Peace Standing, Seeking your support

In view of the recent violence and the negativity prevailing in hyderabad, some of us are planning to conduct a peace standing on the tank bund road on 20th March, 2011. We are not for or against any region, religion or political party. We are just a bunch of happy go living people of hyderabad who love our city and who love our country. Our aim is to remind people that we are all Indians and we are all civilized human beings. We want to remind people the pledge that we long forgot - India is my country, All Indians are my brothers and sisters.   In order to spread this sort of "Live, let live" and "Share the joy" philosophy, we are planning to join hands and spread some positive thoughts and energy. It is going to be a silent event; We are planning to wear white or our tricolors and light candles, give away white roses and flags in an attempt to spread something good in the midst of all that is happening lately.   In order to show your support or to join us or to give us any more ideas, you can contact Sai Manohar Rudramaina at rudramaina@yahoo.com  Please spread the message. Thank you   I love Hyderabad, I love India

Put the Glass Down

PUT THE GLASS DOWN

 

Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it. He
held it up for all to
see & asked the students "How much do you think this glass weighs?"
'50gms!'..... '100gms!' .....'125gms' ...the students answered.
"I really don't know unless I weigh it," said the professor, "but, my
question is: What would
happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?"
'Nothing' the students said.
'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the
professor asked.
'Your arm would begin to ache' said one of the student
"You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?"
"Your arm could go numb; you might have severe muscle stress & paralysis &
have to go to
hospital for sure!" Ventured another student & all the students laughed.
"Very good. But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?"
asked the professor.
'No' was the answer. "Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress?"
The students
were puzzled. "What should I do now to come out of pain?" asked professor
again.
"Put the glass down!" said one of the students
"Exactly!" said the professor.
Life's problems are something like this.
Hold it for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK.
Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache.
Hold it even longer & they begin to paralyze you. You will not be able to
do anything...
It's important to think of the challenges or problems in your life,

But EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to 'PUT THEM DOWN' at the end of every day
before you go
to sleep...
So, when you leave office today, remember to
' PUT THE GLASS DOWN! '

Beggar-Gud One

Once a man was waiting for a taxi.

A beggar came along and asked him for some money. The man ignored him. But being a professional, the beggar kept on pestering him. The man became irritated when he realized that the beggar would not leave him alone unless he parts with some money.

Suddenly an idea struck him.He told the beggar, "I do not have money, but if you tell me what you want to do with the money, I will certainly help you." "I would have bought a cup of tea", replied the beggar.

The man said, "Sorry man. I can offer you a cigarette instead of tea". He then took a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and offered one to the beggar.

The beggar told, "I don't smoke as it is injurious to health."

The man smiled and took a bottle of whisky from his pocket and told the beggar, "Here, take this bottle and enjoy the stuff. It is really good".

The beggar refused by saying, "Alcohol muddles the brain and damages the liver".

The man smiled again. He told the beggar, "I am going to the race course.Come with me and I will arrange for some tickets and we will place bets. If we win, you take the whole amount and leave me alone".

As before, the beggar politely refused the latest offer by saying, "Sorry sir, I can't come with you as betting on horses is a bad habit."

Suddenly the man felt relieved and asked the beggar to come to his home with him. Finally, the beggar's face lit up in anticipation of receiving at least something from the man. But he still had his doubts and asked the man, "Why do you want me to go to your house with you".

The man replied, "My wife always wanted to see how a man with no bad habits looks like ...
