Best thing in the world that the coming generations will miss

This picture, lately I have fallen in love. Beautifully portrays how we have been becoming slaves of TECHNOLOGY.

Clicking the picture, eh, look at how she is living the moment.

Three feet from GOLD

One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken by temporary defeat. Every person is guilty of this mistake at one time or another.

An uncle of R. U. Darby was caught by the "gold fever" in the gold-rush days, and went west to DIG AND GROW RICH. He had never heard that more gold has been mined from the brains of men than has ever been taken from the earth. He staked a claim and went to work with pick and shovel. The going was hard, but his lust for gold was definite.

After weeks of labor, he was rewarded by the discovery of the shining ore. He needed machinery to bring the ore to the surface. Quietly, he covered up the mine, retraced his footsteps to his home in Williamsburg, Maryland, told his relatives and a few neighbors of the "strike." They got together money for the needed machinery, had it shipped. The uncle and Darby went back to work the mine.

The first car of ore was mined, and shipped to a smelter. The returns proved they had one of the richest mines in Colorado! A few more cars of that ore would clear the debts. Then would come the big killing in profits.

The most precious...

Imagine there is a bank account that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day. Every evening the bank deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every cent, of course?

Each of us has such a bank. It's name is TIME. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to a good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no over draft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day. If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours. There is no drawing against "tomorrow."

One that cares

The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just read the e-mail straight through, and you'll get the point.

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.

2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.

3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America.

4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.

5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winner for best actor and actress.

6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.

How did you do?

The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Acheivements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:

1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.

2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.

3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.

4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.

5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.

Easier?

The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care.

It's madness

It's complete madness

To hate all roses because you got scratched by one thorn.

To give up all your dreams, because one did not come true.

To give up on your efforts, because one of them failed.

To condemn all your friends, because one of them betrayed.

Not to believe in love, because someone was unfaithful.

Remember that

Another chance may come up

A new friend

A new love

A new life

Never give up on anything.

What is life?

God has a master plan. He has given us life as a gift. To live it is a boon but to understand it is a curse because one spends his whole life trying to understand life. But when he finally does, all that he can stare upon is death. This is because life is so vast. It means different in different stages.

At times it is a challenge to overcome all the struggles, like it is for many of the Nepalese people who are under the poverty level. At other times, it becomes a mystery, like for many who try to unfold this mystery. Sometimes, it is a tragedy that has to be faced. It might be joy, it might be sorrow. Life gives us a line of rights but a novel of duties, to perform. Live is game and sometimes even a gamble. Sometimes, it feels like a dream, but we must realize it as a reality.

Begin today with a smile

Don't recall the sadness of the past

As it may bring sorrows and depression.

Begin your present with a good expression

And hurry up, let a smile come fast.

Life as a glorious gift

Life, according to many people is a friendship with various ups and downs. It is the rumble of enormous positive and negative thoughts. It is the glamorous gift presented to us by the almighty God. Our life glistens when there is happiness and enjoyment all around and it suddenly disappears like gust of wind when there is a single gleam of sorrow and disappointment.

Life can turn into a dismal cave of thoughts by a single untruthful action and life can prosper with various good and glanderous actions. According to the body's language, life may be a time interval of 100 or 90 years, whereas according to soul's language, life is a everlasting status of living. Many people express that love is life. It is true because without love, lining a life is impossible. Similarly, a soul without love ends up with devil ideas.

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,

When the funds are low and the debts are high

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,

When care is pressing you down a bit,

Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,

As every one of us sometimes learns,

And many a failure turns about

When he might have won had he stuck it out;

Don't give up though the pace seems slow--

You may succeed with another blow,

Success is failure turned inside out--

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,

And you never can tell how close you are,

It may be near when it seems so far;

So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--

It's when things seem worst that you must not quit. 

Eleven Hints for Life

1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return. But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.

2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.

3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

It is madness

To hate all roses, because you got scratched with one thorn.

To give up on your dreams, because one didn't come true.

To lose faith in prayers, because one was not answered.

To give up your efforts, because one of them failed.

To condemn all your friends, because one betrayed you.

Not to believe in love because someone was unfaithful or didn't love you back.

To throw away all your chances to be happy,
cause you didn't succeeded on the first attempt.

I hope that as you go on your way, you don't give in to madness.

Remembering always

Another chance may come up, Another friend,

A new love, A renewed strength,

Be persistent

Look for happiness, look for happiness in everyday

The sure path of failure is to give up!
It is often through failure that future success comes,

Keep Trying, Be Optimistic.

Avoid the Seven Deadly Sins

They can kill your relationships and your career.

1. Pride, because it takes you down a one-way street.
2. Covetousness, because it makes you unhappy, with what you have.
3. Lust, because few people are able to escape the consequences.
4. Anger, because it is the greatest waste of energy.
5. Gluttony, because it can destroy you competitive edge, making you lose to the fellow who keeps his appetites in check.
6. Envy, because it reveals your weaknesses and makes you powerless.
7. Sloth, because the lazy, careless or disorganized person is easy prey for competitors.

The seven deadly sins are thousands of years old, but they are as treacherous today as ever.

Have you ever wondered?

Have you ever wondered, how bees take nectar and make it into honey,
How trees are made into paper, and paper into money.
How the Sun is so far away, yet we feel the heat,
How the tongue is what allows us to talk.
How a little bird knows how to fly when it leaves the nest,
How our bodies are so active, and suddenly we need to rest.
How we lie down at night, and put ourselves to sleep,
How dreams are allowed in our minds to creep.
How our emotions are stirred and we can cry,
How we suddenly become happy and the tears are dried.
How we can seen to be 'oh! so fine',
And instantly we can be half out of our mind.
How one day we have a friend, and one day we don't,
How sometimes people help us, and sometimes they won't.
How by hands of a clock moving, time goes by.
How fingernails seem to grow from under the skin,
How peace is said to come from within,
How we plant grain, and harvest corn,
How some babies are hatched and others are born.
If we have ever wondered and asked why,
The answer lies alone with the MAKER in the sky.
Just wondering.....Have you ever wondered?
