I Love this poem..Easy to read but it's a challenge to practice ! !

People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.

If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest
men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.

People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.

People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.

People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway

Veda Mantra ?

"Vetthi ithi Veddah" ; Knowing knowledge is Veda", That is to say , man can know from Vedas, the code of right activitiy and the body of right knowledge. The Vedas teach man his duties from birth to death. They describe his rights and duties , obligations and responsibilities in all stages of life- as a student , householder , recluse and monk. In order to make plain the Vedic dicta and axioms and enable all to understand the meaning and purpose of the do's and dont's, the Vedangas , Puranas and Epic texts appeared in course of time."

- Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba

Picture Of The Decade (Must Read & View)

A picture began circulating in November. It should be 'The Picture of the Year,' or perhaps, 'Picture of the Decade.' It won't be. In fact ,unless you obtained a copy of the US paper which published it , you probably would never have seen it.

The picture is that of a 21-week-old unborn baby named Samuel Alexander Armas, who is being operated on by surgeon named Joseph Bruner.

The baby was diagnosed with spina bifida and would not survive if removed from his mother's womb. Little Samuel's mother, Julie Armas, is an obstetrics nurse in Atlanta She knew of Dr. Bruner's remarkable surgical procedure. Practicing at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville , he performs these special operations while the baby is still in the womb.

During the procedure, the doctor removes the uterus via C-section and makes a small incision to operate on the baby. As Dr.Bruner completed the surgery on Samuel, the little guy reached his tiny, but fully developed hand through the incision and firmly grasped the surgeon's finger. Dr.Bruner was reported as saying that when his finger was grasped, it was the most emotional moment of his life, and that for an instant during the procedure he was just frozen, totally immobile.

The photograph captures this amazing event with perfect clarity. The editors titled the picture, 'Hand of Hope.' The text explaining the picture begins, 'The tiny hand of 21-week- old fetus Samuel Alexander Armas emerges from the mother's uterus to grasp the finger of Dr. Joseph Bruner as if thanking the doctor for the gift of life.'

Little Samuel's mother said they 'wept for days' when they saw the picture. Sh e said, 'The photo reminds us pregnancy isn't about disability or an illness, it's about a little person.' Samuel was born in perfect health, the operation 100 percent successful.

Now see the actual picture , and how awesome and completely incredible it is... The world needs to see this one !

The Mayonnaise Jar (Facts of Life)

When things in your life seem , almost too much to handle ,

When 24 Hours in a day is not enough , Remember the

mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some

items in front of him.When the class began, wordlessly,

He picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and

proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students , if the jar was full. They agreed

that it was. The professor then picked up a box of pebbles

and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The

pebbles rolled into the open Areas between the golf balls.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They

agreed it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand

and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up

everything else.He asked once more if the jar was full. The

students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under

the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively

filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
'Now,' said the professor, as the laughter subsided, 'I want you

to recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things - family, children, health,

Friends, and Favorite passions .Things that if everything else was

lost and only they remained ,Your life would still be full..

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, house ,

and car.The sand is everything else -The small stuff. 'If you put

the sand into the jar first,' He continued ,'there is no room for the

pebbles or the golf balls.

The same goes for life.

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,

You will never have room for the things that are important to you.

So...

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Play With your children.

Take time to get medical checkups.

Take your partner out to dinner.

There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.

'Take care of the golf balls first --

The things that really matter.

Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.'

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee

represented.

The professor smiled..

'I'm glad you asked'.

It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,

there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.'
