Birthday.............

Some of the things our human species boast on their birthday......

(1) Too much boozing mannn

(2) Sponsored a big party for my friends

(3) Prayed god that I never should get old.

(4) Just too much fun

(5) Went to Casino and lost 10,000 bucks

(6) Changed my hair style....

(7) Worried...Got another year old without achieving anything....Then had liquor and slept.....

(8) Hmmm...Nothing big...had a nice nap....

(9) Birthday is for cinema stars..not for us....

(10) I hate my birthdays..They keep on remembering me that I was stupid for another year ....

If you are one among this kind, can you please take a look at how much 0.1% of your gross income can contribute someone real happy ( Come on... I am not asking you to donate me some money !!!)?

Sometimes we are not even happy with our birthday...Even 100% increase in salary don''t make us feel happy...But I assure you, 0.1% of your annual income make someone real happy. Next question comes..Where we can spend 0.1%??..Family charity??? Spending for wife or kids??? :-)

Responsibly the answer is kids..Not your kids..kids who really needs money, resources, who strive for a "good one day meal".

Really your 0.1% will help? Let's say average USD 50,000 is someones earning. 0.1%

is 50 dollars (equivalent of Indian 2000 Rs). That should serve atleast 50 children one day meal or pay four children dresses or 50- meal day for a child and so on and so forth......

This 0.1% rule can be applied to' 'anyone who is willing to do'... If you are a student, don't bother now. But pls dont forget to remember 0.1% rule when you start to earn.

If you can do this, you can dignify yourself like this........"I made 10 kids more happier on my birthday"....................You decide what to do..

If some of you are already doing this, please spread the word / e-mail among your

"good" friends....Please remember "good friends"..................

A big time Inspiration.........

He is the guy I like most and He is one of my big time inspirations. My wife likes him the most. She likes him for the same reasons like me and fortunately He is the one who is very key in my marriage.

He is a great romantic guy and did lots of romance. He is the hero of a big story. He is one of the trickiest people who tricked so many of his enemies. He was very cool, calm and naughty. He was smart enough to fool several others and played several dramas. He is a great management guru and nicely manages people. He was a small thief even. People like him for whatever reasons he did. He is a great leader who fought against many odds even in his childhood for the welfare of others. He don't have any ego, helped his friends by being a servant, messenger. He was ready to help several people and gave them his hand whenever they needed help. He is a great philosopher. His philosophical lecture to his best friend is considered to be one of the holiest books. He claims himself to manifest this world.

I really don't know if he really existed and executed lot of heroism as said in his life history. But I like this character who is full of charm, energy and smartness. Many of my friends who know me, my big time inspiration will know the guy I am talking about. Others may know now. He is the one none other than Lord Krishna. Also, My wife hails from the Mathura, birthplace of Krishna.

Devdoss Day....

St. Valentine has nothing to do with romance. He was not even a Bachelor degree holder in romance making. But he was having an advance Masters Degree in spiritual love showering. He showered spiritual love and slowly it mutated into lovers day. It was then marketed from France to UK and from there to the rest of the world through our dear British conquerors.

I remember the day me and NSS (My CECRI friend) created when we were undergrads. It was called as Devdoss day, a day for the love losers or singles. For my non-Indian friends, Devdoss was a mysterical love losing character who lost his life after losing his heart. We tried celebrating the day on Feb-15. Only 5 people joined us and celebrated the day. In the Devdoss day, People who lost their love can wear black dresses and can exchange their wishes like “Happy single life” or “Happy singlet” Or “Let’s lose more” or they can exchange a book like “Men are from Mars and women are from Venus”.Unfortunately, the day was not marketed properly and could not withstand the air even inside CECRI.
