NICE ARTICLE ABOUT LOVE-by Swami Vivekananda
NICE ARTICLE ABOUT LOVE-by Swami Vivekananda
I once had a friend who grew to be very close to me.Once when we were sitting at the edge of a swimming pool,
she filled the palm of her hand with some water and held it before me,and
said this: "You see this water carefully contained on my hand?It symbolizesLove." This was how I saw it:
As long as you keep your hand caringly open and allow it to remain there, it will always be there.However, if you attempt to close your fingers round it and try to posses it, it will spill through the first cracks it finds.
This is the greatest mistake that people do when theymeet love...they try to posses it,
they demand, they expect...
andjust like the water spilling out of your hand,love will retrieve from you.
For love is meant to be free, you cannot change itsnature. If there are people you love,allow them to be free beings.Give and don't expect.Advise, but don't order.
Ask, but never demand.It might sound simple, but it is a lesson that may take a lifetime to truly practice.
It is the secret to true love.To truly practice it,you must sincerely feel no expectations from thosewhom you love,and
yet an unconditional caring."Passing thought... Life is not measured by the number of breaths wetake;but by the moments that take our breath away..... Life is beautiful!!! Live it !!!

Life
There are moments in life when you miss someone
so much that you just want to pick them from
your dreams and hug them for real!
When the door of happiness closes, another opens;
But often times we look so long at the
Closed door that we don't see the one,
Which has been opened for us
Don't go for looks; they can deceive.
Don't go for wealth; even that fades away
.Go for someone who makes you smile,
Because it takes only a smile to
Make a dark day seem bright.
Find the one that makes your heart smile.
Dream what you want to dream;
Go where you want to go;
Be what you want to be,
Because you have only one life
And one chance to do all the things
You want to do.
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet
Enough trials to make you strong,
Enough sorrow to keep you human and
Enough hope to make you happy.

Expectations
Once a boy went to a shop with his mother.
The shop keeper looked at the small cute child and showed him a bottle with sweets and said “Dear Child, you can take the sweets”. But the child didn’t take. The shop keeper was surprised. Such a small child he is and why is he not taking the sweets from the bottle. Again he said take the sweets. Now mother also heard that and said, “Take the sweets”. Yet he didn’t take.
The shopkeeper seeing the child not taking the sweets, he himself took the sweets and gave to the child. The child was happy to get two hands full of sweets.
When returned to home Mother asked child, “Why didn’t you take the sweets, when shop keeper told you to take?”
Can you guess the response?

Child replies, “Mom! My hands are very small and if I take the sweets I can only take few. But now you see when uncle gave with his big hands. How many more sweets I got!”
Moral:When we take we may get little but when God gives, he gives us more beyond our expectations, more than what we can hold.

value of ur life
A well known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?
"Hands started going up.
He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this."
He proceeded to crumple the dollar bill up.
He then asked, "Who still wants it?"
Still the hands were up in the air.
"Well," he replied, "What if I do this?"
And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe.
He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty.
"Now who still wants it?" Still the hands went into the air.
"My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lessonNo matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20.
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.We feel as though we are worthless.
But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. You are special -
Don't ever forget it!

Best explanation, why God allow pain and suffering
This is one of the best explanations of why God allows pain and suffering that I have seen. It's an explanation that other people should understand.
A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects.
When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said:
"I don't believe that God exists."
"Why do you say that?" asked the customer.
"Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn't exist. Tell me, if God exists,would there be so many sick people?
Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain.
I can't imagine loving a God who would allow all of these things.
"The customer thought for a moment, but didn't respond because he didn't want to start an argument.
The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop.
Just after he left the barbershop,he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard.
He looked dirty and un-kept.The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber:
"You know what? Barbers do not exist."
"How can you say that?" asked the surprised barber.
"I am here, and I am a barber.And I just worked on you!"
"No!" the customer exclaimed"Barbers don't exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside."
"Ah, but barbers DO exist! What happens is, people do not come to me."
"Exactly!"- affirmed the customer.
"That's the point! God, too, DOES exist!
What happens, is, people don't go to Him and do not look for Him
.That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."

God
People should be serious about where they are going, and why they are going there, and how they are going there. God cannot be desecrated. Every time we attempt it, we desecrate ourselves. God cannot be cheated. Every time we attempt it, we cheat ourselves. God cannot be lied to. Every time we attempt it, we lie to ourselves. Everything that you do to God, you do to yourself. If you ennoble Him, you ennoble yourself. If you divinise Him, you divinise yourself. If you love Him, that love comes back to yourself.

The five simple rules to be happy
A 92-year-old, well-poised and proud man, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with his hair fashionably coifed and shaved perfectly, even though he is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today. His wife of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready.
As he maneuvered his walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of his tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on his window.
"I love it," he stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.
"Mr. Jones, you haven't seen the room; just wait."
"That doesn't have anything to do with it," he replied.
"Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged ... it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it. "It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do.
Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open, I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away. Just for this time in my life.
Old age is like a bank account. You withdraw from what you've put in.
So, my advice to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories! Thank you for your part in filling my Memory bank. I am still depositing." Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.

Concentration
Concentration in one sense is the ability to take the essence of anything which you wish to know. So to know the essence of physical things, human beings and of the cosmic phenomena, the moment you are able to concentrate everything is revealed. It doesn't reveal only the good things and not the bad things. So when we want to learn to concentrate, we must be prepared to meditate first. Secondly we must be prepared to have the faith and the courage to see what is shown to us, not to be disturbed by it. Not to be attracted by the beauty that we see, not to be repelled by the ugliness that we may see. So concentration means the instant ability to draw the essence of anything upon which you apply your mind.
