Don't wait

Don't wait for a smile to be nice

Don't wait to be loved, to love

Don't wait to be lonely, to recognize the value of a friend

Don't wait for the best job, to begin to work

Don't wait to have a lot, to share a bit

Don't wait for the fall, to remember the advice

Don't wait for pain, to believe in prayer

Don't wait to have time, to be able to serve

Don't wait for anybody else's pain, to ask for apologies

... neither separation to make it up

Don't wait

Because you Don't know how long it will take

Will Inflation controllable.....DEFINITELY....it is in 'Our' HAND

This article very interesting
Pl go through it and pl spread this to all

Nice Logic - It May Work !!

A man eats two eggs each morning for breakfast. When he goes to the Kirana store he pays Rs. 12 a dozen. Since a dozen eggs won't last a week he normally buys two dozens at a time. One day while buying eggs he notices that the price has risen to Rs. 16. The next time he buys groceries, eggs are Rs. 22 a dozen.

When asked to explain the price of eggs the store owner says, "The price has gone up and I have to raise my price accordingly". This store buys 100 dozen eggs a day. He checked around for a better price and all the distributors have raised their prices. The distributors have begun to buy from the huge egg farms. The small egg farms have been driven out of business. The huge egg farms sell 100,000 dozen eggs a day to distributors. With no competition, they can set the price as they see fit. The distributors then have to raise their prices to the grocery stores. And on and on and on.

As the man kept buying eggs the price kept going up. He saw the big egg trucks delivering 100 dozen eggs each day. Nothing changed there. He checked out the huge egg farms and found they were selling 100,000 dozen eggs to the distributors daily. Nothing had changed but the price of eggs.

Then week before Diwali the price of eggs shot up to Rs. 40 a dozen. Again he asked the grocery owner why and was told, "Cakes and baking for the holiday". The huge egg farmers know there will be a lot of baking going on and more eggs will be used. Hence, the price of eggs goes up. Expect the same thing at Christmas and other times when family cooking, baking, etc. happen.

This pattern continues until the price of eggs is Rs. 60 a dozen. The man says, " There must be something we can do about the price of eggs"..

He starts talking to all the people in his town and they decide to stop buying eggs. This didn't work because everyone needed eggs.

Finally, the man suggested only buying what you need. He ate 2 eggs a day. On the way home from work he would stop at the grocery and buy two eggs. Everyone in town started buying 2 or 3 eggs a day.

The grocery store owner began complaining that he had too many eggs in his cooler. He told the distributor that he didn't need any eggs.
Maybe wouldn't need any all week.

The distributor had eggs piling up at his warehouse. He told the huge egg farms that he didn't have any room for eggs would not need any for at least two weeks.

At the egg farm, the chickens just kept on laying eggs. To relieve the pressure, the huge egg farm told the distributor that they could buy the eggs at a lower price.

The distributor said, " I don't have the room for the %$&^*&% eggs even if they were free". The distributor told the grocery store owner that he would lower the price of the eggs if the store would start buying again.

The grocery store owner said, "I don't have room for more eggs. The customers are only buying 2 or 3 eggs at a time. Now if you were to drop the price of eggs back down to the original price, the customers would start buying by the dozen again".

The distributors sent that proposal to the huge egg farmers but the egg farmers liked the price they were getting for their eggs but, those chickens just kept on laying. Finally, the egg farmers lowered the price of their eggs. But only a few paisa.

The customers still bought 2 or 3 eggs at a time. They said, "when the price of eggs gets down to where it was before, we will start buying by the dozen."

Slowly the price of eggs started dropping. The distributors had to slash their prices to make room for the eggs coming from the egg farmers.

The egg farmers cut their prices because the distributors wouldn't buy at a higher price than they were selling eggs for. Anyway, they had full warehouses and wouldn't need eggs for quite a while.

And those chickens kept on laying.

Eventually, the egg farmers cut their prices because they were throwing away eggs they couldn't sell. The distributors started buying again because the eggs were priced to where the stores could afford to sell them at the lower price.

And the customers starting buying by the dozen again.

Now, transpose this analogy to the gasoline industry.

What if everyone only bought Rs 200.00 worth of Petrol each time they pulled to the pump? The dealer's tanks would stay semi full all the time. The dealers wouldn't have room for the gas coming from the huge tanks.. The tank farms wouldn't have room for the petrol coming from the refining plants. And the refining plants wouldn't have room for the oil being off loaded from the huge tankers coming from the oil fiends.

Just Rs 200.00 each time you buy gas. Don't fill up the tank of your car. You may have to stop for gas twice a week, but the price should come down.

Think about it.

Also, don't buy anything else at the fuel station; don't give them any more of your hard earned money than what you spend on gas, until the prices come down..."

....just think of this concept for a while.

...................please pass this concept around....reaching out to the masses ...the world .....

The Washer man and the Foolish Donkey


Have you heard the story of The Washer man and the Foolish Donkey
There was once a washer man who had a donkey and a dog.
One night when the whole world was sleeping, a thief broke into the house,
the washer man was fast asleep but the donkey and the dog were awake.
The dog decided not to bark since the master did not take good care of him and wanted to teach him a lesson.
The donkey got worried and said to the dog that if he doesn't bark, the donkey will have to do something himself.
The dog did not change his mind and the donkey started braying loudly. Hearing the donkey bray,
the thief ran away, the master woke up and started beating the donkey for braying in the middle of the night for no reason.
Moral of the story: One must not engage in duties other than his own. One must learn to mind ones own business.
Now take a new look at the same story…
The washer man was a well educated man from a premier institute.
He had the fundas of looking at the bigger picture and thinking out of the box.
He was convinced that there must be some reason for the donkey to bray in the night.
He walked outside a little and did some fact finding, applied a bottom up approach,
figured out from the ground realities that there was a thief who broke in and the donkey only wanted to alert him about it.
Looking at the donkeys extra initiative and going beyond the call of the duty,
he rewarded him with lot of hay and other perks and became his favorite pet.
The dogs life didn't change much, except that now the donkey was more motivated in doing the dogs duties as well.
In the annual appraisal the dog managed a meets requirement .
Soon the dog realized that the donkey is taking care of his duties and he can enjoy his life sleeping and lazing around.
The donkey was rated as star performer. The donkey had to live up to his already high performance standards.
Soon he was over burdened with work and always under pressure and now is looking for a job rotation

Anger and Love has no limits...



While Dad was polishing his new car,
his 4 yr old son picked stone & scratched lines on the side of the car.
In his anger, Dad took the child's hand & hit it many times, not
realizing he was using a wrench.
At the hospital, his child said "Dad when will my fingers grow back?"
Dad was so hurt.
He went back to car and kicked it a lot of times.
Sitting back he looked at the scratches, child wrote "I LOVE YOU DAD"

Anger and Love has no limits...

Me and My Father



وأنا عمري 4 أعوام : أبي هو الأفضل

When I was 4 Yrs Old : My father is THE BEST

وأنا عمري 6 أعوام : أبي يعرف كل الناس

When I was 6 Yrs Old : My father seems to know everyone

وأنا عمري 10 أعوام : أبي ممتاز ولكن خلقه ضيق

When I was 10 Yrs Old : My father is excellent but he is short tempered

وأنا عمري 12عاما : أبي كان لطيفا عندما كنت صغيرا

When I was 12 Yrs Old : My father was nice when I was little

وأنا عمري 14 عاما : أبي بدأ يكون حساسا جدا

When I was 14 Yrs Old : My father started being too sensitive

وأنا عمري 16 عاما : أبي لا يمكن أن يتماشى مع العصر الحالي

When I was 16 Yrs Old : My father can't keep up with modern time

وأنا عمري 18 عاما : أبي ومع مرور كل يوم يبدو كأنه أكثر حدة

When I was 18 Yrs Old : My father is getting less tolerant as the days pass by

وأنا عمري 20 عاما : من الصعب جدا أن أسامح أبي ، أستغرب كيف استطاعت أمي أن تتحمله

When I was 20 Yrs Old : It is too hard to forgive my father, how could my Mum stand him all these years

وأنا عمري 25 عاما : أبي يعترض على كل موضوع

When I was 25 Yrs Old : My father seems to be objecting to everything I do

وأنا عمري 30 عاما : من الصعب جدا أن أتفق مع أبى ، هل ياترى تعب جدي من أبي عندما كان شابا

When I was 30 Yrs Old: It's very difficult to be in agreement with my father, I wonder if my Grandfather was troubled by my father when he was a youth

وأنا عمري 40 عاما: أبي رباني في هذه الحياة مع كثير من الضوابط، ولابد أن أفعل نفس الشيء

When I was 40 Yrs Old: My father brought me up with a lot of discipline, I must do the same

وأنا عمري 45 عاما : أنا محتار ، كيف أستطاع أبي أن يربينا جميعا

When I was 45 Yrs Old: I am puzzled, how did my father manage to raise all of us

وأنا عمري 50 عاما: من الصعب التحكم في أطفالي، كم تكبد أبي من عناء لأجل أن يربينا ويحافظ علينا

When I was 50 Yrs Old : It's rather difficult to control my kids, how much did my father suffer for the sake of upbringing and protecting us

وأنا عمري 55 عاما: أبي كان ذا نظرة بعيدة وخطط لعدة أشياء لنا ، أبي كان مميزا ولطيفا.

When I was 55 Yrs Old: My father was far looking and had wide plans for us, he was gentle and outstanding.

وأنا عمري 60 عاما: أبي هو الأفضل

When I became 60 Yrs Old: My father is THE BEST

جميع ما سبق إحتاج إلى 56 عاما لإنهاء الدورة كاملة ليعود إلى نقطة البدء الأولى عند الـ 4 أعوام .

Note that it took 56 Yrs to complete the cycle and return to the starting point "My father is THE BEST" !

فلنحسن إلى والدينا قبل أن يفوت الأوان ولندع الله أن يعاملنا أطفالنا أفضل مما كنا نعامل والدينا.

Let's be good to our parents before it's too late and pray to Allaah that our own children will treat us even better than the way we treated our parents .
