[Guest guest]

Sairam dear Brothers & Sisters,

 

I received this beautiful message from a friend and would like to share it with you all.

 

With love & light,

NO ONE IS PERFECTA man and his girlfriend were married. It was a large

celebration. All of their friends and family came to see the lovely ceremony

and to partake of the festivities and celebrations. A wonderful time was had by

all.The bride was gorgeous in her white wedding gown and the groom was very

dashing in his black tuxedo. Everyone could tell that the love they had for

each other was true.A few months later, the wife comes to the husband with a

proposal: "I read in a magazine, a while ago, about how we can strengthen our

marriage." she offered."Each of us will write a list of the things that we find

a bit annoying with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can fix

them together and make our lives happier together."The husband agreed. So each

of them went to a separate room in the house and thought of the things that

annoyed them about the other. They thought about this question for the rest of

the day and wrote down what they came up with.The next morning, at the

breakfast table, they decided that they would go over their lists."I'll start,"

offered the wife. She took out her list. It had many items on it. Enough to fill

3 pages, in fact. As she started reading the list of the little annoyances, she

noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husbands eyes."What's wrong?"

she asked. "Nothing" the husband replied, "keep reading your list."The wife

continued to read until she had read all three pages to her husband. She neatly

placed her list on the table and folded her hands over top of it."Now, you read

your list and then we'll talk about the things on both of our lists." She said

happily.Quietly the husband stated, "I don't have anything on my list. I think

that you are perfect the way that you are. I don't want you to change anything

for me. You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn't want to try and change

anything about you."The wife, touched by his honesty and the depth of his love

for her and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept.IN LIFE, there are

enough times when we are disappointed, depressed and annoyed. We don't really

have to go looking for them.We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty,

light and promise.Why waste time in this world looking for the bad,

disappointing or annoying things when we can look around us, and see the

wondrous things before us?I believe that WE ARE HAPPIEST WHEN we see and praise

the good and try our best to forego the mistakes of our loved ones. Nobody is

perfect but we can find perfection in them to change the way we see them. It is

necessary to understand the difficulties and be a helping hand to each

other....THAT BRIGHTENS THE RELATIONSHIP.Strength and Courage

It takes strength to be certain,It takes courage to have doubts.It takes

strength to fit in,It takes courage to stand out.It takes strength to share a

friend's pain,It takes courage to feel your own pain.It takes strength to hide

your own pain,It takes courage to show it and deal with it.It takes strength to

stand guard,It takes courage to let down your guard.It takes strength to

conquer,It takes courage to surrender.It takes strength to endure abuse,It

takes courage to stop it.It takes strength to stand alone,It takes courage to

lean on a friend.It takes strength to love,It takes courage to be loved.It

takes strength to survive,It takes courage to live."Destiny is not a matter of

chance, it is a matter of choice.""A man is not old until regrets take the

place of dreams""There are powers inside of you, which, if you could discover

and use, would make of you everything you ever dreamed or imagined you could

become.""Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of

throwing it at someone else; you are the one getting burned." -Buddha

Duty is God, Work is Worship
