Woman

email from Kamalini Kanapathippillai


WOMAN.....
● Changes her name
● Changes her home

● Leaves her family
● Moves in with you
● Builds a home with you
● Gets pregnant for you
● Pregnancy changes her body
● She gets fat
● Almost gives up in the labor room due to the unbearable pain of child birth
● Even the kids she delivers bear your name

Till the day she dies... everything she does... cooking, cleaning your house, taking care of your parents, bringing up your children, earning, advising you, ensuring you can be relaxed, maintaining all family relations, everything that benefit you..... sometimes at the cost of her own health, hobbies and beauty.

So who is really doing whom a favor?

Dear men, appreciate the women in your lives always, because it is not easy to be a woman.
Being a woman is priceless!!
Happy women's week!
Pass this to every woman in your contact to make her feel proud of herself.

A salute to ladies! 

WOMAN MEANS :-
W - WONDERFUL MOTHER
O - OUTSTANDING FRIEND
M - MARVELOUS DAUGHTER
A - ADORABLE SISTER
N - NICEST GIFT TO MEN FROM GOD

Pass to every man to know the value of women
                           &

Pass to every woman to feel proud!
Bless you!

Sri Lankan National anthem sung in Tamil


PS
As a student at Hartley College, Point Pedro, in the early 1950s we sang the National anthem, in Tamil. Those were the days, long before the love for the nation, was hijacked by the politicians for their own despicable ends.
Philip G V


"I did not on this day forget,
The bitter years of oppression and of evil
But in a blinding flash I understood,
It was not I but you, who suffered and waited,
No, I have forgotten nothing,
But even the dead and the victims,
Will rise from the grave at your call;
We will all rise, and not I alone.
Bitter,all-forgiving, bright-
My motherland with the wreath of thorns,
And the dark rainbow over your head...
I love you - I cannot otherwise -
And you and  I are one again as before"  

Poem written by Olga Berggolts, Russian Poetess imprisoned by Stalin earlier, and released to help fight the Nazi invaders in the 1940s. From '900 days - The siege of Leningrad' by Harrison Salisbury
