$ Serious stuff [Motivation]

Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it.He held it up for all to see & asked the students
"How much do you think this glass weighs?"
'50gms!' …. '100gms!' …..'125gms'..the students answered.
"I really don't know unless I weigh it," said the professor,
"but, my question is:What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?"
'Nothing' …..the students said.
'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the professor asked.
'Your arm would begin to ache' said one of the student
"You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?"
"Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress & paralysis & have to go to hospital for sure!" ….. ventured another student & all the students laughed
"Very good.But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?"asked the professor.
'No'…. Was the answer.
"Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress?"The students were puzzled.
"What should I do now to come out of pain?" asked professor again.
"Put the glass down!" said one of the students
"Exactly!" said the professor.

Life's problems are something like this.Hold it for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK. Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache.Hold it even longer & they begin to paralyze you. You will not be able to do anything.
It's important to think of the challenges or problems in your life, but EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to 'PUT THEM DOWN' at the end of every day before You go to sleep.
That way, you are not stressed, you wake up every day fresh &strong & can handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way!

So, When you leave office today,Remember friend to 'PUT THE GLASS DOWN TODAY!'

$ Letter 2 manager ?!? [Fun]

A MANAGER looking through his Mail Box was astonished to
see a mail from an Employee who was supposed to be
busy working at Client side on a critical project. It
had the subject - "TaTa - Bye Bye". With the worst
premonition he opened the mail and read the content
with trembling hands:-

Dear Sir,
It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing
you, but I'm leaving the job. The offer was too
lucritive and attractive for me to turn down. I had to
abscond because I wanted to avoid a scene with the HR
and you. I am sorry but I had no choice. The project
is working fine. There are only 108 issues pending,
out of which only 38% issues are High Priority. Hence
I am sure there is no need to worry about. The next
Phase of major enhancements I have been working upon,
have been completed halfway. I am sure the new person
who would replace me would not understand what all I
had done so far. Hence, for his and your convenience,
I have taken care to remove all the work that I had
been doing this far for nearly 3 months now. I am sure
you will appreciate my insight and "big heart".
I am ofcourse retaining the Originals that I had
retrieved for the purpose of Passport clrification
with me, considering it as a parting gift from you.
Ofcourse, I will not pay the bond amount that I owe
the compnay (since I Am breaking the bond). But I will
consider this as a parting gift from our Dear company.
I moving out of town since the new company is situated
in another City.
Also, I have changed my contact number. So you will
not be able to get in touch with me, to congratulate
me. But I know your blessings are always with me.
Last but not the least. I also have the 7000 Rs
entrusted to me by our company's cultural events
group, for the upcoming movie event. I am sure you
would have wanted me to keep it with myself as an
added bonus from our company. I respect you very much,
hence your wish is my command.
I thank you for that in advance, and assure you that I
will surely invest them wisely (but not in your
company's stocks of course). Don't worry sir. I am 2
years experienced now, learning so much from your
company. So I will surely use this knowledge to write
better programs for the new company.
Someday I'm sure we will meet sometime in the future.
If you wish, I will surely be glad to give my employee reference for you to apply for a job in the new company which I am joining.

Your faithful employee,
Config . Engineer


At the bottom of the page were the letters "PS". Hands
still trembling,the MANAGER read:

PS: Dearest Manager, none of the above is true. I'm am
still busy working at client side. I just wanted to
remind you that there are worse things in life than my
"Request to reconsider my Salary Appraisal" attached
with this mail. Please approve it and call when it is
safe for me to come to our Office to discuss this. My
respect and Best Regards to you!

$ Most Embarrassing Moment [Fun]

There was a World wide survey of "Most Embarrassing Moment in human life"

The finale had the following three incidents....



Third Place

"It was the day before my eighteenth birthday. I was living at home, but my parents had gone out for the evening, so I invited my girlfriend over for a romantic night alone. As we lay in bed after making love, we heard the telephone ringing downstairs. I suggested to my girlfriend that I give her a piggy-back ride to the phone. Since we didn't want to miss the call, we didn't have time to get dressed. When we got to the bottom of the stairs, the lights suddenly came on and a whole crowd of people yelled


"SURPRISE!".
My entire family, aunts, uncles, grandparents, cousins and all of my friends were standing there ! My girlfriend and I were frozen to the spot in a state ofshock and embarrassment for what seemed like an eternity. Since then, no-one in my family has planned a surprise party again



Second Place

"While in line at the bank one afternoon, my kid decided to release some pent-up energy and started to run amuck. I was finally able to grab hold of her after receiving looks of disgust and annoyance from other patrons. I told her that if she didn't start behaving herself right now, she would be punished. To my horror, she looked me in the eye and said in a voice just as threatening, "If you don't let me go right now, I will tell Grandma that I saw you kissing Daddy's pee-pee(dick) last night!". The silence was deafening after this enlightening exchange. Even the tellers stopped what they were doing! I mustered the last of my dignity and walked outof the bank with my daughter in tow. The last thing that I heard as the doorclosed behind me were the screams of laughter.



And the Winner is...

This one actually happened at Harvard University in October last year. In a biology class, the professor was discussing the high glucose levels found in semen.A young female , raised her hand and asked, "If I understand what you are saying, there is a lot of glucose in male semen, as in sugar?" "That's correct." responded the professor, going on to add much statistical data.Raising her hand again, the sweet young thing asked, "Then why doesn't it taste sweet?". After a stunned silence, the whole class burst out laughing, the poor girlturned bright red and as she realized exactly what she had inadvertently said(or rather implied), she picked up her books without a word and walked out of the class, and never returned.However, as she was going out of the door, the professor's reply was a classic. Totally straight-faced, he answered her question, "It doesn't taste sweet because the taste-buds for sweetness are on the tip of your tongue and not in the back of your throat!

$ Friendship [4 friends]

A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert During some point of the Journey they had an Argument, and one friend Slapped the other one In the face. The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE. They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him. After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE. The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why?" The other friend replied "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it." LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND AND TO CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE. They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them. Send this phrase to the people you'll never forget. If you don't send it to anyone, it means you're in a hurry and that you've forgotten your friends. Take the time to live! Do not value the THINGS you have in your life. But value WHO you have in your life!
