The little tree: Worth Reading

The little tree: Worth Reading

something to pass your time....

I hired a plumber to help me restore an old farmhouse, and after he had
just finished a rough first day on the job: a flat tire made him lose an
hour of work, his electric drill quit and his ancient one ton truck refused
to start. While I drove him home, he sat in stony silence.

On arriving, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked toward the
front door, he paused briefly at a small tree, touching the tips of the
branches with both hands.

When opening the door he underwent an amazing transformation. His tanned
face was wreathed in smiles and he hugged his two small children and gave
his wife a kiss.

Afterward he walked me to the car. We passed the tree and my curiosity got
the better of me. I asked him about what I had seen him do earlier.

"Oh, that's my trouble tree," he replied. "I know I can't help having
troubles on the job, but one thing's for sure, those troubles don't belong
in the house with my wife and the children. So I just hang them up on the
tree every night when I come home and ask God to take care of them. Then in
the morning I pick them up again."

"Funny thing is," he smiled, "when I come out in the morning to pick 'em
up, there aren't nearly as many as I remember hanging up the night before."

Saying The Right Thing........

Pretty lame but here it is....

A story....

John wakes up at home with a huge hangover. He forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins and a glass ofwater on the side table. He sits down and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. John looks around the room and sees that it isin perfect order, spotless, clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins and notices a note on the table. "Honey, breakfast is on thestove, I left early to go shopping. Love You!" So he goes to the kitchenand sure enough there is a hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating. John asks, "Son, what happened last night?" His son says, "Well, you came home around 3 AM, drunk and delirious. Brokesome furniture, puked in the hallway, and gave yourself a black eye whenyou stumbled into the door". Confused, John asks, "So, why is everythingin order and so clean, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me? Ishould expect a big quarrel with her!"His son replies, "Oh, that! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when shetried to take your clothes n shoes off, you said, "Lady leave me alone! I'm married!"

Self-induced hangover -- $. 200.00
Broken furniture -- $. 20,00.00
Breakfast -- $. 10.00
Saying The Right Thing While Drunk - PRICELESS

The Fern and the Bamboo.....

The Fern and the Bamboo.....

One day I decided to quit....
I quit my job, my relationship, my spirituality. ....
I wanted to quit my life.
I went to the woods to have one last talk with God.

"God", I said. "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"
His answersurprised me... "Look around", He said. "Do you see the fern and thebamboo?"
"Yes", I replied.
"When I planted the fern and the bambooseeds, I took very good care of them.
I gave them light. I gave them water.The fern quickly grew from the earth. Its brilliant green covered thefloor.Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed.

But I did not quit on the bamboo.
In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful.
And again, nothing came from the bamboo seed.
But I did not quit on the bamboo".

He said. "In the third year, there was still nothing from the bamboo seed.But I would not quit.

In the fourth year, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed.I would not quit."

He said. "Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth.Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant.But just 6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall.

It had spent the five years growing roots.
Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive.
I would not give any of my creations a challenge it could not handle."
He said to me. "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have beenstruggling, you have actually been growing roots?I would not quit on the bamboo.I will never quit on you.
Don't compare yourself to others."

He said. "The bamboo had a different purpose than the fern, yet, theyboth make the forest beautiful." "Your time will come, "God said to me."You will rise high!" "How high should I rise?" I asked. "How high willthe bamboo rise?" He asked in return. "As high as it can?" I questioned."Yes." He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can."

Never regret a day in your life.
Good days give you Happiness.
Bad days give you Experiences.
Both are essential to life.
Keep going...Happiness keeps you Sweet,
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrows keep you Human,
Failures keep you Humble,
Success keeps You GlowingLove keeps you Alive,
But Only God keeps You Going!

GOD is too wise to be mistaken...
GOD is too good to be unkind...
so when you don't understand..
when you don't see HIS plan...
when you can't trace HIS hand...
HAVE FAITH AND TRUST HIS HEART!

CAN'T LOOK THAT OLD

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN GUILTY OF LOOKING AT OTHERS OF YOUR OWN AGE ANDTHINKING, SURELY I CAN'T LOOK THAT OLD?"

WELL ... YOU'LL LOVE THIS ONE!

HE ANSWERED, "IN 1969. WHY DO YOU ASK?""YOU WERE IN MY CLASS!" I EXCLAIMED.

HE LOOKED AT ME CLOSELY.THEN, THAT UGLY, OLD, WRINKLED MAN ASKED,"WHAT DID YOU TEACH?"

Appraisal letter .. .. :)

Dear Manager (HR),

Bob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found
hard at work in his cubicle. Bob works independently, without
wasting company time talking to colleagues. Bob never
thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always
finishes given assignments on time. Often Bob takes extended
measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee
breaks. Bob is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no
vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound
knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Bob can be
classed as a high-calibre employee, the type which cannot be
dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Bob be
promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be
sent away as soon as possible.

Signed - Project Leader

A MEMO WAS SOON SENT FOLLOWING THE LETTER:

"That stupid idiot was reading over my shoulder when I wrote the report
sent to you earlier today. Kindly read only the odd lines (1, 3, 5, 7,
9,11, 13) for my true assessment of him."

Photos of the Mumbai - Pune Express Highway

(*click on image to view enlarged picture)

1. This is a snap of the MPE from one of the over bridges. MPE runs
from the outskirts of Pune to Panvel which is about 50 kms from Mumbai. It
is a six lanes road all throughout, inc! luding the ghat section.

2. Another view. The road has a fence running along the lenght on both
sides to prevent stray animals venturing on the expressway.

3. This is an approach to one of the tunnels on the expressway. One of
the tunnels on this route is almost 1.2 Kms long.

4. Again, an approach to a tunel. Check the sign boards on the road.
The MPE has a dedicated mobile emergency line displayed all over the road.
It also has emergency phone booths along the road to call for assistance.

5. This is a section between Lonavala and Khandala. Since the road
passes thru these towns, they have built an elevated section that pases
over these towns. There are exits for both towns.

6. One of the tunnels. All tunnels are well illuminated and the longer
tunnels have large exhaust fans.

7. This is a breathtaking view of the MPE against the backdrop of the
Khandala ghat. You can see a large waterfall in the bakground as the MPE
snakes its way towards Pune.
