Welcome July

Dear Friends   Time is precious, but truth is more precious than Time Love is precious, but trust is more precious than Love Family is precious,  but the way one care for each other  is more precious Friends are precious, but the one you miss and always stand by you  is more precious. All  relationships are precious, but the ones truly genuine and  not changing their colors are more precious.  Real gold never rusts.  If a relationship is really solid and golden, it will be unbreakable.  Not even Time can destroy its shine. Don't allow your heart to rust. Infuse love and care into your heart Let it shine like gold Welcome July Kind Regards

Eskil Rønningsbakken

Dear Friends Happy Thursday Eskil Rønningsbakken (born 24 June 1979) is an extreme artist from  Norway.  Rønningsbakken travels the world performing balancing acts at the tops of lethal drops, such as canyons and cliffs. His feats include tightrope walking between two hot air balloons in flight and doing a handstand on a pile of chairs balanced on a rock wedged in a crevice between two cliffs that were 3,500 feet tall.  He practices yoga, meditation, and breathing techniques to stay focused, and prepares extensively for each act.   Rønningsbakken joined the circus at the age of 12, but has been practicing in various forms since the age of five, where, as the youngest of three children, he spent his time in the Norwegian countryside climbing trees and playing on rooftops.  At an early age, when watching television, he was inspired by footage of an Indian yogi balancing, and decided to devote himself to the art.  He later improved his craft under the tutelage of Moscow State

Bollywood Film I saw

  Dear Friends Yesterday I watched the movie Jahan Ara Historical Movie. Jahan Ara was the daughter of emperor Shahjehan and Begum Mumtaz She was a poet and a great dancer. She sacrifices her love Jahan Ara is the 1964 Indian Hindi debut film of director Vinod Kumar. It stars Prithviraj Kapoor, Bharat Bhushan, Mala Sinha, Shashikala in lead roles. The film is a historical romance based on the life of Jahanara Begum, played by Mala Sinha. It was the first time this character was portrayed on-screen. The movie did not do well at the box office. Mirza Yusuf Changezi (Bharat Bhushan) and Jahan Ara (Mala Sinha) have been good friends since childhood. Things are not quite the same as they grow up, as Jahan Ara's father is none other than Emperor Shah Jahan, and men are not permitted to meet with the princess under any circumstances. However, Jahan and Mirza do meet secretly and promise to marry each other. Misfortune visits the emperor, when his wife, Mumtaz Mahal (Achala Sachdev), pa

Dress Decently

Dear Friends Happy Evening Two young ladies arrived at a meeting wearing clothes that were quite revealing their body. The chairman took a good look at them and asked them to take a sit. Then he said something that they might never forget in their life. He looked at them eye to eye and said; "Ladies, everything valuable that God made in this world is well covered and hard to find or get.  1. Where do you find DIAMONDS? Diamonds are down in the ground, covered and protected.  2. Where do you find PEARLS?  Pearls are deep down at the bottom of the ocean, covered up and protected in beautiful shell.  3. Where do you find GOLD?  Way down in the mine, covered and protected with layers of rocks and hard to get them. You need to work hard and dig deep down to get them.  He looked at them with serious eyes and said; "Your body is sacred, valuable and unique" You are far more precious than DIAMOND, PEARL or GOLD, and your body should be covered too.  So he added that,

BEN-HUR An old Classic Movie

Image
BEN-HUR! At the time of its release in 1959, MGMS's lavish quasi-biblical spectacle Ben-Hur was the most expensive film ever made, with a budget of nearly $16 million. The famed chariot race alone required an 18 acre set at Rome's Cinecitta Studios, a five week shooting schedule & 7,000 extras, won a record 11 Academy Awards. The chariot race in Ben-Hur was directed by Andrew & Yakima. The chariot arena covering 18 acres, was the largest film set ever built at that time. Constructed at a cost of $1 million, it took a thousand workmen more than a year to carve the oval out of a rock quarry. The racetrack featured 1,500-foot long straights & five-story-high grandstands. Over 400 km of metal tubing were used to erect the grandstands​.​ A chariot track identical in size was constructed next to the set & used to train the horses & lay out camera shots.Planning for the chariot race took nearly a year to complete. Seventy-eight horses were bought &

एक अद्भुत कहानी

*🔥होनी🔥* ☀️☀️✍️ एक गरीब आदमी बड़ी मेहनत से एक - एक रूपया जोड़ कर मकान बनवाता है.  उस मकान को बनवाने के लिए वह पिछले 20 वर्षों से एक - एक पैसा बचत करता है ताकि उसका परिवार छोटे से झोपड़े से निकलकर पक्के मकान में सुखी से रह सके. आखिरकार एक दिन मकान बन कर तैयार हो जाता है. तत्पश्चात पंडित से पूछ कर गृह प्रवेश के लिए शुभ तिथि निश्चित की जाती है.  लेकिन गृहप्रवेश के 2 दिन पहले ही भूकंप आता है और उसका मकान पूरी तरह ध्वस्त हो जाता है.  ओह बेचारे के साथ बहुत बुरा हुआ, कितनी मुश्किल से एक - एक पैसा जोड़कर मकान बनवाया था. इसी प्रकार लोग आपस में तरह तरह की बातें कर रहे थे.   वह आदमी वहां पहुंचता है और झोले से मिठाई निकाल कर सबको बांटने लगता है. यह देखकर सभी लोग हैरान हो जाते हैं.  तभी उसका एक मित्र उससे कहता है, कहीं तुम पागल तो नहीं हो गए हो !! घर गिर गया, तुम्हारी जीवन भर की कमाई बर्बाद हो गई और तुम खुश होकर मिठाई बांट रहे हो !? वह आदमी मुस्कुराते हुए कहता है, तुम इस घटना का सिर्फ नकारात्मक पक्ष देख रहे हो इसलिए इसका सकारात्मक पक्ष तुम्हें दिखाई नहीं दे रहा है. ये तो बहुत अच्छा हु

The Age Of Relationships*

Dear Friends * The Age Of Relationships* The story of four close friends from school, who studied in the same school up to SSC.  At that time, there was only one luxury hotel in the city. After the SSC exam, they decided that they should go to that hotel and have some tea and breakfast. The four of them could hardly collect forty rupees. It was a Sunday and all four of them reached the hotel by bicycle at ten-thirty. Dinesh, Santosh, Manish, and Praveen started talking while having breakfast and tea. All four of them decided unanimously, that they would meet again after 40 years in the same hotel on 1st April. "Till then we all should work very hard. It will be interesting to see how much progress has been made after 40 years," they discussed.  It was also decided that the last one to reach the hotel then, would have to pay the bill for that day.       Kalu, the waiter who served them tea and snacks, was listening to all this. He said, "If I stay here till th

Love ---A Poem

Dear Friends Enjoy your Evening Sharing a beautiful poem by Khalil Gibran on Love Love one another Love one another, but make not a bond of love. Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other's cup, but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread, but eat not from the same loaf. Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone. Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music. Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. For only the hand of life can contain your hearts. And stand together, yet not too near together. For the pillars of the temple stand apart. And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.

CHANGE THE WAY YOU SEE

  Dear Friends Happy Weekend I don’t have crow’s feet, I have happy happy memories of laughing with friends until the tears flowed. I don’t have frown lines, I have the marks of my frustration and confusion, which I battled through, smiling in the end. I am not going grey, I have shimmering highlights of wisdom, dashed throughout my silver hair. I don’t have scars, I have symbols of the strength I was able to find, when life got tough. I don’t have stretch marks, I have the marks of growth and the marks of motherhood. My womanly evolution. I am not fat, I bear the evidence of a life filled with abundance, blessings and good times. I am not just forgetful, I have a mind so full of stories, memories and moments there is scarce room to hold much else. I am not old, I am blessed, with a life of great length, something not everyone can say. Don’t change the way you look my friend, change the way you see, change the way you see.

दोस्तों *🌷सुख-दुःख🌷*    *एक बुजुर्ग आदमी स्टेशन पर गाड़ी में चाय बेचता है।गाड़ी में चाय बेच कर वो अपनी झोपड़ी में चला गया।* झोपड़ी में जा कर अपनी बुजुर्ग पत्नी से कहा कि दूसरी ट्रेन आने से पहले एक और केतली चाय की बना दो। दोनों बहुत बुजुर्ग है।आदमी बोला कि काश !! हमारी कोई औलाद होती, तो वो हमें इस बुढ़ापे में कमा कर खिलाती।औलाद ना होने के कारण हमें इस बुढ़ापे में भी काम करना पड़ रहा है।उसकी पत्नी की आँखों में आँसू आ गए।उसने चाय की केतली भर कर अपने पति को दे दी। बुजुर्ग आदमी चाय की केतली ले कर वापिस स्टेशन पर गया।उसने वहाँ प्लेटफॉर्म पर एक बुजुर्ग दंपती को सुबह से लेकर शाम तक बेंच पर बैठे देखा। वो दोनों किसी भी गाड़ी में चढ़ नही रहे थे।तब वो चाय वाला बुजुर्ग उन दोनों के पास गया और उनसे पूछने लगा कि आप ने कौन सी गाड़ी से जाना है ? मैं आप को बता दूंगा की आप की गाड़ी कब और कहां आयेगी ? तब वो बुजुर्ग दंपति बोले कि हमें कहीं नही जाना है।हमें हमारे *छोटे बेटे* ने यहां एक चिट्ठी दे कर भेजा है और कहा है कि हमारा *बड़ा बेटा* हमें लेने स्टेशन आएगा और अगर बड़ा बेटा ना पहुंचे तो इस चिट्ठी में जो पत

Sip your Tea

Dear Friends Happy Morning This is a powerful poem  on human friendship. Sip your Tea Nice and Slow No one Ever knows when it’s Time to Go, There’ll be no Time to enjoy the Glow, So sip your Tea Nice and Slow. Life is too Short but feels pretty Long, There’s too Much to do, so much going Wrong, And Most of the Time You Struggle to be Strong, Before it’s too Late and it’s time to Go, Sip your Tea Nice and Slow. Some Friends stay, others Go away, Loved ones are Cherished but not all will Stay. Kids will Grow up and Fly away. There’s really no Saying how Things will Go, So sip your Tea Nice and Slow. In the End it’s really all about understanding Love  For this World   and in the Stars above, Appreciate and Value who truly Cares, Smile and Breathe and let your Worries go, So Just Sip your Tea Nice and Slow." When I'm dead. Your tears will flow But I won't know Cry with me now instead. You will send flowers,  But I won't see Send them now instead You'll say

Dear Friends Sharing a Short story One day, as the Buddha was preaching, a man spat on and verbally abused him. What did the Buddha do? He remained very quiet and very still while the man continued his abusive tirade, in the end merely asking, 'Do you have anything else to say?' The following day, the same man came up to him, fell at his feet and begged forgiveness. The man said, 'All night long, I could not sleep for the abuses I hurled at Your Holiness. Please forgive me.' The Buddha replied, 'Forgive whom? For what? You are not the same person as the one who abused me yesterday. You have realised and changed. So, whom should I forgive? The 'you' of today needs no forgiving and the 'you' of yesterday is no longer with us. That which happened is like water in a river. It is long since gone, and the river is still flowing.' This is the Buddha's message: be calm and move on. Do not react. Be calm and move on. Let us be filled with

Stunning Green Birdflowers

Image
Dear Friends Happy afternoon In the northern half of Western Australia, you will find these stunning Green Birdflowers or ‘Crotalaria cunninghamii’ widely distributed from the coast to the deserts.  The species is a short-lived, small Australian native shrub with clusters of large chartreuse-green flowers looking like birds feeding on the central stem. The plants generally bloom from January to April, or even longer in its natural habitat, followed by velvety, club-shaped seed pods that rattle when shaken.
