BYB Sunday : Good Wishes



Every living being has the same basic wish - to be happy and to avoid suffering. Even newborn babies, animals, and insects have this wish. It has been our main wish since beginningless time and it is with us all the time, even during our sleep. We spend our whole life working hard to fulfil this wish.

Since this world evolved, human beings have spent much time and energy improving external conditions in their search for happiness and a solution to their many problems. What has been the result? Instead of their wishes being fulfilled, human suffering has continued to increase while the experience of happiness and peace is decreasing. This clearly shows that we need to find a true method for gaining pure happiness and freedom from misery.

When things go wrong in our life and we encounter difficult situations we tend to regard the situation itself as the problem, but in reality whatever problems we experience come from the side of the mind. If we were to respond to difficult situations with a positive or peaceful mind they would not be problems for us; indeed we may even come to regard them as challenges or opportunities for growth and development. Problems arise only if we respond to difficulties with a negative state of mind. Therefore, if we want to be free from problems we must learn to control our mind.

Who is obedient??

In our society we respect our parents and it is our duty to serve and help them, especially when they become older.
But some times, I feel, only serving our parents is not enough to pay off the debt that we owe to them.

They expect more...


In this materialistic world, parents have also changed.

They like that child better who can give them a lot of comforts that money can buy even if he is not serving them a single minute.
And, in comparison, the childr who is near and serving them, not just physicaly but mentally too isnt liked that much if he cant provide the material comforts.

It looks like that in today's world all relations are changed, even parents.

Is success so important that it has changed all; even relationships??
(and success here is in terms of money)

Why do parents only like their sucessful child???

Why is this world able to change parents who are God for the children?

Is god also changed and likes only sucessful people??

Sin of Innocent people

Some times I feel that being innocent is a sin.
Innocent persons are those who dont think much about what is going in another's mind. They simply do what ever they like and they dont want to hurt any one.
They dont know how selfish this world is and how this world is always ready to exploit them? Knowing all, they dont want to change their style.
They believe in the almighty God who is watching every thing,and believe that he will punish those who lie and cheat.

Is God really watching us and will he punish the wrongdoers in this lifetime or in the their next birth??

Because this belief is the only thing that is keeping the world moving.

I also trust in God but sometimes I think that only believing and waiting for god is not right.

Then what is a simple and innocent person to do??

Should he also do the same as others or should he maintain status quo??

?????????????????????????????????????????????

Love and Trust

Is love not based on trust??
Is trust not an essential element of love??

If yes...

Then what should a person do if his/her lover breaks his/her trust ??

Should he leave her??
Or
Should he give her another chance ??

If he gives her another chance, because he loves her, and she breaks the trust again then what should a person ???

Leave her??
or
Give her another chance, so that she might understand his feelings??

How many chances must we give to any person, who we love, to come good on our trust??

How many times.....???

Does forgiving her mean that he does not have enough courage to leave her?
or
Does it mean that he loves her so much that he is ready to give her another chance so that they can build their relationship?

But the question is: how many times must he forgive her??
Or
Does love mean that you keep forgiving her forever???

India Gate was built to remember the sacrifices of the many Indian soldiers who laid down their lives for the country- their motherland, INDIA. The soldiers who died, still live in our minds in the form of the eternal flame, the Jyoti, burning at INDIA GATE.

This BYB Sunday post is a tribute to soldiers across the world who risk their lives, waging war, so that there can be peace.

Khuswant's Jokes

INDIA -- THE NEW MILLENNIUM


Cheer up my son, buck up my boy,

You are living in 'The Land of Joy'. You go to

school where they do not teach,

In the House of God, they hatred preach. If you

have merit, you will sigh and sob,

If you are backward, you might get a job. Out of

caste, if you dare to wed,

Your kith and kin will chop your head. If you are

honest, in north or in south,

You will live from hand to mouth. If you

are wily and your means sinister,

You are likely to become a chief minister. But

remember the new maxim, my lad,

Defection is good, conversion is bad.

LABOUR WOES

The Indian and Cuban labour

ministers were in the midst of a meeting.

Cuban labour minister: 'Labour problems in our nation

produce hundreds of types of tensions for me.'

Indian labour minister: 'That's nothing. Labour

problems in our nation produce 50,000 babies every day.'

CATCH THEM ...!


An Englishman, an American, and a Sardarji were called

upon to test a lie detector.

The Englishman said, T think I can empty 20 bottles of

beer.'

BUZZZZZ went the lie detector.

'OK,' he said, '10 bottles.' And the machine was

silent. ,.

The American said, 'I think I can eat 15 hamburgers.'

BUZZZZZ went the lie detector.

'Alright, 8 hamburgers.' And the machine was silent.

The Sardarji said, `I think ...'

BUZZZZZ went the machine!

ONE FOR IMAMDIN

Subedar Lehna Singh and Subedar Imamdin were in the same regiment in the British Indian Army. They were inseparable friends and spent their evenings drinking together. The partition separated them as Subedar Imamdin was absorbed in the Pakistan Army.To keep his friend's memory alive Subedar Singh always filled two glasses with rum and water and sipped from each alternately! When somebody asked him why he did so, he explained: 'This glass is Imamdin's; this one is mine. So I take a sip from each -- one on behalf of Imamdin, the other for myself.'Suddenly one evening Subedar Lehna Singh was seen with only one glass on his table. He was asked what had happened. He replied, 'You see, I have given up drinking but Imamdin has not. So I have put away my glass and drink only on behalf of my friend.'

G R E E D UNLIMITED

Lala Garib Chand was a wealthy zamindar. He asked his maneem (accountant) to add up all he owned and how long it could last. The muneem added up all his assets and assured him that it would certainly hold out till the traditional saat pusht -- seven generations. Far from of being relieved Lala Garib Chand looked more disconsolate than before and with a great sigh of sorrow are exclaimed, Hai! Hamaaree aathveen pusht ka kya hoga (Oh! What will happen to our eighth generation?)
