A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups: porcelain, plastic, glass, some plain-looking and some expensive and exquisite, telling them to help themselves to hot coffee. When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: “If you noticed, all the nice-looking, expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the better cups and are eyeing each other’s cups.” “Now, if Life is coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and con

There once was a farmer who discovered that he had lost his watch in the barn. It was no ordinary watch because it had sentimental value for him. After searching high and low among the hay for a long while; he gave up and enlisted the help of a group of children playing outside the barn. He promised them that the person who found it would be rewarded. Hearing this, the children hurried inside the barn, went through and around the entire stack of hay but still could not find the watch. Just when the farmer was about to give up looking for his watch, a little boy went up to him and asked to be given another chance. The farmer looked at him and thought, "Why not? After all, this kid looks sincere enough." So the farmer sent the little boy back in the barn. After a while the little boy came out with the watch in his hand! The farmer was both happy and surprised and so he asked the boy how he succeeded where the rest had failed. The boy replied, "I did nothing but sit

Once upon a time there was a rich King who had four wives.  He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to the finest of delicacies.  He gave her nothing but the best. He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off to neighboring kingdoms. However, he feared that one day she would leave him for another. He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confident and was always kind, considerate and patient with him.  Whenever the King faced a problem, he could confide in her, and she would help him get through the difficult times. The King's 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he did not love the first wife. Although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her or even fed or clothed her properly! One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was short. He thought of his luxurious life and wondered,  "I now have four wives with me, b

I keep looking for meaning, but all I've found so far is that in order to be at peace with the present, we must be at peace with the past, because the present is a product of the past.  Accept. Accept. Accept.  Learn to love the present moment.  What happened, happened.   It's difficult to understand the big picture when our lives are mere brush strokes on the canvas of reality.  Trusting that it all fits together to form something beautiful is the purest form of faith.  Anything else is a dangerous distraction.  No contracts with God, no expectations of reward, just trust.  ~ Paul Buchheit Source: Friend's Wall @ Facebook

Learn from the mistakes of others... you can't live long enough to make them all yourselves!! A person should not be too honest. Straight trees are cut first and Honest people are screwed first. Even if a snake is not poisonous, it should pretend to be venomous. There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interests. This is a bitter truth. Before you start some work, always ask yourself three questions - Why am I doing it, What the results might be and Will I be successful. Only when you think deeply and find satisfactory answers to these questions, go ahead." As soon as the fear approaches near, attack and destroy it. The world's biggest power is the youth and beauty of a woman. Once you start a working on something, don't be afraid of failure and don't abandon it. People who work sincerely are the happiest. The fragrance of flowers spreads only in the direction of the wind. But the goodness of a person spr

Just because I laugh a lot, doesn't mean my life is easy.  Just because I have a smile on my face every day, doesn't mean that something is not bothering me.  I just choose move on, and not dwell on all the negative in my life.  Every new moment gives me the chance to renew anew. I choose to be that.  - Unknown
