Never A Christmas Morning,
Never the Old Year ends...
But Someone thinks of Someone,
Old days...
Old times...
Old friends...

Sorry...!
Why do I always hurt you always?? maybe that’s the only thing I have ever done to you. I really feel that I am taking you for a ride. I don’t deserve you dear. If possible forgive me, but I am totally tired of the entire situation. You were right about me. Everyday I prove that to myself how true you were about me. Some day I want to prove myself how wrong I was to leave you...but by then it would be too late, and everything will be shattered!! That’s what I want!! But what to about this guilt...cant live with this guilt lifelong!!! how i wish this world to end right now!! I am tired of it... sorry dear... couldn’t keep up to my word!! you were right!

another gift of love... !
Today hadn’t been the best of my days....... for some reason unknown I wasn’t up to the mood. It seemed as if everything was irritating me and nothing seemed to go right.
Things like this often happen to me... for some reason somewhere... things start bothering me and I cant even find a clue to its root cause.
Today had been a similar day... things didn’t seemed to be on track anymore... and I couldn’t understand why!! From my childhood I have had this habit of talking to God or maybe some person who in my illusions has control over all the things. Today I had been talking to him again... why things are happening the way they are? Why cant things go the way we desire.. and if they cant go that way why do we desire them to be... in short why is life not easy...? why are we always in a fix? What to do what not to..........?
Then I came across this article of mountain wings. Read it twice... it goes as:
Cant say whether the tensions have been erased or not since I don’t exactly know what was bothering me... but yes... I feel better now... more at peace...
This is a phase, it will pass soon. If things work out according to my wishes... good! If don’t then even better as I know god’s wish is there.
Tomorrow is not far away... and its gonna be a bright one too. Another dawn... another day for me to win, another day to love, another day to live...

Baking A Cake
==============
A little boy is telling his Grandma how "everything" is going
wrong: school, family problems, severe health problems, etc.
Meanwhile, Grandma is baking a cake.
She asks her grandson if he would like a snack, which of course,
he does.
"Here, have some cooking oil."
"Yuck" says the boy.
"How about a couple of raw eggs?"
"Gross, Grandma!"
"Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?"
"Grandma, those are all yucky!"
To which Grandma replies: "Yes, all those things seem bad all by
themselves. But when they are put together in the right way,
they make a wonderfully delicious cake!
God works the same way.
Many times we wonder why He would let us go through such bad and
difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things
all in His order, they always work for good!
We just have to trust Him and eventually they will all make
something wonderful!"
God is Crazy About You.
He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning.
Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen. He can live anywhere
in the universe, and He chose your heart
Cant say whether the tensions have been erased or not since I don’t exactly know what was bothering me... but yes... I feel better now... more at peace...
This is a phase, it will pass soon. If things work out according to my wishes... good! If don’t then even better as I know god’s wish is there.
Tomorrow is not far away... and its gonna be a bright one too. Another dawn... another day for me to win, another day to love, another day to live...

Search for oneself
Love and Intimacy are ultimately based on understanding - the desire to understand, the need and the willingness to be understood. Vulnerability and trust are integral.
I felt that I was not very good at saying what needed to be said. Sometimes, words did not come out at all, only the tears did. Sometimes I felt like I wasn't understood. I wondered if it were me ..
Surrender: I was a battered rag doll that had been thrown out into the elements, exposed, naked, unfamiliar with feelings and emotions....Pain .., it was feeling.
The passing seasons: It had been Autumn. Walking in the crispness, lonely, but not alone, in my emptiness, I watched a small puppy frolicking in the colored leaves that heralded the bare branches and the coming frosty winds .. Winter, a wish had come true. Winter, a death of the past. Autumn had gone, the leaves had fallen, the snow was on the ground .. maybe Spring would come again ..

Scientists Find Soft Tissue in T-Rex Bone
...A 70-million-year-old Tyrannosaurus rex fossil dug out of a hunk of sandstone has yielded soft tissue, including blood vessels and perhaps even whole cells, U.S. researchers reported....
..."Preservation of this extent, where you still have this flexibility and transparency, has never been seen in a dinosaur before." Feathers, hair and fossilized egg contents yes, but not truly soft tissue....
...The finding certainly shows fossilization does not proceed as science had assumed...

Since it is impossible for organic matter to survive millions of years, doesn't this finding dismiss the notion of evolution? Seems like creationism is a better theory to explain everything.
Although, I never quite bought into evolution since it violated the first and second law of thermodynamics:
#1 Matter can neither be created or destroyed. If matter can't be created, then evolution can't be accurate. A creationists solution to this problem is a God that operates outside the realm of physics.
#2 Law of Entropy, that things go from order to increased disorder. The evolutionary theory states the opposite. Evolutionist argue creation came from a random act which lead to increasing sophisticated organisms and order.

Who discovered the "80-20 Rule"?
Vilfredo Pareto
Vilfredo Pareto, an Italian economist from the turn of the 20th century, noticed that 80% of the land in Italy was owned by 20% of the citizens. He further noticed that in general, income, wealth, land ownership, and other such economic things followed a similar distribution. He formalized this observation into "Pareto's Law", which states that distribution of wealth follows a logarithmic relationship:
Log N = log A + m ( log x )
Where N is the number of income earners who earn higher than x. A and m are constants, determined by the specific system under study. The 80-20 rule, also known as the "Pareto Principle", is a specific instance of this relationship.
Dr. Joseph Juran, management expert and quality pioneer, was the first to apply the 80-20 rule outside of economics, specifically applying it productivity, giving us the most popular statement of the 80-20 rule: 80% of the work is done by 20% of the workers.
Until recently, the 80-20 rule, or logarithmic distributions in general, were rarely studied outside the fields of economics or management theory. However, recent advances in network theory have found that Pareto's Law it is equally valid for a number of other systems, both naturally occurring and man-made systems, including molecular biology, the spread of viruses (both organic and cyber varieties), the organization of terrorist cells, the infrastructure of the Internet, the organization of the World Wide Web, and the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" phenomenon - a real phenomenon, although it is not unique to Kevin Bacon.
In any case, the next time you feel like you're doing 80% of the work, at least you can take comfort in knowing it's not just your imagination.

Meaning from the Silence of the space between the words:
The answers cannot be found in the words.
They can, however be found in the silence that embraces all sounds.
They can, however be found in the silence that embraces all sounds.
Finding a Meaning of Life in amongst the words
Words are sounds to which each of us ascribes our own personal meaning. Each individual sound breaks the silence like the clap of thunders breaks the stillness of the moment before a thunder storm. Yet after the storm, the sun comes out and life is renewed.
We, as a civilization, as a culture are obsessed with sounds .. and words. These words have a meaning which we only understand in terms of a feeling .. a resonance with some learned belief.
The meaning is embellished with emotions which are the consequences experienced from the use of words. If you swore in church as a child, you got a belting.
Philosophy and Spiritual Education is based on the shattered mind's need .. a search for a meaning from the mysteries of the past .. that there has to be something more to life than the conflict between what we are told to believe and what our experience is telling us is the way it is.
The search for a meaning is based on fear. Every philosophy, every religion, every individual doctrine embraced by the mind as a truth has its basis in fear.
One young lady wrote ... "the silence has been shattered by the sounds of students and teachers tearing the words to shreds looking for answers."
