Time and Love

Once upon a time there was an island where all the feelings lived;
happiness, sadness, knowledge, and all the others, including love.

One day it was announced to all of the feelings
that the island was going to sink to the bottom
of the ocean. So all the feelings prepared
their boats to leave.

Love was the only one that stayed. She wanted
to preserve the island paradise until the last
possible moment. When the island was almost
totally under, love decided it was time to leave.

She began looking for someone to ask for help. Just then
Richness was passing by in a grand boat. Love asked,
"Richness, Can I come with you on your boat?"

Richness answered, "I'm sorry, but there is a lot of silver and gold
on my boat and there would be no room for you anywhere."
Then Love decided to ask Vanity for help who was passing in a
beautiful vessel. Love cried out, "Vanity, help me please.."
"I can't help you", Vanity said, "You are
all wet and will damage my beautiful boat."
Next, Love saw Sadness passing. Love said,
"Sadness, please let me go with you."

Sadness answered, "Love, I'm sorry but I just need to be alone now."

Then, Love saw Happiness. love cried out,
"Happiness, please take me with you."
But Happiness was so over overjoyed
that he didn't hear Love calling to him.

Love began to cry. Then she heard a voice say, "Come Love, I will take
you with me." It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that
she forgot to ask the elder his name. When they arrived on land the
elder went on his way. Love realized how much she owed the elder.

Love then found Knowledge and asked. "It was Time", Knowledge
answered. "But why did Time help me when no one else would?",
Love asked. Knowledge smiled and with deep wisdom and
sincerity, answered, "Because only Time is capable of
understanding how great Love is."

Points to Ponder

Image
No one can ruin your day without YOUR permission. Most people will be about as happy, as they decide to be. Others can stop you temporarily, but only you can do it permanently. Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have. Success stops when you do. When your ship comes in.... Make sure you are willing to unload it. You will never have it all together. Life is a journey...not a destination. Enjoy the trip! The biggest lie on the planet When I get what I want I will be happy. The best way to escape your problem is to solve it. I've learned that ultimately , 'takers' lose and 'givers' win. Life's precious moments don't have value, unless they are shared. If you don't start, it's certain you won't arrive. We often fear the thing we wan...

The Forest

Image
Take a walk in the forest and learn something more about yourself. 1. You're standing at the edge of a forest looking in. What do you see, how do you feel, what do you feel about what you see? 2. You walk into the forest and emerge at the other end. Here you see a field and notice a path. How many paths, if any, do you see? 3. You take one of the paths or quite possibly make your own. You notice a rose tree in the distance. There is a single rose, yet it is not like any rose you have ever seen before. It is the most beautiful rose you have ever seen! What do you do? 4. Walking along the path you stumble upon something. You turn around and notice that it's an old rusted key. What do you do? 5. Walking further, you stumble upon an old cup. What do you do? 6. It's noon and the sun is blazing hot. You come upon a crystal lake. It is mirror like and pristine. What do you do? 7. After the lake, you climb upon a hill. You can see a deep green valley, and a beautif...

Back SleeperWith arms and legs spread out: What a liberty-loving soul! Well, this posture reveals your true identity. Comfort-lover adn beauty-worshiper, you are also a real spendhrift (but luckily you earn just as much). your other undesirable trait is that you are a bit nosy and seem to enjoy gossiping. Well, who did you mention in your tales lately? Back Sleeper With legs crossed: Anyone who sleeps cross-legges is said to be self-obsessed and finds difficulty in accepting changes.

Yet sometimes you are filled with cranky ideas which people find hard to follow. You take good care of your Family,but the problem is you hardly love anybody. A little bir choosy, Huh?

Simple Warli Art

Image
I had always been fascinated by one painting which I had on my bedspread. It depicted the daily life of the rural people, almost similar to the Forest life. It looks somewhat similar to the cave paintings of early man which I had seen in certain text books. But this piece of art was very common in india on bed cover, cushion covers and even many book covers, many had this as it was simple and fascinating one. Then I found out, such paintings were called Warli paintings which basically used rice flour as a medium to make simple lines and geometric figures which looked amazing but still had simplicity in it. The myth t ha t if we u se complex colors and shape then only a piece of work would look great is proved wrong by these simple but beautiful paintings, which reflects the daily life and still look alive with all the forest activities. It is done through simple folk s ymbols drawn with bold, easy strokes with most minimal colors basically white since none is needed to draw a...

Happiness Voyage

Image
We convince ourselves that life will be better once we are married, have a baby, then another.Then we get frustrated because our children are not old enough, and that all will be well when they are older.Then we are frustrated because they reach adolescence and we must deal with them. Surely we’ll be happier when they grow out of the teen years.We tell ourselves our life will be better when our spouse gets his/her act together, when we have a nicer car, when we can take a vacation, when we finally retire.The truth is that there is no better time to be happy than right now.If not, then when?Your life will always be full of challenges. It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy in spite of it all. For the longest time, it seemed that life was about to start. Real life.But there was always some obstacle along the way, an ordeal to get through, some work to be finished, some time to be given, a bill to be paid. Then life would start.I finally came to understand that those ob...

The Mole on your face

Image
The Chinese Almanac, also known as the Tung Shu, is commonly known as a book of auspicious and inauspicious dates, but there is so much more to the Tung Shu than that. It is a vast mine of information relating to astrology, codes and symbols, derived by the wise sages and philosophers of ancient China. In this issue, we bring to you the secrets from the almanac regarding moles on your face and what they mean depending on which part of your face they appear. First, check your face for any moles, and then look at the diagram above to identify the number(s) that are a closest match to the moles on your face. Usually, the moles only hold meaning for you if they are prominent and they are the only one. If your face if full of spots, acne or "little" moles, they do not count.
