Who Is Happy… Find Out The Secret .. !!!

A crow lived in the forest and was absolutely satisfied in life.

But one day he saw a swan. “This swan is so white,” he thought, “and I am so black.

This swan must be the happiest bird in the world.”

He expressed his thoughts to the swan. “Actually,” the swan replied, “I was feeling that I was the happiest bird around until I saw a parrot, which has two colours. I now think the parrot is the happiest bird in creation.”

The crow then approached the parrot. The parrot explained, “I lived a very happy life—until I saw a peacock. I have only two colours, but the
peacock has multiple colours.”

The crow then visited a peacock in the zoo and saw that hundreds of people had gathered to see him.

After the people had left, the crow approached the peacock. “Dear peacock,” the crow said, “you are so beautiful. Every day thousands of people come to see you. When people see me, they immediately shoo me away. I think you are the happiest bird on the planet.”

The peacock replied, “I always thought that I was the most beautiful and happy bird on the planet. But because of my beauty, I am entrapped in this zoo.

I have examined the zoo very carefully, and I have realized that the crow is the only bird not kept in a cage. So for past few days I have been thinking that if I were a crow, I could happily roam everywhere.”

That’s our problem too. We make unnecessary comparison with others and become sad. We don’t value what God has given us. This all leads to the vicious cycle of unhappiness.

Have Life ahead valuing the things God has given us.

Learn the secret of being happy and discard the comparison which leads only to unhappiness.

Bright and Beautiful…Blooming Home with Colorful Flowers !!!

This is the blooming marvellous sight of a house completely covered in a rainbow of summer flowers – and it’s been a labour of love for 26 years.

Anne and Robin Strange, who devote every spare hour to their luscious house-garden, say they are still adding to the display almost three decades after they began.

The pair spend hundreds of pounds every year on seeds and plants, nurturing them inside a greenhouse before putting them on display in mid-June.
Flowers

Colourful: Anne Strange amongst the thousands of rainbow coloured blooms almost covering her house in North Yorkshire

Mrs Strange, 65, said: ‘We were in York one day looking at all the beautiful hanging baskets and we were inspired to create our own.

We have been planting more and more flowers ever since.’

The couple, of Coniston Cold, North Yorkshire, have had an amazing response from motorists who drive past their multicoloured home.

Flowers Inspired: Motorists adore looking at the couple’s home

Flowers Flowers  Bright and beautiful: Even back in 1988, left, and in 1980, right, the Strange’s house looked stunning but over the years it’s become even more beautiful

One woman even sends them a gift voucher every Christmas to express her appreciation of the spectacle.

Mrs Strange added: ‘People think its great, we get cards from people we have never even met.’

Mr Strange, 65, who works for Tree Tops Forestry, spends every weekend and evening seeing to the garden.

Dedication: Mr and Mrs Strange spend hundreds of pounds every year planting seeds and nurturing the blooms inside a greenhouse

Mrs Strange said: ‘I dread to think how much money goes on the garden, but it definitely all adds up.

‘It is worth it though, we are both very pleased with what we have created.’

Message For the Day…” What is Liberation ?..Help Ever , Hurt Never … “

Do not find faults with others. If you point an accusing finger at someone, remember three fingers are pointing to you. Wear the ornament of Truth to adorn your neck (Sathyam Kantasya Bhushanam). Charity is the true ornament that make your hands beautiful and elegant (Hasthasya Bhushanam Dhanam). Thus you must sanctify each limb of your body by engaging in sacred activities. Your eyes should look at only sacred things. Do you know what an enormous power is latent in your eyes? There are crores of light rays in them. In olden days, people used to invoke the grace of Sun God to have a better vision. When you performSurya-namaskar (worship of Sun God) and invoke His grace, the light rays in your eyes will become more effulgent and inspire you. People aspire to attain liberation. What is liberation? Help ever, hurt never – that is true liberation. To get rid of attachment (moha) is true liberation (moksha).

” An Airplane Apartment For Rent …” !!!

KLM, or the Royal Dutch Airlines, is nothing if not dramatic and after that much controversial and much adorable Sherlock ad, they are back in the news with a bang. This time with an airplane on rent. Listed on vacation rental site,  http://www.airbnb.com, the airline has on offer a retired KLM MD-11, white and blue flight and completely refurbished like a plush hotel. Of course, it’s a promotional stunt, but it’s a pretty good one at that.
THIS Might Break The Internet: An Airplane-Apartment You Could Live in For a Day

This is the airline’s shout out to airplane aficionados, who are required to “Pick any date and tell us why and with whom you would like to stay in the Airplane Apartment!”

The winner(s) of this contest will be offered a chance to stay in the airplane apartment in all its glory for a night.

For those wondering – no, the plane is not located in the middle of an exotic island amid sparkling blue water and pink sunrises and sunsets, but is “located right beside the runway of Amsterdam’s bustling Schiphol airport”.  But also for the record, the airplane has two bedrooms, eight bathrooms, library, kitchen, WiFi/internet, TV, air conditioning, a gaming console, and home theater with a stock of movies.

Joke of the Day…” Jan 2 ..Feb 2…” !!!

An Antartian died and went to heaven. When he got to the pearly gate Saint Peter told him that new rules were in effect due to the advances in education on earth. In order to gain admittance a prospective heavenly soul must answer three questions:

1. Name two days of the week that begin with “T”.

2. How many seconds are in a year?

3. What is God’s first name?

The Antartian thought for a few minutes and answered…

1. The two days of the week that begin with “T” are Today and Tomorrow.

2. There are 12 seconds in a year.

3. God has two first names, and they are Andy and Howard.”

Saint Peter said, “OK, I’ll buy the Today and Tomorrow, even though it’s not the answer I expected, so your answer is correct.

But how did you get 12 seconds in a year, and why did you ever think that God’s first name was either Andy or Howard?”

The Antartian replied, “Well, January 2nd, February 2nd,March 2nd, etc….”

“OK, I give,” said Saint Peter, “but what about the God’s first name stuff?”

The Antartian said, “Well, from the song….Andy walks with me, Andy talks with me, Andy tells me I am his own…, and the prayer…Our Father, who art in heaven, Howard be thy name….”

Saint Peter let him in without another word.

This 8 Year old Woos Cyber Experts…Meet Reuben Paul !!!

He may not be old enough to open a Facebook account, but has a tip or two about how Internet users can protect their content from hackers. This and much more found mention in eight-year-old Reuben Paul’s keynote address on the second day of a summit on cyber security held here.

On Children’s Day, Reuben’s presentation also focussed on online threats faced by millions of children using the Internet across the world. He discussed various aspects like cyber bullying, exposure to undesirable content and falling prey to hacking.

The large audience, which listened to him with rapt attention, was not only exclusively adult but comprised renowned cyber experts and even policy-makers.

Most of them said that Reuben not only impressed them with his repository of knowledge but also his skills and style.

The audience were treated to a display of Reuben’s secondary skills – his deftness of Kung Fu, something he has been learning for a while.

Hailed as a prodigy, Reuben even serves as the CEO of a company that develops Apps which help children learn mathematics, science and, of course, cyber security.

It all began at the age of five, said father Mano Paul – an expert on cyber security himself who travels across the globe delivering lectures on the subject.

Mr. Paul, who hails from Tamil Nadu and was living in Orissa before migrating to the United States nearly a decade ago, said Reuben was drawn to computers instinctively and his sheer inquisitiveness had won him worldwide reputation.

His mother Sangeetha said his aptitude to learn doesn’t stop at computers and Kung Fu.

“He goes for swimming, gymnastics, piano and hockey lessons. He also plans to join cooking and basketball classes from next year,” she said.

So does it affect his grades? “He is an A-lister,” she said, adding that a balance between studies and other activities was maintained by going for one activity per day.
