Two sisters, one blonde and one brunette, inherit the family ranch.
Unfortunately, after just a few years, they are in financial trouble.
In order to keep the bank from repossessing the ranch, they need to purchase a bull so that they can breed their own stock.
Upon leaving, the brunette tells her sister,
"When I get there, if I decide to buy the bull, I'll contact you to drive out after me and haul it home."
The brunette arrives at the man's ranch, inspects the bull, and decides she wants to buy it. The man tells her that he will sell it for $599, no less. After buying him, she drives to the nearest town to send her sister a telegram to tell her the news. She walks into the telegraph office, and says,
"I want to send a telegram to my sister telling her that I've bought a bull for our ranch. I need her to hitch the trailer to our pickup truck and drive out here so we can haul it home."
The telegraph operator explains that he'll be glad to help her, then adds, "It's just 99 cents a word." Well, after paying for the bull, the brunette only has $1 left.

She realizes that she'll only be able to send her sister one word. After thinking for a few minutes, she nods, and says, "I want you to send her the word "comfortable".

The telegraph operator shakes his head. "How is she ever going to know that you want her to hitch the trailer to your pickup truck and drive out here to haul that bull back to your ranch if you send her the word, "comfortable?''The brunette explains, "My sister's blonde. The word's big. She'll read it slow. - - - -("com-for-da-bul" )

to live or die.

.. A man with outward courage dares to die. ..A man with inward courage dares to live so the Lao-Tzu said..
I think its so true! it is easy to die, especially in this 21st century, where every possible way to simply leave this earth is so so accessible!..but to live, that take sheer amount of courage, determination and strength to face what seem really unbearable and impossible..!

so..cheers to this "little" thing call L^iFe..to living..in a hell like heaven..!

adjUsting!

one's character is like
A.P.P.L.E : Crunchy and Firm, with Shiny and Smooth skin
while the other is akin to that of
O.R.A.N.G.E : Juicy and soft, with Hard and Rough skin…
when destiny pulls string to bring both together.. bringing two hearts joined as one..
what else can they do but to COMPROMISE

Auld Lang Syne

I never like to say goodbyes..so whenever I bid farewell, I will say "see u or tata"..!But then in life it seems, goodbyes are necessary..goodbyes are essential..to move on in life, to let go of past..to look ahead to future!

I believe somehow , somewhere, somewhat, sometime...there will be a time for everything..yes there will..

below is a song which is often sang at farewells..a song i love to sing yet will never fail to bring me tears...i am sharing with all of u now..hope u like it..

Auld Lang Syne (Mairi Campbell And Dave Francis)

Soundtrack: Sex and the City: The Movie
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

And never brought to mind?

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

And days of auld lang syne?

And days of auld lang syne, my dear,

And days of auld lang syne.

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,

And days of auld lang syne?

We twa hae run aboot the braes

And pu'd the gowans fine.

We've wandered mony a weary foot,

Sin' auld lang syne.

Sin' auld lang syne,

my dear, Sin' auld lang syne,

We've wandered mony a weary foot,

Sin' auld ang syne.

wa hae sported i' the burn,

From morning sun till dine,

But seas between us braid hae roared Sin' auld lang syne.

Sin' auld lang syne,

my dear, Sin' auld lang syne.

But seas between us braid hae roared Sin' auld lang syne.

And ther's a hand, my trusty friend,

And gie's a hand o' thine;

We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,

For auld lang syne.

For auld lang syne, my dear,

For auld lang syne,

We'll tak' a cup o' kindness yet,

For auld lang syne

S vs T

Superficial versus Thoughtfulness

How can we know whether one is being caring towards a girl superficially or if that care stems truly from the heart due to his thoughtfulness? I think only time can tell. Someone has told me before that it is easy to be superficial when treating girls. The hard part is to know whether if the boy is treating her either in superficial way or not. Usually for guys, it is hard to get them to be “gentleman”, let alone caring. Thus if the boy is really thoughtful and caring towards a girl, I guess only time can foretell. And I am thinking what the person has told me is really true! Because the superficial person can act his role well in the beginning, but then after awhile, true colors reveal. He may over look many things and may come up with excuses of being forgetful and busy. Whereas for a thoughtful guy, he is consistent and because he has the girl in his heart, his caring and thoughts naturally turn to her. He need not be reminded of many things. Of course we must not forget that human being human has faults and defects but still true feelings are easily shown and seen while fake ones and pretences will fade away with time, just like a cloak, one can't wear it for long..

ps:

These are just my thoughts. I promise no underlying meaning or indication. Ya yap.Cross my fingers, cross my heart! lolz..hehe

forever-fren-bear

FFB- forever friend bear..the Forever Fren Bear fever is getting worse!!my recent likeness for it has taken for a worse turn..from setting it as screen saver to wall paper...to even thinking of getting a soft toy!..the worst is whever i close my eyes, i would be seeing it..perhaps, i am not sure if it is the bear itself that i m crazy over or that someone who looks like it..

i wonder..hmm..but whatever it is, i hope this fever will not go as fast as it comes.. :P

H^Ô^M^E

Lately there have been many posts on the topic - HOME from most of the blog sites I visited.

thus..getting inspiration from all of them, i too will be “thick skinned” and shall write my view of home!

Well, the word “home” brings to mind a warmness, a sweet thought that one can’t help having. In my opinion home is a place where body get warm, soul get nutrients, hearts are united and love is shared. Home need not be grand, or big or luxurious! All it needs is to be built on understanding, trust, believe, commitment and most of all love.. Home is where I am with my loved ones.. that’s my definition of home!

I wonder if I can build a home of my own ..but I believe that..somehow.. somewhere..someday..I will have it..with someone i love, with someone who love me dearly..one whom i will spend the rest of my life with..together..forever ...hmmm

all trouble brew from bubble ..

it all started with a simple fault..the sound system..no sound..no tones..simply nothing..!
then it went all the way to recovery of whole system and then to toll free hotline and endless calls and finally to sending it off..once more..

i am really not sure why am i so jinx to PC, laptop..all kinds of small or big things that have to do with computer, internet, software and basically to pressing keys and typing of codes!
sigh..
well not that i did not understand english or that i have not learn of computer parts and its language..i just simply ...can't....iyo..hiyo
and one may not believe me but if i were to count among my circle of friends, i have got big shot computer pros..one who is good in software, ánother who is expert in both troubleshooting and solving..and a handful who make living out of that occupation ....but yet.. i feel "paiseh (arr nar)" to approach them..afterall they are all working and there are many more things that need their attention..nevertheless, i wish i have tiny winy bits of their knowledge imparted to me..in order to prevent any more performance and aftermath of my magical touch!!!

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wat a shity day!!!!!
yucky..weeeekttttttttttttyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
can someone out there...pls pls pls..touch me with ur magic wand...
take this magical touch away..pls pls pls..

trUtH

Sometimes, life isn't what it seems..things always turn out to be otherwise..much better or much worse than what one could expect! The Truth (with a capital T) sometimes looks so obvious,

we don't take the time to look again... And so we never realize that we've been ignoring something important...Sometimes, we ignore the most important truths in ourlives...

because they are unpleasant ..Sometimes, we ignore them because we see so many other things, so many other details, that we do not notice really important, otherones.Sometimes, it is simply because we just don't know any better.Truths we already think we know, can stand in the way of learning... new truths, that are far better for us, that help us get to where we want..

to the T R U T Hs ..I seek thee..!

Friendship vs Love

~Friendship vs Love~

Friendship is a quiet walk in the park with the one you trust.

Love is when you feel like you are the only two around.

Friendship is when they gaze into your eyes and you know they care.

Love is when they gaze into your eyes and it warms your heart .

Friendship is being close even when you are far apart.

Love is when you can still feel their hand on your heart when they are not near.

Friendship is hoping that they experience the very best.

Love is when you bring them the very best.

Friendship occupies your mind.

Love occupies your soul.

Friendship is knowing that you will always try to be there when in need.

Love is when you will give up everything to be at their side.

Friendship is a warm smile in the winter.

Love is a warming touch that sends a pulse through your heart.

Love is a beautiful smile to which nothing compares.

A tender laugh, which opens your heart.

A single touch that melts away your fears.

A smell that reminds you of the tenderness of heaven.

A voice that reminds you of the innocence of youth.

Friendship can survive without love but ...Love cannot live without friendship. above is a lovely message I received from forward mails..hope one would enjoy reading it!

open ur heart, mind and soul..to love and friendship..

isn't he a lucky fellower who has both of the worlds :P

The Bathtub Test

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director
do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized.
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer ateaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub."

"Oh, I understand," said the visitor.

"A normal person would use thebucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."

"No." said the Director, " A normal person would pull the plug. Do youwant a bed near the window?"

CarE-a-lot Meter!

A session taken from The Care Bear Movie:

Funshine Bear: Tenderheart! Tenderheart! The caring meter dropped two whole points! [everyone gasps]
Love-a-Lot-Bear: A lot of people must have suddenly just stopped caring. Kim: What could have caused that?
Tender Heart Bear: The same thing that caused the cloud quake. A boy named Nicholas is being taken over by an evil spirit.
Jason: An evil spirit?
Kim: So, what happens when the caring meter drops to zero?
Love-a-Lot-Bear: No one in the world will care anymore. [Secret Bear whispers to Kim]
Kim: And the end of Care-A-Lot?
Tender Heart Bear: I think that's exactly what the spirit has in mind!

How will you react if you happen to meet a friendly person? One who treats you sincerely...with much friendliness and care? How will you react to his or her kind treatment or gesture?..Will the first thought of suspicion comes to mind? or..would you accept it and befriend them in similar way?

Perhaps, it is one of human nature to be cynical and be suspicious of another person good will. But then again, aren’t we all being too paranoid to read into the simple gestures what others did for us simply out of their kind nature or generosity? Are we not being over a little unreasonable to look in too much over a simple gesture, a simple word, a simple action?
Why do humans be males or females like to think that when the other party of opposite sex begin to befriend, they can’t help but start to worry that he or she might have ulterior motive in doing so. Perhaps the most instantaneous idea they would get will be that the other party might be interested in them. Isn’t it laughable if everyone thinks in such nonsensical way? Is there no existence of any genuine friendship in this world? Haven’t anyone heard of platonic friendship between parties of opposite sex? I wonder why some people tend to make things into complicated matters when in facts things are as pure and as simple as learning ABC! Maybe to them their friendly meter must be super low or they must have taken down their care meter in the rush for worldly and superficial assess..!

Nareepol Tree (Women Tree)

This is real saw in Bangkok and also in discovery channel...Perhaps the tree had been cursed.....This amazing tree named 'Nareepol' in Thai.

Naree means 'girl/woman' and pol means plant/tree or 'buah' in Malay.

Can You Figure These Out? - - Q

Can You Figure These Out?

1.
A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3 years.
Which room is safest for him?

2.

A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for Over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go
out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

3.

What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?
4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

5.

This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out.

Try to do so without any coaching! i'm sure u can...can't u? :P

Piggie in Wellington Boots!

we all know the Pussy-in-boots..story..

but then.. Behold...for something so cute you could not even have conceived of it. ..Piggie Cinder in wellington boots!
You can't get much happier than a pig in mud, or so we are being told. But when this little piggy was born in the farmyard, she showed a marked reluctance to join her siblings as they splashed around in the mud. While others are enjoying dishing in the dirt and mud, she stayed on the edge shaking. It is thought that she might have mysophobia - a fear of dirt.

TaDa...!!! Custom-made Stationary holder- wellington boots.. did the trick !
cute sia..., woaahaha.

The owners, Debbie and Andrew Keeble were at a loss, until they remembered the four miniature boots used as pen and pencil holders in their office. They slipped them on the piglet's feet - and into the mud she happily ploughed. . . The couple, who run the award-winning Debbie and Andrew's sausage company in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, named the young saddleback Cinders after Cinderella and her magical glass slippers. They are using her to front a campaign to give a better deal to pig farmers. It was mentioned by the owners that Cinders will be spared from the sausage factory as "She's more of a pet really now and she's going to live a very long and happy life," instead serving as a mascot for the Farm Crisis Network, which supports struggling farmers.

Mysophobia (mə′liz·mə′fō·bē·ə) — commonly known as germaphobia,

is a term used to describe a pathological or irrational fear of contact with dirt, to avoid contamination and germs. A person with this fear is often referred to as a “mysophobe.”

SOMETHING CALLED "LIFE"

something lovely..i got it ..from a website..dedicated..to..::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

THIS IS HOW WE MISS OUT SOMETHING CALLED "LIFE"

A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage.
They were a loving couple and the boy was the gem of their eyes.
When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for office so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen totally forgot the matter.
The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to thebottle fascinated by its color and drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died.
The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband. When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just five words.

QUESTIONS :
1. What were the five words ?
2. What is the implication of this story?

ANSWER :
The husband just said "I am with you Darling"!

The husband's totally unexpected reaction is a proactive behavior.
The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life.
There is no pointin finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened.. No one is to be blamed.
She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.

If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems in the world. "A journey of a thousand milesbegins with a single step". Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears. And you will find things areactually not as difficult as you think.


MORAL OF THE STORY:
This story is really worth reading. .....

Sometimes we spend time in asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship,in a job or with the people we know.

By this way we miss out something called L.I.F.E ..
I hope you don't get to miss a part of life..even if it is for a while..coz life is precious..life is short..life is unpredictable!!

Destiny ~*

Destiny is no matter of chance.

it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved..
that is according to William Jennings Bryan!

This theory is what I believe in and which I often put into practice in my everyday life.

I believe in getting things I want!

I believe in making things happen.

I believe in will power and determination.

I believe in working on what I would like to have.

I never believe in having my wishes come true or to wait till nature takes its own course. But then …

I am proven wrong! How wrong are my perceptions! What more can I go beyond Really!I really wish to make IT happen but then seems like I am not fated to do so. Destiny doesn’t have room for miracles and neither does it make exception to special cases.

Sigh!....

our precious treaure: T*I*M*E
