Celebrate Life

Guys I got the following words through an email and I put this picture together with it to emphasize the importance of Life...hope you derive something out of it that may affect your life in some good way...read the whole thing it's quite profound.




~~Today before you think of saying an unkind word...think of someone who can't speak...
Before you complain about the taste of your food...think of someone who has nothing to eat...
Before you complain about your husband or wife...think of someone who's crying out to God for a companion...
Today before you complain about life...think of someone who went too early to heaven...
Before you complain about your children...think of someone who desires children but they're barren...
Before you argue about your dirty house; someone didn't clean or sweep...think of the people who are living in the streets...
Before whining about the distance you drive...think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet...
And when you are tired and complain about your job...think of the unemployed, the disabled and those who wished they had your job....
But before you think of pointing the finger or condemning another remember that not one of us are without sin and we all answer to one maker...
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down put a smile on your face and thank God you're alive and still around...~~

Life is a gift
Live it...
Enjoy it...
Celebrate it...
And fulfil it.

Awesome, both the post and Saby's thoughts:) I also somewhat agree to what Word_smith thinks. We are after all humans and such saintly habits or deeds are really hard to incorporate. However lets try to count our smiles, gains and joys instead of our tears, losses and woes and sure we'll be a better human being..

Superb post, World is still beautiful, it all depends how you see it. I am absolutely agreed with Saby on it. Yeah, we should see it as the glass half full, not half empty. We always say World is not heaven anymore, however we never think what is our contribution to make it heaven.

When people are lonely, depressed, or when they are angry it is because they are not fulfilling their own inner nature. When they are not fulfilling your own inner nature they tend to take it out on other people, they abuse other, they do things to each other that are mean, which is unfortunate, and it doesn’t solve their problem. I never have known anybody who was not good to other people, who was happy. So it tells me right there that that is not our true nature.

Whatever one person does, no matter where you are and no matter who you are, affects everything and everybody else on this entire planet. What that means is that we need each other. It also means that what I do is important to your life and what you do is important to my life. And the more that we understand that and the more that we recognize how related we are to each other the more everybody benefits.

So, we need to have vision, in order to see how what we do right here is going to affect someone somewhere else. Then World will be better place to live in.

Buddy, (refer USA Constitution)
dont agree ...
if evry body in dis world were to pursue his happiness .. we wud have happy ppl .... and happiness is contagious ... we dont want self -sacrificing ppl ... and social workers ... who expect recogniition and rewards .... doing good is its own reward .... if u hurt some one ..u just wont sleep well ....

why do we give to beggars? .. we feel guilty we have more than our share ... so we dole out money..... its not doing any good to the recepient ..it only eases yr conscience ..... as some guy said 'if u see a guy hungry dont give him fish to eat ... rather teach him to fish'

dat is why i dont really appreciate wat Mother Theresa did ....

a business man like Dhirubhai does more good than Mother Theresa ... by creating jobs ...

a businees man needs to do crooked deals too.... but he has the blessings of the employees and the share holders

Keshi said...

I agree with this but also I agree with deip (word_smith). It's not easy to celebrate life when things are real tough...as humans we tend to think abt ourselves, no matter how less the others may have...we always think about what we have and what we lost...it's our nature...and for someone who's gone through a great deal in life, this post may look silly...and my deepest apologies for that but I'm with u...I've been there, seen it all but I still want to bask in the magical rays of life...I dun wanna give up for life is beautiful if u let it be...

it's a human tendency that when a sorrow cums along,we feel that the worst has cum upon us.we only see that there are 4 persons above us but tend to forget that there are 5 below us as well.a child grieves at losing his parents when he is a teen and thinks how lucky r those children who hav caring parents but never does he think of those orphan children who havent seen their parents since birth.alas,it is human tendency to think that way.if he cud change this thinking,he wud definitely be able to lessen his grief a great deal.

Keshi said...

Yes anonymous I agree with you...but it's so hard for people to come to terms with serious loss of any sort. For eg u said that a child who loses his father forgets to realise that there are orphans out there with no parents at all since birth...but as humans we get used to things around us...in this case the child who lost his dad had a dad since birth and he is used to having him...he knows a father's love, he experienced it...and then suddenly for it to be taken away from him is a shock to his entire system...that's why people grieve and soem get depressed...but I know what you mean, if people can look around and try to realise what they have or had, compared to some people who never had any of it, then we are in bliss....

only the truly religious are in perpetual bliss

u gotta believe:

'jo hua accha hi hua
jo hone wala accha hi hoga'
- Gita

God u givest
and u takest away
Praise be to God !

- from the book of Job, Bible
PS: The Bible - old testament is the Book of Muslims and Jews too

God in His wisdom
He messes wid our lives some times, but
He nos wat is best for us

u may cuss God today
but later on hind sight
u will see wat He did was in yr best interest

a family was travelling to South
on train, their entire baggage was stolen

they had to dis-embark
dat was the day before the TSUNAMI hit

they later learnt dat their entire house was wiped away by the sea
evry body in the village perished

true story, i heard it first hand
