HOW TO STAY YOUNG
1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay 'them'
2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.
3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. 'An idle mind is the devil's workshop.' And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.
4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.
7. Surround yourself with what you love , whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
9. Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county; to a foreign country but NOT to where the guilt is.
10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER :
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
And if you don't send this to at least 8 people - who cares? But do share this with someone. We all need to live life to its fullest each day!!
Worry about nothing, pray about everything!!!

How Poor Are We !
How Poor Are We
One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.
On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, 'How was the
trip?'
'It was great, Dad.'
'Did you see how poor people live?' the father asked.
'Oh yeah,' said the son.
'So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?' asked the father
The son answered:
'I saw that we have one dog and they had four.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.
We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night.
Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.
We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.
We buy our food, but they grow theirs.
We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them.'
The boy's father was speechless.
Then his son added, 'Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are.'
Isn't perspective a wonderful thing?
Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of worrying about what we don't have.
Appreciate every single thing you have, especially your friends!
'Life is too short and friends are too few.'

Kya Therei Baap Ka Road Hai! ... Interesting story!!
"Kya therei baap ka road hai?" - An apocryphal story involving Russi Mody. (Ex MD Tata Steel, Jamshedpur)
I would like to believe that the following story actually happened. It is so typically Russi.
It is said that once Russi Mody was on an official trip to (the then) Bombay. Even though it was a Sunday morning, Russi had to visit
Bombay House, the Corporate Head Quarters of the Tata Group. Russi was driving a Mercedes himself as it was a Sunday and there was very little traffic and also it was the chauffeur's day off. Russi was wearing simple shorts and a T shirt.
Knowing that he would take just a few minutes to finish his work in Bombay ouse and that it was a non-working day in the business district with very low traffic, he decided to take liberties to park his Merc in an other-wise no parking zone. A conscientious traffic cop
noticed all this and he immediately rushed to Russi who had started sauntering towards the Bombay House entrance.
In a gruff voice the Constable asked Russi, "Kyun bhidu, baap kaa sadak samajh kay rakha hai kya?"
Russi very non-chalantly replied: "Haan kuchh aisa hi hai. Aapko English padhna aata hai kya?"
Then he gently held the Cop's arm and walked him to the kerbside and pointed to the metal signage of the road. He asked the cop "Kya Likha Hai?"
The cop said "Sir Homi Mody Street". A mischievously smiling Russi discloses"Woh Mera Baap Tha".
Russi was allowed to leave his car parked in the "No Parking" Zone that Sunday morning.!!

A True Love Story - Please do not blame me!
A certain rich businessman had a beautiful daughter, who fell in love with a guy who was a cleaner.
When the girl's father came to know about their love, he did not like it at all, and so began to protest about it.
Now it happened that the two lovers decided to leave their homes for a happy future. The girl's father started searching for the two lovers but could not find them.
At last, he accepted their love and asked them to come back home in a local newspaper. Her father said "If you both come back I will allow you to marry the guy you love, I accept that you loved each other t truly."
So in this way, their love won and they returned home. The couple went t o town to shop for the wedding dress. He was dressed in white shirt that day. While he was crossing the road to the other side to get some drinks for his wife, a car came and hit him and he died on the spot. The girl lost her senses. It was only after sometimes that she recovered from her shock. The funeral and cremation was the very next day because he had died horribly.
Two nights later, the girl's mother had a dream in which she saw an old lady. The old lady asked her mother to wash the blood stains of the guy from her daughter's dress as soon as possible. But her mother ignored the dream.
The next night her father had the same dream, he also ignored it. Then when the girl had the same dream the next night, she woke up in fear and told her mother about the dream. Her mother asked her to wash the clothes which have blood stains immediately.
she washed t he stains but some remained. Next night she again had the same dream she again washed the stains but some still remained.
Next night she again had the same dream and this time the old lady gave her a last warning to wash the blood stain, or else something terrible will happen. This time the girl tried her best to wash the stains, and the clothes nearly tore, but some stains still remained.
She was very tired.
In the late evening the same day while she was alone at home, someone knocked the door. When she opened the door she saw the same old lady of her dream standing at her door. She got very scared and fainted.
The old lady woke her up... and gave her a blue object, which shocked the girl. She asked "What is this...?"
The old lady replied...
"Try Surf Excel Washing powder... just a dab and it will remove all stubborn stains!!!" .
I know how you all are feeling now... I have been through this too. But don't look at me like that . I'm also hunting for the idiot who mailed this to me!.......
Now your turn to find...

Equations! - This is the best I have read in a LONG time
Equation 1
Human = eat + sleep + work + enjoy
Donkey = eat + sleep
Therefore:
Human = Donkey + Work + enjoy
Therefore:
Human-enjoy = Donkey + Work
In other words,
A Human that doesn't know how to enjoy = Donkey that works.
===========================
Equation 2
Man = eat + sleep + earn money
Donkey = eat + sleep
Therefore:
Man = Donkey + earn money
Therefore:
Man-earn money = Donkey
In other words
Man who doesn't earn money = Donkey
===========================
Equation 3
Woman= eat + sleep + spend
Donkey = eat + sleep
Therefore:
Woman = Donkey + spend
Woman - spend = Donkey
In other words,
Woman who doesn't spend = Donkey
===========================
To Conclude:
From Equation 2 and Equation 3
Man who doesn't earn money = Woman who doesn't spend
So Man earns money not to let woman become a donkey!
And a woman spends not to let the man become a donkey!
So, We have:
Man + Woman = Donkey + earn money + Donkey + Spend money
Therefore from postulates 1 and 2, we can conclude
Man + Woman = 2 Donkeys that live happily together!
===========================
"Never search ur happiness in others, which will make you feel alone, Rather search it in urself, U will feel happy, Even if u r left alone..."
(Without malice to anyone/ any gender)
Human = eat + sleep + work + enjoy
Donkey = eat + sleep
Therefore:
Human = Donkey + Work + enjoy
Therefore:
Human-enjoy = Donkey + Work
In other words,
A Human that doesn't know how to enjoy = Donkey that works.
===========================
Equation 2
Man = eat + sleep + earn money
Donkey = eat + sleep
Therefore:
Man = Donkey + earn money
Therefore:
Man-earn money = Donkey
In other words
Man who doesn't earn money = Donkey
===========================
Equation 3
Woman= eat + sleep + spend
Donkey = eat + sleep
Therefore:
Woman = Donkey + spend
Woman - spend = Donkey
In other words,
Woman who doesn't spend = Donkey
===========================
To Conclude:
From Equation 2 and Equation 3
Man who doesn't earn money = Woman who doesn't spend
So Man earns money not to let woman become a donkey!
And a woman spends not to let the man become a donkey!
So, We have:
Man + Woman = Donkey + earn money + Donkey + Spend money
Therefore from postulates 1 and 2, we can conclude
Man + Woman = 2 Donkeys that live happily together!
===========================
"Never search ur happiness in others, which will make you feel alone, Rather search it in urself, U will feel happy, Even if u r left alone..."

Sardar Joke
An American, Japanese, and a Sardar were sitting in the sauna naked. Suddenly there was a beeping sound. The American pressed his forearm and the beeping stopped. The others looked at him questioningly. " That's my pager," he said, "I have a microchip under the skin of my arm.
A few minutes later a phone rang. The Japanese lifted his palm to his ear. When he finished he explained, "That's my mobile phone. I have a microchip in my hand.
The Sardar felt low-tech and inferior. He didn't know what to do to be as impressive as the American & the Japanese. He decided to take a break in the toilet. When he returned, he didn't realize that there was a piece of toilet paper got stuck and hanging from his backside.
The others raised their eyebrows and said, "Wow! What's that?" Instead of being embarrassed, inspiration struck his mind. The Sardar explained, "I'm getting a
FAX"... The other two fainted

Guru Mahima : Kanchi Paramacharyal solves the mystery
One day a group of people came to visit Maha Periyaval on some urgent consultation.
The story goes as follows:
The group of people was the trustees of a Devi temple located in some interior village of Tamil Nadu.
The kumbhabhishekam for this temple was carried out about a week earlier by a Devi Upasakar and the function went on very well.
The temple has an inner main deity of Devi and also three outer deities fitted on the outer walls of the sanctum sanctorum. The trustees noticed water trickling out from the eyes of one of the deities located on the slots of the outer praharam . They were wonder stuck and at the same time worried and frightened about this situation.
They could not understand how and why the deity was crying.
The trustees presented their side of this story to Maha Periyaval and expressed their inability to understand this peculiar phenomenon.
Maha Periyaval closed his eyes for some time and asked them whether this deity was Durga Devi. They said....." Yes, Periyaval ! "
Then he asked whether the deity’s head was pressed against the top slab of the slot.
The trustees immediately telephoned to the temple priest. After consultation and checking, they informed, "Yes, Periyaval.. what you are saying is true."
The contractor made the slots on the outer wall of the sanctum sanctorum forthe 3 deities to be fitted inside these slots whilst the deities were made separately by the sculptor. When the deities were received just few days before the kumbhabhishekam, the contractor found out that this particular Durga deity was not fitting inside the slot.
So he just pressed the deity in that slot some how with pressure whereby the head was getting pressed against the top slab of the slot.
Maha Periyaval informed them that is the reason for this phenomenon.
The trustees asked whether they could remove the deity and ask the contractor to increase the height of the slot to comfortably fit in the deity.
Maha Periyaval informed that once the kumbhabhishekam was done, one is not supposed to remove the deity this way before the completion of 12 years i.e. when next kumbabishekam would fall due.
Maha Periyaval informed that the only solution he would recommend is to chisel out a portion of the top slab to form a curvature (like an umbrella) above the deity.This way the pressure on the deity’s head will get relieved.
They took Maha Periyaval blessings and left immediately for their native place.As per His instructions, chiselled out slowly the top slab so that the Durga Devi's head was free from this pressure.
The next day the water trickling from the deity’s eyes stopped and this was promptly communicated to Maha Periyaval.
The story goes as follows:
The group of people was the trustees of a Devi temple located in some interior village of Tamil Nadu.
The kumbhabhishekam for this temple was carried out about a week earlier by a Devi Upasakar and the function went on very well.
The temple has an inner main deity of Devi and also three outer deities fitted on the outer walls of the sanctum sanctorum. The trustees noticed water trickling out from the eyes of one of the deities located on the slots of the outer praharam . They were wonder stuck and at the same time worried and frightened about this situation.
They could not understand how and why the deity was crying.
The trustees presented their side of this story to Maha Periyaval and expressed their inability to understand this peculiar phenomenon.
Maha Periyaval closed his eyes for some time and asked them whether this deity was Durga Devi. They said....." Yes, Periyaval ! "
Then he asked whether the deity’s head was pressed against the top slab of the slot.
The trustees immediately telephoned to the temple priest. After consultation and checking, they informed, "Yes, Periyaval.. what you are saying is true."
The contractor made the slots on the outer wall of the sanctum sanctorum forthe 3 deities to be fitted inside these slots whilst the deities were made separately by the sculptor. When the deities were received just few days before the kumbhabhishekam, the contractor found out that this particular Durga deity was not fitting inside the slot.
So he just pressed the deity in that slot some how with pressure whereby the head was getting pressed against the top slab of the slot.
Maha Periyaval informed them that is the reason for this phenomenon.
The trustees asked whether they could remove the deity and ask the contractor to increase the height of the slot to comfortably fit in the deity.
Maha Periyaval informed that once the kumbhabhishekam was done, one is not supposed to remove the deity this way before the completion of 12 years i.e. when next kumbabishekam would fall due.

They took Maha Periyaval blessings and left immediately for their native place.As per His instructions, chiselled out slowly the top slab so that the Durga Devi's head was free from this pressure.
The next day the water trickling from the deity’s eyes stopped and this was promptly communicated to Maha Periyaval.

The President of India DR. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam 's Speech in Hyderabad
Why is the media here so negative?
Why are we in India so embarrassed to recognize our own strengths, our achievements? We are such a great nation. We have so many amazing success stories but we refuse to acknowledge them. Why? We are the first in milk production.
We are number one in Remote sensing satellites.
We are the second largest producer of wheat.
We are the second largest producer of rice.
Look at Dr. Sudarshan , he has transferred the tribal village into a self-sustaining, self-driving unit. There are millions of such achievements but our media is only obsessed in the bad news and failures and disasters.
I was in Tel Aviv once and I was reading the Israeli newspaper... It was the day after a lot of attacks and bombardments and deaths had taken place. The Hamas had struck. But the front page of the newspaper had the picture of a Jewish gentleman who in five years had transformed his desert into an orchid and a granary. It was this inspiring picture that everyone woke up to. The gory details of killings, bombardments, deaths, were inside in the newspaper, buried among other news.
In India we only read about death, sickness, terrorism, crime. Why are we so NEGATIVE? Another question: Why are we, as a nation so obsessed with foreign things? We want foreign T. Vs, we want foreign shirts. We want foreign technology.
Why this obsession with everything imported. Do we not realize that self-respect comes with self-reliance? I was in Hyderabad giving this lecture,
when a 14 year old girl asked me for my autograph. I asked her what her goal in life is. She replied: I want to live in a developed India . For her, you and I will have to build this developed India . You must proclaim. India is not an under-developed nation; it is a highly developed nation. Do you have 10 minutes? Allow me to come back with a vengeance.
Got 10 minutes for your country? If yes, then read; otherwise, choice is yours.
YOU say that our government is inefficient.YOU say that our laws are too old. YOU say that the municipality does not pick up the garbage. YOU say that the phones don't work, the railways are a joke,The airline is the worst in the world, mails never reach their destination.
YOU say that our country has been fed to the dogs and is the absolute pits.
YOU say, say and say. What do YOU do about it?
Take a person on his way to Singapore . Give him a name - YOURS... Give him a face - YOURS. YOU walk out of the airport and you are at your International best.
In Singapore you don't throw cigarette butts on the roads or eat in the stores. YOU are as proud of their Underground links as they are. You pay $5 (approx. Rs. 60) to drive through Orchard Road (equivalent of Mahim Causeway or Pedder Road) between 5 PM and 8 PM. YOU come back to the parking lot to punch your parking ticket if you have over stayed in a restaurant or a shopping mall irrespective of your status identity... In Singapore you don't say anything, DO YOU? YOU wouldn't dare to eat in public during Ramadan, in Dubai . YOU would not dare to go out without your head covered in Jeddah . YOU would not dare to buy an employee of the telephone exchange in London at 10 pounds ( Rs.650) a month to, 'see to it that my STD and ISD calls are billed to someone else.'YOU would not dare to speed beyond 55 mph (88 km/h) in Washington and then tell the traffic cop,
'Jaanta hai main kaun hoon (Do you know who I am?). I am so and so's son.
Take your two bucks and get lost...' YOU wouldn't chuck an empty coconut shell anywhere other than the garbage pail on the beaches in Australia and New Zealand .
Why don't YOU spit Paan on the streets of Tokyo ? Why don't YOU use examination jockeys or buy fake certificates in Boston ??? We are still talking of the same YOU. YOU who can respect and conform to a foreign system in other countries but cannot in your own.
You who will throw papers and cigarettes on the road the moment you touch Indian ground. If you can be an involved and appreciative citizen in an alien country, why cannot you be the same here in India ?
Once in an interview, the famous Ex-municipal commissioner of Bombay , Mr. Tinaikar , had a point to make. 'Rich people's dogs are walked on the streets to leave their affluent droppings all over the place,' he said 'And then the same people turn around to criticize and blame the authorities for inefficiency and dirty pavements. What do they expect the officers to do? Go down with a broom every time their dog feels the pressure in his bowels?
In America every dog owner has to clean up after his pet has done the job. Same in Japan .
Will the Indian citizen do that here?' He's right.
We go to the polls to choose a government and after that forfeit all responsibility.
We sit back wanting to be pampered and expect the government to do everything for us whilst our contribution is totally negative. We expect the government to clean up but we are not going to stop chucking garbage all over the place nor are we going to stop to pick a up a stray piece of paper and throw it in the bin. We expect the railways to provide clean bathrooms but we are not going to learn the proper use of bathrooms...
We want Indian Airlines and Air India to provide the best of food andtoiletries but we are not going to stop pilfering at the least pportunity.
This applies even to the staff who is known not to pass on the service to the public. When it comes to burning social issues like those related to women, dowry, girl child! and others, we make loud drawing room protestations and continue to do the reverse at home. Our excuse? 'It's the whole system which has to change, how will it matter if I alone forego my sons' rights to a dowry.' So who's going to change the system? What does a system consist of ? Very conveniently for us it consists of our neighbours, other households, other cities, other communities and the government. But definitely not me and YOU. When it comes to us actually making a positive contribution to the system we lock ourselves along with our families into a safe cocoon and look into the distance at countries far away and wait for a Mr.Clean to come along & work miracles for us with a majestic sweep of his hand or we leave the country and run away.
Like lazy cowards hounded by our fears we run to America to bask in their glory and praise their system. When New York becomes insecure we run to England . When England experiences unemployment, we take the next flight out to the Gulf. When the Gulf is war struck, we demand to be rescued and brought home by the Indian government. Everybody is out to abuse and rape the country. Nobody thinks of feeding the system. Our conscience is mortgaged to money.
Dear Indians, The article is highly thought inductive, calls for a great deal of introspection and pricks one's conscience too.... I am echoing J. F. Kennedy 's words to his fellow Americans to relate to Indians.........
'ASK WHAT WE CAN DO FOR INDIAAND DO WHAT HAS TO BE DONE TO MAKE INDIA WHAT AMERICA AND OTHER WESTERN COUNTRIES ARE TODAY'
Lets do what India needs from us.
Forward this as mail to each Indian for a change instead of sending Jokes or junk mails (or send this link to others to get the idea percolated down the line).
Thank you,
Dr. Abdul Kalaam

How to face Problems
Problems may come but u must take it as a "ROYAL CHALLENGE"
Otherwise people will call u an "OLD MONK"
And stick a "BLACK LABEL" on u.
But u must fight like "NAPOLEAN",
Move around like "JHONNY WALKER",
Think like a "DIRECTOR SPECIAL"
... and do not forget the cute little "BLACK DOG"
Then your life will be like an "IMPERIAL BLUE"
And if you do all of the above, it will add value for your "SIGNATURE"
Shiva at Kempfort TEMPLE Banglore
Ten things God won't ask:
1 ...God won't ask what kind of car you drove;
He'll ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.
2...God won't ask the square footage of your house,
He'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.
3...God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet,
He'll ask how many you helped to clothe.
4...God won't ask what your highest salary was,
He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it.
5...God won't ask what your job title was,
He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability.
6...God won't ask how many friends you had,
He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend.
7... God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived,
He'll ask how you treated your neighbors.
8...God won't ask about the color of your skin,
He'll ask about the content of your character.
9... God won't ask why it took you so long to seek Salvation,
He'll lovingly take you to your mansion in heaven, and not to the gates of Hell.
10...God won't ask how many people you forwarded this to,
He'll ask if you were ashamed to pass it on to your friends.
Read Carefully
Happy moments, praise God..
Difficult moments, seek God.
Quiet moments, worship God.
Painful moments, trust God.
Every moment, thank God.

DON'T MESS WITH OLD PEOPLE
HOW TO CALL THE POLICE -WHENYOU'RE OLD - AND DON'T MOVE FASTANYMORE.
George Phillips, an elderly man, from Meridian,Mississippi, wasgoing up to bed, when his wife told him that he'dleft the light on inthe garden shed, which she could see from the bedroomwindow. Georgeopened the back door to go turn off the light, butsaw that there werepeople in the shed stealing things.
He phoned the police, who asked "Is someone inyour house?" He said "No," but some people are breakinginto my garden shed andstealing from me.
Then the police dispatcher said "All patrols arebusy. You should lockyour doors and an officer will be along when one isavailable." George said, "Okay." He hung up the phone and counted to 30.
Then he phoned the police again. "Hello, I just called you a few seconds agobecause there were peoplestealing things from my shed. Well, you don'thave to worry about themnow because I just shot them." and he hungup.
Within five minutes, six Police Cars, a SWAT Team, aHelicopter, twoFire Trucks, a Paramedic, and an Ambulance showed upat the Phillips'residence, and caught the burglarsred-handed.
One of the Policemen said to George, "I thoughtyou said that you'd shot them!"
George said, "I thought you said there wasnobody available!"
(True Story)
Abraham Lincoln, John F Kennedy
Ask a history teacher 2 explain this----- if he can
Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.
Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.
Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.
Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head
Now it gets really weird. .....
Lincoln 's secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln . Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.
Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln , was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.
John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln , was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.
Both assassins were known by their three names. Both names are composed of fifteen letters.
Now hang on to your seat.
Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.' Kennedy was shot in a car called ' Lincoln ' made by 'Ford.' Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse.
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater. Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.
And here's the kicker...
A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe , Maryland A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe. Creepy huh? Send this to as many people as you can, cause: Hey, this is one history lesson most people probably will not mind reading!
