Now I know that

THE THINGS PEOPLE IN LOVE DO TO EACH OTHER

THEY REMEMBER .....

IF THEY STAY TOGETHER ITS NOT BECAUSE THEY FORGET

BUT

ITS BECAUSE THEY FORGIVE

Behavior .....

Try to do unto others as you would have them do to you,

and do not be discouraged if they fail sometimes.

It is much better that they should fail than you should."

Lonliness .....

Loneliness,
it is dark,
sad,
scary.
Like being lost in the woods,
and
never being found.
Never cared for,
never thought of,
never seen.
Physically separated,from the rest of the world. . .

forever.

Like the old master said . Be a lake !

The old Master instructed the unhappy young man to put a handful of salt in a glass of water and then to drink it.

"How does it taste?"the Master asked. "Awful," spat the apprentice.The Master chuckled and then asked the young man to take another handful of salt and put it in the lake. The two walked in silence to the nearby lake and when the apprentice swirled his handful of salt into the lake, the old man said, "Now drink from the lake."As the water dripped down the young man's chin, the Master asked, "How does it taste?" "Good!" remarked the apprentice. "Do you taste the salt?" asked the Master. "No," said the young man.The Master sat beside this troubled young man, took his hands, and said, "The pain of life is pure salt; no more, no less. The amount of pain in life remains the same, exactly the same. But the amount we taste the 'pain' depends on the container we put it into. So when you are in pain, the only thing you can do is to enlarge your sense of things ..... Stop being a glass. Become a lake!"

Seena dehak raha hoo tu kiya chup rahay koi
Kiyun chekh chekh kar na gala cheel lay koi

Sabit hooaa sakoon e Dil o Jaan kaheen nahin
rishtoon mai dhoondta hai tu dhoonda karay koi

Tark e Taluqat koi masla nahin
Ye tu woo rasta hai k bas chal paray koi

Deewar janta tha mai jissay mai woo dhool thee
Ab mujh ko aitamad ki dawat na day koi

Mai khud ye chahta hoon k halat hoon kharab
Meray khilaf zehar ugalta phiray koi

Aa shakhs ! ab tu mujko sabhi kuch qabool hai
Ye bhi qabool hai k tujhay cheen lay koi

Haan theek hai mai apni ana ka mareez hoon
Aakhir meray mizaj mai kiyun dakhal day koi

Aaik shakhs kar raha hai abhi tak wafa ka zikr
Kash uss zaban daraz ka moo nooch lay koi

We, Each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment

When we're incomplete, we're always searching for somebody to complete us.
When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we're still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising.
This can go on and on--series polygamy--until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives,

-----> we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment <-----

Nobody else can provide it for us, and to believe otherwise is to delude ourselves dangerously and to program for eventual failure every relationship we enter.”

The seven habbits of highly effective people

The Seven Habits Of Highly Effective People
Steven Covey

Habit 1: Be Proactive
Are my actions based upon self-chosen values or upon my moods, feelings, and circumstances?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Habit 2: Begin With The End In Mind
Have I written a personal mission statement which provides meaning, purpose, and direction to my life? Do my actions flow from my mission?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Habit 3: Put First Things First
Am I able to say no to the unimportant, no matter how urgent, and yes to the important?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Habit 4: Think Win-Win
Do I seek mutual benefit in all interdependent relationships?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Habit 5: Seek First To Understand, Then Seek To Be Understood
Do I avoid autobiographical responses and instead faith-fully reflect my understanding of the other person before seeking to be understood?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Habit 6: Synergize
Do I value different opinions, viewpoints, and perspectives of others when seeking solutions?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Habit 7: Sharpen The Saw
Am I engaged in continuous improvement in the physical, mental, spiritual, and social/emotional dimensions of my life?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There's one sad truth in life I've found
While journeying east and west -
The only folks we really wound
Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know,
We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.
