SEEKER AND GURU - HAPPINESS


Seeker went to the Guru. Guru was sitting under the tree which is his permanent residence.
"I am not happy. Where can I find happiness?"
"Happiness is everywhere."
"How can I find happiness?"
Guru smiled. "Simple. There are so many ways. Helping others is one."
"But I don't get chances to help others."

Guru smiled. "Just recall the past. Haven't you helped anyone?"
After deep thinking the seeker said, "No."
"Yesterday?"
" No. "
"Day before yesterday?"
" No. " The seeker said with a sad face .
"But today you have helped two human beings."
The seeker looked at the Guru with confusion.

"You have helped yourself by seeking the way for happiness and you have helped me to help you to find happiness ." The Guru said with a big grin.

The seeker returned with happiness in mind.

Raped without complaint.


Is a true story & have a laugh..

In a late night, a 60 years old widow was awakened by two thieves who were ransacking the house. She was sleeping alone at that time. Finding no valuable thing, the two young strangers got angry. Instead they confronted the scary and frightening lady. She had only a hundred dollar to spare for these desperate robbers. Out of anger and frustration, they took turns to rape the poor elderly woman.

The next morning when her daughter came to her rescue, wanting to take the mother to report to the police, she softly uttered these few words, "Ever since your father passed away 10 years ago, I have not experienced such exciting and tempting sex with any man. They both really thrilled me into paradise with their wildness. Shall I have to tell this part to the police?"

Now readers, you have to guess what is next....!!!!

Would you agree - "When a man talks dirty to a woman, it's sexual harassment. When a woman talks dirty to a man, it's $3.95 a minute" ~Author Unknown

Please love me unconditionally.


Hi ladies out there! I am trying to study women minds. Most female friends I encountered told me this. They feel more secure when their men they loved could provide some forms of security for them to hold. The securities could be a house, car, cash or credit cards. Is it true you feel better when these are given to you. Some ladies said, the more my man gives me, the more I would love him.

Of all there is only one special lady who said, she doesn't need any materialistic possession, except the true love from her husband. I was indeed touched by her statement. When she first married her husband many years ago, he was not doing well in business. He was 22 years older than her. It was his second marriage and the first for the young wife. She married the man with one thought in mind, to be always God fearing and take the husband as important. She loves him without any condition. She prays for him everyday, she prays for his good fortune and welfare. Believe me! Today the man is a very wealthy and successful business man. Though the wife did not even ask, the man is too willing to flower his lady with all those good tastes of life now.

Comparing to those women who demand and request their dreams from their men, non of these couples is as successful as the one I mentioned above. Perhaps most women have forgotten, LOVE is unconditional and LOVE has magic. The minute you have the thought to feel secure by being loved and to love with securities given, this might not be true love in you.

Read this quote carefully.."Behind every successful man, there is always a lady." A lady who could love him whole heartily, making sure he is leading a right path of life. She should feel the glory and pride of seeing her man achieveing success. She has the confidence the man will be standing with her at the same time. Her trust over him is her sense of security and not the house or cash given. It sounds ridiculous but is true facts of love. Any females like to say something. Please correct me if I am at wrong.

A religious woman makes a better wife.


A young man asks a spiritual master, "Advise me guru. To get marry to a good wife, what is the quality that I should look from a woman? Beauty, intelligence or wealth?"

The wise guru hesitate a moment. He says, marry to a religious girl and you would be the most happiest person. A religious woman is one who will take her husband as the most important person on earth next to the God she loves. The teaching that she has been taught would make her beautiful in heart, the guidance of her belief would broaden her mind and her faithful love would inspire her man to be successful.

If the young man applies his ear to listen, he might believe this spiritual wisdom. If he depends his eyes to sight, I am sure he would still look for beauty, intelligence and wealth.

"Treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers." - From the last sermon of Prophet Mohammed .

Sad & Sorrowful is different from Sad & Angry.


What is sadness? Is a feeling of the mind. If you are sad, you feel unhappy, usually because something has happened that you do not like. In my course of selling, I had seen the many feelings of people. I don't think sadness comes with happiness but for sure sadness has two types. Either you are sad and sorrowful or sad and angry.

When your friends are sad and sorrowful, it's easy to approach them. Allow your shoulder and ears and most likely they would heal their sadness. However be extremely careful with those who are sad and angry, their minds are violent and their thoughts are always unforgiving. Any unwanted words and statement might disturb amd aggravate their emotion further. Is never easy to console a sad angry person because that person speaks faster than you could listen. Offering your shoulder to an angry man or woman is of no use. Perhap the best way is to keep silent and just listen to him or her. Time is the only remedy to deal with such situation.

If you are still sad & angry, this might help you - “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction...The chain reaction of evil...hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars... must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.”
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Centenarian ‘Tea King’ marries woman half his age




Recent news..CENTENARIAN “King of Tea” Zhang Tianfu married acrobatic performer Zhang Xiaohong, who is almost half his age, in a grand ceremony attended by friends and relatives.

Zhang used to be a close friend of Xiao­hong’s husband, who died of illness two years ago, China Press reported.

He had apparently wanted to take care of the widow soon after his friend’s passing and proposed to Xiaohong at a teahouse.

The 57-year-old widow had initially rejected the proposal due to the huge age gap between her and Zhang.

However, she later agreed to the marriage after feeling touched by Zhang’s continuous overtures. Zhang’s wife died nine years ago.

The couple held their wedding ceremony at a five-star hotel in Fuzhou, China last Sunday. The marriage had drawn widespread attention in China, especially among the local tea industry players.

My person view: Who say the old cannot get marry? Just that they need courage, determination and full of love in the heart. Once you lose these attributes in yourself, the desire to live diminishes.

Carrot or Threat?


Life is all about "Carrot or Threat". I think to raise a child, love alone isn't sufficient. At times, the child has to be given the carrot to encourage him to study. A price or a special gift could make him studies harder. If the carrot doesn't work, perhaps the threat has to come into force. The cane or no pocket money could correct his mistakes.

Effective companies apply "carrot or threat" to their staffs as well. Extra bonuses or incentives are given to those who are productive, I termed them as carrots. De-promotion and termination of employment are considered as threat.

Don't be surprised "love & romance" has "carrot or threat" too. For the men...if you could sweeten her, sex is on the way for you but if you are naughty and misbehaved, she might throw you out of the house.

For those who are spiritual inclined, hell is the threat and heaven is the carrot. Whether you like it or not, our lives are always encountered with these two miracle forces. Threat injects us the fear and the carrot spurs us to move.
