Ponder a While. जरासा सोचिये।

You must have heard this advice n times before. You may also say it is ten or twenty years late to think about. .... still it may be useful, if not to you, but to somebody else you may know.

Somebody may say it is like the proverb "Grapes are sour." Such advice is given by people who are any way not earning as much money as they want. You can earn money and also have good relations with your family, friends and the society. They are not mutually exclusive. Just think about it.  

They say "The best thing about advice is to pass it on to somebody else" so I am doing it. You may also read and pass it on.


Ponder a While....Realistic...Interesting-Useful Thoughts in Life

Are we earning to pay builders and interior designers, caterers and decorators?
Whom do we want to impress with our highly inflated house properties and fat weddings?
Do you remember for more than two days what you ate at someone's marriage?
Why are we working so... so... hard in our prime years of life?
    How many generations do we want to feed?
    Most of us have two kids. Many have a single kid.
    How much is the "need" and how much do we actually "want"??
    Think about it.
    Would our next generation be incapable to earn, that we save so much for them!?!
Can't  we spare one and a half days a week for friends, family and self??
Do you spend even 5% of your monthly income for your self enjoyment?
Usually...No.  

Are we giving back part of our fortune to the Society, the Nature which gave so much in making our lives successful and prosperous, and the needy around, less fortunate?

Also why can't we enjoy simultaneously while we earn?
Spare time to enjoy before you have slipped discs and large prostates.
We don't own properties, we just have temporary name on documents.
GOD laughs sarcastically, when someone says,
     "I am the owner of this land"!!  

Do not judge a person only by the length of his car.
Many of our science and maths teachers were great personalities riding on scooters!!  
It is not bad to be rich, but it is very unfair, to be only rich.
Let's get a LIFE, before life gets us, instead....

A lovely little girl was holding two apples with both hands.
Her mum came in and softly asked her little daughter with a smile; my sweetie, could you give your mum one of your two apples?
The girl looked up at her mum for some seconds, then she suddenly took a quick bite on one apple, and then quickly on the other.
The mum felt the smile on her face freeze. She tried hard not to reveal her disappointment.
Then the little girl handed one of her bitten apples to her mum,and said: mummy, here you are. This is the sweeter one.
No matter who you are, how experienced you are, and how knowledgeable you think you are, always delay judgement. Give others the privilege to explain themselves. What you see may not be the reality. Never conclude for others.

Which is why we should never only focus on the surface and judge others without understanding them first.
Those who like to pay the bill, do so not because they are loaded but because they value friendship above money.
Those who take the initiative at work, do so not because they are stupid but because they understand the concept of responsibility.
Those who apologizes first after a fight, do so not because they are wrong but because they value the people around them.
Those who are willing to help you, do so not because they owe you any thing but because they see you as a true friend.
Those who often text you, do so not because they have nothing better to do but because you are in their heart.
Those who take out time to chat with you, does not mean they are jobless or less busy, but they know the importance of keeping in touch.
One day, all of us will get  separated  from each other; we will miss our conversations of everything & nothing; the dreams that we had.
Days will pass by, months, years, until this contact becomes rare... One day our children will see our pictures and ask 'Who are these people?' And we will smile with invisible tears  because a heart is touched with a strong word and you will say: "IT WAS THEM THAT I HAD THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE WITH".

एक चीनी धनवान मर गया और अपनी विधवाके लिये 190 अरब डालर छोड़ गया।
उसकी विधवाने उनके ड्राईवरसे शादी कर ली।
कुछ समय बाद उसकी बीवी भी मर गयी।
ड्राईवरने कहा" मैं... सारी उम्र ये सोचता रहा कि मैं अपने मालिको के लिए काम करता हूँ, लेकिन आज मुझे ऐसा लग रहा है कि मालिक लोग मेरे लिए काम करते थे"।

एक कटु सत्य:
जिंदगी ज्यादा उम्र तक जीना, स्वस्थ और सुखी रहना ज्यादा जरूरी है, बजाय इसके कि अधिक धन संचय किया जाये।
हम दौलत और शोहरत के पीछे भागते रहते हैं, और अपने मनका चैन खो देते हैं।
जीवनकी कुछ सच्चाईयाँ-
- एक महंगे मोबाइल फ़ोनके 70% आकर्षण हम उपयोग नहीं कर पाते।
- एक बहुत महंगी कारकी 70% रफ़्तार की हमें जरूरत नहीं है।
- एक आलीशान बंगलेका हम 70% उपयोग नहीं कर पाते।
- एक कपड़ोसे भरी अलमारी के 70% कपड़े हम नहीं पहन पाते।
- एक पूरी जिंदगी की कमाई का 70% हम दूसरोंके उपयोग के लिए छोड़ जाते हैं।
इसलिए हमजो 30% का उपभोग करते हैं, उसकापूर्ण उपयोग करें और इस में ही सीमित रहने
का प्रयास करें।
