A Series - Just A Thought

[anilrana]

An old man, staying in a small south Indian town came to visit his son in Bombay recently. The son in his early thirties is a successful businessman living with his wife and son. The father, having spent most of his life at his birthplace, hardly understands a splatter of
Hindi or English, forget Marathi. But he doesn't care. 'I have come here to spend a few days with my son and his family. I don't have to go out and socialize with the city people,' he said.

But the son is very excited about his father's rare visit to Bombay. He wants to make the best of it. He and his wife want to show him around the city. And yes, the son enjoys those evening hours too, when he and his father go out and sit in a good bar, sipping their
favorite drink.

Last week he was in a very good mood. 'Let's go to a five star hotel's bar tonight,' he told his father. It was a beautiful evening. Talking about everything under the sun they had a few drinks. As usual they were offered some salad, peanuts, wafers etc .as accompaniments with
their drinks. The old man being almost toothless was not much interested in eating. But that day when they got up to leave, he simply took a handful of chana (roasted grams) and stuffed it in the fold of his dhoti. He might have thought about munching on them, sitting in the car, or whatever.

Unfortunately while walking in the lobby, he missed a step and stumbled. Down he went, scattering the chana on the plush carpet.

No problem .Now try to visualize that scenario. Someone else in his son's place would have been mortified, embarrassed to death. He might have cursed not his father but his own self for causing this awkward situation. 'Never again will I take my old man to such hotels', he would have vowed. No sir, not this son. Gently, with a smile, he helped his father get back on his feet. Instead of feeling irritated or angry, he was amused. He found the whole incident very funny. Laughing, they both went home and on the way they decided to return to the same place the following Sunday.

The old man liked the place and liked the chana too.

Few days back, at a friend's place they both described this event and made everybody laugh. Weren't you embarrassed? Somebody asked the son. 'Oh, ....come on....... now' replied the son. 'He is my father. He talks in his native language, prefers to wear a dhoti even to a posh city hotel, takes chana from the bar to eat later, does whatever he feels like....So what?
Why should I feel embarrassed with his nature and habits? Nobody has a right to stop him from doing whatever he feels comfortable with, as long as it is not harmful to others.'

The son doesn't care what the staff in the hotel thought about that incident. He says 'they should be concerned only with their bills and tips. I am concerned about my father's happiness.' The wife too totally agrees with the husband on this issue. She feels there are
enough other qualities in her father- in- law to feel proud of. Accept them .The above incident is not mentioned just to show the love and devotion of a son for his father. More than love it is a matter of understanding and a healthy respect for the other person's lifestyle.

A seventy plus old man doesn't want to change his lifestyle now. He likes the way he eats or dresses or talks. In his eyes there is nothing wrong with the old ways of living. And the son says, ok, fine.Every body has a right to live as per his wish. Now at his age, why should he be forced to learn to eat with a fork and knife, if he doesn't want to? I will feel bad if he is doing something morally wrong or indulging in some harmful activities. But otherwise it is fine. I am not going to try to change him at this stage. He is my father. I love him, respect him.

Hey folks, can you think this way? So many times we see people getting embarrassed by the so called unsophisticated behavior of their family members. They keep on apologizing about their lack of class and manners or about their drawbacks to outsiders. My wife can't speak
proper English; she doesn't know what's happening in the world, so I avoid taking her out or introducing her to my friends and business associates... My parents can't eat with a spoon and fork, so I don't take them to restaurants My husband is working as an ordinary clerk,
so I feel awkward when I introduce him to my rich friends. My brother is mentally challenged, so I don't feel like going out with him...

Are you plagued with such thoughts or do you meet such people who think alike? If you do, please ask yourself. Why do others or I feel this way? Really what is there to feel ashamed of? Most of the people always have this fear of other peoples' opinions and comments. What
would others say?

Nothing.. You are what you are..

[Sure]

Aapne kati oolta sa,

We are happy and comfortable with all sorts of situations not only at a small town Dhaba (where we behave gentle) to seven star hotel (where we behave more Desi) or in any club/VIP lounge with all family members including kids to my Mother when Daddy is not around.

When Daddy is around, it’s different; everyone has to be complete gentle with loads of table manner. Every act is accounted, monitored, not pointed but guided with strict code of discipline. Kids, we brothers and our mother is not comfortable at all, only comfortable are our wives who want to see us in this form and want situation to be continue as longer as this can be.
Let me mentioned very clearly, every one of us want to enjoy life and family relations like what described by Anil as above instance, but every family is playing with different wonders with in family. Being a son of Armed Forces Person I know things are differing from the normal lives of other societies

A professor at CCNY for a physiological psych

Class told his class about bananas. He said the expression "going bananas" is from the effects

Of bananas on the brain.. Read on:

Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!!
This is interesting..
After reading this, you'll never look

At a banana in the same way again.

Bananas contain three natural sugars -

Sucrose, fructose and glucose combined

With fiber. A banana gives an instant,

Sustained and substantial boost of energy.

Research has proven that just two bananas

Provide enough energy for a strenuous

90-minute workout. No wonder the banana

Is the number one fruit with the world's

Leading athletes.

But energy isn't the only way a banana can

Help us keep fit. It can also help overcome

Or prevent a substantial number of illnesses

And conditions, making it a must to add to

Our daily diet.

Depression: According to a recent survey

Undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering

From depression, many felt much better after

Eating a banana. This is because bananas

Contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the

Body converts into serotonin, known to make

You relax, improve your mood and generally

Make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin

B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels,

Which can affect your mood.

Anemia : High in iron, bananas can stimulate the

Production of hemoglobin in the blood and so

Helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is

Extremely high in potassium yet low in salt,

Making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So

Much so, the US Food and Drug Administration

Has just allowed the banana industry to make

Official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the

Risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham

(Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped

Through their exams this year by eating bananas

At breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost

Their brain power. Research has shown that

The potassium-packed fruit can assist learning

By making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in

The diet can help restore normal bowel action,

Helping to overcome the problem without

Resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of

Curing a hangover is to make a banana

Milkshake, sweetened with honey. The

Banana calms the stomach and, with the

Help of the honey, builds up depleted blood

Sugar levels, while the milk soothes and

Re-hydrates your system.


Heartburn:

Bananas have a natural antacid

Effect in the body, so if you suffer from

Heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas

Between meals helps to keep blood sugar

Levels up and avoid morning sickness

Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the

Insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected

Area with the inside of a banana skin.. Many

People find it amazingly successful at

Reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins

That help calm the nervous system.


Overweight and at work? Studies at the

Institute of Psychology in Austria found

Pressure at work leads to gorging on

Comfort food like chocolate and chips.

Looking at 5,000 hospital patients,

Researchers found the most obese were

More likely to be in high-pressure jobs.

The report concluded that, to avoid

Panic-induced food cravings, we need to

Control our blood sugar levels by snacking

On high carbohydrate foods every two hours

To keep levels steady.

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary

Food against intestinal disorders because of

Its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only

Raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in

Over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes

Over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating

The lining of the stomach.

Temperature control: Many other cultures

See bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can

Lower both the physical and emotional

Temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand ,

For example, pregnant women eat bananas to

Ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas

Can help SAD sufferers because they contain

The natural mood Enhancer tryptophan.

Smoking &Tobacco Use: Bananas can also

Help people trying to give up smoking. The B6,

B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and

Magnesium found in them, help the body recover

From the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which

Helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen

To the brain and regulates your body's water

balance.. When we are stressed, our metabolic

rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels.

These can be rebalanced with the help of a

high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in The New

England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas

as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of

death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives

swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a

piece of banana skin and place it on the wart,

with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the

skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

Amazing fruit !!! So, a banana really is a

natural remedy for many ills.. When you

compare it to an apple, it has four times

the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three

times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin

A and iron, and twice the other vitamins

and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and

is one of the best value foods around So

maybe its time to change that well-known

phrase so that we say, "A banana a day

keeps the doctor away!"

PASS IT ON TO YOUR FRIENDS
PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys

are so happy all the time! I will add one

here; want a quick shine on our shoes??

Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and

rub directly on the shoe....polish with

dry cloth.. Amazing fruit !!!

My wife called, 'How long will you be with that newspaper? Will you come
here and make your darling daughter eat her food?'

I tossed the paper away and rushed to the scene. My only daughter Sindu
looked frightened.

Tears were welling up in her eyes. In front of her was a bowl filled to its
brim with Curd Rice. Sindu is a nice child, quite intelligent for her age.
She has just turned eight. She particularly detested Curd Rice. My mother
and my wife are orthodox, and believe firmly in the 'cooling effects' of
Curd Rice! I cleared my throat, and picked up the bowl.

'Sindu, darling,why don't you take a few mouthful of this Curd Rice? Just
for Dad's sake, dear.

Sindu softened a bit, and wiped her tears with the back of her hands.

'OK, Dad. I will eat - not just a few mouthfuls, but the whole lot of this.

But, you should...' Sindu hesitated. 'Dad, if I eat this entire curd Rice,
will you give me whatever I ask for?'....

Oh sure, darling'.... 'Promise?'......... 'Promise'.

I covered the pink soft hand extended by my daughter with mine, and clinched
the deal.

'Ask Mom also to give a similar promise', my daughter insisted.

My wife put her hand on Sindu's, muttering 'Promise'. Now I became a bit
anxious. 'Sindu dear, you shouldn't insist on getting a computer or any such
expensive items. Dad does not have that kind of money right now. OK?'

'No, Dad. I do not want anything expensive'.

Slowly and painfully, she finished eating the whole quantity.
I was silently angry with my wife and my mother for forcing my child eat
something that she detested. After the ordeal was through, Sindu came to me
with her eyes wide with expectation. All our attention was on her.

'Dad, I want to have my head shaved off, this Sunday!' was her demand.

'Atrocious!' shouted my wife, 'A girl child having her head shaved off?
Impossible!' 'Never in our family!' my mother rasped.

'She has been watching too much of television. Our culture is getting
totally spoiled with these TV programs!'

Sindu darling, why don't you ask for something else? We will be sad seeing
you with a clean-shaven head.'

'No, Dad. I do not want anything else', Sindu said with finality.

'Please, Sindu, why don't you try to understand our feelings?'

I tried to plead with her.

'Dad, you saw how difficult it was for me to eat that Curd Rice'.

Sindu was in tears. 'And you promised to grant me whatever I ask for.

Now, you are going back on your words. Was it not you who told me the story
of King Harishchandra, and its moral that we should honor our promises no
matter what?'

It was time for me to call the shots.
'Our promise must be kept.'
'Are you out your mind?' chorused my mother and wife.

'No. If we go back on our promises, she will never learn to honor her own.

Sindu, your wish will be fulfilled.'

With her head clean-shaven, Sindu had a round-face, and her eyes looked big
and beautiful.

On Monday morning, I dropped her at her school. It was a sight to watch my
hairless Sindu walking towards her classroom. She turned around and waved. I
waved back with a smile. Just then, a boy alighted from a car, and shouted,
'Sinduja, please wait for me!'

What struck me was the hairless head of that boy.
'May be, that is the in-stuff', I thought. 'Sir, your daughter Sinduja is
great indeed!' Without introducing herself, a lady got out of the car, and
continued,' That boy who is walking along with your daughter is my son
Harish. He is suffering from... ... leukemia.' She paused to muffle her
sobs.

Harish could not attend the school for the whole of the last month. He lost
all his hair due to the side effects of the chemotherapy. He refused to come
back to school fearing the unintentional but cruel teasing of the
schoolmates.

'Sinduja visited him last week, and promised him that she will take care of
the teasing issue.

But, I never imagined she would sacrifice her lovely hair for the sake of my
son! Sir, you and your wife are blessed to have such a noble soul as your
daughter.'

I stood transfixed. And then, I wept. 'My little Angel, you are teaching me
how self-less real love is!'

*The happiest people on this planet are not those who live on their own
terms but are those who change their terms for the ones whom they love..*
Love Touch And Inspire your FRIENDS "The life is short, the vanities of
world are transient but they alone live who live for others; the rest are
more dead than alive.

An article worth reading and if possible following for the betterment of our children&Grand children.
WHY ARE THE JEWS SO SMART?
By Dr. Stephen Carr Leon

Since I spent about 3 years in Israel for internship in few hospitals there, it came to my mind about doing research of "Why the Jews are Intelligent?"

It goes without denial that Jews are ahead in many aspects of life such as engineering, music, science and most obvious in business where nearly 70% of world trade is held by the Jews such as cosmetic, fashion, food, arms, hotels and film industries (Hollywood and others).
During the 2nd year, in December 1980, and I was about to go back to California, this idea came to me and I was wandering why God gave this ability to them? Is this a coincidence or is it man-made that could be produced like the goods from a factory. My thesis took about 8 years to gather all the information as accurately as possible, like the food intake, culture, religion, initial preparation of pregnancy and etc and I would compare them with other races.
Let’s start with initial preparation of pregnancy. In Israel, the first thing I noticed is that the pregnant mother would always sing and play piano and would always try to solve mathematical problems together with the husband, and I was very surprised to see the mother always carry math books and sometimes I would help her to solve some problems, I would asked, "Is this for your child in the womb?" she would answer "Yes to train the child still in the womb so that it would be a genius later on". She would solve the problem without let-up until the child is born.
Another thing I noticed, is about the food, she loved to eat almonds and dates with milk, for lunch she would take bread and fish without the head, salads mixed with almonds and other nuts, they believed fish is good for the development of brain and the fish’s head is bad for the brain. And also it is like the culture of the Jews for pregnant mothers to take cod liver oil.
When I was invited for dinner, I always noticed that they always like to eat fish (flesh and fillet) and no meat, according to their belief, meat and fish together will not give any benefit to our body. Salad and nuts is a must, especially almonds.

They would always eat fruits first before the main meal. Their belief if you eat the main meal first (like bread or rice) then fruits, this will make us feel sleepy and difficult to understand any lesson you learn in school.

In Israel, smoking is a taboo, if you are their guest, don’t smoke in their house, they would politely ask you to go out for a smoke. According to scientist in university of Israel, nicotine would destroy the main cell in our brain and will affect the genes and DNA, resulting in generation of moron or defective brain. So all those smokers, please take note (Ironically, the biggest producer of cigarettes is… you know who.. make your own guess).

The food intake for the child is always under the guidance of the parent, first, the fruits with almonds, followed by cod liver oil. In my assessment, the Jewish child, most of them knew 3 languages, ie Hebrew, Arabic and English, since childhood they would be trained in playing piano and violin, it is a must.

Accordingly, it is believed that this practice will increase the IQ of the child and will make him a genius. And according to Jewish scientist, the vibration of music would stimulate the brain and that is why there are lots of geniuses among the Jews…
Since grade 1 to 6, they would be taught business mathematics and science subjects would be their first preference. For comparison I could see the children in California, their IQ is about 6 years back. And Jewish children were also involved in athletics such as archery and shooting, accordingly it is believed that archery and shooting would make the brain more focused on decision and precision.

In high school, students are more inclined to study science, they would create products, indulged in all sorts of projects , although some looks very funny or useless, but all attention is given seriously especially if it is armaments, medicine or engineering, the idea will be introduced in higher institute in polytechnics or universities.

Business faculty will be given more preference, in the last year of university, the students in business would be given a project and practically they can only pass if their group (about 10 in a group) can make profit of USD1 million.

Don’t be surprised, this is the reality and that is why half of the business in the world is held by the Jews, who design the latest Levis, it is being designed in the Israel university by the faculty of business and fashion.
Have you seen them how they prayed, they always shake their heads, accordingly they believed this action will stimulate and provide more oxygen to the brain.
Look at the Japanese, they always bow down their heads as their culture, lots of them are smart, they love sushi (fresh fish), is this a coincidence?
In New York, the commercial/trading centre for the Jews are based in New York, catering for the Jews only, if they had any beneficial idea, their committee will give free interest loan and will make sure the business prosper. Due to this, Starbucks, dell computer, Coca Cola, DKNY, Oracle, Levis, Dunkin Donut , Hollywood films and hundreds other businesses were under their sponsorship.

Jewish graduates from faculty of medicine in New York were encouraged to register with them and allowed to practice privately with this free interest loan, now I knew why most hospital in New York and California always lack of specialist doctors.
Smoking will lead to generations of moron. During my visit to Singapore in 2005, it surprised me to see smokers are regarded as outcasts and the price of a pack of cigarettes is about USD 7, like in Israel it is a taboo and their form of government is similar to the Israelis. And that is the reason why most of their universities are of high standard, even though Singapore is only as big as Manhattan.
Look at Indonesia, everywhere people are smoking, and price of a pack of cigarette is very cheap only USD0.70 cents. and the results with millions of people, you can count the number of universities, what technology or product they produced that they can be proud of,…never!; can they speak other than their own language, why it is so difficult for them to master English language for example, all this is due to smoking, think for yourself.
In my thesis, I do not touch religion or race. The bottom line is, could we produce intelligent generations just like the Jews?

The answer could be in the affirmative. The changes needed are in our daily habits of eating, parenting and I guess within 3 generations, it could be achieved. This I could observe in my grandson, for example at the age of 9 he could write a 5-page essay on "Why I love tomato?"

May all of us be in peace and succeeded in producing a future generations of genius for the betterment of humankind no matter who you are.

An Indian tourist walks into a curio shop in San Francisco. Looking around at the exotic, he notices a very lifelike, Life-sized bronze statue of a rat. It has no price tag, But is so striking he decides he must have it.
He takes it to the owner: "How much for the bronze rat?" "Twelve dollars for the rat, one hundred dollars for the Story," says the owner.

The tourist gives the man twelve dollars. "I'll just take the rat,you can keep the story." As he walks down the street carrying his bronze rat, He notices that a few real rats crawl out of the alleys and sewers and begin following him down the street. This is disconcerting; he begins walking faster. But within a couple of blocks, the herd of rats behind him grows to hundreds, and they begin squealing. He begins to trot toward the Bay, looking around to see that the rats now numbered in the MILLIONS, and are still squealing and coming towards him faster and faster.

Concerned, even scared, he runs to the edge of the Bay and throws the bronze rat as far out into the Bay as he can. Amazingly, the millions of rats all jump into the Bay after it, and are all drowned.
The man walks back to the curio shop.
"Ah ha," says the owner, "You have come back for the Story?"

[Sure]

A series, just a thought on mentioned Gadgets.
Necessity is mother of invention, If Need is not as must need and only possess Want with in, this spoils basic instincts of human beings. Though every gadgets have its own importance mentioned here, do we really need these to spoil us or to enhance our life style this point must be considered first to go for gadgets. Think about day clock, how stupid we are going to be, Think about infant pillow, whoom we are making fool?

[anilrana]

Thanks Surender, for the lesson in English but the fact remains that as mentioned below, the Day Clock is very useful. Please note that it is not for people of your or my age but for people in their golden years of life. At that stage dates are not important but days are, for example a person needs to know what medication or type of food one needs to eat according to directions given by a physician. Meaning different medicine or food for different days like Monday, Tuesday etc.

"DAY CLOCK

What day is today? You don't know? Then you need a Day Clock. It's uniquely designed to keep track of weekly events like your golf day, card night, movie night, and so much more. It's ideal for vacations and cruises when it's easy to lose track of the day.

Particularly good for retirees!! "

not at all boss

----my mom is typical small town woman

she has this notion---delhi has hi fi life style n all that

after begging for years------i finally convinced her to visit me in delhi

n just like the guy in story----i was so excited---i took 2 days leaves

we went to malls---finest restaurant-----n their she was feeling shy---they way of eating

i just told her mom-----just give a damn about these people-----n enjoy food-----they would get their biil n tip--n that's it

n while trying clothes n all that------she was like ----chkng price tag----making faces n all that

but that was just the first time--------now whenever she visits me-----she is more exciting in going to malls n finest places than before

i guess we being kids---have to help them ----in getting rid of shyness

PS--she does not get on to escalators , she is a bit scared, so instead of pushing her for this , i always make sure we go places where we have staircase n not many floors. Or at times i stop the escalator , people watch-but I care damn about them




An old man, staying in a small south Indian town came to visit his son in Bombay recently. The son in his early thirties is a successful businessman living with his wife and son. The father, having spent most of his life at his birthplace, hardly understands a splatter of
Hindi or English, forget Marathi. But he doesn't care. 'I have come here to spend a few days with my son and his family. I don't have to go out and socialize with the city people,' he said.

But the son is very excited about his father's rare visit to Bombay. He wants to make the best of it. He and his wife want to show him around the city. And yes, the son enjoys those evening hours too, when he and his father go out and sit in a good bar, sipping their
favorite drink.

Last week he was in a very good mood. 'Let's go to a five star hotel's bar tonight,' he told his father. It was a beautiful evening. Talking about everything under the sun they had a few drinks. As usual they were offered some salad, peanuts, wafers etc .as accompaniments with
their drinks. The old man being almost toothless was not much interested in eating. But that day when they got up to leave, he simply took a handful of chana (roasted grams) and stuffed it in the fold of his dhoti. He might have thought about munching on them, sitting in the car, or whatever.

Unfortunately while walking in the lobby, he missed a step and stumbled. Down he went, scattering the chana on the plush carpet.

No problem .Now try to visualize that scenario. Someone else in his son's place would have been mortified, embarrassed to death. He might have cursed not his father but his own self for causing this awkward situation. 'Never again will I take my old man to such hotels', he would have vowed. No sir, not this son. Gently, with a smile, he helped his father get back on his feet. Instead of feeling irritated or angry, he was amused. He found the whole incident very funny. Laughing, they both went home and on the way they decided to return to the same place the following Sunday.

The old man liked the place and liked the chana too.

Few days back, at a friend's place they both described this event and made everybody laugh. Weren't you embarrassed? Somebody asked the son. 'Oh, ....come on....... now' replied the son. 'He is my father. He talks in his native language, prefers to wear a dhoti even to a posh city hotel, takes chana from the bar to eat later, does whatever he feels like....So what?
Why should I feel embarrassed with his nature and habits? Nobody has a right to stop him from doing whatever he feels comfortable with, as long as it is not harmful to others.'

The son doesn't care what the staff in the hotel thought about that incident. He says 'they should be concerned only with their bills and tips. I am concerned about my father's happiness.' The wife too totally agrees with the husband on this issue. She feels there are
enough other qualities in her father- in- law to feel proud of. Accept them .The above incident is not mentioned just to show the love and devotion of a son for his father. More than love it is a matter of understanding and a healthy respect for the other person's lifestyle.

A seventy plus old man doesn't want to change his lifestyle now. He likes the way he eats or dresses or talks. In his eyes there is nothing wrong with the old ways of living. And the son says, ok, fine.Every body has a right to live as per his wish. Now at his age, why should he be forced to learn to eat with a fork and knife, if he doesn't want to? I will feel bad if he is doing something morally wrong or indulging in some harmful activities. But otherwise it is fine. I am not going to try to change him at this stage. He is my father. I love him, respect him.

Hey folks, can you think this way? So many times we see people getting embarrassed by the so called unsophisticated behavior of their family members. They keep on apologizing about their lack of class and manners or about their drawbacks to outsiders. My wife can't speak
proper English; she doesn't know what's happening in the world, so I avoid taking her out or introducing her to my friends and business associates... My parents can't eat with a spoon and fork, so I don't take them to restaurants My husband is working as an ordinary clerk,
so I feel awkward when I introduce him to my rich friends. My brother is mentally challenged, so I don't feel like going out with him...

Are you plagued with such thoughts or do you meet such people who think alike? If you do, please ask yourself. Why do others or I feel this way? Really what is there to feel ashamed of? Most of the people always have this fear of other peoples' opinions and comments. What
would others say?

Nothing.. You are what you are..

i do not hurt any one feelings

( specially banana ki)

i do not like banana at all ( use to hate karna chahti thi---but koi nahi)

since childhood----yeh dimag mei baitha hua hai

banana toh bandar khata hai







Eating a banana. This is because bananas

Contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the

Body converts into serotonin, known to make

You relax, improve your mood and generally

Make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin

B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels,

Which can affect your mood.

Anemia : High in iron, bananas can stimulate the

Production of hemoglobin in the blood and so

Helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is

Extremely high in potassium yet low in salt,

Making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So

Much so, the US Food and Drug Administration

Has just allowed the banana industry to make

Official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the

Risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham

(Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped

Through their exams this year by eating bananas

At breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost

Their brain power. Research has shown that

The potassium-packed fruit can assist learning

By making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in

The diet can help restore normal bowel action,

Helping to overcome the problem without

Resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of

Curing a hangover is to make a banana

Milkshake, sweetened with honey. The

Banana calms the stomach and, with the

Help of the honey, builds up depleted blood

Sugar levels, while the milk soothes and

Re-hydrates your system.


Heartburn:

Bananas have a natural antacid

Effect in the body, so if you suffer from

Heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas

Between meals helps to keep blood sugar

Levels up and avoid morning sickness

Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the

Insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected

Area with the inside of a banana skin.. Many

People find it amazingly successful at

Reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins

That help calm the nervous system.


Overweight and at work? Studies at the

Institute of Psychology in Austria found

Pressure at work leads to gorging on

Comfort food like chocolate and chips.

Looking at 5,000 hospital patients,

Researchers found the most obese were

More likely to be in high-pressure jobs.

The report concluded that, to avoid

Panic-induced food cravings, we need to

Control our blood sugar levels by snacking

On high carbohydrate foods every two hours

To keep levels steady.

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary

Food against intestinal disorders because of

Its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only

Raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in

Over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes

Over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating

The lining of the stomach.

Temperature control: Many other cultures

See bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can

Lower both the physical and emotional

Temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand ,

For example, pregnant women eat bananas to

Ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas

Can help SAD sufferers because they contain

The natural mood Enhancer tryptophan.

Smoking &Tobacco Use: Bananas can also

Help people trying to give up smoking. The B6,

B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and

Magnesium found in them, help the body recover

From the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which

Helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen

To the brain and regulates your body's water

balance.. When we are stressed, our metabolic

rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels.

These can be rebalanced with the help of a

high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in The New

England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas

as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of

death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives

swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a

piece of banana skin and place it on the wart,

with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the

skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

Amazing fruit !!! So, a banana really is a

natural remedy for many ills.. When you

compare it to an apple, it has four times

the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three

times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin

A and iron, and twice the other vitamins

and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and

is one of the best value foods around So

maybe its time to change that well-known

phrase so that we say, "A banana a day

keeps the doctor away!"

PASS IT ON TO YOUR FRIENDS
PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys

are so happy all the time! I will add one

here; want a quick shine on our shoes??

Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and

rub directly on the shoe....polish with

dry cloth.. Amazing fruit !!![/QUOTE]

nice one

can a child be that kind - compassionate

I was toh so cruel in my childhood



My wife called, 'How long will you be with that newspaper? Will you come
here and make your darling daughter eat her food?'

I tossed the paper away and rushed to the scene. My only daughter Sindu
looked frightened.

Tears were welling up in her eyes. In front of her was a bowl filled to its
brim with Curd Rice. Sindu is a nice child, quite intelligent for her age.
She has just turned eight. She particularly detested Curd Rice. My mother
and my wife are orthodox, and believe firmly in the 'cooling effects' of
Curd Rice! I cleared my throat, and picked up the bowl.

'Sindu, darling,why don't you take a few mouthful of this Curd Rice? Just
for Dad's sake, dear.

Sindu softened a bit, and wiped her tears with the back of her hands.

'OK, Dad. I will eat - not just a few mouthfuls, but the whole lot of this.

But, you should...' Sindu hesitated. 'Dad, if I eat this entire curd Rice,
will you give me whatever I ask for?'....

Oh sure, darling'.... 'Promise?'......... 'Promise'.

I covered the pink soft hand extended by my daughter with mine, and clinched
the deal.

'Ask Mom also to give a similar promise', my daughter insisted.

My wife put her hand on Sindu's, muttering 'Promise'. Now I became a bit
anxious. 'Sindu dear, you shouldn't insist on getting a computer or any such
expensive items. Dad does not have that kind of money right now. OK?'

'No, Dad. I do not want anything expensive'.

Slowly and painfully, she finished eating the whole quantity.
I was silently angry with my wife and my mother for forcing my child eat
something that she detested. After the ordeal was through, Sindu came to me
with her eyes wide with expectation. All our attention was on her.

'Dad, I want to have my head shaved off, this Sunday!' was her demand.

'Atrocious!' shouted my wife, 'A girl child having her head shaved off?
Impossible!' 'Never in our family!' my mother rasped.

'She has been watching too much of television. Our culture is getting
totally spoiled with these TV programs!'

Sindu darling, why don't you ask for something else? We will be sad seeing
you with a clean-shaven head.'

'No, Dad. I do not want anything else', Sindu said with finality.

'Please, Sindu, why don't you try to understand our feelings?'

I tried to plead with her.

'Dad, you saw how difficult it was for me to eat that Curd Rice'.

Sindu was in tears. 'And you promised to grant me whatever I ask for.

Now, you are going back on your words. Was it not you who told me the story
of King Harishchandra, and its moral that we should honor our promises no
matter what?'

It was time for me to call the shots.
'Our promise must be kept.'
'Are you out your mind?' chorused my mother and wife.

'No. If we go back on our promises, she will never learn to honor her own.

Sindu, your wish will be fulfilled.'

With her head clean-shaven, Sindu had a round-face, and her eyes looked big
and beautiful.

On Monday morning, I dropped her at her school. It was a sight to watch my
hairless Sindu walking towards her classroom. She turned around and waved. I
waved back with a smile. Just then, a boy alighted from a car, and shouted,
'Sinduja, please wait for me!'

What struck me was the hairless head of that boy.
'May be, that is the in-stuff', I thought. 'Sir, your daughter Sinduja is
great indeed!' Without introducing herself, a lady got out of the car, and
continued,' That boy who is walking along with your daughter is my son
Harish. He is suffering from... ... leukemia.' She paused to muffle her
sobs.

Harish could not attend the school for the whole of the last month. He lost
all his hair due to the side effects of the chemotherapy. He refused to come
back to school fearing the unintentional but cruel teasing of the
schoolmates.

'Sinduja visited him last week, and promised him that she will take care of
the teasing issue.

But, I never imagined she would sacrifice her lovely hair for the sake of my
son! Sir, you and your wife are blessed to have such a noble soul as your
daughter.'

I stood transfixed. And then, I wept. 'My little Angel, you are teaching me
how self-less real love is!'

*The happiest people on this planet are not those who live on their own
terms but are those who change their terms for the ones whom they love..*
Love Touch And Inspire your FRIENDS "The life is short, the vanities of
world are transient but they alone live who live for others; the rest are
more dead than alive.

Jews know how to survive :

They made the arabs a laughing stock in 1961 war and 1972 war .... Mossad has hit teams in every arab country .... They cashed Indian defence market after Kargil .... They are just 8 million people and ruling this world in true sense .... Quality is always better then quantity .... Read about operation Entebbe . I really want to visit Israel once in my life




An article worth reading and if possible following for the betterment of our children&Grand children.
WHY ARE THE JEWS SO SMART?
By Dr. Stephen Carr Leon

Since I spent about 3 years in Israel for internship in few hospitals there, it came to my mind about doing research of "Why the Jews are Intelligent?"

It goes without denial that Jews are ahead in many aspects of life such as engineering, music, science and most obvious in business where nearly 70% of world trade is held by the Jews such as cosmetic, fashion, food, arms, hotels and film industries (Hollywood and others).
During the 2nd year, in December 1980, and I was about to go back to California, this idea came to me and I was wandering why God gave this ability to them? Is this a coincidence or is it man-made that could be produced like the goods from a factory. My thesis took about 8 years to gather all the information as accurately as possible, like the food intake, culture, religion, initial preparation of pregnancy and etc and I would compare them with other races.
Let’s start with initial preparation of pregnancy. In Israel, the first thing I noticed is that the pregnant mother would always sing and play piano and would always try to solve mathematical problems together with the husband, and I was very surprised to see the mother always carry math books and sometimes I would help her to solve some problems, I would asked, "Is this for your child in the womb?" she would answer "Yes to train the child still in the womb so that it would be a genius later on". She would solve the problem without let-up until the child is born.
Another thing I noticed, is about the food, she loved to eat almonds and dates with milk, for lunch she would take bread and fish without the head, salads mixed with almonds and other nuts, they believed fish is good for the development of brain and the fish’s head is bad for the brain. And also it is like the culture of the Jews for pregnant mothers to take cod liver oil.
When I was invited for dinner, I always noticed that they always like to eat fish (flesh and fillet) and no meat, according to their belief, meat and fish together will not give any benefit to our body. Salad and nuts is a must, especially almonds.

They would always eat fruits first before the main meal. Their belief if you eat the main meal first (like bread or rice) then fruits, this will make us feel sleepy and difficult to understand any lesson you learn in school.

In Israel, smoking is a taboo, if you are their guest, don’t smoke in their house, they would politely ask you to go out for a smoke. According to scientist in university of Israel, nicotine would destroy the main cell in our brain and will affect the genes and DNA, resulting in generation of moron or defective brain. So all those smokers, please take note (Ironically, the biggest producer of cigarettes is… you know who.. make your own guess).

The food intake for the child is always under the guidance of the parent, first, the fruits with almonds, followed by cod liver oil. In my assessment, the Jewish child, most of them knew 3 languages, ie Hebrew, Arabic and English, since childhood they would be trained in playing piano and violin, it is a must.

Accordingly, it is believed that this practice will increase the IQ of the child and will make him a genius. And according to Jewish scientist, the vibration of music would stimulate the brain and that is why there are lots of geniuses among the Jews…
Since grade 1 to 6, they would be taught business mathematics and science subjects would be their first preference. For comparison I could see the children in California, their IQ is about 6 years back. And Jewish children were also involved in athletics such as archery and shooting, accordingly it is believed that archery and shooting would make the brain more focused on decision and precision.

In high school, students are more inclined to study science, they would create products, indulged in all sorts of projects , although some looks very funny or useless, but all attention is given seriously especially if it is armaments, medicine or engineering, the idea will be introduced in higher institute in polytechnics or universities.

Business faculty will be given more preference, in the last year of university, the students in business would be given a project and practically they can only pass if their group (about 10 in a group) can make profit of USD1 million.

Don’t be surprised, this is the reality and that is why half of the business in the world is held by the Jews, who design the latest Levis, it is being designed in the Israel university by the faculty of business and fashion.
Have you seen them how they prayed, they always shake their heads, accordingly they believed this action will stimulate and provide more oxygen to the brain.
Look at the Japanese, they always bow down their heads as their culture, lots of them are smart, they love sushi (fresh fish), is this a coincidence?
In New York, the commercial/trading centre for the Jews are based in New York, catering for the Jews only, if they had any beneficial idea, their committee will give free interest loan and will make sure the business prosper. Due to this, Starbucks, dell computer, Coca Cola, DKNY, Oracle, Levis, Dunkin Donut , Hollywood films and hundreds other businesses were under their sponsorship.

Jewish graduates from faculty of medicine in New York were encouraged to register with them and allowed to practice privately with this free interest loan, now I knew why most hospital in New York and California always lack of specialist doctors.
Smoking will lead to generations of moron. During my visit to Singapore in 2005, it surprised me to see smokers are regarded as outcasts and the price of a pack of cigarettes is about USD 7, like in Israel it is a taboo and their form of government is similar to the Israelis. And that is the reason why most of their universities are of high standard, even though Singapore is only as big as Manhattan.
Look at Indonesia, everywhere people are smoking, and price of a pack of cigarette is very cheap only USD0.70 cents. and the results with millions of people, you can count the number of universities, what technology or product they produced that they can be proud of,…never!; can they speak other than their own language, why it is so difficult for them to master English language for example, all this is due to smoking, think for yourself.
In my thesis, I do not touch religion or race. The bottom line is, could we produce intelligent generations just like the Jews?

The answer could be in the affirmative. The changes needed are in our daily habits of eating, parenting and I guess within 3 generations, it could be achieved. This I could observe in my grandson, for example at the age of 9 he could write a 5-page essay on "Why I love tomato?"

May all of us be in peace and succeeded in producing a future generations of genius for the betterment of humankind no matter who you are.

Jews know how to survive :

They made the arabs a laughing stock in 1961 war and 1972 war .... Mossad has hit teams in every arab country .... They cashed Indian defence market after Kargil .... They are just 8 million people and ruling this world in true sense .... Quality is always better then quantity .... Read about operation Entebbe . I really want to visit Israel once in my life

Thats why I posted this here Sumit, this is the kind of people they are.

My wife called, 'How long will you be with that newspaper? Will you come
here and make your darling daughter eat her food?'

I tossed the paper away and rushed to the scene. My only daughter Sindu
looked frightened.

Tears were welling up in her eyes. In front of her was a bowl filled to its
brim with Curd Rice. Sindu is a nice child, quite intelligent for her age.
She has just turned eight. She particularly detested Curd Rice. My mother
and my wife are orthodox, and believe firmly in the 'cooling effects' of
Curd Rice! I cleared my throat, and picked up the bowl.

'Sindu, darling,why don't you take a few mouthful of this Curd Rice? Just
for Dad's sake, dear.

Sindu softened a bit, and wiped her tears with the back of her hands.

'OK, Dad. I will eat - not just a few mouthfuls, but the whole lot of this.

But, you should...' Sindu hesitated. 'Dad, if I eat this entire curd Rice,
will you give me whatever I ask for?'....

Oh sure, darling'.... 'Promise?'......... 'Promise'.

I covered the pink soft hand extended by my daughter with mine, and clinched
the deal.

'Ask Mom also to give a similar promise', my daughter insisted.

My wife put her hand on Sindu's, muttering 'Promise'. Now I became a bit
anxious. 'Sindu dear, you shouldn't insist on getting a computer or any such
expensive items. Dad does not have that kind of money right now. OK?'

'No, Dad. I do not want anything expensive'.

Slowly and painfully, she finished eating the whole quantity.
I was silently angry with my wife and my mother for forcing my child eat
something that she detested. After the ordeal was through, Sindu came to me
with her eyes wide with expectation. All our attention was on her.

'Dad, I want to have my head shaved off, this Sunday!' was her demand.

'Atrocious!' shouted my wife, 'A girl child having her head shaved off?
Impossible!' 'Never in our family!' my mother rasped.

'She has been watching too much of television. Our culture is getting
totally spoiled with these TV programs!'

Sindu darling, why don't you ask for something else? We will be sad seeing
you with a clean-shaven head.'

'No, Dad. I do not want anything else', Sindu said with finality.

'Please, Sindu, why don't you try to understand our feelings?'

I tried to plead with her.

'Dad, you saw how difficult it was for me to eat that Curd Rice'.

Sindu was in tears. 'And you promised to grant me whatever I ask for.

Now, you are going back on your words. Was it not you who told me the story
of King Harishchandra, and its moral that we should honor our promises no
matter what?'

It was time for me to call the shots.
'Our promise must be kept.'
'Are you out your mind?' chorused my mother and wife.

'No. If we go back on our promises, she will never learn to honor her own.

Sindu, your wish will be fulfilled.'

With her head clean-shaven, Sindu had a round-face, and her eyes looked big
and beautiful.

On Monday morning, I dropped her at her school. It was a sight to watch my
hairless Sindu walking towards her classroom. She turned around and waved. I
waved back with a smile. Just then, a boy alighted from a car, and shouted,
'Sinduja, please wait for me!'

What struck me was the hairless head of that boy.
'May be, that is the in-stuff', I thought. 'Sir, your daughter Sinduja is
great indeed!' Without introducing herself, a lady got out of the car, and
continued,' That boy who is walking along with your daughter is my son
Harish. He is suffering from... ... leukemia.' She paused to muffle her
sobs.

Harish could not attend the school for the whole of the last month. He lost
all his hair due to the side effects of the chemotherapy. He refused to come
back to school fearing the unintentional but cruel teasing of the
schoolmates.

'Sinduja visited him last week, and promised him that she will take care of
the teasing issue.

But, I never imagined she would sacrifice her lovely hair for the sake of my
son! Sir, you and your wife are blessed to have such a noble soul as your
daughter.'

I stood transfixed. And then, I wept. 'My little Angel, you are teaching me
how self-less real love is!'

*The happiest people on this planet are not those who live on their own
terms but are those who change their terms for the ones whom they love..*
Love Touch And Inspire your FRIENDS "The life is short, the vanities of
world are transient but they alone live who live for others; the rest are
more dead than alive.
