Thailand tiger temple

Thailand tiger temple   Thailand's Tiger Temple is the place where you can meet some friendly tigers… or that's what they say.   I'm sure you saw the documentary on Animal Planet, but I'm not sure if you saw the reports about animal cruelty.                                   __,_._,___

Funny Thing Called SMS


Hi This is Bobby Koshy Varghese Reporting Yet Again From God's Own Country.

This thing happened when I was in One of those Beautiful, vibrant, enigmatic , euphoric , sentimental, romantic , magnanimous n buoyant college days. Mobile phones Where Usurping every Jeans Pocket In the College. On My End Its as Usual as to grab any new Trend that's at the gates of the campus. So there I was in front of all the mobile stores in the town in search of the so called "Cant- BEAT- my-Phone " sort of Phone. Keeping In My Mind the Serious scarcity for money I tried to negotiate Between Style and the golden Bucks I managed to sneak from Dad on my last trip to Home.

Finally I got Hold Of one Which was really cool and which was a fair compromise between my likings and my budget.Anyway I ensured that it would impress everyone.

On the days that followed the whole campus started twinkling with Mobile Phone Mania. People got Phones Which were more impressive than that of mine. This is what u call as Getting Outdated. And Hence Forth Came the Great Era of SMSs. Coz making calls wont suffice the monthly Pocket Money That arrived from Home. I used to wonder How many SMSs ld b flying across the skies of our campus. So much so that they could cause air traffic Problems.


SMS (if U dont know ) fall into 8 different catogories. They are:-


1.Love Messages( Couples Sending it to each other. 24X7 service and forms the Bulk of the Lot)

2Friendship messages( The Solace of the commoner. This comes with the relief that someone is there to think of u )

3.Group messages(Cheapest of the lot and the most widely exploited)

4.Forwards(U do it coz u r frustrated since u don recieve any and hence in expectation of recieving a reply or another forward)

5.Airtel,Hutch, Idea Offers(Sometimes Very Useful, at times it will rib ur brain)

6.Informational Messages(Like The Ones U recieve from ur class Rep Saying that the class test is postponed)

7.Personal Messages(Eg: "Hows U? Hows Life?" Though U met her Before leaving college,that particular Evening, u just cant resist the crush)

8.AnonyMousMessages(The Most Interesting as well as the Most DANGEROUS of the SMS genere)

How girlz rate guyz

How girlz rate guyz

Girls' relationship with guys is a bigger mystery than girls themselves. It's not just about boyfriends, we're talking about guy friends that gals have. Do you have a gal who is just a friend? Are confused why the frequency of calls increases as exams loom closer? Or why she always hangs around with the moron who isn't fit to wear Jeetendra's white shoes? Here's a ready reckoner for you: % just a friend % Well, you are like a show piece in my house. I will call you whenever I need you. If you call me home the chances are 9 out of 10 times she might say, "Oh Rahul, I am going out can you call me after 2 days??" Rahul: "Where are you going Shilpa??" Shilpa: "None of your business" and bangs the phone.(Useless fellow.Hmmph! ). % Good Friend % You are like a TV remote control. I need you and I know that. But I try using you when I really need you. Rahul calls: "Hi Shilpa", Shilpa: "Hi Rahul. I am going out with family I will call you back. Bye" (Shilpa calls back after two days) Shilpa: "What do you want Rahul? Why did you call that day?". Rahul: "Generally". Shilpa: "Oh ok. I got to go out. Will call you later. Bye." Will call when she needs lecture notes or some concert tickets. % Very good friend % Well you are like the pressure cooker safety value for the girl. She will need you when she wants to bring out her pain or anger on someone. Basically, she wants to talk to you. And you are special to her. Shilpa: "You know Rahul, Shekhar is not eating. He doesn't sleep and is not able to concentrate on his studies. I think he doesn't like me anymore. And yesterday I saw him with another girl". Rahul: "Who is Shekhar??" Shilpa : "My boyfriend." Rahul: Oh! ok. :-( % Best Friend % You are like the auto rickshaw driver. She can't live without you. And don't be mistaken. You are not her boyfriend. But you are allowed to take her little doggie around the park so that he (not you!) can have fun. Rahul Shopping. Rahul Movie. Rahul Coffee. Rahul,you pay. I am having fun. Rahul is now sure that he should go ahead and propose. He dares. Shilpa: "But I thought we were just friends. We should remain friends Rahul. Plus, I have a boy friend you know that." Rahul: What?? (Rahul drinks all night). % Best of the Bestest Friends % Ok now you are really special. You are dad-cum-boyfriend- cum-brother- cum-everything. Ultimately you are the darling servant of the girl. You take her around. You make her project. You do her assignments. You are allowed to take her doggie around. You can hold hands on the beach. You can see the sun set with her (because she wants to do everything she drags you along). But but but... don't be mistaken. She has a boyfriend who works for a huge software company and earns 3 times the salary you earn and has a flat in PoesGardenor Boat Club or Hiranandani area. Shilpa: "Hi Rahul. I am getting engaged to Shekhar. Shekhar this is Rahul, he is my bestest friend". Rahul: Hi Shekhar . (Hand shake. Shekhar breaks Rahul's wrist). Rahul is now heart broken and wrist broken. % Boyfriend % Uh... No comments dude. You're already Gone For all Rahul type guys? Make sure that you tell Shilpa about Mamta. And about Maya? and about Tina also? This will open Shilpa's eyes!!!! Send it to boys to improve their Knowledge bank :) Send it to girls who want to live in reality :) Eventually? both will laugh

 

Tao of forgiveness

The Tao Of Forgiveness   Love Good Reading?     One day, the sage gave the disciple an empty sack and a basket of potatoes. "Think of all the people who have done or said something against you in the recent past, especially those you cannot forgive.   For each of them, inscribe the name on a potato and put it in the sack."   target="_blank" >The disciple came up quite a few names, and soon his sack was heavy with potatoes.   target="_blank" >"Carry the sack with you wherever you go for a week," said the sage. "We'll talk after that."   target="_blank" >At first, the disciple thought nothing of it. Carrying the sack was not particularly difficult. But after a while, it became more of a burden. It sometimes got in the way, and it seemed to require more effort to carry as time went on, even though its weight remained the same.   After a few days, the sack began to smell. The carved potatoes gave off a ripe odor. Not only were they increasingly inconvenient to carry around, they were also becoming rather unpleasant.   Finally, the week was over. The sage summoned the disciple. "Any thoughts about all this?"   "Yes, Master," the disciple replied. "When we are unable to forgive others, we carry negative feelings with us everywhere, much like these potatoes. That negativity becomes a burden to us and, after a while, it festers."   "Yes, that is exactly what happens when one holds a grudge. So, how can we lighten the load?"   "We must strive to forgive."   "Forgiving someone is the equivalent of removing the corresponding potato from the sack. How many of your transgressors are you able to forgive?"   "I've thought about it quite a bit, Master," the disciple said. "It required much effort, but I have decided to forgive all of them."   "Very well, we can remove all the potatoes. Were there any more people who transgressed against you this last week?"   The disciple thought for a while and admitted there were. Then he felt panic when he realized his empty sack was about to get filled up again.   "Master," he asked, "if we continue like this, wouldn't there always be potatoes in the sack week after week?"   "Yes, as long as people speak or act against you in some way, you will always have potatoes."   "But Master, we can never control what others do. So what good is the Tao in this case?"   "We're not at the realm of the Tao yet. Everything we have talked about so far is the conventional approach to forgiveness. It is the same thing that many philosophies and most religions preach - we must constantly strive to forgive, for it is an important virtue. This is not the Tao because there is no striving in the Tao."   "Then what is the Tao, Master?"   "You can figure it out. If the potatoes are negative feelings, then what is the sack?"   "The sack is... That which allows me to hold on to the negativity. It is something within us that makes us dwell on feeling offended.... Ah, it is my inflated sense of self-importance. " ,_._,___
