Men Are Just Happier People...:)

What do you expect from such simple creatures? Your last name stays put. The garage is all yours. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Chocolate is just another snack. You can be President. You can never be pregnant. You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park. You can wear NO shirt to a water park.

Car mechanics tell you the truth.. The world is your urinal. You never have to drive to another gas station rest-room because this one is just too icky. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. Same work, more pay. Wrinkles add character. Wedding dress Rs. 5000. People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. One mood all the time. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat. You know stuff about tanks. A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase. You can open all your own jars. You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.

If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. You almost never have strap problems in public. You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes. Everything on your face stays its original color. The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.You only have to shave your face and neck.You can play with toys all your life. Your belly usually hides your big hips. One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one color for all seasons. You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look. You can "do" your nails with a pocket knife. You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache. You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

Phewww..... No wonder men are happier. :)

Getting perspective

I read this article somewhere and wanted to share it with all of you...

No matter what difficulties you encounter, you can benefit from clearing your mind so that your true inner voice is revealed. There are several ways of gaining this focus, including physical exercise, meditation, breathing exercises, yoga, and others. The exercise below involves a more active form of mediation that will quickly clear out the noise in your head to leave you with a knowingness that can guide you to right action in your relationships and throughout your life.

Step 1:Get yourself in a comfortable sitting position.

Step 2:Picture a chord that goes around your waist and into the center of the earth. This is your grounding chord. Feel the weight of it pull you down into the earth, so that you are connected to it.

Step 3:Picture green light coming from the earth — the earth's energy, moving slowly from your feet, to your knees, and finally arriving at your stomach. Imagine that it starts a swirling motion in your center.

Step 4:Now picture white light coming from above, shining down on you and moving through the crown of your head, to your shoulders, flowing down your arms and also down your spine and to your stomach, where it mixes with the green light you brought up from the earth.

Step 5:Imagine a flow of light moving down the grounding chord and into the earth, and let it carry away all the things you are worried about, all the conflicts you have. Picture them in full life form and then watch as they wash away in the flood of light that leaves your body.

Step 6:Once you have done this for some time, picture the rest of the light from your stomach moving up to leave through the crown of your head, finishing the clearing of your energy. That means you can stop drawing in light or energy from the earth and from above you.

Step 7:Sit in quiet relaxation for a few minutes, noting what it is like to be in a body that is clear and a mind that is without worries and anxiety. If worries come back at you, just note that they are there, and watch as they flow right past you without bothering you a bit.

Step 8:Now you are ready to look at whatever issue you are dealing with, or to attend to any
questions you might have.

For example, if you are not sure about the person you are with, ask yourself: Are they right for you? Is this relationship having a positive effect on your life? Is this person being fair? Are you? This is the time to ask yourself all the questions that have been creating tension for you. Sit patiently and wait as your higher self tells you the answers.

Spiritually Speaking…

How many times have you felt a sense of complete despair? How many times do you feel your life’s not going anywhere and that some direction would be appreciated? How many times do you feel a need for Supreme intervention?
Remember, when the world pushes you to your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray…

Before I move on, I would like to warn anyone who does not believe in God, to not go any further. This piece of work, kind sire’, was not written for you. So please go ahead and find some thing else to read, No offense taken!

I am a strong believer. I believe there is a Supreme Being out there, who takes care of all of us. Who’s stronger than any of us; and looking at the things we do. I have a superstitious belief that he’ll know when I am being bad. I know you think it’s just my “Conscience”! But it’s not my conscience alone, believe me you- it’s far more than that. When I am doing “Something I shouldn’t be doing”; my conscience is supposed to make me feel guilty right? But then when events happen that wouldn’t have happened otherwise, you have to believe there is someone taking account of what you’re doing.

I don’t say everything we do is controlled by this someone. There obviously is a system of “Free Will”; but just as certainly there is, what I call the control system. Metaphorically speaking, we are like a cow tied to a tree by a rope, and can go just about anywhere till the rope permits; but only till that. The ultimate control is with someone else. So he’ll allow you to make your mistakes, but will not allow you to go way beyond what’s in your destiny.

So the question I'm getting at is, if he controls what I do and knows what I’m meant to do, why can’t he make life easier for me and show me the way when I am feeling a sense of despair…. When will he lead me on to "my" direction? When will he really intervene?
