Mother’s Love

A little boy came up to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was  fixing supper, and handed her a piece of  paper  that  he had been writing on. After his Mom dried her hands on an apron, she read it, and this is what it said:

For cutting the grass:  Rs.5.00
For cleaning up my room this week:  Rs.1.00

For going to the store for you:  Rs.1.00

Taking out the garbage:  Rs.1.00
For getting a good report card:  Rs.5.00
For cleaning up and raking the yard:  Rs.2.00
Total owed:  Rs.15.00

Well, his mother looked at him standing there, and the boy could see the memories flashing through her mind. She picked up the pen, turned over the paper he'd written on, and this is what she wrote:

For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me: No Charge 
For  all   the nights  that   I've sat  up with you,  doctored and prayed for you:  No Charge 
For all the trying times, and all the tears that you've caused through the years:  No Charge 
For all the nights that were filled with dread  and  for the worries I knew were ahead:    No Charge 
For the toys, food, clothes, and even wiping your nose:  No Charge 
Son, when you add it up, the cost of my love is:  No Charge.


When the boy finished reading what his mother had written, there were big  tears  in his eyes, and he looked straight at his mother and said, "Mom, I sure do love you." And  then he took the pen and  in great big letters he wrote: "PAID IN FULL".

Be the change you want to see in the world

In the world where the only constant is change, we have always been talking about changing the world and people around us. However, not all have realised that for change to take place, they must first change themselves. Do not seek without what we can find within. If we start out with the perception to change the world, then we would fail badly. But if we start by changing ourselves, the change in the world would come naturally and inevitable.

Release your burdens. Choose Joy.

Life is too important to be taken seriously. - Oscar Wilde

In the book of life, the answers aren't in the back. - Charles M. Schulz

Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

Take the weight of the world off your shoulders. Choose Joy.

Take time to sharpen the saw.

Take time to sharpen the saw. - Steven Covey If I had eight hours to chop down a tree,  I'd spend six hours sharpening my ax. - Abraham Lincoln While persistence and determination are important,planning, studying, and preparation are essential also.
