Mother's undying love

After his father's death, the son decided to leave his mother at an old age home and visited her on and off.

Once he received a call from the old age home. "Your mom is in a very serious condition, please come and visit her."

So the son went and saw that his mom was very critical and on her dying bed.

He asked, "Mom what can I do for you?"

Mom replied, "Please install fans in the old age home, as there are none. Also put a fridge for betterment of food because many times I slept without food."

The son was surprised and asked, "Mom, while you were here you never complained, but now you have few hours left and you are telling me all this, why?"

Mom replied, "It's OK dear, I've managed with the heat, hunger and pain, but when your children send you here, I'm afraid you will not be able to manage!"

A Wise Man with a Great Attitude

A man of 92 years, short, very well-presented, who takes great care in his appearance, is moving into an old people's home today.

After waiting several hours in the retirement home lobby, he gently smiles as he is told that his room is ready.

His wife of 70 has recently died, and he is obliged to leave his home.

As he slowly walks to the elevator, using his cane, I describe his small room to him, including the sheet hung at the window which serves as a curtain.

"I like it very much," he says, with the enthusiasm.

"Sir, you haven't even seen the room yet, hang on a moment, we are almost there."

"That has nothing to do with it," he replies.

"It is already decided in my mind that I like my room. It is a decision I take every morning when I wake up.

Happiness is something I choose in advance. Whether or not I like the room does not depend on the furniture, or the decor - rather it depends on how I decide to see it.

I can choose. I can spend my day in bed enumerating all the difficulties that I have with the parts of my body that no longer work very well, or I can get up and give thanks to heaven for those parts that are still in working order.

Every day is a gift, and as long as I can open my eyes, I will focus on the new day, and all the happy memories that I have built up during my life.

Old age is like a bank account. You withdraw in later life what you have deposited along the way."

So, my advice to you is to deposit all the happiness you can in your bank account of memories.

Thank you for your part in filling my account with happy memories, which I am still continuing to fill...

Remember these simple guidelines for happiness:
1. Free your heart from hate.
2. Free your mind from worry.
3. Live simple.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.

Poem: The World is Mine

-Author unknown-

Today, upon a bus, I saw a very beautiful woman
and wished I were as beautiful.
When suddenly she rose to leave,
I saw her hobble down the aisle.
She had one leg and used a crutch.
But as she passed, she passed a smile.
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.
I have two legs; the world is mine.

I stopped to buy some candy.
The lad who sold it had such charm.
I talked with him, he seemed so glad.
If I were late, it'd do no harm.
And as I left, he said to me,
"I thank you, you've been so kind.
It's nice to talk with folks like you.
You see," he said, "I'm blind."
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.
I have two eyes; the world is mine.

Later while walking down the street,
I saw a child I knew.
He stood and watched the others play,
but he did not know what to do.
I stopped a moment and then I said,
"Why don't you join them dear?"
He looked ahead without a word.
I forgot, he couldn't hear.
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.
I have two ears; the world is mine.

With feet to take me where I'd go,
With eyes to see the sunset's glow,
With ears to hear what I'd know.
Oh, God, forgive me when I whine,
I've been blessed indeed, the world is mine.

Salute WOMAN

A woman:
changes her name
changes her home
leaves her family
moves in with you
builds a home with you
gets pregnant for you
pregnancy changes her body
she gets fat
almost gives up in the labour room due to the unbearable pain of child birth
even the kids she delivers bear your name
She did all these routine activities till the day she dies...
everything she does...cooking, cleaning your house, taking care of your parents, bringing up your children, earning, advising you, ensuring you can be relaxed, maintaining all family relations, everything that benefit you...
Sometimes at the cost at her own health, hobbies and beauty.
So who is really doing whom a favour?
Dear men, appreciate the women in your lives always, because it is not easy to be a woman.

WOMAN means:
W - Wonderful mother
O - Outstanding friend
M - Marvelous daughter
A - Adorable sister
N - Nicest gift to men from God

Wise piece of advice

Husbands, love your wife well!
Your children are noticing how you treat her.
You are teaching your sons how to treat women,
and you are teaching your daughters what they should expect from men.
