Wrong Flowers
They arrived at the new business site and the owner read the card,.... "Rest in Peace."
The owner was angry and called the florist to complain.
After he had told the florist of the obvious mistake and how angry he was, the florist replied,
"Sir, I'm really sorry for the mistake, but rather than getting angry, you should imagine this: somewhere, there is a funeral taking place today, and they have flowers with a note saying,... 'Congratulations on your new location!'"

Mysterious Beginnings
We humans have a tendency to yearn for the light, for the coming of spring, and for the more visible phase of growth that all things express in coming to be. In our love for what we can see with our eyes we sometimes lose patience for, and interest in, the world of darkness that nurtures and protects the seeds, bulbs, and babies of the world for such an important part of their life cycles. It is a perilous and mysterious phase of growth, and one that we have little control over, and perhaps that is why we don't celebrate it with quite the same passion as we do the lighter and brighter phases of life. Nevertheless, we ourselves endure similar periods of developing in the darkness throughout our lives.
Meditating on the image of a bulb, a seed, or an embryo, can bring us into alignment with the side of our own natures that is like the earth in winter—seemingly asleep but busily attending to details of growth that create the pattern for the children, flowers, and creative expressions to come. Touching down on this place in ourselves, we may feel at once peaceful and activated, utterly still and yet fully creative, quietly in tune with the dark and mysterious beginnings of life.
Surprising Uses for Salt
- Pick up a dropped egg. If an egg breaks on the kitchen floor, sprinkle salt on the mess and leave it there for 20 minutes. You'll be able to wipe it right up.
- Soothe a bee sting. Wet the sting right away, then cover it with salt.
- Eliminate a grease fire. Pour salt on top to smother it. (Never use water on a grease fire.)
- Clean up oven spills. If food boils over onto the oven floor, sprinkle salt on top to stop smoke and odor from forming. When the oven is cool, it'll be easy to brush away the spot.
- Set color. If a dye may run, soak the garment for an hour in 1/2 gallon of water to which you've added 1/2 cup vinegar and 1/2 cup salt. If rinse water shows color, repeat. This is good for a single-colored fabric or madras. If the item is multicolored, dry-clean it. (Although American-made fabrics are unlikely to run, fabrics from abroad are sometimes iffy.)
- Kill poison ivy. Add three pounds of salt to a gallon of soapy water. Spray it onto leaves and stems.
- Make cream whip more easily and egg whites whip faster and higher. Add a pinch of salt.
- Test for rotten eggs. Put an egg in a cup of water to which you've added two teaspoons of salt. A fresh egg will sink, but one that's iffy will float.
- Clean the brown spots (from starch) off a non-stick soleplate (the bottom of your iron). Sprinkle salt on a sheet of waxed paper, slide the iron across it, then rub lightly with silver polish.
- Repel fleas. Wash the doghouse with it.
- Kill grass growing in cracks in the cement or between patio stones. Sprinkle salt on the grass and pour very hot water over it. Or sprinkle coarse salt on the grass, let stand all day or overnight, then pour hot tap water over it.
- Clean a glass coffee pot. Fill it with a quarter-cup of table salt and a dozen ice cubes. Swish the mixture around, let it sit for half an hour, fill it with cold water and rinse.
- Halt the mountain of suds from an overflowing washing machine. Sprinkle salt on the top.
- Clean artificial flowers. Put them in a bag of salt and shake the bag. Take a look at the color of the salt and you'll see what you've accomplished.
- Keep windows frost-free. Dip a sponge into salt water and rub it on windows, and they won't frost up even when the mercury dips below 32 degrees; for the same effect on your car's windshield, put salt in a little bag made of cheesecloth, moisten it slightly and rub it on.
- Clean tarnished copper.Fill a 16-ounce spray bottle with hot white vinegar and three tablespoons of salt. Spray it onto the copper, let it sit briefly, then rub clean. (Don't do this to lacquered copper.)
- Keep radishes safe in the garden. Salt worms (cutworms) will be repelled if you sprinkle seeds with table salt, then cover with dirt.
- Clean coffee and tea stains from china cups. Rub them with salt.
- Keep potatoes and apples from turning brown once they're sliced. Put them in salted cold water.
- Clean a cutting board. Cover it with bleach and salt, scrub it with a stiff brush, then rinse with very hot water and wipe with a clean cloth. Repeat with each

Part Of The Process
When we feel stuck in our lives it's important to take stock of what is going on and find out if there is something we are doing or not doing that is keeping us stuck. Sometimes the situation is out of our control, and we need to look within to find the patience required to wait with equanimity until things move forward again. Many times, though, we can find the source of our stagnation in our own hearts and minds.
Sometimes we are clinging to old ideas about reality and we need to make adjustments that will bring us back in tune with life, so we can flow again. Sometimes we find that fear of change is what's keeping us stuck, and we can resolve to find ways of facing that fear.
If introspection does not provide the answers we need, it can sometimes be helpful to ask those around you if they notice anything obvious that you might not be able to see. Remember to ask someone whom you can trust to be kind and sensitive as well as honest. Try to let go of your resistance because whenever there is something we can't see ourselves, it's because we don't want to see it. Try to listen with an open mind, and remember that you are always the final judge of what you need. Anything offered to us from an outside source will need to be processed within before its wisdom can take hold.
In all this, be kind to yourself and remember that we all get stuck sometimes. Think of it as a part of your process, a necessary step on your journey, rather than as a problem that shouldn't be happening. This can help to keep your frustration at bay and give you the space you need to take a deep breath and really figure out what's going on.
The Moment a Child is Born...
My Mom
"The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny."
"I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life."
"Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible."
My Daddy
"How pleasant it is for a father to sit at his child's board. It is like an aged man reclining under the shadow of an oak which he has planted."
"Father in Heaven! When the thought of thee wakes in our hearts, let it not awaken like a frightened bird that flies about in dismay, but like a child waking from its sleep with a heavenly smile."

6 Easy Ways to Treat Your Damaged Hair
- Do a Protein Treatment
Protein treatments will temporarily fill in the gaps of your hair cuticle to make it stronger. There are different levels of protein treatments ranging from hard-core proteins like Aphogee to milder protein treatments like ORS Hair Mayo. Whatever you choose, make sure that you read and follow the directions. Protein treatments can sometimes cause the hair to become hard. Therefore, you should always follow up your protein treatment with a moisturizing conditioner. You will
need to do this protein treatment at least once a month for your damaged hair. - Deep Condition with Heat
Use a moisturizing conditioner that is made for damaged or dry hair weekly. Thoroughly apply it to your hair and cover with a plastic cap. Sit under a hair dryer for at least 20 minutes. Heat is an important element of deep conditioning and will help the conditioner penetrate your hair strands more effectively. - Wash with Conditioner Only
If you wash your hair more than once a week, try cleansing it with conditioner instead. Simply rinse your hair well, then slather it with conditioner. Massage your hair and scalp just as if it were shampoo. Detangle and rinse. Remember to alternate with shampoo to avoid build up. - Hydrate Hair More Often
The longer you go between washing your hair, the dryer it will become especially for curly, wavy, and kinky hair that is damaged. Try washing twice a week to hydrate your hair with water. Remember to seal in the moisture by applying a light oil. - Get a Good Trim
Getting your hair trimmed will immediately make a difference in your hair's appearance. It will also put you on the road for healthier hair. You do not have to trim off all of the damage at once. Just do a little at a time. Set a schedule of maybe every 8 weeks to have 1/2 inch trimmed until your hair is healthy. - Limit Direct Heat
I know this one is hard but it will yield the biggest results. If your hair is already damaged, applying more heat will just add to the damage. Instead, try roller setting your hair for a beautiful hair style with no direct heat.
I hope you will give a few of these methods a try if you're experiencing damaged hair. The sooner you start, the sooner you will begin to see results. Treating damaged hair takes time but once you have the proper knowledge to conquer it, you'll see it is possible to get the healthy hair you desire.
Quote / Thought for the Day 24-02-2008
“Where there is no love, there can not be peace.
Where there is no purity, there can not be love.”
Tonic for the Mind - 8
Take charge of your worrying – and time-traveling – mind and the illusion that you can control the so-called future. You know, the future doesn't really exist – yet. Catch your- self building-up tension and use it as a signal to quickly shift your focus back to the present. It is only in the present moment that you can do something to avoid future danger or develop plans to cope with it. Practice using a phrase such as "What can I do now?" to get your mind into the present working on problem resolution.

Tonic for the Mind - 7
Set yourself a goal a month. Not many of us
are great, achieve greatness or, by fluke, have
greatness thrust upon us. So never mind the
great goals. We can only make do with what
we've got. Small goals are still goals and precious
in the sight of someone- even if that someone
is only little old you...start now and, come December
consider the year well spent.

Tonic for the Mind - 6
When the attention is not on the object,
there is no experience of sorrow.
If you can substract and reject the object
from any thought in you, you can reach for
that state of consciousness in which the
thought shines. From experience to experience,
shift your attention to the One that illumines
it...... and live life in wisdom and peace
centered in HIM.
- Swami Chinmayananda
Grab The First Opportunity
Opportunities – Small or Big. They come and go.
Some will be easy to take advantage of, some will be difficult.
But once we let them pass in hopes of something better,
those opportunities may never again be available.
Always grab the first opportunity.

A Beautiful Love story which will touch your Heart....... ......
Although, at that time he was just a small fry in his company, his future didn't seem too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot visualize any future for the both of them, so they went their own ways there and then...
Heartbroken, the guy agreed. But when he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make something out of himself.
Finally with all the hard work and the help of friends, this guy had set up his own company .
You never fail until you stop trying. One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to realize they were his girl's parents.
With a heart in getting back at them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same any more; he had his own company, car, condo, etc. He made it! What he saw next confused him, the couple was walking towards a cemetery, and so he got out of his car and followed...and he saw his girl, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone and he saw his paper cranes right beside her...
Her parents saw him. He asked them why this had happened. They explained, she did not leave for France at all. She was ill with cancer. She had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want to be his obstacle... therefore she had chosen to leave him.
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. She had wanted her parents to put his paper cranes beside her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to her again...he can take some of those back with him...
Once you have loved, you will always love. For what's in your mind may escape but what's in your heart will remain forever.
The guy just wept...The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside her knowing you can't have her, see her or be with her ever again....... ..hope you understand.
Find time to realize that there is one person who means so much to you, for you might wake up one morning losing that person who you thought meant nothing to you.

Outside of God there is no security; no matter where you go. Be free right now..realize you are His child. Be connected in His spirit and your life...every minute of it becomes precious existence in Him.

Aitbaar
Bagair jane pehchane ikrar na kijiye,
Muskura kar dil ko bekarar na kijiye,
Gulab bhi de jate hai zakhm gehra kabi kabi,
Har Gulab par yu aitbaar na kijiye.

Karoge yaad ek din is pyar ke zamane ko,
Chale jayenge jab hum kabhi na vapas aane ko.
Chalega mehfil me jab zikr hamara koi,
To tum bhi tanhayi dhundoge aansu bahane ko.
~~~~~~~~~
Tujhe bhoolkar bhi na bhool payenge hum,
Bas yahi ek wada nibha payenge hum.
Mita denge khud ko bhi jahan se lekin,
Tera naam dil se na mita payenge hum..
~~~~~~~~~
Is kadar hum yaar ko manane nikle,
Uski chahat ke hum deewane nikle,
Jab bhi use dil ka haal batana chaha,
To uske hothon se waqt na hone ke bahane nikle...

True love never dies ....(WOW)
Two Lovers plan to Suicide.
Boy jumped first;
Girl closed her eyes, and returns back saying
Love is Blind.
The Boy, in mid-air opened his parachute saying
Love never Dies.....
What is Life Without You?
You left me in tears, you âre entered my heart..
It wasn't your fault, I guess it was mine..
For love can't be forced,
neither our mind.
I've tried more than once, to get over you..
But you make it so hard, with cute things you do..
I thought love was a good feeling,
but I've got nothing to gain.
just sorrows and tears
and a li'l more pain..
The day the pain started, reality came too.
It was the day I realized .....
What is Life Without You?...

A gujarati boy
An Irish boy put his hand up and said, "It was St. Patrick." The teacher said, "Sorry Alan, that's not correct."
Then a Scottish boy put his hand up and said, "It was St. Andrew." The teacher replied, "I'm sorry, Hamish, that's not right either.
Finally, a Gujarati boy raised his hand and said, "It was Jesus Christ." The teacher said, "That's absolutely right, Jayant, come up here and I'll give you the $20."
As the teacher was giving Jayant his money, she said, "You know Jayant, since you are Gujarati, I was very surprised you said Jesus Christ." Jayant replied, "Yes, in my heart I knew it was Lord Krishna, but business is business!"
Your ALTITUDE is decided by your ATTITUDE
A little boy went into a drug store, reached for a soda carton and asks him for a Phone Call. Shop-owner replied Sweety this is no a STD, but you can do one call. The store-owner observed and listened to the conversation:
The boy asked, "Lady, Can you give me the job of cutting your lawn?
The woman replied, "I already have someone to cut my lawn."
“Lady, I will cut your lawn for half the price of the person who cuts your lawn now." replied boy.
The woman responded that she was very satisfied with the person who was presently cutting her lawn.
The little boy found more perseverance and offered, "Lady, I'll even sweep your curb and your sidewalk, so on Sunday you will have the prettiest lawn in all of North-Palm beach, Florida ."
Again the woman answered in the negative.
With a smile on his face, the little boy replaced the receiver.
The store-owner, who was listening to all this, walked over to the boy and said," Son... I like your attitude; I like that positive spirit and would like to offer you a job."
The little boy replied, "No thanks, I was just checking my performance with the job I already have. I am the one who is working for that lady, I was talking to!"

MY DEAR FRIEND..
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support,
to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are.
They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.
They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.
things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson,
love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
Thank you for being a part of my life,
whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.
A cute love story..
