting" so we won't miss a call from someone we don't want to talk to in the first place.

We buy hotdogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

We use the word "politics" to precisely describe our crazy process: "poli" in Latin means "many" and "tics" means "bloodsucking creatures".

We have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.

In the days when you couldn't count on a public toilet facility, an Englishwoman was planning a trip to India. She was registered to stay in a small guest house owned by the local schoolmaster.

She was concerned as to whether the guest house contained a WC. In England, a bathroom is commonly called a WC which stands for "Water Closet". She wrote to the schoolmaster inquiring the facilities about the WC.

The school master, not fluent in English, asked the local priest if he knew the meaning of WC. Together they pondered possible meanings of the letters & concluded that the lady wanted to know if there was a "Wayside Chapel" near the house.. a bathroom never entered their minds.

So the schoolmaster, with the help of the priest, got together the following reply:

Dear Madam,

I take great pleasure in informing you that the WC is Located 9 miles from the house. It is located in the middle of a grove of pine trees, surrounded by lovely grounds. It is capable of holding 29 people and is open on Sundays and Thursdays. As there are many people expected in the summer months, I suggest you arrive early. There is, however, plenty of standing room. This is an unfortunate situation especially if you are in the habit of going regularly.

It may be of some interest to you that my daughter was married in the WC as it was there that she met her husband. It was a wonderful event. There were 10 people in every seat. It was wonderful to see the expressions on their faces. My wife, sadly, has been ill and unable to go recently. It has been almost a year since she went, which pains her greatly. You will be pleased to last know that many people bring their lunch & make a day of it. Others prefer to wait till the last minute and arrive just in time!

I would recommend your ladyship plan to go on a Thursday as there is an organ accompaniment. The acoustics are excellent and even the most delicate sounds can be heard everywhere. The newest addition is a bell which rings every time a person enters.

We are holding a bazaar to provide plush seats for all since many feel it is long needed. I look forward to escorting you there myself & seating you in a place where you can be seen by all.

With Deepest Regards,
The Schoolmaster.
