Lives at stake! Abortion in Nepal

There is perhaps no other issue people are divided over more than abortion. Be it social norms or religious affiliations, the issue challenges you to examine your beliefs and principles at the deepest human level. There is a question of personal responsibility and personal choice, but no matter where your conscience lies, when the economics of survival is concerned, is there really a choice? In Nepal , even before the abortion reform law was passed in 2002, the strict abortion laws with lengthy prison sentences didn't deter women, largely poor and illiterate, from seeking abortion. They instead risked their lives at the hands of sudenis, quacks and untrained nurses and doctors. Studies show that over 50 percent of Nepalis in rural areas are still unaware of the legalization of abortion even after five years of the reform law. Furthermore, women are still resorting to clandestine abortion due to economic hardship and lack of access to abortion services.
Present Law on Abortion in Nepal
Abortion is legal in Nepal on the following grounds:

Up to 12 weeks of gestation for any woman
Up to 18 weeks of gestation if pregnancy results from rape or incest
At any time during pregnancy, with the advice of a medical practitioner or if the physical or mental health or life of the pregnant woman is at risk or if the foetus is deformed and incompatible with life.
Abortion will be punishable on the following two conditions:
• Sex selective abortion
• Abortion without the consent of the pregnant woman

Rose Water How to Make Your Own

Rose water is used in cosmetics for its lovely scent, but also because it has light astringent properties. As the gentlest of all astringents, rose water is often used as toner for fair and dry skin.

Rose Water, Method

This recipe is the more traditional way to prepare rose water. Though it's a little more involved, its fun to do and the results are outstanding. You can make a quart of excellent-quality rose water in about 40 minutes. However, if you simmer the water too long, you will continue to produce distilled water but the rose essence will become diluted. Your rose water will smell more like plain distilled water, rather than the heavenly scent of roses.

Be sure you have a brick and heat-safe stainless steel or glass quart bowl ready before you begin.

Ingredients:

· 2-3 quarts fresh roses or rose petals

· water

· ice cubes or crushed ice

1. In the center of a large pot (the speckled blue canning pots are ideal) with an inverted lid (a rounded lid), place a fireplace brick. On top of the brick place the bowl. Put the roses in the pot; add enough flowers to reach the top of the brick. Pour in just enough water to cover the roses. The water should be just above the top of the brick.

2. Place the lid upside down on the pot. Turn on the stove and bring the water to a rolling boil, then lower heat to a slow steady simmer. As soon as the water begins to boil, toss two or three trays of ice cubes (or a bag of ice) on top of the lid.

3. You've now created a home still! As the water boils the steam rises, hits the top of the cold lid, and condenses. As it condenses it flows to the center of the lid and drops into the bowl. Every twenty minutes, quickly lift the lid and take out a tablespoon or two of the rose water. It's time to stop when you have between a pint and a quart of water that smells and tastes strongly like roses.

Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA)

People are spending a lot and it is good thing that people are spending on technology, education, health, communication and lifestyle but is it a good sign that they are doing all these in credit? Many times I have heard that people take loans to buy a car just because their neighbor bought a car, or a computer just for the sake of their kids. Now, is it really worth to be in debt even when it is not really necessary?

Nowadays, you can get a huge amount of credit from your credit cards and banks to fulfill each and every materialistic need of yours. But it is not only your unnecessary need fulfillment that runs you up in a large debt. There are many unexpected situation that you run into where a debt is really a necessity to get you out of the trouble. Unplanned building work, unexpected taxes, bills and fees, and forgotten birthdays and weddings and many others contributed to financial difficulties.

But what after you are in debt? What if you don’t have money to pay to your creditors? They will surely take you to the court and things will get more difficult after that. Now, here is when IVA comes in to play. IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) helps you to find your way out of debt. It is more than just some debt management programs. It runs over a 60 month period. What actually happens is that you write everything that you have coming in and everything that you have going out, a reasonable monthly plan is then agreed on and the company managing your IVA will then negotiate with your creditors. Once the repayment has been agreed upon everything becomes legal. But it’s not always that the negotiation is a success. Many people are seeking for IVA just to get rid of their debts easily. But IVAs are just for those who are really in need of help and who are unable to clear all their debts at once. The mail advantage that I saw with IVA is that the creditors often write off a lot of your debt. The arrangement is made in such a way that even if you haven’t fully paid off your loan amount once you have made repayments for 60 months you are free of debt. So, if you are really struggling with debt then IVA may be your only way out.

Pregnant? Eat apples and fish!

A new study has found that women who consume apple and fish during pregnancy may lessen the risk of their babies developing asthma or allergic diseases. The study, conducted at the University of Aberdeen, UK, found that pregnant women who ate the most apples were most likely to protect their children from asthma, as compared to children of mothers who had the lowest apple intake. The study also found that children of mothers who ate fish once or more a week were at a lesser risk of eczema than children of mothers who never ate fish. The study did not find any defensive outcome against asthma or allergic diseases from many other foods, including vegetables, fruit juice, citrus or kiwi fruit, whole grain products, fat from dairy products or margarine or other low-fat spreads.

How can I forget it?

After all the things that we did together, after all the time we spent together, after all the ups and downs in life now you want me to forget everything. How can I? Just tell me how? I dare you if only you can answer this from your heart I promise I will forget everything. I will forget that I had loved someone so truly. I will forget that I even met you. I will forget that you were once part of my life. I will forget that there is no such thing in this world like love. Love is just a lousy word which has no meaning in itself. All the people who think they love each other have to ask themselves if they find someone who they think is more beautiful and more caring than the one who is with you, will you still love him/her? Will you turn back and see what will happen to the one you loved so madly before you even know this person. The point in my case is not even that. I am left alone for someone who she has known just for merely twenty days, do you believe this? How can someone kill somebody’s feeling for somebody else in such a short period of time? And on top of that I never left anything behind to make her happy. She was one of the happiest people when she is around me. But I don’t know how she changed her mind in a day. I have realized now that the problem between us is that we are far from each other and she thinks that she doesn’t want long distance relationship. All I could ask is why? What’s with all the promises, all the tears which you shed for me, what about that? Was that just to get some sympathy and make me love you more till the time you don’t get somebody? Fuck you if that was what it is. I am never been hurt so badly in my life the way I am feeling now. Nothing has ever made me so frustrated in life than the thing you have done to me. I just couldn’t figure it out why? What was so bold reason? I just won’t believe if you say you are in love with this guy. That will be the big joke of your life. It’s not a love if you can hurt someone so badly who you loved crazily and create feeling for new person. Its not love if you can forget that easily. It’s definitely not…

Goodness of low calorie soup

Wondering how to stop all that calorie-rich food from going down your throat at mealtimes? Well, the answer is simple - start having low calorie soup. A study conducted by researchers at Penn State, US, has shown that people who have low calorie soup before a meal tend to reduce their total calorie intake by 20 percent, when compared to the times they did not eat soup. Julie Flood, doctoral student in nutritional sciences at Penn State and co-author of the research, said the work added weight to earlier studies on the subject. “Consuming a first course of low calorie soup in a variety of forms, can help with managing weight as is shown in this research and earlier studies. Using this strategy allows people to get an extra course at the meal while eating fewer total calories.”

Benefits of Water Birth

The Water Birth has finally made its foray into India . This form of delivering a baby is very safe, and results in less labour pain. During a Water Birth, a mother gives birth to her child in a pool or tub full of water. Parents who are considering this option need not worry - there is no chance of the baby's death due to asphyxiation or drowning.
Immersion in warm water raises the body temperature and causes the blood vessels to dilate, resulting in increased blood circulation. Thus, larger quantities of blood and oxygen are able to reach the uterine muscles. A water birth also allows a mother to manoeuvre her body during the labour process, with the water offsetting the pressure experienced during childbirth. The hydrostatic pressure of water relieves the discomforts of contractions and relaxes the body, which in turn stimulates the release of endorphins - the body's natural painkillers.

Fear

Every so often, it happens. Grace descends. Insight comes. Clarity pays a visit, and in a second we begin to make sense of all of this - our Life. The bigger picture reveals itself; one that extends beyond the limited world of me and mine. The blinders fall to the side. The lights go on. “Eureka!” we cry in relief. And then, as soon as it comes, it vanishes.

These moments of realization are bittersweet. Sweet because we are standing in the doorway of opportunity. Bitter because, so often, what we see is unpleasant: those qualities, tendencies, situations and relationships by which and in which we are sabotaging our self and others. It is far from pretty. Rather, it's downright u-g-l-y.
And lately this ugliness is everywhere I turn. The veil I hold over my eyes, the one that obscures and distorts my perception, has been lifting sporadically. In brief bouts of sobering clarity, I come face to face with a long time closet companion: Fear. Everywhere I turn, there it is. It's not that it has been hiding. It's simply that I never noticed so clearly until now how strongly it directs my life and plays into my decision making, relationships, and into my sense of self and worth.

Sleep Disorders

Insomnia is the inability to sleep for a reasonable amount of time to maintain adequate restfulness. It is the most common type of sleep disorder.
Insomnia is not defined by the total number of hours slept. Most adults require seven to eight hours of sleep a night, but some only need four or five.
According to the National Center on Sleep Disorders Research, about one in three American adults experience insomnia in a given year. About one in 10 American adults experience insomnia that is chronic or severe. Insomnia is more common among women (especially after menopause) and the elderly. About half of people over age 65 have frequent sleep problems.

Many conditions can cause insomnia. Some possible causes of insomnia include:
• Lifestyle factors (e.g., drinking caffeine or alcohol before bedtime)
• Medical conditions (e.g., peptic ulcers)
• Psychiatric conditions (e.g., depression)
• Medications (e.g., antidepressants)
• Symptoms of insomnia may include difficulty falling asleep, waking up frequently during the night, daytime drowsiness or irritability.

Many people visit their physician with complaints of insomnia. A review of their medical history, a physical examination and details of medications and lifestyle may help pinpoint the cause. Patients should also be evaluated for psychiatric conditions. They may be asked to keep a sleep diary to document sleep patterns and behaviors. In some cases, patients may be referred to a sleep center where sleep is analyzed by sleep disorder professionals. This is usually done to rule out other sleep disorders.
Several approaches may be used to treat insomnia, depending on its cause. Lifestyle changes, such as increased exercise or elimination of alcohol or caffeine, may help the condition. Sedative medications may also be prescribed, although they are not a long-term solution. Some forms of therapy, such as relaxation therapy, may help some patients Other sleep disorders (e.g., sleep apnea)

“Girlfriends are those who know the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.”

Nothing compares to the special bond that girlfriends share – you never get tired of laughing at silly jokes or watching romantic flicks. Shopping is your biggest weakness and gifts and chocolates can never be enough. You can discuss ‘boys' for endless hours and gossip about every girl in town with equal ease. You are happy when she succeeds and shed a tear when she fails. You may be distances apart but you always know that she will be there…Some of the best times and the most memorable events in life have been more special because they were shared with your girlfriend. We have been friends for over 10 years now and with each passing year I feel that we have understood and been there for each other much more than before. Our relationship has grown so strong that I feel it can withstand any trying time. However, things have not changed at all and I feel that this is the beauty of the relationship that girlfriends share. Even if we do not meet everyday or share a conversation on the telephone, I still know for sure that Beb will be there for me when I need her. We all have male friends with whom we share a cordial relationship but girlfriends will always remain special. Relationships change with time and so have ours. But we know for sure that even if the world turns around on us we will definitely stand by each other's side. Girlfriends will always be there when you need them the most. - Aashifa

Dressing up

Dressing up for special occasions sometimes consumes a lot of time and can get mind-boggling. Learning the basic principles of dressing up will help you develop a sense of style that best suits your body frame, clothing preference and personality.

Evaluate your body shape and follow these basic rules.

A-Frame dressing up

An A-frame body is one, which is narrower at the top half and wider at the lower hip and upper thigh area. The legs are usually heavier and shorter and weight gain is mostly in the upper thighs. Women with this kind of body shape should make their body look proportionate by widening the shoulders.

Recommendations
• Use shoulder pads.
• Show your legs to visually add height.
• Wear prints or patterns either all over or on the bottom only.
• Use thin, draped belts to imply a waist.
• Add to long vertical lines by using long accessories.

H-Frame dressing up

An H-frame body appears to be straight up and down. The legs are longer and thighs and belly are usually flat. The bust is average to large and weight gain is usually through the middle. This frame should be balanced by creating the illusion of a smaller waist. This can be accomplished by and belted waist or a straight garment like a chemise dress.

Recommendations

• Wear belts to imply your waist, but not too tightly.
• Avoid three-quarter length sleeves; they call attention to a lack of waist.
• Keep your neckline interesting; draw attention to your face.
• Keep clothing loose.
• Choose a bloused garment with a flared skirt

Review: Pingo.com

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is the latest trend in the market for national and international calls. STDs and ISTDs are out of fashion. It won’t be a wrong thing to say that VoIP or Internet calls have taken over phone booths and PCOs. This tremendous growth in the attraction and use of Internet calls is simply due to its widespread availability, reliability and less cost.

Anyways there are many VoIP companies selling internet phone card in the market, all claiming that they are the best in the business and service; that their card are the cheapest and the provide the most reliable service. So, there is a big confusion on which one should choose. The one I use is Pingo’s calling cards. It’s basically because I found it to be the best. There are lots of reasons for you to choose Pingo over others. The rates are the cheapest that I could find in today’s market, there are no hidden charges/fees, you get high quality calling cards at low cost and one key advantage is that their web based management system allows you to manage your calling card account online. So, there is no comparison of Pingo with others and that’s the reason I chose Pingo. And a good news is that you will receive up to 5 hours of free International calls just for signing up for Pingo. So, hurry up and sign up right away.

Think Positive, Be Positive!

If you have ever thought about why some people are successful in life and others live out their lives in failure. If you've ever wanted to be one of those people who live their dreams, the answer is at hand. One of the most important ingredients in the formula for success is the heartfelt belief that you can succeed. You must believe this because success is absolutely within your ability. It all begins, however, with your beliefs and your thoughts. Mind-body research clearly demonstrates that your thoughts have a powerful impact on your attitude, your health and your body. As a matter of fact, some say that our bodies are the physical result of our thoughts. In other words, you are what your thoughts are. But what are thoughts? Thoughts are actually electrical impulses that create biochemical reactions in the brain. These reactions release chemicals that impact every cell in your body. In that sense, the biochemistry of your body is the result of what you think. That is the very basis of mind-body medicine. Wherever a thought goes, a chemical follows.

Every thought you have activates a messenger molecule in your brain. In other words, every mental impulse automatically gets transformed into biological information. By changing your thoughts, you can literally change your body. That's why I always say that you can't change your weight until you change your mind. As a matter of fact, you can't change your life until you change your mind. It's always the thought that precedes the action. The changes that you need to make in order to succeed at weight management and healthy living or anything else are found from the neck up. Think positive thoughts, make healthier choices and your body will change – it can't help it.

You know how hard it is in today’s context to earn. I mean you got lots of other stuffs to do along with earning….if you are a student you have to go to college, if you are parents then you have to take care of your children, sometimes you are ill and can’t go to office. So, working for earning is just one part of the solution. I heard about vendstar and it’s Vendstar 3000, a vending machine and fell in love with it immediately.

Break the silence

The problem of child sexual abuse has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years. Media has reported numerous cases in which persons in positions of trust – fathers, relatives, day care providers, and founders of children's homes - have been accused (and in some cases convicted) of molesting children under their care. In addition, pedophiles have reportedly lured child victims into abusive situations. Such evidences state that the problem of child sexual abuse in Nepal is alarmingly serious. Child sexual abuse is any use of children for sexual gratification of adults or peers. According to UNICEF, it is the involvement of a child in sexual activity to which he or she is unable to give informed consent (may not fully comprehend), or for which the child is not developmentally prepared and cannot give consent, or which violates the laws or social taboos of society. Often children will say they are being abused, but in indirect ways. If you are getting a message from your child that makes you uncomfortable, look into the situation immediately. Physical signs of sexual abuse are not common. Any redness, rashes or swelling in the genital area, urinary tract infections or other such symptoms should be carefully investigated. Also, physical problems associated with anxiety, such as chronic stomach pain or headaches, may occur. Emotional and behavioral signals are more common. These can run from “too perfect” behavior, to withdrawal and depression, to unexplained anger and rebellion.

Remembrance of things past

The older I get the more precious my memories are. As a child I remember that I wished I was a boy and spent a lifetime wearing shorts, climbing trees and thinking that being a girl was such a nuisance. I learnt how to pee standing up and enjoyed sitting on a ledge and spitting at targets that came my way. If it came to a fight, I was the best at yanking out large clumps of hair …that was until my brothers discovered depositing chewing gum on my head was a great way to call it quits. My mother who never forgot I was a girl, used to braid my hair so tight that I could barely move my neck. Even bending over to read was a chore. While at school I found it difficult to concentrate because I was convinced that along with my hair, my two ears had also been yanked to meet at the back of my head. The super duper tight braiding also meant my cheeks were stretched too and I always had a blissful smile on my face. No one could guess my inner trauma. To reassure myself that my ears had not moved to a new geographic location, I would continuously feel the back of my head. My teachers misinterpreted these anxious movements and often thought that I was volunteering an answer to a question that had succeeded in confounding the entire class. Such was my plight. This was when I discovered that singing was a great way to distract my teachers and believe it or not, I made my debut as a singer, from the bathroom to the classroom at the tender age of nine.

Health Tips for Men

Reduce the amount of sugar you consume with your alcohol.

• The 2a.m. pig-out. Actually food is a good idea all round - before, during and immediately after drinking. Food doesn't absorb alcohol, but it does increase metabolism, activates alcohol absorption, and increases the speed with which the body processes alcohol.
• Coke - Fizz for the nausea, liquid for the dehydration, and a caffeine and sugar hit to make you feel a bit livelier.
• Coffee - Same as Coke but without the bubbles to help ease the nausea. Try it with honey instead of sugar.
• Aspirin - Simply attends to the headache and does nothing for the level of alcohol in your system. Don't take them before you go to bed.
• Bananas -. Bananas are also a natural antacid to help with the nausea, and are high in magnesium which can help relax those pounding blood vessels causing that hangover headache. For a variety of reasons try a peanut butter, honey and banana sandwich on white bread.
• Vitamin C - Another thing the alcohol takes out that you're advised to put back in as soon as possible: orange juice, tomato, a 600mg Vitamin C tablet - doesn't matter, just do it.
•A hot bath - The heat will sweat out the toxins that are causing all the problems. You'll feel a bit woozy at first but go with it and you'll feel better afterwards.

Bad breath cure

Brush your teeth in the morning, in the evening, and after every meal, especially after consuming milk products, fish and meat.

• Brush your tongue along with your teeth regularly.
• Wash the tongue with baking soda dissolved in warm water to reduce the acidity in your mouth making a less-friendly environment for the bacteria to grow.
• Brush and floss teeth regularly.
• Clean and replace your toothbrush regularly.
• Avoid mouthwash with dye and alcohol. Mouthwash containing cetylpyridinium chloride, chlorine dioxide, sodium chlorite or zinc may serve as an antibacterial agent, that can control the number of anaerobic bacteria in mouth.
• Parsley, coriander, basil, rosemary, thyme, wintergreen, cardamom seeds, cinnamon bark, clove, fennel or anise seeds are great breath fresheners. Slowly chew any of these herbs and allow the saliva to build up in your mouth.
• A recent study (2005) reported to the International Association for Dental research suggests that eating plain yogurt for six weeks can sweeten your breath because it reduces levels of offensive compounds produced by bacteria in the mouth by 80 percent. Rinse your mouth before sleeping with a glass of water with the juice of half a lemon added.
• Drink plenty of water throughout the day.
• Talk to your dentist about gum and teeth problems that might be the cause of bad breath.
• If you keep teeth, tongue and mouth clean, you will not suffer from the problem of bad breath. You should take all care in cleaning your teeth by using proper toothbrush and adopting correct brushing technique.

Get the ticket for your favorite game


I remember very clearly the last NBA game I watched with my friends. It was between LA Lakers and SA Spurs. Spurs won it but I don’t remember the plays because we were in such seats that we could hardly see the court. There was a big screen above but it was too difficult to look up all the time. And by the way, if I had to watch the game in a screen then I would have stayed home. I and my friends had hassled so much even to get that ticket though it wasn’t in the place where we wanted to be. But this time it’s not going to be like that. I now know about a Premium Seats USA which gets you the tickets for your favorite NFL, MLB, NBA or NHL team or any amazing concert ticket. There is no need of any nuisance. It provides a huge selection of first-class tickets to all concerts and games and theaters. And the seats are the one that you prefer. I am going to the next game of Dallas Cowboys and planning to get the ticket from as it has got the largest inventory of Dallas Cowboys tickets on the web. Hope you’ll also get your tickets from Premium Seats USA.

Apas

Seems like a lifetime ago, but it has been only a week since I have returned from a pilgrimage to Mount Kailash in Western Tibet. Magical would be an understatement. The expanse of the sky and endless plateau; the winds strong and unpredictable; the blazing sun, rocks of the most amazing colours and shapes, sand dunes and water… everywhere. Expanses of turquoise, pristine, holy lakes, flowing rivers, healing hot springs , ice, snow, rain...everywhere there was water, the manifestation of the fourth element apas . True to the meaning of its root ‘aap'- to pervade - in Tibet , it seemed to exist in its purest, unadulterated form, everywhere. In apas , also called jala, the energy of the element before it, agni is directed into a more cohesive and concrete form. Apas is the first manifestation of solidity, a liquid form, a half way between the two extremes of gas and solid. Apas is fluidity, and displays the qualities of coolness, smoothness, movement and adaptability. Just as easily calm as it is, it can turn turbulent Apas carries a dual nature and can conceal churning depths under an outer mask of composure and serenity. Do not be fooled though. The power of water is not to be gambled with; it takes life as swiftly and simply as it grants it.

Fitness

Assuming you're a morning person, a smart way to lose weight is to work out before breakfast. That's because when you don't give your body carbs, more of the calories you burn will come from fat stores.

• Most runners don't warm up as well as they could. Ideally, you want to warm up very slowly (about 60 percent of perceived exertion) for three minutes, then do three very quick intervals in a row - 20-second sprints separated by two minutes of easy jogging.
• To simulate outdoor running, set the treadmill incline to at least one percent. Running on a cardio machine set to a zero-percent grade is actually easier than running outdoors on flat ground because there's no wind resistance and less friction.
• Never run at a speed that you could walk. Studies of health club members have shown that treadmill runners experience less caloric burn and greater stress on their joints while running slow than when walking fast.
• For extra-sweaty feet or underarms, moisten black tea bags in warm water, and apply to the trouble spots for 20 minutes three times a week. The tannic acid calms sweat glands.
• Sprinkle Zeasorb powder in your funkiest sneakers. Unlike other foot powders, it doesn't contain cornstarch, which can act as free food for bacteria and fungus.

Talking about skin

Every one loves to look attractive and have healthy skin. If you really love your skin then make sure that you know these facts as mention below.

Sunbathing regularly which is considered good is in fact, damaging your skin. If you're a big sunbather, you should understand that you get wrinkles resulting a premature ageing. If you're a smoker, then you should know that, tobacco smoke dries out the surface of the skin leaving it dry and prone to wrinkling, it reduce the blood flow to the skin and reduce oxygen and essential nutrients. It depletes Vitamin ‘A’ which helps to protect the skin against damaging pollutants. And alcohol consumption causes blood vessels in the skin to widen, allowing more blood to flow close to the surface. That's why skin looks rosy, spotty and discolored for days. So, stop drinking alcohol instead drink plenty of water as we know water is easily lost through the skin. Drinking water is essential but not enough to replace the skin's natural radiance and glow that helps to look and feel healthy. We tend to link junk food to weight gain and heart disease but they also damage your skin... a poor diet leads to lack of nutrition and result in sallow, dull and sagging skin. Well to avoid this you can take food that helps to cut down on carbohydrates.

It’s really hard to imagine worse skin after spending a day frying in the sun, an evening drinking in a pub, and the trip home chomping a greasy fries. But hang on, heading to bed with heavy makeup on after an exotic day is unfair to the skin. Sometime it’s ok but don’t make it a habit as skin needs to breathe at night, which is impossible if it's plastered with part

Friendship forever

Friendship is not a game to play. It is not a word to say. It doesn't start on March and ends on May. It is tomorrow, yesterday, today and everyday. Moon said to me to leave your friend. Moon said to me that if your friend is not messaging you why don’t you leave your friend. I looked at moon and said does your sky ever leave you when you don’t shine. Age appears to be best in some things, old wood are best to burn, old books best to read, old rice best to eat and old friends best to keep God picked up a flower and dipped it in dew, lovingly touched it which turned into you, and the he gifted to me and said, “THIS FRIEND IS FOR YOU”. To live a life I need heartbeat, to have heartbeat I need a heart, to have heart I need happiness, to have happiness I need a friend, and for a friend I need you. Always true friends are like morning you cant have them the whole day, but u can be sure, they will be there when u wakeup tomorrow, next year and forever. Make 1000's friends, it’s not an achievement. Make 1000's friends in a year, still not an achievement. But an achievement is when you make a friend for 1000's of years. 6 rules to be happy: Free your heart from hatred; Free your mind from worries; Live simply; Expect less; Give more & Always have me as your friend. A friendship is like wine: it gets better as it grows older. Just like us... I get better, you get older. Everyone hears what you say... Friends listen to what you say... and true friends, they listen to what you don't say... by Aashifa

RHYTHM OF RAIN

Monsoon is the season of fun and frolic, staying indoors can be so mush fun- snuggling up in bed, sipping hot coffee, listening to the pitter-patter of the raindrops, watching your favorite movie, relishing hot pakodas, samosas and momos. Stepping outdoors can be equally enjoyable- bright colored raincoats and umbrellas, jumping around the puddles of water as if you were a Five/Six years old, walking hand in hand under the rainbow, feeling the caress of the raindrops on your face, dancing in the rhythm of the rain. I hated the Monsoons until a few years back, only because I hadn’t realized the wonderful things that I could do under the rains. And why fear if there’s an ugly downpour? If you keep smiling inside, the sun will surely smile back at you!!! Someday once said, ‘if you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right’. Really, it’s true!
