சினம் வேண்டாம்!

சினம் கொள்ளுதல் என்பதை, எவர்
தினம் செய்தாலும், தீயதே! தனது

மனம் கெடுவது மட்டுமின்றி, பிறர்
மனம் கெடவும், வழி வகுக்கும் அது!

சினம் அதிகமானால், நினைப்பதும்
சுடும் சொற்களாகத் தோன்றிவிடும்.

கொதிக்கும் சொற்களே, வெளி வரும்;
கொதிக்கும் குருதியை, உடல் பெறும்!

சுற்றத்தின் குற்றம் காண வைக்கும்;
உற்றாரே இல்லாதும் செய்துவிடும்.

சேர்ந்தாரைக் கொல்லியாக இருக்கும்;
சோர்ந்து மனம் போகவும் வைக்கும்.

அருகில் வரவே அஞ்சவும் வைக்கும்;
எளிதில் போகாது, மிஞ்சியே நிற்கும்!

நல்ல இன்பம் இழந்து, சுற்றத்தையும்
அல்லல் படுத்தும், சினம் வேண்டாம்!

STONE
TWO FRIENDS WERE WALKING

THROUGH THE DESERT .


DURING SOME POINT OF THE


JOURNEY, THEY HAD AN


ARGUMENT; AND ONE FRIEND


SLAPPED THE OTHER ONE


IN THE FACE



THE ONE WHO GOT SLAPPED


WAS HURT, BUT WITHOUT


SAYING ANYTHING,


WROTE IN THE SAND ,



TODAY MY BEST FRIEND

SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE .



THEY KEPT ON WALKING,


UNTIL THEY FOUND AN OASIS,


WHERE THEY DECIDED


TO TAKE A BATH .



THE ONE WHO HAD BEEN


SLAPPED GOT STUCK IN THE


MIRE AND STARTED DROWNING,


BUT THE FRIEND SAVED HIM.



AFTER HE RECOVERED FROM


THE NEAR DROWNING,


HE WROTE


ON A STONE:


'TODAY MY BEST FRIEND

SAVED MY LIFE'



THE FRIEND WHO HAD SLAPPED


AND SAVED HIS BEST FRIEND


ASKED HIM, 'AFTER I HURT YOU,


YOU WROTE IN THE SAND AND NOW,


YOU WRITE ON A STONE, WHY?'



THE FRIEND REPLIED


'WHEN SOMEONE HURTS US


WE SHOULD WRITE IT DOWN


IN SAND, WHERE WINDS OF


FORGIVENESS CAN ERASE IT AWAY.



BUT, WHEN SOMEONE DOES SOMETHING GOOD FOR US,


WE MUST ENGRAVE IT IN STONE


WHERE NO WIND


CAN EVER ERASE IT'



LEARN TO WRITE


YOUR HURTS IN


THE SAND AND TO


CARVE YOUR


BENEFITS IN STONE.



THEY SAY IT TAKES A


MINUTE TO FIND A SPECIAL


PERSON,



AN HOUR TO


APPRECIATE THEM,





A DAY


TO LOVE THEM,





BUT THEN ,


AN ENTIRE LIFE

TO FORGET THEM.


SEND THIS TO

THE PEOPLE YOU'LL NEVER

FORGET.


TAKE THE TIME TO LIVE!


DO NOT VALUE THE THINGS

YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE, BUT VALUE

WHO YOU HAVE KNOWN IN YOUR LIFE!

தீயவை மறப்போம்..

வாழ்வில் பெற்ற இன்ப நிமிடங்களை, நினைவில் கொண்டு,

வாழ்வில் பெற்ற துன்பங்களை, மறந்திடப் பழகிக் கொண்டு,

ஆற்ற வேண்டிய கடமைகளைச் சுமையாக எண்ணாது, எவர்
ஆற்ற முனைகிறாரோ, அவரே வெற்றிப் படிகளில் ஏறுவார்!

மற்றவர் நம்மிடம் அதிகமாக எதிர்பார்த்தால், நாம் திறமை
பெற்றவர் என்பதை நம்புவதாக எண்ணுதல், மனநலம் தரும்!

இறைவன் அளித்த நன்மைகளை மட்டும் கூட்டி வைப்போம்;
குறைகள் மறந்து, நிறைகள் நினைத்து, நிம்மதி பெறுவோம்!

Married life is very frustrating.
In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens.
In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens.
In the third year, they both speak and the neighbors listen.


Cheers,

Marriage has different phases like Yugas..you have Sathya Yuga,Treta Yuga,Dwapara Yuga and Kali Yuga but once you enter it you are stuck for a Kalpa!!!!
 

The married life will be successful if we follow this:

குற்றம் பாரா நற்குணம்...

குற்றம் இல்லாதவரின் நட்பை, நாம்
சற்றும் தயங்காது ஏற்று மகிழ்வோம்.

குறை இல்லாதவர் உலகில் இல்லை!

இதை மறவாது இருத்தல் வேண்டும்.

வெள்ளைத் தாளில் கரு மை பட்டால்,

உள்ளம் நினைக்கும், கருமை மட்டும்!

ஒளிரும் நிலவில் உள்ள அந்தக் கறை,

தெளிவாய்க் கண்கள் பார்க்கும் குறை!

நல்ல குணம் நிறைந்தவர், ஒரு சிறிய

அல்ல குணம் கொண்டாலும், அதுவே

பெரிய குறையாகத் தெரியுமே; இதை

அறிய வேண்டும், எல்லோரும் நன்கு!

குற்றம் பார்க்கின் சுற்றம் இல்லையே!

குற்றம் பாரா நற்குணம் பெற்று, நமது

சுற்றம் பெருக்கி, அன்பை வளர்த்தால்,

சுற்றும், காலச் சக்கரம், மிக இனிதாய்!

“ Cherish every happy moment, you don't know when will it happened again "
 

While walking in a toy store
The day before today,
I over heard a Crayon Box
With many things to say.
"I don't like red!" said Yellow.
And Green said, "Nor do I!"
And no one here likes Orange,
But no one knows quite why.
"We are a box of crayons
that really doesn't get along,"
Said Blue to all the others.
"Something here is wrong!"
Well, I bought that box of crayons
And took it home with me
And laid out all the crayons
So the crayons could all see
They watched me as I colored
With Red and Blue and Green
And Black and White and Orange
And every color in between
They watched as Green became the grass
And Blue became the sky.

The Yellow sun was shining bright
On White clouds drifting by.
Colors changing as they touched,
Becoming something new.

They watched me as I colored.
They watched till I was through.
And when I'd finally finished,
I began to walk away.

And as I did the Crayon box
Had something more to say........
"I do like Red! " said the Yellow
And Green said, "So do I !"
And Blue you are terrific!
"So high up in the sky."
"We are a Box of Crayons
Each of us unique,
But when we get together
The picture is complete"

Some of you may have read this already, someone must have shared this in an email to you.. but I felt compelled, just because of the positive energy this story brought..


Breakfast at McDonald's

This is a good story and is true, please read it all the way through until the end! (After the story, there are some very interesting facts!):


I am a mother of three (ages 14, 12, 3) and have recently completed my college degree. The last class I had to take was Sociology. The teacher was absolutely inspiring with the qualities that I wish every human being had been graced with. Her last project of the term was called, 'Smile.'

The class was asked to go out and smile at three people and document their reactions. I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway. So, I thought this would be a piece of cake, Literally.

Soon after we were assigned the project, my husband, youngest son, and I went out to McDonald's one crisp March morning. It was just our way of sharing special playtime with our son.. We were standing in line, waiting to be served, when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away, and then
Even my husband did. I did not move an inch.... An overwhelming feeling of panic welled up inside of me as I turned to see why they had moved. As I turned around I smelled a horrible 'dirty body' smell, and there standing behind me were two poor homeless men.


As I looked down at the short gentleman, close to me, he was 'smiling'. His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God's Light as he searched for acceptance. He said, 'Good day' as he counted the few coins he had been clutching.

The second man fumbled with his hands as he stood behind his friend. I realized the second man was mentally challenged and the blue-eyed gentleman was his salvation.

I held my tears as I stood there with them.

The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted.

He said, 'Coffee is all Miss' because that was all they could afford. (If they wanted to sit in the restaurant and warm up, they had to buy something. He just wanted to be warm).

Then I really felt it - the compulsion was so great I almost reached out and embraced the little man with the blue eyes. That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give me two more breakfast meals on a separate tray. I then walked around the corner to the table that the men had chosen as a resting spot. I put the tray on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed gentleman's cold hand..

He looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, 'Thank you.'

I leaned over, began to pat his hand and said, 'I did not do this for you. God is here working through me to give you hope.'

I started to cry as I walked away to join my husband and son. When I sat down my husband smiled at me and said, 'That is why God gave you to me, Honey, to give me hope..' We held hands for a moment and at that time, we knew that only because of the Grace that we had been given were we able to give.

We are not church goers, but we are believers.

That day showed me the pure Light of God's sweet love. I returned to college, on the last evening of class, with this story in hand.. I turned in 'my project' and the instructor read it.

Then she looked up at me and said, 'Can I share this?' I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class. She began to read and that is when I knew that we as human beings and being part of God share this need to heal people and to be healed. In my own way I had touched the people at McDonald's, my son,the instructor, and every soul that shared the classroom on the last night I spent as a college student.

I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn:

UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE.

Much love and compassion is sent to each and every person who may read this and learn how to
LOVE PEOPLE AND USE THINGS -


NOT LOVE THINGS AND USE PEOPLE.

There is an Angel sent to watch over you.

In order for her to work, you must pass this on to the people you want watched over.

An Angel wrote:

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart To handle yourself, use your head..

To handle others, use your heart.

God Gives every bird it's food, but He does not throw it into its nest.
 
How I wish that human beings were at least half as

sensible as the colorful crayons! The World needs

every color including the black and gray -

whether we like them or can't stand them!!

Positive thinking is a mental attitude that anticipates happiness, success and favorable outcomes in every situation or action you do. The thoughts get registered in your subconscious mind and you start taking action to create favorable change.
