True Kalyani, in hind sight one can see how things could have been different if only.... I guess that is what is called destiny , fate or whatever else ! I personally can quote so many small incidents where I went against my intuition and faced the consequences, at times you simply cannot decide which is the right course of action especially when there are too many opinions thrust on you !
It is an interesting article. It is true that everything in this world has a specific time and it should happen at that time. It seems that even if the circumstances are different, a set of internal programs influence the circumstances and re-organize the random events to make them happen at their destined moments. We call it destiny or the Law of the Universe.

Gulshanji, yesterday I returned from Abu Dhabi after a month. There are muslims, christians and Hindus there. There is however no comunial tension. As the hindus Christians accept suzerianity of Islam. But inIndia we always talk of comunial tension becuse majority communuty in India does not matter and minority is more important. Kindly think about it.

Quite an interesting post. The entire post made me awe inspiring. Especially bombing of Hiroshima caused by an error in interpretation.
Thank you Usha !!!

A vivid account of The Greatest Genocide in History. Muhummad Quasim Hindu Shah, the Muslim Historian was the first Historian to reveal to the world how the Hindus were slaughtered during Muslim invasion and occupation of India..
Let me use this opportunity to thank Kalyani for changing the trend of Discussion forums, which of late have become controversial political issues, making monotonous and boring. Earlier we used to post a variety of interesting posts like Word scrambling, Movies, Humour etc.
I request all the concerned to bring back the old practices and trends of this site

Bajirao answered the question What makes you good?.
I don't like to hurt anybody. whatever it takes to make others happy I try to do it, even if it is painful to me. I want others like my friends, family, etc to be happy, if they are not,I can feel the pain of others which makes me more sad.

Bajirao answered the question Is forgiving easy or forgetting?.
Being a human, both forgiving and forgetting is not easy, but trying to forgive someone and by forgetting the bad incident that happened to you is the only way to keep your mind healthy and will also keep your grudges away. Unless we don't forgive and forget, these grudges keep on accumulating and ultimately bad elements like jealousy, resentment, anger, etc start finding their way into our thoughts.

With any if but I am accepting that I am Hindu and believes in our Gods and Godess. Hindusim is oldest religion of the universe. It may be possible that it have some drawbacks. I respect my religion but I also don't disrespect other religions.

Cancer is world wide problem. Liver cancer, lungs cancer and throat cancer is very common in these days. Preacaution is better than cure. With some small things we can keep away to this killing disease. This article is helpful one.

Congratulation for quiting bad habit. With strong determination every thing is possible. Before 20 years I had habit of chewing tobacco, but quit it completely. Gulshan ji drink butter milk and barley sattu, best of luck.

Quitting alcohol needs determination and will. I must say you have lot of determination.
I have seen many people completely stopped drinking either due to fear of getting dreadful disease or sudden change without any reason.. But yes you are right it changes your life and make you a different person.
