Take Good Care of Your Parents

2008年9月1日

A note from a friend to say that This is worth reading…

A simple man tells how his booking an air ticket for his father, his first flight, brought emotions
and made him realize that how much we all take for granted when it comes to our parents.

My parents left for our native place on Thursday and we went to the airport to see them off. In fact,
my father had never traveled by air before, so I just took this opportunity to make him experience the
same. In spite of being asked to book tickets by train, I got them tickets on Lufthansa.

The moment I handed over the tickets to him, he was surprised to see that I had booked them by air.
The excitement was very apparent on his face, waiting for the time of travel. Just like a school boy, he was
preparing himself on that day and we all went to the airport, right from using the trolley for his
luggage, the baggage check-in and asking for window seat and waiting restlessly for the security check-in to happen.

He was thoroughly enjoying himself and I, too, was overcome with joy watching him experience all these
things.

As they were about to go in for the security check-in, he walked up to me with tears in his eyes and thanked me. He became very emotional and it was not as if I had done something great but the fact that
this meant a great deal to him.

When he said thanks, I told him there was no need to thank me.

But later, thinking about the entire incident, I looked back at my life.

As a child how many dreams our parents have made come true. Without understanding the financial
situation, we ask for football, dresses, toys, outings, etc. Irrespective of their affordability, they have satisfied to all our needs. Did we ever think about the sacrifices they had to make to accommodate many of our wishes?

Did we ever say thanks for all that they have done for us?

Same way, today when it comes to our children, we always think that we should put them in a good school. Regardless of the amount of donation, we will ensure that we will have to give the child the best, theme parks, toys, etc.. But we tend to forget that our parents have sacrificed a lot for our sake to see
us happy, so it is our responsibility to ensure that their dreams are realized and what they failed to see
when they were young, it is our responsibility to ensure that they experience all those and their life
is complete.

Many times, when my parents had asked me some questions, I have actually answered back without
patience. When my daughter asks me something, I have been very polite in answering. Now I realize how they would have felt at those moments.

Let us realize that old age is a second childhood and just as we take care of our children, the same
attention and same care need to be given to our parents and elders.

Rather than my dad saying thank you to me, I would want to say sorry for making him wait so long for this small dream. I do realize how much he has sacrificed for my sake and I will do my best to give the best
possible attention to all their wishes. Just because they are old does not mean that they will have to give up everything and keep sacrificing for their grandchildren also. They have wishes, too.

Take care of your parents .

Pls pass on this mail to every child who loves parents and want to love them more & parents who are
just starting to raise their children…. ..

Why God Allow Pain

2008年8月30日

A Friend of Mine send me this message some times ago, it may answer your doubt.


This is one of the best explanations of
Why God allows pain and suffering that I have seen…

A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut & his beard trimmed.
As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation.
They talked about so many things and various subjects.
When they eventually touched on the subject of God,
the barber said: ’I don’t believe that God exists.’

‘Why do you say that?’ asked the customer.
‘Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that
God doesn’t exist.
Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people?
Would there be abandoned children?

If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain.
I can’t imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things.’
The customer thought for a moment, but didn’t respond because he didn’t want to start an argument.
The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop.

Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and unkempt. The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber:
‘You know what? Barbers do not exist.’
‘How can you say that?’ asked the surprised barber.
‘I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you!’
‘No!’ the customer exclaimed. ‘Barbers don’t exist because
if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside.’

‘Ah, but barbers DO exist!
That’s what happens when people do not come to me.’
‘Exactly!’ affirmed the customer.
‘That’s the point! God, too, DOES exist!
That’s what happens when people do not go to Him
and don’t look to Him for help.
That’s why there’s so much pain and suffering in the world.’

If you think God exists, send this to other people—
If you think God does not exist, ignore it!

BE BLESSED & BE A BLESSING TO OTHERS !

Women behind men

WOMEN BEHIND MEN ( Humor )

Women behind men

A reporter who did a story on gender roles in Kabul, Afghanistan, several years before the Afghan conflict noted then that women customarily walked five paces behind their husbands.

She recently returned to Kabul and observed that women still walk behind their husbands.

She approached one of the Afghan women and asked:

“Why do you now seem happy with the old custom that you once tried so desperately to change?”

The woman looked her in the eyes and without hesitation,

said: ” Landmines ! “

“The Husband will get it first”

Moral of the story : Behind every man is a damn smart woman !
