illusion 4

Take a look at the following picture , .... it is not animated. Your eyes are making it move. To test this, stare at one spot for a couple seconds and everything will stop moving. Or look at the black center of each circle and it will stop moving. But move your eyes to the next black center and the previous will move after you take your eyes away from it...:-)

The Wise Old Man

A man of 92 years, short, very well-presented, who takes great care in his appearance, is moving into an old people’s home today.
After waiting several hours in the retirement home lobby, he gently smiles as he is told that his room is ready.
His wife of 70 has recently died, and he is obliged to leave his home.
As he slowly walks to the elevator, using his cane, I describe his small room to him, including the sheet hung at the window which serves as a curtain.
"I like it very much", he says, with the enthusiasm of an 8 year old boy who has just been given a new puppy.
"M. Gagné, you haven’t even seen the room yet, hang on a moment, we are almost there. "
" That has nothing to do with it ", he replies.
" It is already decided in my mind that I like my room. It is a decision I take every morning when I wake up. "
" Happiness is something I choose in advance. Whether or not I like the room does not depend on the furniture, or the decor, rather it depends on how I decide to see it. "
" I can choose."
"I can spend my day in bed enumerating all the difficulties that I have with the parts of my body that no longer work very well, or I can get up and give thanks to heaven for those parts that are still in working order. "


" Every day is a gift, and as long as I can open my eyes, I will focus on the new day, and all the happy memories that I have built up during my life. "

" Old age is like a bank account. You withdraw in later life what you have deposited along the way. "

So, my advice to you is to deposit all the happiness you can in your bank account of memories...

How old is Grandma?

One evening a grandson was talking to his grandmother about current events...
The grandson asked his grandmother what she thought about the shootings at schools,
the computer age, and just things in general...

The Grandma replied, "Well, let me think a minute, I was born before television, penicillin, polio shots, frozen foods, Xerox, contact lenses and the pill...
There was no radar, credit cards, laser beams or ball-point pens...
Man had not invented air conditioners, dishwashers, clothes dryers and man hadn't yet walked on the moon...
Your Grandfather and I got married first and then lived together...
Every family had a father and a mother...
Until I was 25, I called every man older than I, 'Sir' and after I turned 25, I still called policemen and every man with a title, "Sir.'
We were before gay rights, computer dating, dual careers, daycare centers, and group therapy. Our lives were governed by good judgment and common sense...
We were taught to know the difference between right and wrong and to stand up and take responsibility for our actions...
Serving your country was a privilege...
Having a meaningful relationship meant getting along with your cousins...
Time sharing meant time the family spent together in the evenings and weekends,not purchasing condominiums.
We never heard of FM radios, tape decks, CDs, electric typewriters or guys wearing earrings...
We listened to the Prime Minister's speeches on our radios...
If you saw anything with 'Made in Japan ' on it, it was junk.
The term 'making out' referred to how you did on your school exam...
Pizza Hut, McDonald's, and instant coffee were unheard of...
Ice-cream cones, phone calls, rides on a tram and a coke were all less than 50 paisa...
In my day"grass" was mowed, "coke" was a cold drink, "pot" was something your mother cooked in and "rock music" was your grandmother's lullaby. "Aids" were helpers in the Principal's office, " chip" meant a piece of wood, "hardware" was found in a hardware store and "software" wasn't even a word.
And we were the last generation to actually believe that a lady needed a husband to have a baby...
No wonder people call us "old and confused" and say there is a generation gap...
and how old do you think I am?

I bet you have this old lady in mind...
you are in for a shock!


pretty scary if you think about it and pretty sad at the same time...

This Grandma would be only 55 years old....:-)

two days

There are two days about which we should not worry...two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension...
One of these days is Yesterday with all its mistakes and cares,its faults and blunders,its aches and pains.
Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control...
All the money in the world cannot bring back Yesterday...
We cannot undo a single act we performed...we cannot erase a single word we said...
Yesterday is gone forever...

The other day we should not worry about is Tomorrow with all its possible adversities,its burdens, its large promise and its poor performance...
Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control...
Tomorrow's sun will rise,either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds,but it will rise...
Until it does,we have no stake in Tomorrow,for it is yet to be born...

life..

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real...
dream of that special someone...
do what you want to do...
go where you want to go...
be what you want to be...
because you have only one life on this earth and one chance to do all the things you want to do...

time...

Son: "Daddy, may I ask you a question"
Daddy: "Yeah sure, what it is?"
Son: "Dad, how much do you make an hour?"
Daddy: "That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?"
Son: "I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?"
Daddy: "I make Rs. 500 an hour"
"Oh", the little boy replied, with his head down.
Looking up, he said, "Dad, may I please borrow Rs. 300?"
The father was furious, "if the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or other nonsense, then march yourself to your room and go to bed.
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door.
The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy's questions.
How dare he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think:"May be there was something he really needed to buy with thatRs. 300 and he really didn't ask for money very often!"
The man went to the door of little boy's room and opened the door."Are you asleep, son?" He asked.
"No daddy, I'm awake," replied the boy.
"I've been thinking, may be I was too hard on you earlier", said the man, "It's been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you.Here's the Rs.300 you asked for"
The little boy sat straight up, smiling "oh thank you dad!" .Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled some crippled up notes. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.
The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father.
"Why do you want money if you already had some?" the father grumbled.
"Because I didn't have enough, but now I do," the little boy replied.
"Daddy I have Rs. 500 now. Can I buy an hour of your time?Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you"

It's just a short reminder to all of you working so hard in life.
We should not let time slip through our fingers without having spent some time with those who really matter to us, those close to our hearts.
If we die tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days.
But the family & friends we leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives...
And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more into work than to our family...

i believe...

i believe . . . that we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change...

i believe . . . that my best friend and i can do anything or nothing and either way have the best time...

i believe . . . that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different...

i believe ...that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that...

i believe . . . that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel...

i believe . . . that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you , you will find the strength to help...

i believe . . . that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other... and just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do...

i believe . . . that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance...same goes for true love...

i believe . . . that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life...

i believe . . that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be...

i believe . . . that you should always leave loved ones with loving words...it may be the last time you see them...

i believe . . . that you can keep going long after you think you can't...

i believe . . . that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel...

i believe . . . that either you control your attitude or it controls you...

i believe . . . that heroes are the people who do what has to be done, when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences...

i believe . . . that money is a lousy way of keeping score...

i believe . . . that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up...

i believe . . . that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated...

i believe . . . that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others...sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself...

i believe . . . that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief...

i believe . . . that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become...

i believe . . . that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you...

an amazing hug....:-)
