Things Could Be Worse
A mother enters her daughter's bedroom and sees a letter on the wall over the bed. With the worst premonition, she reads it, with trembling hands: It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm telling you that I eloped with my new boyfriend. I found real passion and he is so nice, with all his piercings and tattoos and his big motorcycle. But is not only that Mum, I'm pregnant and Anant said that we will be very happy in his trailer in the woods. He wants to have many more children with me and that's one of my dreams. I've learned that marijuana doesn't hurt anyone and we'll be growing it for us and his friends, who are providing us with all the cocaine and ecstasy we may want. In the meantime, we'll pray for the science to find the AIDS cure, for Anant to get better, he deserves it. Don't worry Mom, I'm 15 years old now and I know how to take care of myself. Some day I'll visit for you to know your grandchildren. Your daughter, Judith.
P.S.: Mum, it's not true. I'm at the neighbour's house. I just wanted to show you that there are worse things in life than my report card that's in the desk drawer.

Nice one.....Ha ha ha ha......
But in reality, this story also exposes the fragility of the super modern culture, the foolish vanity. |

hi sushmita here goes one more totally different but a nice one..hope everyone like it too
We can say that today we are so much used to the modern tools and facilities when
1. You accidentally enter your atm password on the microwave. 2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years. 3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3. 4. You e-mail your mate who works at the desk next to you. 5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends is that they do not have e-mail addresses. 6. When you go home after a long day at work you still answer the phone in a business manner. 7. When you make phone calls from home, you accidentally dial "0" or "9" to get an outside line. 8. You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies. 10. You learn about your redundancy on the 11 o'clock news. 11. Your boss doesn't have the ability to do your job. 12. Contractors out number permanent staff and are more likely to get long-service awards.
AND THE REAL CLINCHERS ARE... 13. You read this entire list, and kept nodding and smiling. 14. As you read this list, you think about forwarding it to your "friends". 15. You got this email from a friend that never talks to you anymore, except to send you jokes from the net. 16. You are too busy to notice there was no No. 9 17. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a No.9 18. AND NOW U R Laughing at your stupidity.

Read this poem and just thought of posting it out here. Some of you may be able to relate to some parts of this It really did touch my heart !
PENDULUM OF LIFE
When I was young, my only dream was To devote myself And I am still doing it today At the age of forty. I have enjoyed almost every Moment of my job. Not all the experiences were pleasant. I faced both realities And miracles. As a surgeon I have always healed Other's wounds, But never able to rejuvenate My own. I wasn't happy with my family Life. He never realized me. I guess we didn't put enough Effort to discover What true love meant For each other. Our marriage was just the Oscillation of the pendulum Of the clock Which stand next to the dining room, To me. I am gratified that my dream Became true. That's what I always wanted, My parents wanted. But now that I reflect back to my fulfilled Life What have I sucked out of life? I never paid attention to the sunshine Or the dawn. Or returning of the evening birds At their nests. Never found it interesting enough To make wished for the Shooting stars. Not even the moment of waking up by the Noise of mocking birds, Instead of my annoying morning Alarm. Or mom's hackneyed call for Breakfast. Never found it eloquent enough To get wet in the rain When my umbrella was in my backpack. But to me these weren't significant, In comparing to my ambition Of becoming a surgeon Until now, In this very moment When I question myself I fathom that my dream was not the only Credo of my life. Life is too short to miss out on Anything. I lost the connection with myself, With the people who cared for me, To whom I owe my life, My identity, My aspiration.

Hi Sushmita, The poem was really a nice one.It conveys the message very nicely.We often take our parents,their sacrifices for granted.We often are too engrossed in ourselves to care for their feelings and eventually find out that we also are not happy.A feeling of discontentment keeps haunting us.The bottomline,I guess, is to have a proper balance of everything.Life and the wonders offered by it are too dear to be missed.Thanks a lot for the wonderful poem. Cheers! |
