A cute SMILE that never fades,
A smooth TOUCH that never shakes,
And a strong RELATIONSHIP that never breaks...

Ultimate Measure

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort,
But where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

R 'Open' & 'Close' Opposites?

Why do we say that 'close' and 'open' are opposites of each other,
Though we know that the person to whom we are very 'close',
Is the one we are very 'open' with...

Time, Time, Time...

Time has a very interesting dynamic and dimension.
As we look forward, time seems as if it is going to last forever.
As we look back, time passes very quickly.
When we manage time prudently and productively,
time becomes very valuable to us and produces many benefits.
It takes practice, patience, and perseverance to develop the skills to manage time wisely,
but the rewards are well worth the effort.
The reality of time is that time is a precious resource that moves quickly.

Money

I met money and said -
"You are just a piece of paper..."
Money smiled and said -
"Of Course I am just a piece of paper,
But I haven't seen a dustbin made for me as yet..."

Forever Friends

Friendship is not about;
Whom you have known the longest,
Who came first,
Or who cares the best;
Its all about who came and never left...

Complete and Finished

People say there is no difference between the words Complete and Finish.
But I feel there is a difference,
Because when you love the right one you are Complete,
And when you love the wrong one you are Finished...

People and Things

People are made to be Loved,
And Things are made to be Used.
But the problem in this world is-
People are being Used,
And Things are being Loved...

Because what you have now,
Is one of the many things you once desired for...

Planning Dreams

If you don't have a plan, random circumstances will make one for you.
And you probably won't like it much.
Decide what you would like and go for it.
Success is no more complicated than that.
The energy and time you spend can either bring you towards your dreams,
or it can keep you in the service of someone else's dream.
Choose to follow your own dreams.

Blogosphere Turns 10

Do you dig link love, hate blogasms, tag memes and can’t stand to ignore a ping? If you don’t know what on earth this is all about, it’s probably time to take your first tentative steps into the blogosphere. As blogs turn 10 this year (exact date unknown) - the tribe of those who put fingers to the keyboard and their thoughts to the “homepages of the 21st century” is growing everyday. Blog tracker Technorati counted 93.8 million bloggers worldwide in July 2007 as compared to 100,000 in March 2003. In India, blogging is the most popular internet activity after emailing and the number of bloggers runs into lakhs though no exact count is available.
The fact that blogs are changing the way we date, work, teach and live cannot be denied. A majority of blogs are online diaries- for the kind of stuff not good enough for print, but too good to waste on after-dinner conversation or, worse, mere thinking. Sometimes, the thoughts run out and sometimes, the time. But amid the army of irregulars, the diehard blogophiles can’t stop posting.
The complete strangers get involved in the matter. It’s the comments that give blogs a life of their own-pouring in from smart, dumb, creative, sadistic strangers who show up on the blog to be rude, flirt, veer off topic or simply to connect. The latter’s probably the reason why everyone from Indian CEOs to Bollywood celebs is blogging.
Be it Bollywood or business, sex or spirituality, there is little that Indian bloggers don’t tackle. But how did a trend that was slow to pick up initially in India become a phenomenon that has embraced so many? The opinion’s almost unanimous on this one: a government directive that led to the blocking of blogs in July last year proved to be the turning point for the Indian blogosphere. “Till then, awareness was very low. The ban sparked such a furor that many people who didn’t have a clue what a blog is found out about it. Some people like Amit Aggarwal, a techie gave up an MNC job in 2004 to become India’s first professional blogger.
Though readership of most Indian blogs isn’t very high, some of them have extremely good content. But readership is what cyber success is all about and that’s where most blogs flounder. Making money through blogs isn’t easy. It takes vision, creativity, commitment and a lot of hard work-more than you would give to a job.
A blog gives you exposure, helps you build a reputation and is a great networking tool.
But success doesn’t come easy. A lot of thought and research goes into it. From getting tips from other bloggers, optimizing key words so that the blog comes up in search engines to finding thought-provoking topics of discussion that increase “the pop” (number of hits). It’s such a fabulous way to communicate…like you are talking to a friend yet you have thousands of people listening in.
Blogging’s become the 21st century soliloquy – heartfelt, candid, self-absorbed. It’s meant for no one in particular yet the reader hopes the world will read it. And so what if you are writing about what you had for breakfast. If you have a voice, there’s a blog for you.

D's of Life

There are 3 D's in life:
Desire, Determination and Dedication.
You will need all the 3 to reach new heights,
But it all starts with the 4th D... Dreams.

Robbery

Hands up,
This is a robbery.
Pretty girls move left,
Handsome guys move right,
Monkeys to the centre.
U there, Yes U!
Ya 'U'...
Don't pretend to read SMS,
Go to the centre!

Real Prayer

Real prayer is not telling God what we want.
It is putting ourselves at His disposal so that He can tell us what He wants.
Prayer is not trying to get God to change His will.
It is trying to find out what His will is,
to align ourselves or realign ourselves with His purpose for the world and for us.
That's why it is so important for us to listen as well as talk when we pray.

Lover's Password

U love someone,
U marry someone else.
The one u marry becomes ur Wife or Husband,
And the one u loved becomes the password of ur mail id.

Friendship Forever

If two hearts are meant to be friends,
No matter how long it takes,
How far they go,
How tough it seems,
God will bring them together to share friendship forever.

नेता

आज कल के नेता,
बनते हैं अभिनेता।
पहनते हैं सूट-बूट,
देते हैं भाषण ख़ूब।।

इन्हें चुनते हैं हम लोग,
हमारे साथ ही करते ये खोट।
पहले तो ले लेते माल,
फिर करते लोगों के काम।।

कहते हैं गरीबी हटायेंगे,
अपने घरों को भरते जायेंगे।
करते हैं खूब घोटाले,
लोग देते हैं इनको ताने।।

पकड़े जाते जब पुलिस के द्वारा,
फिर कोर्ट जाते होने को नौ-दो-ग्यारह।।

स्वतंत्र भारत का यही एक नारा,
भ्रष्ट नेताओं को सुधारना होगा,
देश को उन्नति के पथ पर लाना होगा।।

Celebrating 10 good years of Blogging

Someone, somewhere started the first blog. There is consensus in the blogosphere that 1997 marked the birth of what has now become an online revolution.

In April that year, New Yorker Dave Winer kicked off a new kind of website. Though Winer's first entries on Scripting News were just a list of websites he had visited that day, it was the forerunner to the modern-day blog. On his site, Winer says Scripting News "bootstrapped the blogging revolution" and that it is the "longest currently running web log on the internet."

But the credit for actually using the term "web log" goes to Jorn Barger, a programmer. In December 1997, he created RobotWisdom.com which featured links to articles about politics, culture, books and technology that he found interesting. And like the present-day avatar of blogs, Barger even appended his own comments to some items.

Sometime in 1999, Peter Merholz of Peterme.com declared that he has decided "to pronounce the word 'weblog' as 'wee-blog'. Or 'blog' for short." It's also the year in which the word 'blog' first appears in print, acording to the Merriam-Webmaster dictionary.

Today, there are as many different kinds of blogs as there are human impulses - sex blogs, dating blogs, political blogs, technology blogs, music blogs...the list goes on. But 70 to 80% are still a variation on the personal diary. Number of blogs close to 100 million, according to Technorati. Every second, 14 blogs are added.

Truth of Life

By the time you realize what your parents said was right,
You will have a kid who will think that You are wrong!!!

Time - The Greatest Gift

The greatest gift you can give to someone is your time,
Because when you give someone your time,
You are giving them a portion of your life that you will never get back.

Happy Friendship Day

Friend is one who tolerates your worst mood,
Manages to smile on your idiotic jokes,
Tries to understand your craziest dream,
And helps to deal with your friends,
Always and forever.
Cheers to our friendship.
HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY

Never believe what the lines on your hand predict about your future,
Because people who donot have hands also have a future...

Friendship

When you have had a huge fight,
Deciding once and for all,'That's it',
But then you decide to put aside your egos,
Hold hands and again say,
"I need you"...

Friendship

The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand,
Nor the joy of companionship.
Its the inspiration that comes with the deep feeling that someone else believes in you!!!

True Relation

True relationship doesn't always come when the talk between two people is frequent,
It comes when the silence between them is comfortable.

Thought

"When everything is coming your way,
You are in the wrong lane." :-)

Thought

At least three times every day take a moment and ask yourself what is really important. Have the wisdom and the courage to build your life around your
answer.

Yesterday, Today n Tomorrow

Today is the day.
Doing our best, living each day to the fullest is the art of living.
Yesterday is gone,
and we don't know whether we will be here tomorrow.
If we do a good job of living today, and if tomorrow comes for us,
then the chances are we will do a good job when it arrives --
so why worry about it?

Thought

Laughing faces doesn't mean tht there is absence of sorrow!
But, it means tht they have the ability to deal wid them!

Think over it

Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savoured.

Deep Mines

Santa and Banta decide to apply for jobs at a mine that had opened nearby. After sitting in the waiting room for a while, Banta gets called in for his interview.

The boss asks Banta if he had worked underground mines before? Banta says that he had.

The boss asks him how deep under ground he worked?

Banta says, "Oh, about 8 to 10 feet."

The boss says, "Mines are a lot deeper than that, get out of here - you're no miner!"

On his way out, Banta tells Santa to tell the boss that he worked real deep underground so he could get the job. Santa gets called in.

The boss asks Santa if he had worked underground mines before?

Santa says, "Oh sure."

The boss asks how deep underground he worked.

Santa says, "I used to work in a mine 20,000 feet underground."

The boss says, "20,000 feet, Wow! That is incredible!, "What kind of lights did you use in a mine so deep underground?"

Santa says, "Oh, I didn't need a light, I worked on the day shift!"

Life

Life s a book,

Alwys b happy,

Stop redundancy

The Committee for the Reduction of Redundancy and the Antiproliferation of Repetition has decided not to meet until they have their first meeting and thus will not be meeting until the first time.

Their Pre-meeting Statement wanted to make this clear before they had their first meeting, so that it would not be more confusing.

So their first meeting will actually be their first meeting and they will not have a meeting before the first meeting.

This should avoid having people show up for their first meeting before it is held, since to do so would be confusing to those who did so and this is what they want to avoid by reducing the confusion and lessening the repetition.
