An old lady who lived in the village who had never been in a car before was returning home from the market carrying a big heavy basket on her head
when a rich man riding his car passed by.
Kindly, he offered to drive her to her home.
She thanked him & got into the car with her basket.
On the way, the man glanced at the lady in the mirror,still holding her basket over her head.
Astonished, he asked her to lay the basket down in the car & rest.The old lady replied,
"Oh, my son, your car is carrying me; this is enough,
I should not burden it carrying my basket too!"
What an innocently funny response!
~~~~~We sometimes do the same with God.
Everyday, God carries us during the day.
Still,
we insist on carrying our heavy baskets of worries & fear of the future.
~~~~~We are carried by Almighty hands,watched over by sleepless eyes & God plans our future.
So,Friends...
*****Let us then relax &
lay down everything in God's hands.
but still we need to work hard.. and its ur luck
Enjoy all...!!!
Best of Luck ..... !!!

What is the meaning of life?
“Taking pain,” said the nail.
“Keeping cool,” said the ice.
“Driving hard,” said the hammer.
“Being up-to-date,” said the calendar.
“Being sharp,” said the knife.
“Making light around you,” said the fire.
“Sticking to it,” said the glue.
“Being bright,” said the lamp.
“Being on time,” said the clock.
“Saving a drop,” said the faucet.
And best of all, “learning from it,” said the mistake.
Don’t be afraid to take chances even if it might get you hurt.
Just be strong and take it because you might miss that single chance
that would change your life and make you really happy.
The night is designed to end the worries and fears of the day,
it signifies to leave it all to God and prepare for another day to come.

Dear Lord,
Every single evening
As I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head.
God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm and safe from harm
For they're so close to me.
And God, there is one more thing
I wish that you could do,
Hope you don't mind me asking
Please bless my computer too..
Now I know that it's unusual
To Bless a motherboard,
But listen just a second
While I explain it to you, Lord.
You see that little metal box
Holds more than odds and ends,
Inside those small compartments
Rest so many of my friends..
I know so much about them
By the kindness that they give,
And this little scrap of metal
Takes me in to where they live.
By faith is how I know them
Much the same as you,
We share in what life brings us
And from that our friendships grew.
Please take an extra minute
From your duties up above,
To bless those in my address book
That's filled with so much love.
Wherever else this prayer may reach
To each and every friend,
Bless each e-mail inbox
And each person who hits send.
When you update your Heavenly list
On your own CD-ROM,
Bless everyone who says this prayer

Missing someone is a gift,
for you have someone,
to think about,
someone to care about,
whose smile matters the most for you,
and you can do anything to put it back,
whose tears seem like an ocean,
whose pain seems to hurt you most,
whose touch can put you in heaven,
without whom you cant even imagine to live,
whose heart is one with yours,
and eyes are the arched gateway to that sacred place,
sitting with them,
silence speaks for hours,
and one with whom you are never lonely,
even though they are far apart,
but being missed by someone is a bliss,
for they do the above things for you,
which you do for others.

Whose Shoes Are These?
Funny how you’d ask a kid today what he/she’d like to be when they grow up and they’d say, ‘I want to be like my daddy or like my mummy.'
You ask the same question to teenagers and you’d hear them saying they want to be like R.Kelly or Obama; like Dora Akunyili or Beyonce.
These people are great in their own rights, yes they are; read the papers, but that’s not enough reason to spend your time living out a life just trying to be an image of another person.
This same question is not just limited to kids and teens, ask adults, business men/women and they’d also tell you they want to be like Bill Gates or Ellen Sirleaf Johnson.
We all have people as role models, who we want to be like.
Folks, we live in a world that is populated with more than a billion people. If you doubt me, ask the Chinese. Different people from different backgrounds, some are born with silver spoons and others with no spoon at all. We live in a world of challenges and solutions, obstacles and stepping-stones, depending on where you’re looking.
Most of us spend our time and energy looking for shoes to fit into, leaving ours behind, trying to live life and act the way our role models do. It’s good but that’s not a determinant factor that we’d be like them, because we’d be surprised that we’ll come-up short of our expectations if we spend such energy chasing the wind.
Success is 2% gift and 98% hard work, so it goes to reason that we all have this 2% in our genetic make-up but we need to put in work, carving out the spoons that we missed at birth.
Now, I’m not trying to say it’s bad to want to be like somebody else, all I’m trying to say is that’s not the main reason why you came to earth. You didn’t stumble here from space; God placed you here for a reason.
Now to share a personal thought: I’d say God created you, giving you an empty book to write your life in. So while we are here writing our life story, I wouldn’t want your book to be filled with how so-so and so is but rather how ‘I is’.
For as you go around trying out people’s shoes, who’s going to try yours? Even if you don’t make it big in life, console yourself with the thought that at least your shoes are worth trying out.
I just want to put dew into people's lives. When you go about filling people's shoes, ask yourself, "Who's filling mine?"

God: Hello! Did you call me?
Me: Called you? No... who is this?
God: This is GOD. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat.
Me: I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in the midst of something.
God: What are you busy at? Ants are busy too.
Me: Don't know. But I can't find free time. Life has become hectic. It's rush hour all the time.
God: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.
Me: I understand. But I still can't figure out. By the way, I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on instant messaging chat.
God: Well, I wanted to resolve your fight for time, by giving you some clarity. In this net era, I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with.
Me: Tell me, why has life become complicated now?
God: Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated.
Me: Why are we then constantly unhappy?
God: Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You are worrying because you are analyzing. Worrying has become your habit. That's why you are not happy.
Me: But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?
God: Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional.
Me: But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty.
God: Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.
Me: If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?
God: Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don't suffer. With that experience, their life become better, not bitter.
Me: You mean to say such experience is useful?
God: Yes. In every term, experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.
Me: But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can't we be free from problems?
God: Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessons (to) Enhance Mental Strength. Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems.
Me: Frankly, in the midst of so many problems, we don't know where we are heading.
God: If you look outside, you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight.
Me: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction. What should I do?
God: Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock.
Me: In tough times, how do you stay motivated?
God: Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.
Me: What surprises you about people?
God: When they suffer, they ask, "Why me?" When they prosper, they never ask, "Why me?" Everyone wishes to have truth on their side, but few want to be on the side of the truth.
Me: Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here? I can't get the answer.
God: Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation.
Me: How can I get the best out of life?
God: Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.
Me: One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.
God: There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is NO.
Me: Thank you for this wonderful chat.
God: Well. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don't believe your doubts and doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful, if you know how to live. "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that took our breath away!"

John was born with no arms.
But he never questioned,"Why do I have no arms?"
The question he asked was, "What can I do with my feet?"
Having watched John eat with chopsticks, I'd say, "Almost anything!"
When tragedy strikes,or when we lose everything, or when a lover walks out on us, the question we usually ask is
"Why?"
"Why me?"
"Why now?"
"Why did he/s leave me for a loser?"
Asking "Why?" questions can send us in circles.
Often, there is no answer to "Why?"
Or it doesn't matter why!
Effective people ask "What?" questions ....
"What do I learn from this?"
"What am I going to do about it?"
When the situation is desperate, they ask,
"What can I do, just in the next 24 hours, to make things better?"
*****The happiest people don't bother about whether life is "fair".
They just make the most of what they have.
So,let us also don't complain & just move forward.
Enjoy all...!!!.

I woke up early today, excited over all I get to do before the clock strikes midnight. I have responsibilities to fulfill today. I am important.
My job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have.
Today I can complain because the weather is rainy or I can be thankful that the grass is getting watered for free.
Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or I can be glad that my finances encourage me to plan my purchases wisely and guide me away from waste.
Today I can grumble about my health or I can rejoice that I am alive.
Today I can lament over all that my parents didn't give me when I was growing up or I can feel grateful that they allowed me to be born.
Today I can cry because roses have thorns or I can celebrate that thorns have roses.
Today I can mourn my lack of friends or I can excitedly embark upon a quest to discover new relationships.
Today I can whine because I have to go to work or I can shout for joy because I have a job to do.
Today I can complain because I have to go to school or eagerly open my mind and fill it with rich new tidbits of knowledge.
Today I can murmur dejectedly because I have to do housework or I can feel honored because the Lord has provided shelter for my mind, body and soul.
Today stretches ahead of me, waiting to be shaped. And here I am, the sculptor who gets to do the shaping.
What today will be like is up to me. I get to choose what kind of day I will have!

Don't worry if you have problems! Which is easy to say until you are in the midst of a really big one, I know. But the only people I am aware of who don't have troubles are gathered in little neighborhoods. Most communities have at least one. We call them cemeteries.
If you're breathing, you have difficulties. It's the way of life. And believe it or not, most of your problems may actually be good for you! Let me explain.
Maybe you have seen the Great Barrier Reef, stretching some 1,800 miles from New Guinea to Australia. Tour guides regularly take visitors to view the reef. On one tour, the guide was asked an interesting question. I notice that the lagoon side of the reef looks pale and lifeless, while the ocean side is vibrant and colorful, a traveler observed. Why is this
The guide gave an interesting answer The coral around the lagoon side is in still water, with no challenge for its survival. It dies early. The coral on the ocean side is constantly being tested by wind, waves, storms - surges of power. It has to fight for survival every day of its life. As it is challenged and tested it changes and adapts. It grows healthy. It grows strong. And it reproduces. Then he added this telling note That's the way it is with every living organism.
That's how it is with people. Challenged and tested, we come alive! Like coral pounded by the sea, we grow. Physical demands can cause us to grow stronger. Mental and emotional stress can produce tough-mindedness and resiliency. Spiritual testing can produce strength of character and faithfulness.
So, you have problems - no problem! Just tell yourself, There I grow again!
