WHO OWNS KASHMIR ?
An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly that made the world community smile. A representative from India began:
'Before beginning my talk I want to tell you something about Rishi Kashyap of Kashmir, after whom Kashmir is named. When Rishi Kashyap struck a rock and it brought forth water, he thought,'What a good opportunity to have a bath.' He took off his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water. When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished. A Pakistani had stolen them.

Forgiveness
Why is it hard to forgive others?  Usually because we believe that they are 90% to blame for the problem, that I am not as bad as they are.  So I start to carry the load of other people's actions.  If I feel too hurt, I will have the sense of correction, of justice: 'I know I am right', 'That is not fair'.  But if I start to forgive from the heart, sincerely, then this kind of feeling and attitude begins to dissolve.  I remain humble and this forgiveness will bring me closer to others.  Then I do not carry regrets or anger, I just let go and remain light.

"Everybody Knows"

You can't be all things to all people.
You can't do all things at once.
You can't do all things equally well.
You can't do all things better than everyone else.
Your humanity is showing just like everyone else's.

So...

You have to find out who you are, and be that.
You have to decide what comes first and do that.
You have to discover your strengths, and use them.
You have to learn not to compete with others,
Because no one else is in the contest of "being you".

Then...

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by Holding up a Rupee 500 note.  In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this Rupee 500 note?"

Hands started going up. He said, "I am going to give this note to one of you But First let me do this."

He proceeded to crumple the note up.  He then asked, "Who still wants it?"

Still the hands were up in the air.
