Give some thought..

There is this email tht i rcv today & would lik to share it here..

Wise sayings and a story:-
Remember, the difference between 'anger' and 'danger' is one alphabet.
Do not overlook this one little alphabet, it may affect our careers, and even human relationship.
There is a Chinese saying, 'Accidents / disasters are from the mouth..'

Experts say:
'People, when dealing with outsiders, always carry or present themselves in a kind and harmonious manner.
But, when facing their own closest family members, it could end up in quarrels and hurting each other, often over small little things'.

You have no qualms about showing your anger to your belovedones and family members.
But would you also show your anger to your superior or your bosses?

Human beings may possess high E.Q while away from home, but at home their E.Q becomes low. This is not exaggeration.
Be more patient and show endurance to your family members! Otherwise you will not be happy as well.

In the English language, the words 'stressed' and 'desserts' have a very unique relationship. What is that relationship?
By looking carefully, they do not seem to have any connection.

But, when you see more carefully, you will find the word 'stressed' if read reversely, it becomes 'desserts'.
Isn't it wonderful if we could turn our 'Stressed' into 'desserts'?

In life, at times, there are a lot of 'pressures and failures'
If we could change our mindset and see things from different angles it would result in 'desserts' in our life. Apart from the above, there is another saying,
'Life is just like a bowl of rice, half is sweet while the other half is bitter,You do not know which half you should eat first but still have to finish them all'
Yeah, life is full of sweetness, bitterness, sourness and also spiciness. Still we have to experience it and swim through it.

There was one primary teacher in a remote village. She came to classroom and asked the little children 'Do you have anyone that you hate the most?'
The little children thought for a while, some remained silent and some nodded their heads. The teacher then gave a bag to each of the children and said:

'Let us play a game.
If you could think of any person who hurt you in the past one week, after class please collect a stone from the riverside, paste a paper with the name of that person on the stone and place the stone in the bag. The bigger the hurt, the bigger should be your stone. If it is a small hurt, then it should be a small stone. I want you all to carry the bag with the stones to the class everyday'.
The students found the game was very interesting They rushed to riverside to search for the stones after class

The next morning, The children carried their bags with the stones to school and were happily chatting away.
This went on the first day, second day and on the third day it was over.
Some were carrying bigger and bigger bags that became a burden

At last, Some children started to complain, 'Teacher, very tiring' and the teacher was laughing without saying a word There was one student shouted loudly,' Yeah, it is very tiring to carry the stones to class everyday'
The teacher finally smiled at the child and said: 'You should let go all the stones that carry other people's mistakes'
The children were surprised
The teacher continued and said: 'Learn to forgive people's mistake,

Do not keep them as treasures in your heart and carry them on the shoulder, over time , none of us will be able to stand the weight of the burden anymore.'
This week, the children had learn a very precious lesson in life The more and bigger stones are in the bag, the more hatred the heart will harbour and the hatred will become deeper and deeper. The burden will become heavier and heavier..
If you had written my name on your stones You should know what to do now!

proverbs of the day:
'Forgiving people's mistakes is a glory to us' Learn to 'let go', it will free us..

Do not be stingy to share; perhaps there are people who need it.

Love is easy but living and getting together is difficult
