I'am Thankful

I found this beautiful poem as a forwarded e-mail juz read on to see how life can be without complaining

I AM THANKFUL:

FOR THE WIFE

WHO SAYS IT'S HOT DOGS TONIGHT,

BECAUSE SHE IS HOME WITH ME,

AND NOT OUT WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

FOR THE HUSBAND

WHO IS ON THE SOFA

BEING A COUCH POTATO,

BECAUSE HE IS HOME WITH ME

AND NOT OUT AT THE BARS.

FOR THE TEENAGER

WHO IS COMPLAINING ABOUT DOING DISHES

BECAUSE IT MEANS

SHE IS AT HOME,NOT ON THE STREETS.

FOR THE TAXES I PAY

BECAUSE IT MEANS

I AM EMPLOYED .

FOR THE MESS TO CLEAN AFTER A PARTY

BECAUSE IT MEANS

I HAVE

BEEN SURROUNDED BY FRIENDS.

FOR THE CLOTHES THAT FIT A LITTLE TOO SNUG

BECAUSE IT MEANS

I HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT.

FOR MY SHADOW THAT WATCHES ME WORK

BECAUSE IT MEANS

I AM OUT IN THE SUNSHINE

FOR A LAWN THAT NEEDS MOWING,

WINDOWS THAT NEED CLEANING,

AND GUTTERS THAT NEED FIXING

BECAUSE IT MEANS I

HAVE A HOME

FOR ALL THE COMPLAINING
BECAUSE IT MEANS

WE HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH

FOR THE PARKING SPOT I FIND

AT THE FAR END OF THE PARKING LOT

BECAUSE IT MEANS

I AM CAPABLE OF WALKING

AND I HAVE BEEN BLESSED

WITH TRANSPORTATION

FOR MY HUGE HEATING BILL

BECAUSE IT MEANS

I AM WARM.

FOR THE LADY BEHIND ME IN CHURCH

WHO SINGS OFF KEY BECAUSE IT MEANS

I CAN HEAR.

FOR THE PILE OF

LAUNDRY AND IRONING BECAUSE IT MEANS

I HAVE CLOTHES TO WEAR.

FOR WEARINESS AND ACHING MUSCLES

AT THE END OF THE DAY

BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE BEEN

CAPABLE OF WORKING HARD.

FOR THE ALARM THAT GOES OFF

IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS

BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM ALIVE.

You are able to read this because it means that you are fortunate of being "Educated" and "Literate"

God's Clinic

I went to lord’s clinic to have my routine Check-Up & I Confirmed that I was Ill:

When Jesus took my blood pressure, He saw I was low in tenderness,

When he read my temperature, the thermometer registered 40 Deg., of anxiety,

He ran an electrocardiogram and found that I needed several “Love Bypasses” since my arteries were blocked with loneliness & could not provide for an empty heart,

I went to orthopedics, because I could not walk by my brother’s side & I could not hug my friends, since I had fractured myself when tripping with envy.

He also found I was shortsighted, since I could not see beyond the shortcomings of my brothers and sisters,

When I complained about deafness, the diagnostic was that I had stopped listening to Jesus’ voice talking to me on a daily basis.

For all that, Jesus gave me a free consultation thanks to his mercifulness, so my pledge is to once I leave his clinic, only take the natural remedies he prescribed through his words of truth:-

Every morning take a full glass of gratitude,
When getting to work, take one spoon of peace,
Every hour take one pill of patience, one cup of brotherhood & one glass of humility
When getting to home take one dose of LOVE,
When getting to bed, Take 2 caplets of clear conscience.

He further said,

Don’t give in into sadness or desperation for what you are going through today;
God knows how you feel……
God Knows exactly & with perfection what is being allowed to happen to you in your life at this precise moment.
God’s purpose for you is simply perfect. He wants to show you things that only you can understand by living what you are living & by being in the place

you are now.

This was an article that i found as a powerpoint presentation each word is so true so all those who view my blog please do visit the god's clinic one day, and believe me you'll get cured of all the ailments you have physically and mentally and most importantly you will be receiving a free treament for your spirituality.

Believe in the POWER called "GOD"

The Twenty20 World Cup.......

The day this news about the Twenty20 Cup caught my eye….i was looking forward to an exciting round of game from our Indian Team…..wasn’t sure of whether they would win the cup but was sure of one thing….that they’ll learn a lot from this, as it is we have had a very few and a new exposure to a game of this pattern and going directly to face the World Cup Challenge, but I was confident on one thing for sure…..most of the boys selected for this tournament are not ‘A’ grade players so they’ll have a worth to prove of themselves, Mahendra Singh Dhoni Aka MAHI is a boy(They turned these boyz 2 men after we won) full of determination which he never shows so maybe 90% of the indians dispirited his selection as a Captian for the Twenty20…..

But I vouched even then that he will do it…..as I wasn’t of the opinion of those who discouraged this act……yes it was a very evident gamble for the BCCI but a good one….coz it’s easy for the opposition to win over you if they know how you play and how you don’t….but to our advantage we had a team of players who hadn’t faced the international frontier battles more often and all our strengths and weakness were a secret which would take time for someone to study. The duration of 14 Days was too less to do all this.

All that every team knew was that it has to win……and our boys din’t know that….they were hungry for experience and hungry to play with other teams of which some of them were their idols, game after game, strategies changed and so did our equation with success we were getting close but we still weren’t the favourites to win the cup.

Criticisms were equally vocal along with the praises but our boys turned both deaf ears and their focus was only on what they wanted to achieve that was a short term planning i.e. win each match and this stratergy worked…..their Skipper showed them this new magic of attaching passion to their own success…..i had been watching each match so closely that even when MAHI was wicket keeping and he needed to instruct anyone to move positions he never had to go to them but just wave out some actions out of his hands and it was understood by the team…..such was the co-ordinations and such were the leadership skills……

It’s said and believed that experience is your best teacher but unless you have all the first time lessons from where will you gain experience…….it was a good healthy game and such nail bitting games that there are no nails left to chew……….but I have all my finger nails intact as I had some kind of an inner confidence on MAHI and his team that this time the cup lies in our nation and no where else……because our youth has a lot of unexplored potential and they have unleashed only 10% of it in the Twenty20 WorldCup……..indeed the WORLD IS OURS and WE ARE THE WORLD.

Trouble arrives in measures,
and we stack it up real high,
until we're convinced,
we have no reason to try.
If you feel defeated,
you're absolutely wrong,
for if you follow your dream,
you could never lose for long.
Ignore the minor set-backs
that pile up and trouble you,
or you will build a mountain,
out of the stones hurled at you.
The future holds great promise,
your destiny unknown,
but God is always helping,
and you're never alone.
Soar bravely toward your goal.
Let nothing darken the way.
You can change your tomorrow,
if you seek your dream today

This poem.....written by someone else caught my eyes while surfing poems on the internet....i look out for a lot of poems and stuff that inspires me and something that talks bout me and the way i want to be......or rather i am.....i'm a firm believer of seeking my dream....our Past President Abdul Kalam said this " dream is not what you see in sleep......but it's that which doesn't let you sleep"......
I'am a day dreamer and have lots of dreams.....and dreams...and dreams.....big dreams and small dreams.......but one thing i'm sure about is seeking my dream.

Each morning i wake up with a new dream to turn it to new reality.....

I guess that's a pretty confusing stuff i've written but mind you i'm not at all confused with the confusion i've created......that's how a writer should be confused enough to create confusions but yet himself not confused
