What is maturity?

What is maturity? Maturity is the ability to control anger and settle differences without violence or destruction. Maturity is patience. It is the willingness to pass up immediate pleasure in favor of the long-term gain. Maturity is perseverance, the ability to sweat out a project or a situation in spite of heavy opposition and discouraging set-backs. Maturity is the capacity to face unpleasantness and frustration, discomfort and defeat, without complaint or collapse. Maturity is humility. It is being big enough to say, "I was wrong." And, when right, the mature person need not experience the satisfaction of saying, "I told you so."

Maturity is the ability to make a decision and stand by it. The immature spend their lives exploring endless possibilities; then they do nothing.

Maturity means dependability, keeping one's word, coming through in a crisis. The immature are masters of the alibi. They are the confused and the disorganized. Their lives are a maze of broken promises, former friends, unfinished business, and good intentions that somehow never materialize.

Maturity is the art of living in peace with that which we cannot change, the courage to change that which should be changed -- and the wisdom to know the difference.

Care for..

Care for the One, who shares with you….
Share with the One, who knows you…
Know the One, who misses you…

NEVER LIE TO YOUR MOM...

A Mom comes to visit her son Kumar for dinner.....who lives with a girl roommate Sunita. During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty Kumar's roommate was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious.

Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Kumar and his roommate than met the eye.


Reading his mom's thoughts, Kumar volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Sunita and I are just roommates". About a week later, Sunita came. She said to Kumar ,saying, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver plate. I don't believe she took it, do you?"
Kumar said ,"Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure."


So he sat down and wrote :

Dear Mother:

I'm not saying that you 'did' take the silver plate from my house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take the silver plate .. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner.

Love, Kumar..



Several days later, Kumar received an email from his Mother

Dear Son:

I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Sunita, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with Sunita. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the silver plate by now under the pillow...

Love,

Mom.



Lesson of the day:


Don't Lie to Your Mother........

Karan johar ka kamal..

Boy : Janeman! Tute huye dil se pyaar karogi ya dil tutne tak pyaar karogi.

Girl : Haramkhor! Tuti huye chappal se pitega ya chappal tutne tak pitega.

~~~~~~~~~

Karan johar ka kamal

Kuch kuch hota hai : Luv ur friends
K3g : Luv ur parents
Kal ho na ho : Luv ur neighbours
Kabhi alvida na kehna : Luv other's wife.

Mil giya Oye mil gaya,
Oye oye mil giya,
Oho mil giya,
Ballay Ballay…
Mil he giya,
Aaj to mil he giya,
Yeh sms phadne wala ek aur bewqoof mil gaya!!!

Ek bacha paida hotay hi nurse say bola: Mobile hai?

Nurse: Kya karo gay?

Bacha: GOD ko miss call deni hay kye khariat say pohanch gaya hoon

Dard( Shayari)..

Khule pade hain meri zindagi ke sare warq
Na jane kab koi aandhi uda ke le jaaye

Kisi ka dard kahan tak main apne pass rakhoon
Ye jis ka hai woh nishani bata ke le jaye.........!!!

Tonic for the Mind - 34

Sincere devotion and love for the Guru and Lord invokes the grace to achieve and lead a fulfilling life. Love directed towards the greater, higher and nobler, brings out the best in a person. Expand in your love to feel equally for everyone's suffering; be joyous in everybody's joy. Love is natural in each one of us. It does not have to be created, it has to be just discovered and once it is discovered, it is so great and vast, that it embraces the entire humanity.

- Swami Chinmayananda

Tonic for the Mind - 33

Vedanta roars declaring its living experiences- ''Seek Oh Man, what you want where it can be had. Infinite peace and eternal joy is thy very essential nature. Adjust your inward life and tickle out of it the music of perfection which you are trying to knock out of the rocky earth".

- Swami Chinmayananda
