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 symbolizes Love."
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 they meet love...they try to posses it, they demand, they expect... and just like the water spilling out of your hand, love will retrieve from you.
For love is meant to be free, you cannot change its nature. 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 those who you love, and yet an unconditional caring.

We all Dream. What's so interesting ???
Its the possibility of a dream come true that makes life interesting.
- Paulo Coelho
Yes we all dream. some with closed eyes and some with open. Few are those whose dreams don't let them sleep. Each moment of life is associated with a dream. The dreams are broken,people ae shaken and what hey get out of it they call experience.
As an Info Security Professional my job was to mitigate Risks. Fortunately I applied the learnt principles for machines and processes and not for life. And today I am a proud man who says
"Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience."

Go GET IT... Don't Quit!!!
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and its turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When they might have won, had they stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit!

We have brains!!!!!
It was a sports stadium.Eight Children were standing on the track to participate in a running event.* Ready! * Steady! * Bang !!!With the sound of Toy pistol,All eight girls started running. Hardly had they covered ten to fifteen steps, when one of the smaller girls slipped and fell down, Due to bruises and pain she started crying.When the other seven girls heard the little girl cry they stopped running, stood for a while and turned back.Seeing the girl on the track they all ran to help. One among them bent down, picked her up and kissed her gently And enquired as to how she was. They then lifted the fallen girl pacifying her.Two of them held her firmly while all seven joined hands together and walked together towards the winning post...There was pin drop silence at the spectator's stand.Officials were shocked.Slow claps multiplied to thousands as the spectators stood up in appreciation. Many eyes were filled with tearsYES. This happened in Hyderabad [INDIA], recently!The sport was conducted by National Institute of Mental Health.All these special girls had come to participate in this event They were spastic children.Yes, they were Mentally Challenged.What did they teach the WORLD?Teamwork?Humanity?Equality among all??We can't do this ever because we have brains!
