We never get what we want, We never want what we get, We never have what we like, We never like what we have. And still we live & love. That's life... The best kind of friend, Is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, Never say a word, And then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had. It's true that we don't know What we've got until it's gone, But it's also true that we don't know What we've been missing until it arrives.. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; Just wait for it to grow in their heart, But if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, And a day to love someone, But it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile, Because it takes only a smile to Make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile! May you have Enough happiness to make you sweet, Enough trials to make you strong, Enough sorrow to keep you human, And enough hope to make you happy. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, It probably hurts the other person, too. The happiest of people Don't necessarily have the best of everything; They just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness lies for Those who cry, Those who hurt, Those who have searched, And those who have tried, For only they can appreciate the importance of people Who have touched their lives. When you were born, you were crying And everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, You're the one who is smiling And everyone around you is crying. Please send this message To those people who mean something to you, To those who have touched your life in one way or another, To those who make you smile when you really need it, To those that make you see the brighter side of things When you are really down, To those who you want to know That you appreciate their friendship. And if you don't, don't worry, Nothing bad will happen to you, You will just miss out on the opportunity to brighten someone's life with this message

Sayings - email from Dawood

[1]

Regular naps prevent old age,

especially if you take them while driving.

[2]

Having one child makes you a parent;

having two makes you  a referee.

[3]

Marriage is a relationship in which one person is always right;

and the other is the husband!

[4]

I believe we should all pay our tax with a smile.

I tried - but they wanted cash.

[5]

Marriage is give and take. 

You'd better give it to her or she'll take it anyway.

[6]

My wife and I always compromise.

I admit I'm wrong and she agrees with me.

[7]

It doesn't matter how often a married man changes his job,

he still ends up with the same boss.

[8]

Saving is the best thing.

Especially when your parents have done it for you.

[9]

Wise men talk because they have something to say;

fools talk because they feel they have to say something.

[10]

They call our language the mother tongue because the 

father seldom 

gets to speak!

[11]

Man : Is there any way for long life ?

Dr. : Get married.

Man : Will it help 

Dr : No , but then the thought of long life will never occur.

[12]

Why do couples hold hands during their wedding ?

It's a formality just like two boxers shaking hands  

before the fight begins !

[13]

Wife: Darling today is our anniversary, what should we do ?

 Husband: Let us stand in silence for 2 minutes.

[14]

It's funny when people discuss: Love Marriage vs Arranged marriage.

It's like asking someone, if suicide is better or being murdered.

[15]

There is only one perfect child in the world and every mother has it.

Subject: Should children witness childbirth?

This is well worth a read

Should children witness childbirth? A very good question indeed. Here's your answer. Due to a power outage, only one paramedic responded to the call. The house was very dark so the paramedic asked Kathleen, a 3-yr old girl to hold a flashlight high over her mommy so he could See while he helped deliver the baby... Very diligently, Kathleen did as she was asked. Heidi pushed And pushed and after a little while, Connor was born. The paramedic lifted him by his little feet and spanked him on his bottom. Connor began to cry.  The paramedic then thanked Kathleen for her help and asked the wide-eyed 3-yr old what she thought about what she had just witnessed.. Kathleen quickly responded, 'He shouldn't have crawled in there in the first place.....smack his ass again!'  If you don't laugh at this one, there's no hope for you.

A tourist camp in Africa -- You can tell that the guy was stunned by his experience.
This is a great video of the Silverback Gorilla and family coming into camp for a visit. Quite an unusual experience.


Not sure we could have stayed that calm.

No offense but I think this is really good!

An Indian and a Chinese entered a chocolate store. As they were busy looking, the Chinese stole 3 chocolate bars. As they left the store, the Chinese said to the Indian: "Man I'm the best thief, I stole 3 chocolates and no one saw me. You can't beat that."

Indian replied: "You want to see something better? Let's go back to the shop and I'll show you real stealing."

So they went to the counter and the Indian said to the shopkeeper: "Do you want to see magic ?" The shopkeeper replied: "Yes." The Indian said: "Give me one chocolate bar." The shopkeeper gave him one, and he ate it. The Indian asked for a second bar, and he ate that as well. He asked for the third, and finished that one too. The shopkeeper asked: "But where's the magic?"

The Indian replied: "Check in my friend's pocket, and you'll find all three bars of chocolate."

You just CAN'T beat an Indian!!
