Getting beyond doubt

Doubt is nothing but a thought.
And you can choose to let go of any doubtful thought.
Doubt is merely a thought.
When experience proves it wrong, it will quickly go away.
The way to get beyond doubt is to take action.
Even a small positive step forward can begin to melt away a big, imposing doubt.
When you fight and strive against your doubt, it grows stronger.
Yet when you simply ignore that doubt, and take positive action, the doubt withers away to nothing.
Doubt exists in your mind. Put it out of your mind, and it has no place to live.
Fill your mind with positive thoughts, and your moments with positive, productive action.
And doubt will never hold you back.
Well on this note cya people have a great weekend ahead...Drive Safely & Be Happy...

dante vo dost
Gum ki ho dhup to saaya bane
tera vo dost...
Yaaron dosti badi hi haseen hai yeh na ho to kya phir
bolo yeh zindagi hai

One of my Fav Flowers

World's Highest Escalator

The Umeda Sky Building is the seventh-tallest building in Osaka City, Japan, and one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks. It consists of two 40-story towers that connect at their two uppermost stories, with bridges and an escalator crossing the wide atrium-like space in the center. The escalater ride is an event in itself as it feels like you are floating up into the sky. This is a cheap way to see the city, less than 10 USD to go up to the observation area. Located in the Umeda district of Kita-ku, the building was originally conceived in 1988 as the “City of Air” project, which planned to create four interconnected towers in northern Osaka. Eventually, practical considerations brought the number of towers down to two.

Below attached is the Pics of the Escalator...

A mischievous remark by Williams' Patrick Head has led to genuine speculation that Michael Schumacher might be limbering up to abandon retirement after just one year.
Team co-owner Head, whilst facing rumours that McLaren is preparing to launch a high priced bid for Nico Rosberg's services, suggested an alternative for the seat vacated by the now departed Fernando Alonso.
Head noted that McLaren is "in a position to offer very large salaries".
He also told the Mail on Sunday: "Ron Dennis has proved to be a lateral thinker, which is why I am musing over the idea that he might look to Schumacher.
"Michael's still fit - and probably bored. I suspect he has found sitting on the pit wall dull."
The German newspaper Bild-Zeitung reported Head's quotes by explaining that Schumacher in a 'Silver Arrows' would be "a dream for all German fans".
Former German F1 driver Hans-Joachim Stuck commented: "I can imagine that there are thoughts along those lines.
"Michael has everything: skill, fitness, and I am sure that he would beat (Lewis) Hamilton," he added.

KING OF FESTIVALS - DIWALI IS HERE...

WISH YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY & SAFE DIWALI.....

A Small input on why we celebrate Diwali...

Divali, or Deepavali (in Hindi - दिवाली or दीपावली), is a major Indian festival, significant in Hinduism , Jainism and Sikhism. Celebrated by Hindus,Jains and Sikhs across the globe, as the "Festival of Light," where the lights or lamps signify the uplighting of darkness and victory of good over the evil within.
The day also commemorated the homecoming of King Rama of Ayodhya, after a 14-year exile in the forest, and thus the people of Ayodhya (the capital of his kingdom) welcomed him back by lighting up rows of lamps (deepa-wali), thus its name, Deepawali, or simply shortened as Divali.
The celebrations focus on lights and lamps, particularly traditional dīpa or deeya (earthen lamp), and fireworks. Though colloquially called Divali in North India, in

South India it is called Deepavali.
Divali is celebrated for five consecutive days at the end of Hindu month of Ashwayuja (amanta). It usually occurs in October/November, and is one of the most popular and eagerly awaited festivals in India. Divali comes exactly twenty days after Dussehra. Hindus, Jains and Sikhs alike regard it as a celebration of life and use the occasion to strengthen family and social relationships. For Hindus it is one of the most important festivals, and beginning of the year in some Hindu calendars, especially in North India.
There are several beliefs regarding the origin of the holiday. The most repeated version is that Hindus celebrate Divali to mark the time when Lord Rama achieved victory over Ravana. Some also view it as the day Krishna defeated the demon Narakasura or in honor of the day Bali went to rule the nether-world, obeying the order of Vishnu.

"CTRL + ALT + DEL "

Have you ever thought of the person who invented
"CTRL + ALT + DEL keycombination.

He is the One who spent 1 minute and 23 seconds in writing the source code that rescues
The world's PC users for decades
This extraordinary IBM employee is retired on
25th March 2005 after a prolong service of 29 years.
His formula forces obstinate computers to restart
when they no longer follow other commands.
By 1980, Bradley was one of 12 people working to create the debut.
The engineers knew they had to design a simple
way to restart the computer
When it fails to respond the user Bradley wrote the code to make it work.
Bradley says. "I did a lot of other things than Ctrl-Alt-Delete, but I'm famous for that one.
"His fame and success is achieved each time a PC user fails.
He Commented His relationship with Bill gates by saying
"I may have invented it, but Bill gates made it famous by applying my formula
When ever any Microsoft's Windows operating system
made by him CRASHES,
Thus I win when ever he looses..........."

The Music of Language...

The Music of Language...
hey a nice peice of literature folks.. It s so amazing n so true.. Check it out...
When we speak or write, we use the vehicles of words to carry meaning, as well as energy, from ourselves to another person or group of people. We may be speaking to our baby, our boss, or to an audience of 500 people. We may be writing a love letter, a work-related memo, or an entry in our own diary. Whatever the case, each word we speak or write has a life of its own, a vibratory signature that creates waves in the same way that a note of music creates waves. And like musical notes, our words live in communities of other words and change in relation to the words that surround them. When we are conscious of the energy behind our words, we become capable of making beautiful music in the world. If we are unconscious of the power of words, we run the risk of creating a noisy disturbance. Some of us know this instinctively, while others come to this understanding slowly. Most of us, though, speak without thinking at least some of the time, blurting out our feelings and thoughts without much regard for the words we choose to express them. When we remind ourselves that our words have an impact on the world at the level of energy, we may find within ourselves the desire to be more aware of our use of language. A fun way to increase our sensitivity to the power of words is to simply make a list of our favorite words and notice the energy they contain. We can write them down and post them where we can see them, or we can speak them aloud, feeling them reverberate in our bodies and in the air around us. This is like learning to consciously play an instrument that we have been playing unconsciously for most of our lives, and the effect can be startling and delightful. As we grow more comfortable and confident playing the instrument of language, we will begin to compose beautiful messages, creating positive energy every time we write or speak.

Life is how you take it..

In the picture, just look at their condition..
no place to sleep, still they have made some space for d cat n d dog...
water poring from the roof but still each 1 of them have a peaceful smile on their face..
Simply amazing!!!!!
The happiest people in the world are not those who have no problems,
but those who learn to live with things that are less than perfect.
On this note... Have a nice day & a goodweekend ahead!!
